Eyebrows were raised when Kajal Agarwal has been roped in as the female lead in Chiranjeevi’s 150th film. Chiranjeevi is more than thirty years older than Kajal, who has done multiple films with his son Ram Charan. Chiranjeevi was trolled like hell on social media for zeroing in Kajal as the heroine.  Media made fun of megastar by saying that he would look like a grand dad of the actress. Imaginations and comments aside, how would they really look together? Here is the first look of Chiranjeevi and Kajal together from the sets of Khaidi No. 150. We must admit that Chiranjeevi doesn’t look like a sixty year old in this picture.

Facebook killed Rooms and others stand-alone apps in December last year that had failed to gain any traction. A report back in September said that Facebook is planning to integrate Rooms into Messenger. Now the company has started rolling out Messenger Rooms, a bulletin board-style, real-time messaging feature for users in Australia and Canada. Rooms, based on a particular topic can be private or public, but it will be currently capped at 250 participants. Users will be able to publicly share links on topics, and the administrators will have tools to revoke access if some users choose to be disruptive or abusive. Facebook recently released Flash, a Snapchat clone designed for developing countries. It also started testing Snapchat Stories style feature for Messenger. Rooms is already available for Messenger users on Android in Australia and is being tested in Canada as well. Facebook is expected to roll out Room in Messenger for more users in coming weeks.

A lot is being talked about the Income Tax department raids on Baahubali producers homes. Media speculates that some tens of crores of rupees were seized by the IT department. Some were claiming that the raids have put Baahubali 2 filming in a spot of bother. Writer Vijayendra Prasad rubbished all such claims and said that the income tax raid on the film’s producers Shobhu Yarlagadda and Prasad Devineni will not hamper the shooting and release of the film. Baahubali 2 is gearing up for April 28, 2017 release and there is no change in plan as of now.  The veteran writer added “All the expenditure is by cheque and accounted for. No cash payments were made at any point during the shooting. So there is no point of seizing unaccounted money.” Prasad said that the total filming of Baahubali: The Conclusion will be complete by December and post production follows.

Entire shoot of "Dhruva" has come to an end. The movie's shoot was wrapped up today and Charan thanked his team for working hard for the movie. Still, there is no clarity whether this film can come to the theaters on 2nd December as announced. Although everyone in the industry is saying that the movie wouldn't be releasing on that day due to the confusion in the market currently. But the makers of "Dhruva" have a different scenario. If they postpone the movie by one or two weeks, they may have to directly compete with Suriya's bilingual "S 3" which is releasing on 16th December.   And if they push the movie to Christmas, they will not much gap between the releases of "Dhruva" and Chiranjeevi's Sankranthi release "Khaidi No 150". Before taking a call on this issue, Allu Aravind is likely to be having discussion with Suriya and Studio Green Jnanavel Raja to enquire whether "S 3" can be pushed to later

The foreign media has hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent decision to demonetise high-value currency notes, with the Singapore-based The Independent comparing him to the nation-state's founding father Lee Kuan Yew while the Forbes said despite “obvious chaos, it is working”.Titled “Modi does a Lee Kuan Yew to stamp out corruption in India,” the The Independent web portal described the move as “dramatic” and said, “From making up his mind to rolling it out on Nov 8, a new Lee Kuan Yew is born in India. It will be reflected in the legacy of this prime minister.” The theindependent.sg further said that the “sudden move by the Indian prime minister has brought new respect for him”.PM Modi’s admiration for Lee is no secret.
