Prabhas-starrer ‘Project K’ producer Ashwini Dutt refuses to toe Guild line

1

A recent meeting of the Active Telugu Film Producers’ Guild, which is led by star producer Dil Raju, decided to halt film production from August 1 until a solution is found. ‘Project K’ producer Ashwini Dutt, who has been reluctant to listen to the Dil Raju-led Producer’s Guild, has spoken on the same.

The majority of Telugu producers support Dil Raju regarding the shooting strike, but Ashwini Dutt has chosen to take a different route. Ashwini claimed recently in a media interview that Dil Raju is the one who perplexes audiences with his gimmicks. “He will first increase ticket prices before promoting the film at a reduced price”, Ashwini said.

“We won’t halt any filming, and our projects won’t follow Dil Raju’s regulations. We’ll keep shooting”, he continued. Ashwini is currently preoccupied with the ‘Project K’ production, one of the biggest Indian movies starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Amitabh Bachchan in the lead roles.

Ashwini Dutt had also spoken about ‘Project K’ on the occasion.

There is no delay in the shoot and the schedule is happening as per the plan.

“Some combination scenes on Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone are shot currently. Deepika was unwell and she was taken to the hospital. After completing her health check-up, the actress is back on the set. She did not want an actor like Amitabh Bachchan to sit idle on the sets. Deepika Padukone is doing extremely fine and she had fluctuations in her BP. The shoot is happening as per the plan” told Ashwini Dutt.

AP High Court tells Govt to abide by Aswini Dutt deal

1

Noted Telugu Film Producer Aswini Dut is making an unrelenting legal battle against the Jaganmohan Reddy Government on the issue of his Gannavaram lands. The High Court of Andhra Pradesh has taken up hearing on his petition for a suitable compensation for his lands. Aswini Dut’s lawyer has told the court that alternative land given in Amaravati Capital is unacceptable to them since the Government is shifting the Executive Capital out of Amaravati. In such a case, Aswini Dut would have to lose heavily because of his gesture to hand over his Gannavaram lands for the airport expansion.

After hearing both sides, the High Court told the Government that it would have to abide by the agreement signed with Mr. Dut at the time of land acquisition. As per the agreement, the director should be given compensatory land in Amaravati Capital. But, after the change in the Government, Amaravati is not going to be the one and only Capital. Moreover, Executive Capital, which is the real Capital, will be shifted to Visakhapatnam. In such a scenario, Amaravati lands would not have any value. Hence, it would amount to breach of trust on the part of the Government.

The Government asked for some time to file its counter. Making it clear that the agreements cannot be breached, the court postponed the hearing for November 17.
Legal circles say that the court would express similar opinions in respect of the 29,000 farmers who gaver their ancestral lands for Amaravati construction. Obviously, the Jagan regime would have to face a series of historic legal battles before it can shift Capital out of Amaravati.

Ashwini Dutt fires, Will Chiru learn a lesson at least now?

0

Ashwini Dutt, Tollywood producer fired on Chiranjeevi for supporting Jagan’s decision of 3 capitals. In an interview given to media, he fired on Chiranjeevi and said Chiranjeevi doesn’t know anything about this issue. He commented, Chiranjeevi should learn from Pawan Kalyan who is supporting farmers. He also commented that Chiranjeevi should understand that the concept of multiple capitals has failed everywhere else. Ashwini Dutt directly taking the name of Chiranjeevi and lambasting him surprised many and especially the fans of Chiranjeevi. It is known news that both Ashwini Dutt and Chiranjeevi made several movies together and many of them were blockbusters. Chiranjeevi used to do movies regularly with Ashwini Dutt even though several producers were in the queue to get the nod of Chiranjeevi.Ashwini Dutt’s comments on Chiranjeevi seem to be because of his own personal interests rather than as a gesture of support to farmers.

Chiranjeevi supported Ashwini Dutt in 2004 election, despite opposition from fans:

Fans of Chiranjeevi, who were disappointed with Ashwini Dutt comments, opining that Chiranjeevi should at least learn the lessons now. It is known news that Chiranjeevi supported the candidature of Ashwini Dutt as MP from TDP in 2004. For supporting him, Chiranjeevi got the ire from his own fans and at places, fans burnt the effigies of Chiranjeevi for supporting Ashwini Dutt and TDP. But despite getting all this favor from Chiranjeevi, Ashwini Dutt lambasted Chiranjeevi when he floated PRP.

Chiranjeevi’s press meet after success of Mahanati:

However, Chiranjeevi didn’t keep anything in his mind and when Ashwini Dutt got hit after several years in the form of Mahanati, he came forward and convened a press meet and wholeheartedly appreciated the movie and the crew. But Ashwini Dutt again lambasted Chiranjeevi now as his personal stakes are at risk due to Jagan’s decision of shifting capital from Amaravati to Vizag. It is known news that he also gave lands for Gannavaram airport expansion. Chiranjeevi fans are opining that Ashwini Dutt could have spoken on Jagan’s decision without criticizing Chiranjeevi, especially given the fact that Chiranjeevi did not give any video byte on this political topic yet.

Chiranjeevi fans are disappointed with Chiranjeevi’s decision of supporting and helping people like Ashwini Dutt, who time and again lambaste Chiranjeevi for their personal interests and yet get Chiranjeevi’s help when their movie is releasing. Chiranjeevi fans want him to learn the lessons at least now!!!

Ashwini Dutt’s daughters employing old tactics

0

They don’t pay you money for the first project you are doing as a writer, director, editor, costume designer, art director and whatever in the 24 crafts you’re brilliant with. But they say, “Neeku life istunnam. Ma banner lo cheste ne jeevitham maaripotundi”. This is what most popular film studios and production houses used to say to aspiring talents all the time.

As times progressed, this kind of behaviour changed, with every production house paying even assistant directors impressive salaries. But some youngsters are revealing that daughters of popular producer Ashwini Dutt still employ the same old school tactics. They call young talents, use them, take their ideas, and when someone asks about payment, they broadcast their dad’s rich legacy and how that could help these young talents grow in the industry.

As they are working on director Nag Ashwin’s (he is Ashwin Dutt’s second daughter’s husband) new project, they are said to be inviting visual artists, writers and costume designers to work with them. But to all those who step in, they are said to be asking them to treat it as a life-changing opportunity but not a pocket filling one.

Upset with this unethical treatment, many youngsters walk out of their projects, is what people in the know have revealed.

Mahesh Babu’s legal action on Ashwini Dutt?

Veteran producer Ashwini Dutt produced several classics in Telugu cinema on his Vyjayanthi Movies banner and has decades of experience. Superstar Mahesh Babu promised to do a film with Ashwini Dutt after the failure of Sainikudu and he wrapped up his commitment through Maharshi which is co-produced by Dil Raju and PVP along with Ashwini Dutt. Dil Raju took the production responsibility of Maharshi and Ashwini Dutt, PVP just invested their part and will share the profits of Maharshi.

Differences cropped out after Ashwini Dutt wanted to hold Krishna district distribution rights though a clear contract was written that Dil Raju will handle the distribution responsibilities. This disturbed the entire team of Maharshi and Mahesh Babu decided not to work with Ashwini Dutt in the future again. There are even talks that Mahesh Babu and Dil Raju are in plans to initiate legal action if the issue doesn’t sort out soon.

Why NTR Refused to Act in Mahanati?

0

With a senior producer like Ashwini Dutt making ‘Mahanati’, a biopic on legendary actress Savitri, there is an undying curiosity among movie loves over who would essay the characters of NTR and ANR. The name of NTR Jr was vehemently doing rounds to essay his grandfather’s character until the makers have recently denied this speculation.

Given the good relation between Dutt’s family and NTR Jr, the senior producer has reportedly tried his best to convince the Young Tiger to reprise his grandfather’s role. NTR had acted in the last two production ventures of Dutt’s Vyjayanthi Movies banner – ‘Kantri’ and ‘Shakthi’. Despite this professional as well as personal acquaintance, NTR turned down the crucial cameo in ‘Mahanati’. Movie goers might be wondering, what could have been the reason?

As per our reliable sources, NTR cited that he neither has the stature nor the maturity to play his legendary grandfather on silver screen. In spite of Dutt’s request, NTR has been adamant about his decision. As Dutt couldn’t find any other actor who can do justice to Sr NTR’s role, he has decided to wait till the very end of filming for the Young Tiger to change his mind.

Background hunt is on to find a replacement if NTR doesn’t change his mind.
