Court rejects Narco test pill on Jagan

CBI court today dismissed CBI's Narco test pill on Jagan and Vijay Sai Reddy.


CBI court stated, there is no necessary to use Narco test, you can interrogate Jagan Mohan and Vijay Sai when ever you needed, as they are obiding to law. However, narco test is a death threaten. It can take lives.


There is no guarantee that only truths would be revealed and by going through guide lines of Supreme Court and Human Rights Commission, Narco test has been not labelled as safe and should not be used in any case.


Hence we cannot give you permission for Narco analysis. Court went on to add, its life threatening test, if any mistake happens and if one of them is dead, what will happen to case. So, we rule out this petition.


All the hardwork of Jagan's lawyers paid out as they have kept every minute incidents of false in Narco test in front of Judge. 


So, as of now, Jagan is out of Narco test and he also drafted a bail plea in supreme court, this plea would come to hearing by the end of July and he may get bail next month.


Today in the afternoon, he asked permission to vote in presidential elections to be held on July 19. He appealed to CBI court today and this will come to hearing tomorrow. Sources say, he might be granted to vote and stay out for atleast a day or two. If harsh found then he might be given time for official hours of 9 to 5.


Earlier Election Commission said, it has no problems for allowing Jagan to vote, but cannot intervene in court matters. So, Jagan appealed in CBI Court. Will update you with further proceedings.

Vamsi in TDP only

He was the only one to cause major ruckus in TDP, when he infront of huge gathering met Jagan and expressed pleasant wishes. The crowd were sound struck. TDP supreme Chandra Babu was thundered.


In Vijaywada, Vallabhaneni Vamsi Mohan met Jagan during his yatra in a mammoth meeting organized by Vangaveti Radha as he was joining in YSRCP. This was struck down by Chandra babu and he even went to give a pink slip to Vamsi. But later turned down.


After many speculations, TDP MLA Kodali Nani has come out last week and met Y S Vijayamma, though he hasn't quit TDP, but said he is supporting YS JAGAN. Now, his close aid Vamsi gave yet another shock.


He today in press meet said, he is in TDP and will be in TDP. Media can write whatever they want, but i am in TDP only. Its sad, Nani went out, party will look into it. 


He concluded his meet very fast and said just few words about Nani and no words about Jagan. There raises questions for many observers, will Vamsi be in TDP till 2014 or will change his base just in 2014, so that it can be a plus for him. As of now, Vamsi is a TDP leader and will be a TDP leader.

Kodali Nani evades from TDP

Kodali Nani, TDP MLA from Gudivada has finally said it quits for TDP... He was on different par with TDP prez Chandra Babu Naidu, for quite some time.


After the smashing victory of YSRC in recent elections, Nani said to his followers about joining in YSRC. He is a 2 time MLA from Gudivada constituency. Nani's evacuation is a strong blow for TDP as he is one of the strong candidates for TDP in Krishna.


Apparently, Gudivada is a home constituency for TDP, TDP founder Late NTR's home yard is Gudivada. And, TDP never lost in this constituency.


There were reports that, Nani would join YSRC as he was irritated with Chandra Babu behaviour. Chandra Babu wanted Nandamuri Bala Krishna, son of NTR to participate as MLA from Gudivada constituency in 2014 elections, which Nani was against.


Chandra Babu assured that he would be made to stand from one of the Vijaywada constituency. Which Nani opposed. As it was sure Nani wouldn't get any chance of standing in Gudivada, he decided to stand on YSRC.


Today morning around 10:15 A.M., he met Y S Vijayamma in YSRC office and discussed with her about his joining in party. Later, at 10:45, TDP suspended Nani from party.


Around 1, Nani met YSRC president Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy in Chanchalguda Jail and discussed about his stand. He was accompanied by M.P. Mekapati Rajmohan Reddy and also Vijaywada leader Vangaveti Radha.


It is unclear weather Vallabhaneni Vamsi Mohan would join YSRC or not. As he was the first one to met Jagan in front of huge gathering in Vijaywada. 


This is the first evacuation after by-polls in state, will this give any rise or chance to other leaders in state. Will see.....

EEGA---- Extremely Energetic Gracious Attempt

Well S.S. Rajamouli is a name which doesn't need any introduction. After his Mammoth success of Maghadeera, he has done Maryada Ramana, a small budget movie, which again proved S.S. Rajamouli command. When he started Eega and said I would release in a year, every one were sure of another hit. But, EEGA slowly postponed... Finally after 2 years and 125 days of Audio release, it has hit on screens. Lets see, how it fares....

Presented ---- D. Suresh Babu



Banner ----- Vaarahi Chitram


Cast ---- Nani, Samantha, Sudeep, Aditya Menon, Shekar, Srinivas Reddy, Tagubothu Ramesh, EEGA


Music ---- M.M. Keeravani


DOP ---- Senthil Kumar


Producer ---- Sai Korrapati


Story, Screenplay, Direction ---- S.S. RAJAMOULI




What's the Plot: EEGA, well the plot is quite known, Rajamouli said on many occasions, well here is the plot... Bindu(Samantha) is a miniature artist and also runs a  Non Profit organization Project 511 forsake of poor children. Nani(Nani) is a neighbor and has longing for Bindu. He is in love, though one sided for her almost 2 years. Bindu enjoys the attention and doesn't say about her love. 


Sudeep(Sudeep) is a business tycoon, who has like for all super hot girls. He eyes Samantha. And gives away huge amount for her organization. She feels happy, but nani wins her  attention and slowly she responds. Sudeep knows this and kills Nani..


Nani soon is reborn into Eega... And Eega starts mission kill. Eega irritates Sudeep, and tries to kill him... It also conveys that he is Nani, he was killed by Sudeep to Bindu... The rest of story is all about Eega killing Sudeep. Will Eega kill sudeep. Who is aagora.. Will he kill eega forms story..


High Fives: 


The first and foremost is 


CGI - Without which it would be a duck.... CGI shots were very impressive. It makes movie nothing less than a treat.


Story, Screenplay and Direction.

Lead character performance


Eega, Sudeep fights


The big ducks:


Hardly any minuses here. Though, Nani should have been shown a bit. But was okay. The love story should have been made much closer.... The love story was short and less sweet. A time of another 5 to 10 min would have made it very interesting.


Performances:


The performaces to be commented are Sudeep, Nani and Samantha. Sudeep is an extraordinary actor. He has done his role perfect. His character had lot of variations. He should be an aggressive villain first, then romantic and then aggressive... Variations were held very well.


Nani, he was in brief role. He is replacing the lover boy performers. He is charming. He did his part very well.


Samantha, she is a four cinema old. Where all four were blockbusters. Though YMC had much character. Dookudu had very limited opp to perform for her.... But she has done Bindu role to perfection. As usual Chinmayi dubbed for her and she was very good. Lead pair looked good.


Srinivas Reddy was used in un-useful role. His role was very small. He should have been used to a part.


Tagubothu Ramesh appears in a cameo and he has done his role good.


Sound, Action, Cut departments:


M.M. Keeravani has given outstanding tunes for this film. What he should be really commended is. The back ground music, he has been examplery. Fantastic. Eega doesn't speak. But Eega's actions were very well projected out by Background score.


DOP is an asset. Its a CGI mixed movie. So, DOP must be in parallel with it and he has done good job. Senthil Kumar is DOP.


S.S. Rajamouli. I can't say about this man. Mind blowing. That's it.


The final take:


EEGA has made Tollywood proud. This movie is far from any Indian movie which worked on CGI effects. Ra.One stands next to EEGA. Infact EEGA cannot be compared to Ra.One. EEGA is truly a master piece.


That was all in technical Stuff.


I would say, EEGA is Extremely adventurous. Full marks to EEGA team. I rate it with 4.15 out 5...


U will enjoy every bit....


OFFBEAT:


At the end, EEGA does Chiru's Veena step and Jr.NTR's Yamadonga step and also behaves like Mahesh in movie. Pokiri scene, where Mahesh uses his hand and water falls from behind(introduction song). Ofcourse, many not feel that though. I felt that it was Mahesh's action.

Teri Meri Kahaani Review

Teri Meri Kahaani is directed by Kunal Kohli. The director of Fanaa. A critical as well as public acclaimed film. Hum Tum was another melodious hit for him. It was his come back and now  he is making re-entry as writer cum director after 4 years.


TERI MERI KAHAANI


Cast - Shahid Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Prachi Desai, Neha Sharma


Music - Sajid- wajid


Written and Directed by Kunal Kohli


Produced by Sunil Lulla and others




CENTRAL PLOT: 


TMK starts off with 1960 back drop, as it was said, fall in love upon thrice. Shahid coming to Bombay from Pune junction to be a music director. He accidently steps into cabin of Priyanka Chopra, who is a renowned actress. Rukhsar, character portrayed by her..


Meanwhile, Govind and Rukhsar feel they are in close after some situations in train. Upon reaching bombay, Govind meets Radhika (Prachi Desai), a neighbor of Govind in Bombay. Misinterprets happen and Rukhsar and Radhika are none but sisters. Soon, story shifts to the modern version. 2012


2012 love story is set up in England. Where Krish is in relationship with Meera(Neha Sharma), relationship which is surviving on ventilator. Krish meanwhile breaks up and accidentally meets Radha (Priyanka). After hiccups, both enjoy the night by roaming England on Krish birthday occasion. Soon after reciprocating in love, both depart for some former relationship of Krish.


Then the story moves to the oldest version of 1910. Javed is a street smart guy, who charms away with his sheiris and is in search of nothing less than fun. He meets up Aaradhana and falls for her... In trying to win her heart, he lands up in Jail. After some normal run, love buds, but Aaradhana gets married before Javed comes out.


What happens to  all three love stories, will they ever meet. Will Rukhsar convince Radhika? Meera leaves Krish? Javed forgets Aaradhana?


Watch on Screen...


High Five:


1. Shahid's presence and performance.
2. Priyanka performance as Radha.
3. Shahid's Javed role and poems.
4. Music
5. 1910 love story.


Weak Links:


Frankly, one would expect there should be no weakies as Shahid would have taken care after debacle of Mausam.


Priyanka in 1910 was alright, but still in some scenes, she was overdoomed. Confusion of character names. Unconvincing scenes. 


When a star comes to meet some persons in a hotel, she doesn't dance. No police stands as scum when there is a huge romance song going in barracks. 


If you think, those should be left as it was movie. The next scenes concentrate on the things which I have spoken above.


Performances:


Shahid Kapoor who has been transformed from a lone smiler to Serious actor is commendable. He shows his strength here. 


This script demanded three variations, and he done it with ease. The chaplin go way in 1960 suited him and ofcourse the 2012 would set definitely as he is given some hanky panky uber cool dress. 


1910 street charmer is also a wonder. He executed his role to perfection. He has done, what he has too. The rest cast should have helped him much to make this movie go huge.


Priyanka Chopra, no doubts she is good actor. Acting goes waste when the plot of the character is not strong. That's exactly what happened. 1960 role of Rukhsar failed to impress. She portrays fear, irritated, happy, love, afraid all in single go, which is confusing.


Costumes in 1910 should have been more realisitic. Wavery kind of more she is.


Neha Sharma and Prachi Desai done roles very neatly. Though screen appearance of both are very less.


Other departments:


The movie is kind of direct lift from a Taiwanese film, Three times. Where the stages are 1911, 1960 and 2006. Though, many don't know and don't consider this, but it hovers.


Music is very interesting.. Back ground music also enlightens and makes very interesting. However, Screenplay flatters. The problem is, shallow explanation of love stories. Roughly set of 120 minutes. Director should have taken another 20 minutes and carefully trace 1960 and 1910 love stories. 2012 although was very common and not necessary required much explanation.


Editing was crisp and DOP was good.


Bottom Line:


Teri Meri Kahaani is a thrice upon love story where you really don't fall in love thrice.


A weak soul and  shallow story film.


I rate it 3 out 5.



JD call list is now in High Court

Anyone guessing who is the non political person who is making in News consistently now a days is CBI Joint Director V V Laxminarayana. He has been in lime light from the arrest of Galli Janardhan Reddy.


He is one of the busiest official now in state, he is investigating in Obulapuram Mining Case, Emaar MGF case and Jagan's DA case. A year ago, not many knew about this man. But as soon as he was involved with Jagan's DA case investigating, he has been quite popular.


Though, there were no allegations laid on this man, when he started investigating. Slowly, allegations started to flow on him. Though one section of media commended his work, the other degraded his work. There were severe allegations on him on leaving the period of 1999-2004 in investigating Emaar-MGF case. 


Jagan Mohan Reddy lashed out against CBI everytime in a public meeting. He made clear that CBI is acting according to Congress directions. And people believed it. The main reason why people started to believe is the articles which were published in Eenadu and Andhra Jyothi paper. Yes, as soon as CBI started to act, it was something like both these papers knew and published ahead.


Which made people feel that CBI is acting like Congress wants and TDP is also involved. Sakshi went on ahead and made up their mind saying it was a Padmavyuh....


Recently, CBI J.D. Laxminarayana's call list has been made popular. YSRCP leaders have released a list where he contacted or was by TV reporters. The high light was made by Chandrabala. She, was alleged with a conspiracy created along with ABN Andhra Jyothy M.D. R.K.


When her call list was released, this three people were in regular touch, they used to call each other and messages were also sent were the popular allegations led by YSRCP leaders. 


After this, Chandra bala clarified in couple of interviews and she approached Police, with in hours CBI J.D. also approached Police with involving many sections. But the twist in tale was the petition which was drafted by a Lawyer Bhushan Bhavanam from Guntur.


He filed a petition in high court about the Call list. He made point of, what is the necessary to get into contact with media people consistently and constantly when you were doing your duty and how come the two papers printed matter which happened in a close room. If they are wrong, why none of CBI team have commented on that. Why are you giving away information to only selected persons or media.


Responding to this points, High court went furious over Laxminarayana and asked answer. He  has to respond by July 9 to this petition. Court also added, "When you are doing duty and which involves high profile persons, how can you leak information. Why have you done hundreds of calls to selected media persons. What is the interest in it."


Well, all eyes on this as how Laxminarayana will respond to the questions put by Court. Well, CBI J.D. who questions most of his time, has now got to answer... Bottom line, Duty misfired....
