Can Anushka sustain in top position?


Anushka Shetty is certainly the top actresses of Tollywood with the right blend of beauty and acting skills. Though the actress had several flop films in her initial career, it was ‘Arundhati’ and ‘Vedam’ films that showcased her talent and made her reach the top position.
But there is always a growing competition among the heroines in Tollywood. Apart from Anushka, other hot ladies of Tollywood, Ileana, Kajal Agarwal, Samantha and Tapsee are fighting for the top position by bagging projects opposite biggies.
Though Anushka is in the top position, she cannot act opposite today’s young heroes like Jr.NTR, Ram Charan, Naga Chaitanya, Allu Arjun, Ram etc.. since the actress looks quite elder to them. Instead she is perfect match to senior heroes Venkatesh, Bala Krishna, Nagarjuna, Ravi Teja and goes well with Prabhas, Pawan Kalyan and Mahesh too.
With senior heroes hardly signing one or two films per year, the chances for Anushka might decline in the coming years. While her competitive actresses of Tollywood are less than 25 years, Anushka has recently crossed 28 which is another threatening factor for the lady. On the other hand, the Kollywood chances too are moving away as most of the leading heroes of Kollywood are too short when compared to her height. Her plus point of beauty has worked negative to the lady in Kollywood.
Her recent films in the second half of 2010, Khaleja with Mahesh Babu failed at the Box-Office and the latest release Nagavalli too is receiving below average talk. Many who saw Nagavalli film, opined that Anushka looked as an aged lady in the film and she needs to concentrate more on her beauty. ‘Ragada’ film is yet to hit the silver screens and we can analyze her performance in the film only after its release.
With many such issues, let’s wait to see how long the lady of luck smiles at Anushka!

Prepared for any consequence

The police officials of the rank of DCP met Mr Naidu for five times and requested him to cooperate and withdraw his hunger strike. First of all, the police officials evinced no interest to take an initiative in the matter. The team of doctors headed by the Director of Heath also requested the fasting leader to call off his hunger strike keeping in view his health condition, but the fasting leader bluntly rejected the suggestions. The government, which had moral responsibility to take care of the Leader of Opposition was forced to arrest of Mr Naidu and shifting him to the hospital. She also made it clear that police behaved most respectfully towards Mr Naidu while they took him into custody in the early hours of Monday.

“If he was sincere on the welfare of the farmers, Mr Naidu should withdraw his hunger strike and cooperate with the government and ensure that the benefits of announced package reached every farmer in the rain-hit areas. Similarly, I also appeal to the functionaries of Opposition parties to extend cooperation in this regard”, the Home Minister said.

She also observed that though the government may not reimburse total loss suffered by the farmers, it has announced best package to extend maximum benefits to the distressed farmers. She pointed out that the Congress government responded immediately whenever the farmers faced problems in the last six years.

With force, Naidu Arrested and shifted to NIMS




Hyderabad, Dec 20: With force Chandrababu Naidu was arrested and shifted to Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) after his health condition deteriorated.

It was a heavy drama, Police have stratergically started moved TDP supporters and leaders away from CBN.First they arrested TDP MLA Revanth Reddy, then CBN's son Lokesh was removed from Babu. Later Police lifted Babu and took him to NIMS hospital though CBN resisted.

Mr. Naidu's blood sugar level dropped to 61 mg/dl and ketone bodies concentration increased forcing the Government to act as there was danger of ‘hypoglycaemia' and ‘ketoacidosis' setting in leading to impairment of vital organs.

He was to be shifted by midnight but the police which was in full strength at the New MLA Quarters where he had been fasting for the last three days, was waiting for the right time to initiate action fearing resistance from TDP cadre. After getting wind of the impending police action, TDP legislators and workers surrounded Mr. Naidu on the dais. They kept chanting slogans deriding the Chief Minister, N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, and Congress for not doing anything for the farmers and not allowing Mr. Naidu to continue the fast.

Tension prevailed owing to heavy police bandobust outside the quarters and slogan shouting cadre inside. Around 10 p.m. police closed the gates of the MLA Quarters and did not allow anyone to enter the premises for over an hour. On the other hand, arrangements were made at NIMS to receive Mr. Naidu.

TDP sources indicated that even if Mr. Naidu was shifted to NIMS, he would continue the fast there and consider the option of calling for a bandh tomorrow.

Though Mr. Naidu looked normal on Sunday morning even practising yoga, there was a steady decline in his condition by evening. At midnight he looked pale and dazed and went to the toilet with help. But he developed a bit of uneasiness as the day progressed and was lying down most of the day. A team of senior doctors examined him and after seeing test reports expressed concern over the falling blood sugar level which could impact the functioning of liver, kidney and heart if the fast continued.
