Allu Arjun’s interesting New Movie Name

Well, even after taking a film that deals with female concern, we have named “Pink” as “Vakeel Saab” in Telugu, and that’s how hero-worshipping goes here. But then, few actors like Pawan Kalyan and Jr NTR sometimes decide to break it up as they have come up with titles like Attarintiki Daredi and Aravinda Sametha earlier. Looks like even Allu Arjun is also breaking the stereotypes now.

A hot rumour has emerged in film circles on Tuesday morning that the title of the film #AA20, Allu Arjun‘s next directed by Sukumar, is none other than “Pushpa”. Though “Seshachalam” is the working title in consideration for this movie from time, it is heard that director Sukumar wants to give the film’s title a feminine spin as the whole story revolves around the death of hero’s wife, to be played by Rashmika Mandanna.

Whether there is truth in this or not, Allu Arjun’s fans are amused by this title as they are not yet ready to accept such feminine titles for their hero’s movies. But then, in case if this is true, that will set new standards when it comes to naming films where our filmmakers are not any more concerned about using adjectives and superlatives that focus on hero’s bravery.

Samantha is preparing a series of videos to be released very soon

Somewhere around March 24th, queen bee Samantha shared that her dog Hash and hubby Chaitanya are enjoying, and four days later she thanked everyone for winning Critics Choice Award for Oh Baby. Since then, the actress went dead silent on Instagram, leaving her fans in a shocker.

When it comes to using social media to the core, it is Samantha who taught the world how to do it. In Tollywood, she is known for her regular updates regarding fashion, food, workouts and other stuff on her Instagram page. And during the lockdown period, actually, many expected that she will storm the social media with her day to day, minute to minute updates. But then, it looks like the actress gave a break to social media during the quarantine.

However, some people close to the actress felt that Samantha is actually preparing a series of videos to be released very soon on her social media handles. They are explaining that this is the usual calm before the storm, but the actress will explode on social media in a couple of days time. Anyway, her fans are quite pained by her absence on social media as there is no post from her regarding Sunday evening light-up call given by PM Modi.

On the other hand, there is a buzz that Samantha’s newfound business, Ekam Learning, a playschool for kids, lost all the craze it created due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Maybe the actress is working on things as to how they should get the craze back for the school once the lockdown is lifted.

Narendra Modi’s video message to the nation lacked solutions to issues, kamal Hassan

Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) chief Kamal Haasan on Friday lamented Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s video message to the nation lacked solutions to issues, including economy and ‘shortage’ of personal protection equipment, arising out of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The actor-politician, who had welcomed the Janta curfew call given by Modi earlier, said he had high expectations from his address to the nation.

In his televised short address, Modi urged people to switch off lights in their homes at 9 pm for nine minutes on April 5 and light up lamps, candles, mobile flashlights to display the nation’s collective spirit to defeat the coronavirus.

“I had high expectations when it was said the Prime Minister was going to talk… (and it would be on) solutions to the shortage of protection equipment, free supply of essential commodities, the livelihood of the poor, future economic measures etc,” Haasan said in a tweet.

“But he is coming (referring) only today to the torch light which we had taken in our hands a long time ago,” he said in an apparent reference to his party’s symbol of battery torchlight.

A Man wiping his dripping nose and mouth with currency notes

Recently a video started doing rounds on social media, where a middle-aged Muslim man could be seen calling abuses at people of other religions, and then wiping his dripping nose and mouth with currency notes. Later he asked his fellow members of the religion to distribute such notes among public such that they could wage holy war on infidels.

Identifying that the man is none other than Sayyed Jameel (aged 40) from Nashik and has uploaded the first video on TikTok, immediately Maharashtra police have swung into action. Under sections 153 and 188 of the India Penal Code, police have arrested him from Malegaon near Nashik. Any calls to spread coronavirus by any person in India is not only illegal but attracts huge punishments too.

While police confirmed that the man is in police custody, right now netizens are worried if he is a COVID-19 negative or positive case. And then, rumours are spreading about if some people might have got inspired by his call and started soiling the notes already. These is something police and authorities should give clarity about as no one knows how long coronavirus could live on each surface.
