Surender Reddy reveals the interval shot of SyeRaa

0

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s SyeRaa is gearing up for a gigantic release on October 2nd. Made with a staggering budget of over 300 Crores, the magnum opus period film is said to have a heavy dose of VFX shots which will offer a terrific experience for audience on the big screen. .

Director Surender Reddy has shared a photo in his social media page after the completion of DTS mixing in all five languages. In the background of this photo, we can see a breathtaking frame from what seems to be the interval shot of the film. Chiranjeevi is seen sitting on the top of a huge rock in Yoga posture. Blazing words ‘The War Begins Now’ on the screen indicate that this particular scene will conclude the first half of the film.

The spectacular trailers have revealed that cinematography and other technical values will be top notch in the film. Many Hollywood technicians have worked for this film and the war episodes are likely to be the biggest asset. The makers have spent a solid budget on these episodes and they are shot on a grand scale which will leave audience in awe.

Actor and Chiranjeevi’s son Ram Charan has produced the film on his home banner.

No song and dance from Chiru for hardcore fans

0

It became a norm for filmmakers to surprise the audiences in theatres by not revealing about certain songs. However, Megastar Chiranjeevi is not going to give any such surprises to his fans on October 2nd as ‘Sye Raa’ heads for a release.

Even in a serious social message oriented film like Tagore, Chiranjeevi is the one who has taken the task of dancing to the core for his hardcore fans. But when it comes to Sye Raa, he’s not even remotely entertaining the dance-pleas of his fans as he feels that the original thought and ideology behind making this freedom bound film will be lost.

There are two songs in the film, one that highlights the greatness of Uyyalwada and another one that is more like a war-cry. There are four more songs in the album of the film which might come as background songs in the movie but won’t have any dance and charm to them. Even Tamanna’s introduction episodes won’t like an item song as Chiru got them toned to match the seriousness of the film.

Maybe this is the first film in decades that won’t have Chiranjeevi introducing some new dance moves and enthralling his fans like never before.

High Court refuses to stay ‘Sye Raa’ release

0

In a tight slap to some of the descendants of Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, the Telangana High Court has other day refused to stay the release of the film as demanded by the descendants in a petition.

As the petitioners headed by Doravari Dastagiri Reddy mentioned that they have a signed agreement from makers of the movie to give them money, Court ordered them to approach a Civil Court to enforce the agreement and opined that there is no need to stall the release of the flick for the same. Court clearly mentioned that civil disputes should be settled and can be settled even after a release of the film, but there is no need to intervene with the release.

Another demand of this section of Uyyalwada descendants is that they should be screened Sye Raa before its release to see if there are any discrepancies in the narrative. High Court refuted their claim saying that all such petitions will be entertained only after the film’s release as there is no provision in the law that says family members (or heirs) should be screened a biopic before its release.

With the counsel of Sye Raa claiming that the film is not a biopic in total but has lots of fictionalised content based on the information available in public domain, Uyyalwada descendants cannot be legally demanding for the preview of the film before its release.

“Sye Raa” event rights to Sakshi, Mega fans puzzled

0

“Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy”, mega star Chiranjeevi’s magnum opus, is all set to release on 2nd October on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanthi. As Dasara holidays also starting from the same date, the movie is expected to collect huge, if it gets positive talk on first day. Pre-release event of the movie is scheduled this evening. Surprisingly, the telecast rights of this event is given to Sakshi Channel and that puzzled mega-fans.

Sakshi boycotted Pawan’s cinema news as well :

Ever since Pawan floated Janasena, Sakshi has been writing negative news on Pawan. But that is understandable as Jagan, the owner of this media house, is running another party. However, even in cinema page also Sakshi started completely avoiding Pawan. When Pawan was chief guest for launch of NTR’s movie Aravinda sametha, Sakshi covered the news without mentioning chief guest.

Click here:Is “Sakshi” insecure about “Pawan”?

Sakshi has been doing the same for last couple of years. Recently, when Pawan attended launch of Telakapalli Ravi’s book, Sakshi gave the news by cropping the photo and deleting Pawan’s photo.

Click here:పవన్ పుస్తకావిష్కరణ సభ వార్తలో పవన్ ఫోటో డిలీట్ చేసిన సాక్షి

As Ram Charan himself is producer, this move puzzled fans:

By seeing this biased and manipulated news in Sakshi, many mega fans stopped believing Sakshi on the news related to mega fans. In this background, ‘Sye Raa’ rights being given to Sakshi came as shocker to mega fans. If producer is outsider, it could have been justified saying, it is the decision of producer, who invested money for this magnum opus. But, incidentally, producer of this movie is also Ram charan and no logic seems to justify this move. from the point of view of fans.

Similar other incidents:

During Bahubali 1 pre-release event, Telugu people were so curious to see how would be the event but the rights of that movie were given to TV5 and that surprised many as TV5 was not that popular and that was not telecast (at that time) in some areas. Many criticized Rajamauli and team for this saying, instead of trying make more money through the event, they could have ensured that event is watched by all Telugu audience by giving this event to more popular channel. Now also many people are wondering whether Sye Raa unit preferred to make more money by giving the rights to Sakshi.

Counter argument:

However, some mega fans are giving counter arguments that it is the marketing team that decides whom should be given the telecast rights based on several parameters. However, this argument doesn’t hold good in our industry as even directors and producers can’t go ahead without getting nod from Mega star. Some others say, Chiranjeevi wants to convey that he is “Andarivadu” and his movies are not impacted by politics. But no counter argument could satisfy mega fans and they are still puzzled by this move.

P.S: People are curious to see whether Sakshi completely telecasts Pawan’s speech or cuts it short or completely avoids his speech. We will have wait for few more hours to know this.

It’s a tough call for Chiru on Sye Raa climax

0

In many of the stories that were presented to Megastar Chiranjeevi, many times writers envisioned that the hero character should die at the end of the film. But Chiranjeevi is the one who rewrites the fate of protagonist by changing that scene.

Back then, when Chiru remade Tamil super hit Ramana in Telugu, he has removed the scene where the lead hero Vijaykanth shoots himself and dies. Rather Chiru coined the idea of carving a court scene where the lead will give a lecture on the things he has done and escapes with minimal punishment.

Coming to Chiranjeevi’s latest flick Sye Raa, it is a historical film and the Megastar can’t change the story now. We hear that writers Paruchuri Brothers and a couple of professors from Telugu university sat with Chiranjeevi for months to discuss the alternatives to this death scene. Especially with history saying that Uyyalwada’s followers and family travelling with his body for a month in the forest before the British got hold of it, how could Chiranjeevi evade those scenes? It’s a tough call for him.

Director Surender Reddy has shot all those scenes quite carefully such that both Chiranjeevi and his fans won’t get hurt. These scenes come up in the last 15 minutes of October 2nd releasing magnum opus ‘Sye Raa’.

Nayanthara to break her rules for Megastar

0

Nayanthara is the highest paid South Indian actress and she never promotes her films which is a known fact for filmmakers. Despite of several attempts, the actress never made up for the promotions. For the first time, Nayanthara would be promoting her next film Syeraa which is releasing across Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam languages.

After Megastar wanted her to be present, Nayanthara could not say no. The actress was bowled away with the professionalism of Megastar on the sets and the way she was treated. Hence, she could not say no. As of now, Nayanthara would be present for one of the events in Mumbai and Chennai each for Syeraa. Directed by Surendar Reddy, Syeraa is the story of freedom fighter Uyyalavada Narasimha Reddy. The film releases on October 2nd across the globe.

SyeRaa makers taking cue from Saaho

0

Saaho is the biggest tentpole film of the season that released all over the country in multiple languages. It is performing well in the Hindi belt despite getting negative reviews. But, the Telugu version failed to maintain its momentum after the strong performance in first weekend. Due to over expectations, the film didn’t fetch the desired feedback from audience.

The next mega budget film of the season is Chiranjeevi’s SyeRaa which is going to have a wide release in all territories. The makers of SyeRaa are very cautious not to repeat the mistakes commited by Saaho team before the release. Chiru is keenly overseeing all the production and promotional activities. He has already directed his team not to give unnecessary hype which may lead to high expectations. Producer Ram Charan is also making sure that there is no need to exaggerate the budget and grandeur of the film as audience will directly experience it on the screen. He wants to keep the promotions toned-down so that audience will go with open mind.

Like Saaho, SyeRaa is projected as a pan-India film ever since it was launched. So, Ram Charan and Chiru are taking cue from the strategies of Saaho team to ensure SyeRaa is given only adequate publicity rather than trying for inflated buzz in media and audience. They have cut the trailer in such a way that it will generate the much needed hype in all languages. Saaho team didn’t promote the film after its release and it impacted the collections to some extent. Also, the ticket pricing for Saaho is very unreasonable in overseas. So, SyeRaa team is planning to avoid such gross mistakes which will have an effect on the collections.

All in all, SyeRaa team has learnt many lessons from the debacle of Saaho and planning to avoid those mistakes to hit the bulls eye at the box office.

Sye Raa Business – Chiranjeevi is THE ONLY Megastar

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s highly anticipated patriotic drama SyeRaa, which chronicles the life history of freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, has been creating ripples in trade circles with its sensational pre release business in both Telugu states. Telugu360 has already reported that SyeRaa rights are sold for record prices in all areas.

As per the latest update, the theatrical rights of SyeRaa are going to fetch a mammoth 80 Crore rupees for the makers. The Ceded region rights were snapped for a staggering 22 Crores and Uttarandhra rights were bagged for 14.4 Crores. In Guntur and West, the film closed stunning deals with 11.50 Crores and 8.40 Crores. The Nellore region rights were sold for 4.80 Crores and the Krishna region rights are valued at 8.40 Crores. The makers are expecting close to 10.5 Crores from East region. The total pre release business of Andhra region stands at close to 80 Crores which is the highest for a Non Baahubali 2 film. Also no film apart from Baahubali 2 has collected more than 80 Crores in this region.

So, SyeRaa is going to be a real test for Chiranjeevi’s box office stamina. The Surender Reddy directional should perform exceptionally well in Telugu states to be termed as a hit. The expectations are very high and trade circles are predicting a solid start for SyeRaa. Ram Charan has produced the film on a massive scale. SyeRaa is set for grand release on October 2nd.
