    Nani ahead of Akhil in advance bookings

    Nani ahead of Akhil in advance bookings

    This week it will be Natural star Nani and Akkineni Akhil who are going to vie at the box office when their upcoming films MCA and Hello hit the screens on successive days ( 21st and 22nd). Nani is coming from back to back box office hits and Akhil will face a litmus test as Hello is billed as his relaunch after the debut outing misfired badly.

    While Akhil is promoting the film aggressively, Nani is purely banking on his success track for good openings. In terms of market and pre release buzz, Hello has a slight edge over MCA. Surprisingly, it is Nani who is ahead of Akhil in terms of advance bookings. MCA is generating good bookings than Hello in all major areas for which advance bookings are opened.

    Both films are getting good screen count in Telugu states and Overseas. So, it would be interesting to see which film will emerge as winner at the box office.

    MCA is directed by Venu Sriram and Hello has Vikram Kumar at the helm.

    Hello Audio Review – Mellowed Musings

    Hello Audio Review

    Hello is an upcoming romantic action entertainer starring Akkineni Akhil and Kalyani Priyadarshan in lead roles. Music for the film is composed by Anoop Rubens and the film is directed by Vikram Kumar who gave memorable films such as Manam and 24 earlier. The album has released yesterday in the breezy city Vizag and here is an exclusive audio roundup:

    Song 1: Hello
    Singer: Arman Malik
    Lyrics: Vanamali, Shreshta

    Hello is an interesting composition with relaxed acoustic guitars, and breezy strings along with impressive lyrics by Vanamali and Shreshta. This is a tailor made song for a competent singer like Armaan Malik who is known for soothing melodies. The song has a hummable instinct to it and an air of expressive breeziness fused with contemporary Rap.

    Song 2: Anaganaga Oka Uru
    Singer: Sri Dhruthi
    Lyrics: Chandrabose

    Ananganaga Oka Ooru is a storytelling styled composition carrying an air of innocence and swiftness. Chandrabose’s lyrics are quite appealing and at the same time doesn’t reveal much about the story. Sri Dhruti’s sweet vocals are amazingly sweet and lovely to hear! A very special mention should be made for violin which takes the front seat in style and poise. The composition oscillates between Carnatic raagas Suddha Dhanyasi and eerie Nata Bhairavi in effortless ease.

    Song 3: Thalachi Thalachi
    Singer: Haricharan
    Lyrics: Vanamali

    It is time for a melancholic melody which is such a strong base of Anoop Rubens and swiftly it comes in the form of Thalachi Thalachi. Haricharan excels in this philosophically driven romantic number and the harmonic minor scale is quite evident throughout the song. A big applause of Vanamali’s lyrics which strike an impressive chord. The mixed feelings of longing, worry and eventually hope are beautifully presented in this song.

    Song 4: Yevevo
    Singers: Akhil Akkineni, Jonita Gandhi
    Lyrics: Chandrabose

    The hero Akhil makes his presence felt with a soothing solo Yevevo again in western harmonic minor scale which obviously gives a feeling of eeriness and sadness. Lilting grand piano is ably supported by string section and very mild harmonica.

    Song 5: Anaganaga Oka Uru (Female Version)
    Singer: Shreya Ghoshal
    Lyrics: Chandrabose

    The innocent Anangananga Oka Ooru now arrives in the supreme vocals of Shreya Ghoshal who gives the song a sense of melody and brings forth the brilliance of the tune. This version represents the feeling of love with an air of passion and maturity- thanks to the melody queen’s voice!

    Song 6: Merise Merise
    Singers: Haricharan, Srinidhi Venkatesh, Shruthi Ranjani
    Lyrics: Vanamali, Shreshta

    The album gets a fitting finale with Merise Merise which fuses folk and trance- two totally contrasting genres of Music. This song would perfectly fit for a mellowed down party and doesn’t make an attempt to sound loud or jarry at any point of time. Haricharan,Srinidhi and Shruti Ranjani do their bit with an effortless ease and perfection! Anoop includes a celtic flavor in interludes which is quite rare for an Indian wedding number.

    Verdict:

    All in all, Hello is a wonderful album and a whiff of fresh air in the midst of loud sounding Telugu albums and display multiple hues of love and sensitive emotions.

    Our Picks : Hello , Anaganaga oka uru and Talachi Talachi

    OS Promotions – Akhil gets it right

    0

    Overseas market is turning out to be a decisive factor in deciding the box office fate of Telugu films. This is the reason why many of our stars are choosing scripts that equally cater the likes of both domestic and overseas audience. Moreover, our stars are also concentrating on promoting their films in overseas.

    We have already seen many occasions in the past when some of our star heroes went to US to woo audience as a part promotions. Unfortunately, almost all stars didn’t get the strategy right when it comes to planning their overseas tours . Many stars went to US one week or two weeks after the film released there. This strategy just proved costly for the producer and hardly helped the film’s collections. This is because it is too late to promote a film after one or two weeks of its release as films run for a maximum of two to three weeks in overseas.

    Now, Akkineni Akhil has got it right with sensible planning. As reported earlier, he will embark on a three day tour to US along with Rana Daggubati and Anup Rubens to interact with audience there prior to the release of his upcoming film Hello. This tour, which is going to start one week before release, will definitely increase the buzz on the film among overseas audience and will result in good openings irrespective of the talk it garners from the premiers.

    So, after many stars got it wrong with their strategy of promotions in overseas, Akhil is doing it the right way which is likely to benefit his film big time.

    Hello is slated to hit the screens on December 22nd.
