Homam has completed its shoot and is in the process of re-recording work. This film Homam has a speciality of one hero directing the other hero.
JD Chakravarthy who was once a crazy star is now coming up with different attitudes. That is, he is debuting as a director through Homam as well as appearing as a villain on the screen. This is really a challenging job for him.
“Jagapathi Babu is one of those heroes who had not stuck to any particular image. The role that he portrayed in this film is entirely different from his previous ones. We are planning to release the audio this week-end and also release the film in this month end.” says the producer K. Kiran Kumar who is producing the film on the banner of Sreya Productions.
While Mamata Mohandas is the lead lady of this film, Saakshi Shivanand will appear in a special song.

Pawan Kalyan confirms that his PULI will be an action thriller
Power star Pawan Kalyan has confirmed that his next film PULI will be an action packed comedy thriller. He also added that his dual role in the film will be very much liked by the youth. He also brushed aside the rumors which are mingling in the media that Kareena Kapoor will be roped in to play one of the female leads in the movie. But said that he has a unfulfilled desire to act with the sexy and gorgeous beauty Kareena Kapoor.
Again he confirmed that he has not proposed nor even given any kind of diamond gift to anyone. On his political entry Pawan diplomatically said that he will not enter into politics directly, but will be behind his brother and will always be ready to render his help. Pawan also took the opportunity to speak about his faded Common man’s force.
When he was projected with a question that is the force still alive and is it going to exist forever, Pawan replied that the force is still prevailing and has already helped almost 15 people so far. But the fact is, when a women socialite approached the so called common man’s force, she was denied of any kind of help as the kind of help she was asking was against his brother’s dignity.Presently Pawan is busy in preparing for the film PULI.
PURI JAGANNATH sidelined Sanjana
SANJANA, who is playing second fiddle in Bujjigadu – Made in Chennai
is eagerly awaiting the audience's response for her performance in the film, which is set for release in the third week of May. The girl, who is known to the Telugu audience for her sizzling performance in Mogudu Pellam O Boyfriend, is said to have done a lot of skin show in Bujjigadu. She seems to be treading the familiar path to success. Well, whatever be it, the film's publicity posters show only PRABHAS and TRISHA. The director, PURI JAGANNATH, seems to have sidelined Sanjana completely. Or is it a deliberate act by Puri, who has reserved her performance for the audience for only on-screen. With the heat on, Sanjana's performance may ensure the mercury to go up a little further!
Parugu Movie Review
Elder daughter of Neelakanta's escape on her nuptial day. Her lover's friends are beaten and locked up to reveal the couple's whereabouts by Neelakanta's men. Now the story twist starts, our hero Krishna is one among them, who was dragged into the matter where he has no clue. When they get a chance to escape, but Krishna doesn't because he sees a girl in the mist and falls in love with her.
Krishna starts searching for the girl and unknowningly asks help of this girl(Meena) to get his mysterious girl. Interestingly this girl(Meena) happens to be Neelakanta's younger daughter. She is the one who communicates with the guys without seeing them. While the search for one eloped pair is on, Krishna makes Meena fall in love with him, and run-off with her while Neelakanta is in turmoil state
Screenplay and Direction:
The subject mainly deals on eloping. Parugu lives up to it's name, and runs throughout it's length. Leaving indirect expressions aside, the movie itself is entertaining, has enough doses to enjoy and appreciate. Bhaskar seems to be understanding father-son, father-daughter relationship, and deals the subject smoothly. He chooses a different storyline, there are some glitches, but minor ones will not interrupt the story in any way. It is one of those movies that come into the category of family entertainment, and that itself is highly appreciated, as there seem to be a dearth of such movies now-a-days
Performance:
Allu Arjun does a good job, and plays the character of Krishna. A good improvement about his acting from movie to movie. Shiela is an unexpected choice for this movie choosed by director-producer, not being quite established or glam, but the movie required someone like this so it makes sense.
Prakashraj has the key role, which he does with elan, especially in the second half where a crucial sequence shows the soft interior in the tough and angry exterior of his character. There are striking similarities with his character in Bommarillu though. Subbaraju as his brother is good. Srinivasa Reddy, Suneel, Chitram Sreenu as Krishna's friends add to the humor element. Jayasudha in a brief cameo and Poonam Bajwa as Subbalaxmi make their presence felt.
Dance in the songs are no great shakes compare to Arjun's previous movies Aarya and Desamuduru, but the music used in the background is well in the movie
On the whole, it is a good narration and a strong subject, with some humor and music added in good measure. It may not be up to Bommarillu's standards because of lack of freshness in the subject.
