Priyamani to make Telugu OTT debut with web movie ‘Bhamakalapam’

Telugu OTT platform Aha is coming up with a web original movie – ‘Bhamakalapam’ – starring Priyamani. The movie’s first-look poster was launched on Wednesday.

The film marks the Telugu OTT debut of the popular actress who shot to fame in the digital space with ‘The Family Man’.

Captioned ‘a delicious home-cooked thriller’, ‘Bhamakalapam’ is directed by Abhimanyu Tadimeti, of ‘Dear Comrade’ fame, with filmmaker Bharat Kamma as the showrunner.

The first-look poster has Priyamani as a homemaker in an avatar resembling Goddess Durga and her various dimensions in a typical household. She’s simultaneously holding a knife, a basket, a plate of biryani, a broom, an egg and a pooja-room bell while peeping into something as if she’s holding binoculars in her hand.

The poster, highlighted with different hues across the kitchen, hints that the lead character is a woman of many shades and can tackle any crisis that comes her way. What does destiny have in store for her?

Justin Prabhakaran, the composer of films like ‘Radhe Shyam’, and ‘Dear Comrade’, is scoring the music for this film. Sudheer Edara and Bogavalli Bapineedu have bankrolled the project under SVCC Digital. Cinematographer Deepak Kumar has cranked the camera, while Viplav is the editor.

The streaming platform Aha also has an impressive line up of movies and shows, including ‘The American Dream’ which is releasing on January 14. Aha’s talk show, ‘Unstoppable’, hosted by actor Nandamuri Balakrishna has been rated the No. 1 talk show on IMDB as well.

Chahhat Khanna on ‘grey hair’: It’s beautiful which trolls don’t have the vision to see

‘Qubool Hai’ actress Chahhat Khanna says it’s easy for trolls and mockers to sit back behind the screen and put out their so-called opinion on anything.

Trolls have been hitting out at Chahhat for her grey hair and her single mother status.

Chahhat says: “I am a single mother and it takes guts of steel to be a mother let alone a single mother who is fending for herself and her family. That exactly was not grey hair and it looked like that as it was a mirror image and at an angle but even if it was, there is nothing bad in having grey hair. It’s natural and it has to be beautiful that way. The trolls won’t be able to say it on the face.”

“It’s only behind the screen that they hide and put out their filthy opinion out there. I have developed a thick skin to these. But the heart goes out to the young and the vulnerable who might get affected due to these. There has to be a measure where we nab these individuals and make the internet a safe and happier place for all individuals. And as for the grey hair, it’s damn beautiful which the trolls might not have the vision to see. Tell me what’s the novelty of being a troll,” she adds.
