Bigg Boss Telugu 9: Nagarjuna’s Whopping ₹30 Crore Remuneration Revealed | Sept 7 Premiere

The buzz around Bigg Boss Telugu 9 is heating up, and the countdown has officially begun. The reality show, which has already completed eight successful seasons, is all set to premiere its ninth edition on September 7, 2025.

Once again, Akkineni Nagarjuna will take the hosting chair, marking his sixth consecutive season as Bigg Boss Telugu’s anchor. While fans are excited for the drama inside the house, there’s also a lot of chatter about Nagarjuna’s remuneration for the season — and the numbers are jaw-dropping.

According to reports, the King of Tollywood is set to earn a staggering ₹30 crores for hosting the three-month-long reality show. Interestingly, this is the same ballpark figure he reportedly charged for previous seasons as well.

The Telugu version of Bigg Boss began in 2017, with Jr NTR hosting the first season, followed by Nani for Season 2. From Season 3 onwards, Nagarjuna has been the face of the show, which continues to maintain strong TRP ratings.

This time, the makers are promising bigger surprises, stricter rules, and brand-new tasks. Some older concepts, like the secret room and re-entry, are expected to be dropped in favor of fresh challenges to keep the audience hooked.

With a massive paycheck, a fresh format, and high anticipation, Bigg Boss Telugu 9 is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about reality shows of 2025.

Naga Vamsi Urges Fans to Make War 2 Telugu Version Bigger Than Hindi

Tollywood producer Naga Vamsi stole the spotlight at the grand pre-release event of War 2, the highly anticipated action spy thriller starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR. The massive celebration took place in Hyderabad on Sunday evening, drawing thousands of ecstatic fans.

Speaking to the crowd, Naga Vamsi — who is presenting the film’s Telugu version — assured Tarak’s fans that director Ayan Mukerji has crafted the movie to feel like a true Telugu film.

“You will definitely love the movie. You guys scold me a lot — and you can scold me as much as you want if you don’t like War 2. But you must make sure the Telugu version collects more than the Hindi version,” he said, sparking loud cheers.

Looking at the overwhelming fan frenzy, Naga Vamsi joked that it felt like Telugu cinema was welcoming Hrithik Roshan more than sending NTR to Hindi cinema. He added, “NTR Anna has raised his collar for us many times. Now it’s our turn to make War 2 a massive blockbuster and raise our collar for him.”

Also starring Kiara Advani, War 2 is produced by Aditya Chopra under the prestigious Yash Raj Films banner. The film is set for a worldwide release on August 14, 2025.

Netizens Troll Ravi Teja’s ‘Ole Ole’ Song from Mass Jathara for Vulgar Lyrics

Ravi Teja’s “Ole Ole” Faces Backlash: Netizens Slam Song for Vulgar Lyrics

While folk music often resonates deeply with regional audiences, Ravi Teja’s latest song “Ole Ole” from Mass Jathara has found itself at the center of a heated debate. Composed by Bheems Ceciroleo and penned by Bhaskar Yadav Dasari, the song has drawn sharp criticism online for its allegedly vulgar and inappropriate lyrics.

Lines like “Nee amma, Nee Ayya, Nee akka, Nee Chelli, Nee Ollokochi Panta” have particularly drawn fire. Netizens argue that such language crosses the line of decency, even under the guise of folk authenticity. The backlash has been swift, with social media users calling for responsible songwriting—especially when such tracks reach massive audiences.

Despite previous successful folk hits like Dhanda Kadiyal and Jinthak Chitak, this latest attempt at Uttarandhra-style folk seems to have backfired. As of now, the makers have not issued any statement addressing the controversy.

Directed by Bhanu Bhogavarapu, Mass Jathara stars Ravi Teja and Sreeleela and is set to release on August 27, during Vinayaka Chavithi.

In a move that confirms one of the most talked-about box office battles of 2025, Balakrishna’s much-awaited Akhanda 2 is officially releasing on September 25, the same day as Pawan Kalyan’s high-octane action film OG, directed by Sujeeth.

Rumors had previously suggested that Akhanda 2 might shift its date to avoid a clash. But now, with dubbing wrapped and post-production nearing completion, the makers have locked in the date and are gearing up for an aggressive promotional campaign.

Balakrishna Wraps Dubbing

Their statement reads: “GOD OF MASSES Nandamuri Balakrishna completes dubbing for Akhanda 2. The duo is set to deliver a 4X BLOCKBUSTER. The Thaandavam is going to be massive, beyond your imagination.”

 Post-Production in Full Swing

From CGI and background score to final mixing, all technical work is proceeding simultaneously, with the first copy expected within three weeks. Once locked, the makers plan to launch a massive promotional campaign leading up to the release.

 Cast & Crew Highlights

  • Balakrishna returns in his fierce avatar

  • Boyapati Srinu helms the direction

  • Pragya Jaiswal and Samyukta Menon play the female leads

  • Aadhi Pinisetty is cast as the antagonist

OG, a stylish gangster drama by Sujeeth, has been building strong buzz, setting the stage for a dual festival of mass action. While both films cater to massive fanbases, it remains to be seen which one will dominate the box office. Akhanda 2’s release confirmation has made things official — a titanic clash is coming to theatres this September 25. With two megastars, two massive productions, and one single day, Tollywood is about to witness fireworks.

Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9: Nagarjuna’s Massive ₹30 Crore Pay & New Rules Revealed

Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9: Nagarjuna’s ₹30 Crore Remuneration & Major Format Shakeups

The wait is almost over — Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 is set to hit screens on September 7, and the buzz is already sky-high.

Akkineni Nagarjuna, who has hosted the reality show since Season 3, is returning once again — and this time, his paycheck is turning heads. According to industry sources, Nagarjuna is charging a whopping ₹30 crore for hosting Season 9, matching his fee from previous years. Given the show’s massive success and TRP ratings, Star Maa seems willing to pay top dollar to retain his commanding presence.

 Bigg Boss Journey So Far

  • Season 1: Hosted by NTR

  • Season 2: Hosted by Nani

  • Season 3–8: Hosted by Nagarjuna

The reality series, which began in 2017, has grown into a television phenomenon. While contestants earn lakhs per week, winners walk away with around ₹50 lakh in prize money plus other brand-sponsored rewards.

 What’s New in Season 9?

This year, the makers are shaking things up. Insiders reveal:

  • New rules to keep contestants on edge

  • Revamped task structure for higher drama

  • Old gimmicks like the secret room and re-entry are reportedly being retired

  • Fresh faces and surprise wildcard entries expected mid-season

The production team is reportedly putting extra effort into tightening the gameplay and ensuring more raw drama than ever before.

 Why Nagarjuna’s Pay is Justified

Hosting Bigg Boss isn’t a walk in the park. The job spans over three months, with weekly live shoots, intense public interactions, and immense pressure to drive TRPs. Nagarjuna brings star power, emotional balance, and charisma — crucial for a show that thrives on controversy and confrontation.

Final Word

With Bigg Boss Telugu 9 set to launch in early September and Nagarjuna commanding a ₹30 crore paycheck, expectations are sky-high. From format shakeups to unexpected twists, this could be one of the most unpredictable and dramatic seasons yet.

Stay tuned — the countdown has begun!

Court Telugu Film Gets Tamil Remake: Thyagarajan & Prashanth Team Up

Court Tamil Remake: Prashanth Returns, Thyagarajan Directs

Earlier this year, Court: State Vs Nobody was released in Telugu with little fanfare. Starring Priyadarshi as a junior lawyer taking on a sensitive POCSO case, the film relied on strong word of mouth to pull off something rare—turn a small-budget courtroom drama into a ₹60 crore global grosser.

Backed by Nani’s Wall Poster Cinema, Court went from sleeper hit to streaming sensation, especially after dubbed versions hit OTT platforms. Nani himself called it the production house’s most profitable venture yet.

Now, the story is heading to Tamil.

Veteran actor-director Thyagarajan has officially acquired the Tamil remake rights. The film is currently in pre-production, with his son Prashanth set to take on the lead role, marking his comeback after The G.O.A.T.. Reports suggest that Thyagarajan may even reprise the role played by Sai Kumar in the Telugu version, potentially reuniting with Prashanth on-screen after years.

The remake will be co-directed by Thyagarajan and producer 5 Star Kathiresan, known for his successful films in the 2000s. Adding to the buzz are new-gen actors — Krithik (Kathiresan’s son) and Iniya (daughter of actress Devayani), who are likely to play key supporting roles.

However, the industry knows the truth: remakes don’t always land, especially now that audiences can easily access dubbed originals. The challenge? Preserving the soul of the Telugu version while adapting it meaningfully for the Tamil audience.

Will this remake break the mold or simply ride on the original’s coattails? Either way, with real-life father-son chemistry and some strategic casting, the Tamil Court might just carve out its own identity.

Su From So Telugu Review: A Rural Horror Comedy with Mixed Results

Su From So Telugu Review: Familiar Formula with Fleeting Fun

Rating: 2.75/5

Su From So, directed by debutant JP Thuminad and produced by Raj B Shetty, arrives in Telugu after a Kannada run. Set in the fictional village of Marlur, the story blends light horror, humour, and a hint of social commentary. It revolves around Ashok (JP Thuminad), believed to be possessed by a ghost named Sulochana. Ravanna (Shaneel Gautham) steps in to investigate, uncovering a trail that leads to a nearby village.

The village setting is authentic, and the humour—though region-specific—clicks at times. Shaneel Gautham gives a measured performance, carrying much of the film’s emotional and narrative weight.

However, the story treads a predictable path. The horror elements are underdeveloped, and the film’s attempt to deliver a deeper message falters due to a weak screenplay and scattered focus. Ashok, supposedly the lead, is sidelined, while too many supporting characters dilute the narrative.

Technically, the cinematography by S. Chandrasekaran captures the village well, and the music by Sandeep Thulasidas complements the tone. Editing could’ve been tighter, especially in the sluggish first half.

Verdict:
Su From So offers a few laughs and decent performances, especially from Shaneel Gautham, but lacks the spark to stand out. With horror too mild and comedy too familiar, it ends up being a forgettable watch, more resonant in its original Kannada context than in its Telugu form.

Rajinikanth’s Coolie Creates History Even Before Release – Massive Advance Bookings, Record Buzz

Superstar Rajinikanth’s next film, Coolie, is generating unprecedented hype ahead of its theatrical release on August 14, 2025. With bookings already in full swing, the film is smashing records across the board, especially in Kerala, where thousands of tickets sold out within minutes. Some theatres are even scheduling early morning shows to meet demand.

The buzz isn’t solely about the legendary actor. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, known for his gritty, action-heavy storytelling, Coolie features a star-studded cast including Nagarjuna, Aamir Khan, Upendra, and Pooja Hegde, who stuns in a viral dance number that’s already topping charts.

Despite a trailer that stirred mixed reactions, expectations remain sky-high. In Tamil Nadu, trade circles are already forecasting record-breaking box office numbers, with some expecting the film to surpass all-time opening records.

The marketing campaign is relentless—Coolie ads are featured on metro trains, Amazon delivery packages, and street banners across major cities. Promotions are set to continue aggressively until release day.

Even though War 2 has secured most IMAX and premium screens across India, Coolie is still projected to make a massive ₹150 crore+ opening, with potential for more if reviews and audience word-of-mouth align positively.

With Rajinikanth’s unmatched fanbase, Lokesh Kanagaraj’s action vision, and a festival atmosphere brewing, Coolie is not just a film—it’s a cinematic event in the making.
