Tollywood Stars gear up for Big-releases - Exclusive
Entertainment will have no bounds in the Telugu film industry in 2013, as an exciting mix of star-studded films are getting lined up to hit the theatres.
Be it Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun or Jr.NTR all these actors managed to do only one film in 2012. They will all hope to work faster and release as many films as possible in this year. Mahesh has signed two new films and hopes to finish and release both within the year. Likewise, Pawan Kalyan also hopes to work on multiple projects to save time.
Ram Charan will be seen in three films in 2013.
His most ambitious film "Naayak", directed by V.V. Vinayak and "Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu", another big budget multi-starrer with Mahesh Babu and Victory Venkatesh in the lead, will lock horns on the same day Jan 11.
Two other films of Ram are Telugu action-drama "Yevadu" and Hindi-Telugu bilingual "Zanjeer", a remake of Amitabh Bachchan's super hit film of the same name.
"Leading heroes will continue doing films with a predefined formula because it is safe and a rapidly growing trend in Bollywood too," said Telugu director Madhura Sreedhar.
Jr. NTR will be seen in "Baadshah", directed by Srinu Vaitla, in the summer of next year. And Venkatesh will been as a don in crime-thriller "Shadow", directed by Meher Ramesh.
Some other Telugu films to look forward to in 2013 are "Mirchi", "Auto Nagar Surya", "Bhai", "Balupu" and "Gouravam".
Meanwhile, Bollywood will continue to cash in on regional remakes, feels Srinivasan.
"The number of remakes is sure to increase this year. Bollywood will continue to cash in on regional films, both in Tamil and Telugu, as most remakes of the recent past did exceptionally good business. Most of these films comfortably made it to the Rs.100-crore club", he said.
Let's hope Tollywood Stars live up to audiences expectations in 2013 delivering good hits.
