Telugu filmmaker Harish S Shankar on Saturday released the poster of his upcoming romance-drama ‘Prema Katha’, directed by Shivshakti Red De, who is also known for his films such as ‘Subramanyam for Sale’, ‘Gabbar Singh’, ‘Ramayya Vasthavayya’ and ‘DJ: Duvvada Jagannadham’, among others, announced the launch of his film on his X handle and wrote: “Happy to launch the first look of this exciting & intriguing love story ~ #PremaKatha. Congratulations and best wishes to the whole team.”
The poster shows a young couple sitting aside from each other as they are afraid to speak. While this sounds typical enough, there is a man at the very top with a bandage on his head and a bruise on his face, staring at the couple, giving stalker vibes.

CinemaWhile some say it is for business reasons, others believe it is to bring in more variety into the industry.Anjana ShekarIn Mohanlal’s Malayalam thriller Big Brother, actor Arbaaz Khan, best known for his role in the Hindi film Dabangg (a film that he also produced) played Vedantham Ips. In his blockbuster Lucifer, it was Vivek Oberoi who was the villain challenging him.

Film ReviewOverall, as a pure Telugu movie, Gg is not stunning, not heart-wrenching and not thrilling either.Krishna SripadaBefore I go breathless with what could have been or should have been, let me get the disclaimer out. Gaddalakonda Ganesh is the Telugu remake of the Tamil film Jigarthanda, which doesn't cater to the sensibilities of a fan. If Jigarthanda is Ms Subbulakshmi rendering Suprabhatam, this movie is Beyonce belting out something the former's fans wouldn't really relate to. The focus is different, and it would be a disservice to let the spectre of Jigarthanda hang over what should otherwise be an objective review of this Telugu movie. Gaddalakonda Ganesh, henceforth referred to as Gg, is a risky movie with an attempt to make the protagonist Varun Tej look scary. So the makers of Gg gave him a crazy hairstyle, a bone-dry beard and a menacing scar to boot.. Varun Tej...
