Nagarjuna as Manmadhudu
Nagarjuna
is all set to strike back with vengeance. He is doing movies selectively
and making sure that he is concentrating on one Telugu film at a time.
Right now, Durga Arts film 'Santosham' is being canned in Satyam computers
compound at Medchel, which is located 20 kilometers from the Hyderabad
city. This film would be released some time in April. The enviable combination
of Sreya and Gracy Singh are paired up apposite the charmer of Charminar
'Nagarjuna'. His next venture is going to be 'Manmadhudu' by Annapurna
Studios. Annapurna Studios stopped producing films for a few years.
Now they had roped in Vijaya Bhaskar, who has blockbusters like Nuvve
Kavali and Nuvvu Naaku Nachav to reckon with. The dream technical team
of Vijaya Bhaskar is working over finalizing script. Vijaya Bhaskar
is in Mumbai now to supervise the post-production progress of Hindi
version of 'Nuvve Kavali'. 'Manmadhudu' will go on floors in April 2002.
With this film Nagarjuna is living up to his off screen reputation.
What do you say? Jayant to make another film with Mahesh Babu
Mahesh Babu announced that he would do another film for Jayant again
during the shooting of Takkari Donga. But the project would start a
little ahead of what even Jayant expected it to. Mahesh Babu postponed
the projects on his home banners by Surya and Trivikram Srinivas to
accommodate Jayant. Mahesh is doing RK associates film in the direction
of Sobhan Babu at present. He will do MS Raju's 'Okkadu' to be directed
by Guna Sekhar from March onwards. Jayant's film on the banner of JFC
(Jayant Fulcrum Synergies production no. 2) will start on Dasara of
2002. Even Takkari Donga's muhurtam was held for Dasara 2000. This time
Jayant is back in love-story business. This film is going to be love
story. Paruchuri brothers are giving story and dialogues.
