'Nagarjuna is a land grabber'

In a surprising development, Telugu Desam Party on Tuesday made a scathing attack on film hero Nagarjuna for campaigning for Lok Satta in the GHMC elections.

TDP MLAs P Kesav and P Revanth Reddy described Nagarjuna as a big land grabber. They pointed out that Nagarjuna had encroached upon 16 acres of Gurukul Trust lands at Madhapur worth crores of rupees and got them regularised using his good offices with former chief minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy. In return, the hero had done a few promotional advertisement films for the Congress government before elections, obviously to benefit the ruling party.

“Now, he is doing campaign for Lok Satta. How can Jayaprakash Narayan, who cries from the roof top about money and caste power, utilise the services of Nagarjuna in the campaign?” they asked. The TDP leaders challenged the Lok Satta to verify the accounts of the TDP and prove illegal collection of party funds. “He has no stature to compete with our party president N Chandrababu Naidu. We are enough to answer all his queries,” they said.

Dhoni & Boys With Beer And Babes In Hyderabad!!!

The fifth one day match between India and Australia at Hyderabad was a crucial one since the teams were leveled 2-2. However, despite the valiant 175 knock by Sachin Tendulkar, the team could not score victory of 17 runs in 17 balls with 4 wickets in hand. Now, here is more to the woes.

According to the noted Mid-Day newspaper, just hours after the match, Dhoni and his young gang were seen unwinding at a party. Pictures of that are now splashing all across and interestingly, Dhoni is seen all smiles with pretty girls while Praveen Kumar was smoking away to glory.

The others such as Sehwag, Ravindra Jadeja, Harbhajan, Ashish Nehra were also clicked and few of them were sporting glasses of beer and wine. This has been drawing a sharp criticism from many corners and if the news is true then it is a shame that Team India and that too M S Dhoni has been setting such sort of examples. Well, partying is not wrong but is it right in celebrating when a prestigious and crucial series is going off hand? What say MSD???

People even wrote that I am taking Nayanthara to Bollywood, which is totally untrue," said Prabhu Deva. Prabhu Deva categorically denied any plans of making a sequel to the Blockbuster film, Wanted. "Though the film is a big hit, it is not that easy to start a sequel to any subject. Where is the script for the new film? Moreover Salman is extremely busy with three projects, all of which are under production. But I am not totally ruling out the possibility of making another film in Bollywood. It's just that it may take a long time before that happens," he said.
