THEATRICAL 

TRAILER REVIEW 

Ace Director SS Rajamouli has become 

the pride of Telugu cinema and his 

movies have done exceptionally well 

in the nieghbouring languages in the 

recent years which made him widely 

popular among the film circles. After 

scoring back to back stupendous 

hits at the box-office, he has now 

focused on his magnum opus 

titled Baahubali which did not 

have any barriers in terms 

of budget. 

Baahubali has been under shoot for over two years and it has been made on a 

whopping budget of over Rs 180 crores. Though Telugu cinema business has been 

limited to 70 – 80 crores, this veteran filmmaker has taken to make the movie so 

that it will be released in multiple languages to recover the investments. Prabhas, 

Anushka, Rana and Tamannah played the leads in the movie and the theatrical trailer 

of the movie has been screened today in selected theatres all over AP and Telangana. 

Here is an exclusive review on the trailer:

An epic should have stunning visuals and the movie should take us to a new world which we have never seen 

but we heard of. Indian audience always remind of Hollywood flicks when it comes to periodic dramas involving 

extensive graphic work. Many directors and filmmakers tried their luck on epics in many Indian languages but 

most of them ended up as debacles at the ticket window. However this will not happen with Baahubali and the 

trailer speaks it all. The 2:05 minutes trailer will take you to a new world which can be never dreamt. My hands 

started shivering and heart stopped beating for 125 seconds.A terrific trailer with stunning visuals, beautiful 

locales, jaw dropping action episodes and heart breaking performances. The re-recording has been outstanding 

and the cinematography has been visually stupendous. How much be the expectations, Baahuabli : The Beginning 

trailer will sure meet and live up the expectations. Proud that SS Rajamouil is a part of Indian Cinema and 

especially Telugu cinema...The trailer will hit the social media at 5 PM. Don’t miss it. It’s a must watch.The Era of 

Baahubali ahead. One of the best trailers.

THE 

BIGGEST 

CINEMA 

GEST 

ON INDIAN 

CELLULOID 

NEMA 

Indian Cinema has witnessed 

drastic changes in the past few 

years in all the departments. 

The market of Indian cinema has 

crossed the boundaries and the 

films with stuff have minted huge 

INDIAN 

money in many International 

markets where language is a 

barrier. Some of the South Indian 

movies have even been competing 

with the vast Bollywood movies 

which fetched positive results. Now 

LLULOID 

maverick filmmaker SS Rajamouli 

who got national recognition with 

his movies is coming up with a 

periodic drama titled Baahubali. 

21

coverSTORY 

22

The movie has been shot for over 2 years and 

the budget of the movie has been huge for 

a South Indian film. Sources say that the 

makers have spent around Rs 200 crores 

on the movie which has been shot simultaneously in 

Telugu, Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam languages. SS 

Rajamouli has worked out on the movie for over six 

years which may sound strange but this passionate 

filmmaker has even bigger dreams to show Baahubali 

as a film with International standards. 

At just 41 years, Rajamouli is one of the few 

directors stars call up to ask if he has a role for them. 

Producers offered him Rs 10 crore in fees way back 

in 2010. In an industry where movies are completely 

star-oriented, Rajamouli has changed the formula by 

never sticking to a formula. 

W 

hen Eega was being made, his detractors would 

snigger, “How can a fly be a hero?” But when 

Eega broke records, the same producers watched 

with green-eyed envy. Rajamouli has consistently 

denied copying Eega from the Australian short film 

Cockroach, but even if he did, the emotions in the fly 

seemed so human viewers forgave him. 

23

coverSTORY 

“BAAHUBALI IS LIKE 

AN AVENGERS OR 

GAME OF THRONES, 

WHERE THE VIEWER 

WOULD BE MORE 

INVOLVED IN THE 

FILM RATHER THAN 

THE STARS,” promises 

Shobu. About a decade 

ago, Rajamouli told this 

correspondent, “I WANT TO 

MAKE A MOVIE LIKE 

BRAVEHEART, WHICH 

HAS EVERYTHING— 

LOVE, PATRIOTISM, 

EMOTIONS, ACTION.” 

Indeed, he appears close to 

fulfilling this ambition with the 

multilingual Baahubali, which 

might just be India’s answer to 

Hollywood’s big-budget, bigemotion 

sagas. 

The theatrical trailer of the film 

has been released recently 

and it has been receiving 

exceptional response from the 

film circles and movie lovers. 

The expectations have reached 

the borders and the destructive 

trailer made the film dream even 

bigger. Even the most popular 

film celebrities of Bollywood have 

been taking their time to praise 

SS Rajamouli and his work for 

Baahubali. 

24

Young Rebel Star Prabhas and Anushka 

Shetty are playing the lead roles in 

Baahubali and Rana Daggubati, Tamannah 

Bhatia will be seen in the other lead roles. 

Nassar, Satyaraj, Sudeep, Adivi Sesh and Ramya 

Krishna will be seen in other prominent roles in the 

movie. MM Kreem is composing the music along 

with the background score. KK Senthil Kumar is the 

cinematographer and Sabu Cyril is the art director. 

Peter Hein composed the action sequences and 

Shobu Yarlagadda, Prasad Devineni are producing 

the film on Arka Media Works banner. 

Bollywood’s promising filmmaker Karan Johar has 

bagged the theatrical rights of the movie for Hindi 

and he will release the movie all over in Hindi through 

his Dharma Productions banner. The movie has 

done a terrific pre release business all over in all the 

languages and it is in final stages of post production. 

Baahubali will complete all the formalities and will 

release all over on July 10th. The makers along 

with the team are quite confident on the film and 

Baahubali is getting ready to entertain the audience 

with wonderful visuals. Hope the film will live up the 

expectations and end up as history in Indian Cinema. 

25

B Baahubali 

Last week, the good people of Arka Media Works invited me down to Hyderabad in South 

India, the home of Telugu Cinema, to visit Ramoji Film City and the set of their longawaited 

medieval epic, Baahubali. 

Take A Peek At The Set Of 

S.S. RAJAMOULI’S Medieval 

Epic BAAHUBALI 

The film, which stars “Young Rebel” Prabhas, Anushka Shetty and Rana Daggubati, is 

directed by S.S. Rajamouli, who should be well-known around these parts as the man 

responsible for the epic fly action spectacular Eega, which took audiences around the 

world by storm a couple of years ago. 

Set to be released in two parts, and being filmed simultaneously in both Telugu and Tamil, 

Baahubali is set to be the most expensive Indian movie ever made, but anticipation for its 

release is so great it is almost guaranteed to be a monster hit. The first part, Baahubali: 

The Beginning, will be unleashed on audiences across India and NRI strongholds in July, 

with the second half likely to be released in the first half of 2016.

The first part, Baahubali: The

strongholds in July, with the

Over the next few days 

we will be publishing 

some juicy tidbits I 

gathered during my trip, 

including an interview 

with Rajamouli himself, 

as well as other key 

members of the crew. 

Firstly, however, I just 

wanted to give you a 

little look at one of the 

major sets for the film 

that I was allowed to 

visit and photograph, as 

well as one of the major 

property storage rooms.

10 QUOTES ABOUT 

SS RAJAMOULI THAT PROVE HE IS 

“THE CAPTAIN” OF TFI! 

We normally see this kind of structure and this kind of action 

or whatever the framework is in some of the more progressive 

Hollywood films but to have to see this here in India is amazing. 

I should have been in this project. 

- AMITABH BACHCHAN 

We cannot make movies like Baahubali here in Bollywood because, 

we don’t have Rajamouli. 

- KARAN JOHAR 

I am really looking forward to Rajamouli’s new film Baahubali. Its 

very huge and looks very exciting. 

- ABHISHEK BACHCHAN 

He is a very talented person. I would work with him if I get a chance. 

- AAMIR KHAN 

28

Just because of the quality’M of film we decided to dub it as 

`IVIakkhir. The pace and the way he has made it is just mind 

blowing. 

- AJAY DEVGAN 

Charan ane Shilpa Anni Chek kind di mana Amara Shilpi Jakkanna 

Rajamouli. Thanaki unna talent motthanni ee okka cinemalo 

chupinchadu mana Rajamouli 

- CHIRANJEEVI 

When he did Magadheera, I congratulated him as a proud Telugaite 

and a proud Indian. 

- PAWAN KALYAN 

The only mistake I have done is, I missed an opportunity to work with 

Rajamouli sir. 

-SURYA 

Among the current star directors, Rajamouli garu is the only one who 

is breaking boundaries. Be it Maryada Ramanna or Eega he can 

handle any kind of film. That’s what you call a director. 

- NAGARJUNA 

Rajamouli is going to be No.1 in India. If I get opportunity I will 

definitely work in his picture.

introduced woman centric films to South 

Indian cinema in this generation with 

Mantra which was a stupendous boxoffice 

hit. 

The movie has received 

good response all over and 

is running successfully. 

Charmee revealed that she 

will continue to do typical 

characters in her career 

and she will not leave 

acting. 

She has done glamorous, traditional and 

roles which needed performance in her 

career. After scoring back to back hits 

in her career, she has received tough 

competition from the young actresses 

and this is the time Charmee has taken 

as a challenge to bounce back with a 

right film. 

She has signed Jyothi Lakshmi in the direction of Super 

Talented Puri Jagannadh and the movie explained the 

life story of an item girl. She has done a terrific job and 

her performance in the movie has been appreciated. 

Various NGOs and Voluntary organizations that 

support women have praised the work of Charmee 

in the film. She has been specially felicitated in Film 

Chamber, Hyderabad recently.

Exclusive Interview 

I AM A STRUGGLER 

After scoring the biggest hit of the year with Tanu Weds Manu Retursn, 

Kangana is now a relaxed girl. She has been blown with offers however 

she has been quite carefull with her future projects as she has been 

named as the Female Khan of Bollywood. Here is an exclusive interview 

of her along with the excerpts of her movies: 

34 

Kangana 

Ranaut 

GANGSTER (2006) 

I’m proud of my 

performance but 

disappointed with the 

reaction I got because 

I think it was a much 

better performance 

than Queen. The film 

clicked and suddenly I 

was on every brilliant 

director’s “favourite 

actress” list. But not a 

single one signed me. It 

was a lonely battle, me 

against the world. 

FASHION (2008) After 

Gangster, I was confused. 

My talent wasn’t helping 

me get work. I did some 

bad films just to remain 

visible. Life In A... Metro 

wasn’t ‘my’ film, nor was 

Fashion though I slogged 

really hard. After 

Fashion, people thought 

I was a dopehead and 

that was not a good 

feeling (Laughs). My 

biggest apprehension 

was whether I’d be able 

to convey the complexity 

of Shonali in the 15 

minutes that I had. And 

boom there comes a 

National Award! 

ONCE UPON A TIME 

IN MUMBAAI (2010) 

I worked very hard 

although I had very 

little screen-time in a 

male-centric film. Milan 

(director Milan Luthria) 

really helped me with 

the character. In the 

second half, we had to 

establish the fact that 

Ajay Devgn’s character 

gives up everything for

this girl. Is she worth 

it? Through my look, 

expressions and limited 

lines, I had to convey the 

passion that she feels 

for this man. 

TANU WEDS MANU 

(2011) The phone was 

ringing but not with 

great offers. Milan 

(Luthria) offered me The 

Dirty Picture but how 

many times could I play 

‘the girl on the verge of 

a nervous breakdown’. 

Anand Rai noticed me in 

OUATIM in a romantic 

role and offered me 

Tanu... . The film changed 

the game for me. Vikas 

Bahl was convinced I 

could play Rani after 

watching Tanu... 

QUEEN (2014) I was 

confused about why 

(director) Vikas wanted 

me for Rani. I’d played 

a supermodel (Fashion) 

and a superwoman 

(Krissh 3), how could I 

be Rani? I don’t think it’s 

a great performance. It’s 

the supporting cast that 

elevates it. Rajkummar 

Rao’s arrogance makes 

Rani more vulnerable 

while Lisa Haydon’s 

liberated ways made her 

appear caged. There are 

films you do justice to 

and then there are films 

that do justice to your 

talent. Queen proved 

that the century-long 

struggle paid off! 

TANU WEDS MANU 

RETURNS (2015) I 

am quite comfortable 

with Anand L Rai after 

Tanu Weds Manu 

which brought me wide 

recognition. I should 

indeed thank him for 

choosing me for the 

project. The excitement 

has doubled for the 

sequel after I had a small 

look up on the script 

of the film. I felt it is 

going to be big but the 

result was huge. I should 

thank the audience for 

such overwhelming 

love and support. Tanu 

Weds Manu Returns 

success has doubled my 

responsibilities as an 

actress. 

K 

angana 

has been 

choosy 

with her movies 

and her recent 

movie Tanu 

Weds Manu 

Returns crossed 

Rs 150 crore 

mark in Indian 

market which 

is a record for a 

woman centric 

film. She has 

been simply 

superb in the 

movie.

BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN: SALMAN 

KHAN GETS EMOTIONAL, 

CAUGHT CRYING 

We all know that Salman Khan 

has a very big heart. The actor 

who looks so tough from 

outside is actually very soft 

hearted in real life. Recently 

Salman Khan got emotional 

and cried while watching his 

own film Bajrangi Bhaijaan. 

Salman Khan organised a 

special screening of Bajrangi 

Bhaijaan for his close friends 

David Dhawan and Sajid 

Nadiadwala recently. According 

to Bollywood Life, Salman Khan 

was at the LightBox theatre 

last night for the screening of

that Salman had tears in his 

eyes when he was watching the 

film. 

WHEN BOLLYWOOD ACTORS 

GOSSIPED ABOUT SHAHID 

KAPOOR’S WEDDING AT 

ARJUN’S BIRTHDAY PARTY 

Arjun Kapoor recently hosted 

a birthday party for his 

Bollywood friends. Rumour 

has it, at the party all the 

actors gossiped about Shahid 

Kapoor’s sudden wedding 

announcement. We all know 

that Shahid Kapoor is tying the 

knot with Mira Rajput on July 

7. The actor is also planning for 

a grand reception in Mumbai 

on July 12th for all his industry 

friends. According to Bollywood 

Life at Arjun Kapoor’s birthday 

bash, Shahid Kapoor’s marriage 

with Mira Rajput was the 

hottest topic of discussion. 

Talking about it a source told, 

“Everybody was talking about 

Shahid Kapoor and Mira 

Rajput’s wedding. It was the 

sudden announcement that 

surprised Bollywoodwallahs.’’ 

GUESS WHY SHAHID 

KAPOOR’S BACHELOR PARTY 

GOT CANCELLED! 

Sad news for all those Shahid 

Kapoor fans, who are eagerly 

waiting for his bachelor party. 

Few days back, we informed 

you that Shasha is all set to 

throw a grand bachelor party in 

Greece. But it seems that bad 

luck has hit Shasha’s bachelor 

party! Disappointed? So are we. 

But according to our sources, 

Shahid’s busy schedule is 

spoiling all the arrangements 

for his bachelor party as he is 

already pre-occupied with many 

projects along with his wedding 

preparations.

SULTAN: WHEN ANGRY 

ADITYA CHOPRA BASHED 

KANGANA RANAUT 

Kangana Ranaut is getting a 

lot of praises from Bollywood 

for her acting in movies like 

Queen and Tanu Weds Manu 

Returns. But rumour has it 

that Filmmaker Aditya Chopra 

is really miffed with Kangana. 

We all know that Kangana 

Ranaut was offered to star 

opposite Salman Khan in 

Sultan but the actress chose 

to work in Vishal Bhardwaj’s 

Rangoon instead. Kangana 

Ranaut had also confirmed 

the news and told a leading 

daily, “Yes, Sultan’s dates are 

clashing with Rangoon and I am 

already committed to Rangoon.’’ 

Kangana also said that she does 

not want to work in a herocentric 

films, where heroines 

don’t have enough role. 

SHAHID KAPOOR TO INVITE 

ALLEGED EX GF’S-KAREENA, 

PRIYANKA, SONAKSHI, VIDYA 

TO HIS WEDDING 

Anurag Kashyap’s Bombay 

Velvet performed miserably 

at the Box-office. Rumour has 

it that the director has not yet 

paid the lead actress Anushka 

Sharma’s fee. According to 

recent reports, Anushka 

Sharma is very upset about it as 

Ranbir Kapoor has got his full 

remuneration while Anushka is 

still waiting for it. 

Talking about the issue, a source 

told Bollywood Hungama, 

“Why will Fox be responsible 

for clearing her dues? It was 

Phantom Films and Anurag who 

signed her for the film and it is 

they who will have to pay her 

for it.” 

WHY IS SALMAN KHAN HIDING 

BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN’S 

CHILD ACTOR HARSHAALI 

MALHOTRA? 

After the trailer of Bajrangi 

Bhaijaan came out everyone 

wanted to know about the 

little girl who was seen lost 

at the railway station. But 

both Salman Khan and Kabir 

Khan wants to keep Harshaali 

Malhotra away from the 

promotions as the marketing 

strategy. Not many people 

know that before Bajrangi 

Bhaijaan, Harshaali Malhotra 

played the daughter of 

Bhagyashree in serial Laut Aao 

Trisha. Talking about Harshaali’s 

absence form Bajrangi 

Bhaijaan’s promotions, a source 

told Mid Day, ‘‘Harshaali’s role 

is central to the film’s story 

and so, it was decided by both 

Salman and director Kabir Khan 

that they will not reveal too 

many details about her.’’

ANOTHER HURDLE FOR 

PAWAN KALYAN’S 

GABBAR SINGH 2 

Here comes yet another 

disappointing news for Pawan 

Kalyan fans about Gabbar Singh 

2. Reports were going viral that 

Pawan Kalyan will join the shoot 

from July till today. But the 

latest tweets from the actor has 

chuck all the reports and hopes 

of Pawan fans. Going by Pawan 

Kalyan’s tweets, he is going 

to get busy in dealing political 

issues in the coming few days. 

So, it is unlikely to see the actor 

on the sets of Gabbar Singh 2 

and hence the project might get 

delayed further. 

BAAHUBALI DIALOGUE 

TEASER: RANA DAGGUBATI 

BLOWS YOUR MIND AWAY 

While People are still in Awe of

Brahmotsavam. The project will 

be helmed by Srikanth Addala 

and Samantha, Kajal Aggarwal 

and Pranitha Subash has been 

roped in to romance our very 

own Superstar Mahesh. The 

actor have had some notable 

hits with Samantha while he 

acted in a decent entertainer 

with Kajal Aggarwal. However, 

both the actresses make a great 

pair with Mahesh Babu and 

were known for their on-screen 

chemistry. Co-incidentally, both 

the beauties have performed 

for lip lock scenes with the 

actor.

ANOTHER CONTROVERSY 

BETWEEN SAMANTHA AND 

SHRUTI HAASAN 

It is known that Samantha and 

Shruti Haasan always maintain 

a personal and professional 

distance for unknown reasons. 

Controversy between then 

brews up every now and then 

and this time Film fare has 

become a stage for it. While 

everybody else expected 

Samantha to bag a black lady 

for her work in Manam, Shruti 

Haasan won the Best Actress 

award for Race Gurram. This 

has led to many discussions and 

debates on social networking 

sites and Samantha fans 

started tweeting in their 

disappointment over the Film 

fare decision. 

PAWAN KALYAN CREATES 

SENSATION NEAR A GYM IN 

BANGALORE 

Pawan Kalyan creates a new

being spotted at the gym these 

days. His fans gathered at the 

place early in the morning to 

have a glimpse at their matinee 

idol and the scene was first of 

it’s kind in the recent times. 

Pawan Kalyan was reportedly 

getting ready to showcase 

a fit and perfect body in his

Mahesh Babu opened up on 

Baahubali and Srimanthudu 

release postponement. Mahesh 

Babu said everybody in the Telugu 

industry should be proud of a film 

like Baahubali since it is made of 

a huge budget and great efforts. 

He called it as a good sign to 

maintain at least three to four 

weeks gap between two big films 

like Baahubali and Srimanthudu 

“It is not the time to compete 

since If any thing goes wrong 

with Baahubali we all too have to 

be facing the after math so it is 

healthy to gave some gap between

With OK Kanmani tasting

work together pretty soon. 

Turning all those speculations

When was the last time a just

But Thala Ajith’s just born son,

After trending all over India

issue that’s been getting under 

Kamal’s skin of late is the 

support caste system manages 

to get from major political 

parties in our country. 

Annoyed with politicians 

endorsing the caste system, 

the Uttama Villain actor has 

revealed that he had an idea to 

bring the concept onto the big

Starring : Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Priyanka 

Chopra, Ranveer Singh, 

Anushka Sharma, Farhan Akhtar 

:::::ANALYSIS::::: 

The first half of the movie has 

been interesting and the narration 

has been decent. The multiplex 

audience will be completely 

pleased with the presentation of 

the film. The performance by the 

lead actors has been magical and 

the complete first half has been 

decent with loads of entertainment 

which makes the film racy. 

The second half of the movie 

has many flaws which irritate 

the audience but they have 

been rectified again at times. 

Unfortunately the second half of 

the film is really not up to the mark. 

It is a bit disappointing. 

:::::PERFORMANCE::::: 

Anil Kapoor has been decent as 

a responsible father and Shefali 

Shah provided good support. The 

two huge saving graces of the film 

are Ranveer Singh and Priyanka 

Chopra. Ranveer’s amazing 

punch lines and dialogue delivery 

calls in for an applaud for sure. 

His liveliness never lets us down. 

Priyanka on the other hand plays 

a unhappily married business 

woman with perfection. Anushka 

Sharma has been decent and 

Farhan Akhtar once again proved 

that he is a versatile actor. The 

other actors have delivered out 

their best. 

The story of the movie is nothing 

strong but thin. The screenplay 

and the narration have been 

completely written targeting 

the urban audience. The 

cinematography, styling and the 

locations have been fantastic. The 

film has been shot in rich locations. 

The music has been decent and 

the background score has been 

elevating. The production values 

have been grand enough and 

the director has been decent 

in showcasing the story of a 

millionaire. 

:::::FINAL WORD::::: 

Dil Dhadakne Do is sure a delight 

for urban audience except some 

flaws in the second half . The 

leads performance and the grand 

narration makes the film a decent 

watch.

Salman Khan

Bollywood Superstar 

Salman Khan can 

otherwise be called as the 

King of Bollywood’s Boxoffice 

and he has been one 

of the most commercially 

successful actors in India. 

His style, performance and 

dance movements leave 

his fans in vein and he was 

the one who introduced 

Rs 100 crore club to 

Indian cinema. The son of 

screenwriter Salim, Khan 

began his acting career 

with a supporting role in 

Biwi Ho To Aisi (1988) and 

achieved breakthrough with 

a leading role in his next 

release — Sooraj Barjatya’s 

romance Maine Pyar Kiya 

(1989).

Khan went on to establish himself in Bollywood in the 1990s with roles in several top-grossing productions, 

including the romantic drama Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!(1994), the action thriller Karan Arjun (1995), the 

comedy Biwi No.1 (1999), and the family drama Hum Saath-Saath Hain (1999). For his role in Karan Johar’s 

romantic drama Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Khan was awarded the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting 

Actor. After a brief period of decline in the 2000s, Khan achieved greater stardom in the 2010s by playing

time to come out of it. He established his own image 

with his movies and emerged as one of the leading 

actors among the young generation of Tollywood. He 

is notable for his roles in Varsham, Chatrapathi, Billa, 

Mr Perfect and Mirchi. Prabhas started his movie 

career with Eshwar in 2002 which could not impress 

the audience. However he has received good response

“ 

Prabhas is one actor who has 

stunning screen presence and 

his mighty personality will leave 

everyone in surprise especially in 

action episodes. 

“ 

He has done 

Raghavendra 

next, which 

ended as a 

commercial 

disaster. 

Then came 

Varsham 

which minted huge money and 

proved his stamina at the boxoffice. 

The movie minted Rs 

18 crores in its full run which 

happened to be huge. Prabhas 

could not make it big again post 

Varsham as most of his movies 

ended up as commercial disasters. 

Adavi Ramudu and Chakram 

are the films in the list. He then 

signed a film in the direction of 

SS Rajamouli titled Chatrapathi 

which created sensation all over. 

Prabhas was praised for his 

ease in action sequences. Critics 

noted that there is a unique style 

and macho charm in his screen 

presence. 

Later he acted in Pournami’ ‘Yogi 

and Munna, an action-drama film 

came out in 2007, followed by the 

action-comedyBujjigadu in 2008. 

In 2009 his two films were Billa 

and Ek Niranjan. Billa is a remake 

of the 2007 Tamil film of the same 

name. It also drew inspirations 

from the NTR-starring Telugu 

film, Yugandhar (1979) which 

drew inspirations from Amitabh 

Bachchan’s Hindi film titled Don 

and one of Rajinikanth’s 1980 

Tamil film with the same title. The 

80 

film was commended being stylish 

and visually rich. 

n 2010 he appeared in the romantic 

comedy Darling and in 2011, Mr. 

Perfect, another romantic comedy. 

In 2012, Prabhas starred in Rebel, 

an action film directed by Raghava 

Lawrence. His next film was 

Mirchi opposite Anushka Shetty 

and Richa Gangopadhyay. Mirchi 

opened strong and collected a nett 

gross of about ₹50 crore (US$7.9 

million) in 100 days. Prabhas 

became the 5th tollywood hero to 

enter the 40cr club with this film. 

He gave a friendly appearance 

in the Hindi film Action Jackson 

directed by Prabhudeva, dancing 

opposite Sonakshi Sinha. He also 

rendered voice for a short cameo 

for the filmDenikaina Ready. 

He is playing the title role in the 

period film Baahubali directed 

by SS Rajamouli, for which he 

has beefed up his personality, 

learnt horse riding to portray the 

character of a king. The movie 

trailer released on June 1 has 

received exceptional response. 

Baahubali is the costliest film 

made in the history of Indian 

cinema and Prabhas will be 

seen in two completely different 

roles. Rana Daggubati, Anushka 

and Tamannah played the other 

important leads in the movie. 

Baahubali has been slated for 

release all over on July 10th 

in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil and 

Malayalam languages. Hope the 

film will emerge as the biggest hit 

in the history of Indian cinema.

“ 

The most eligible bachelor has 

been working for Baahubali from 

the past two years and will get 

married soon after the release 

of the film. His parents are 

currently in search for a beautiful

her shoulder was pretty gung ho about the trip and 

was seen having a great time with the family as well. 

Guess where Alia Bhatt decided to take her sister 

Shaheen and her dad, Mahesh Bhatt to! She took 

them Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad, the iconic 

place where Salman Khan decided to get his doting 

sister Arpita Khan married off to her loved one. 

Falaknuma Palace was the wedding venue of Arpita 

Khan and Aayush Sharma, a grand celebrity wedding 

that attracted tons of celebs, high society socialites 

and politicians as well. Alia Bhatt’s dad, Mahesh 

Bhatt had not taken holiday in ages, the trio-Alia, 

Mahesh and Shaheen are seen having a great time at 

the place in Hyderabad. The actress who had injured 

herself just before the International Day Of Yoga is 

recuperating and will soon join her movie team to 

continue shooting for Kapoor & Sons.

ARIES 

CANCER 

This whole month of July 

is exciting, the rhythm is 

fast, and you feel energized 

thanks to Jupiter and 

Uranus. Family matters can 

be tense, Mars brings some 

tension and nervousness 

in the relationships with 

your parents. If you think 

about vacationing with 

your parents, organize your 

schedule in a way you keep 

some independence and 

distance. If you want to meet 

somebody for love, your 

chances are higher until the 

18th as good coincidences 

can happen that makes it 

easy for you to connect with 

a new partner, long-term or 

summer relationship. If you 

are in a couple, you feel like 

partying until the 18th and 

then you take a calmer pace. 

GEMINI 

TAURUS 

You are focused on money: 

a raise motivates you 

to save money. Or you 

make projects that need 

more money than your 

regular budget can allow. 

You think about selling 

stuff on EBay, or saving 

on expenses that are not 

mandatory. You will be 

super smart at that, your 

projections for the future 

sound right and you will 

get rewards. Your parents 

are also happy to help. 

Some Taurus are about 

to move out, they found 

the home of their dreams, 

Venus and Jupiter help 

them to be lucky in that 

sector of their life. If you 

are in a couple, you enjoy 

quiet evenings together. 

No need for crazy night. 

Mercury, Mars and the Sun are in Cancer, be 

ready to be in an important phase of change 

in your life.Easy for you to make decisions as 

you know what you want in a very sharp way, 

no hesitation, no delay in the action. You are 

very good at negotiating with your boss for a 

new position. Some of you are looking for a 

job in a different company and their chances 

to find one are really good, so it is time to ask 

for appointments, as they will be successful 

interviews. Exercise as much as you feel or you 

will be nervous: swim, walk, run, Mars is pushing 

you until August 9th. 

LEO 

From July 1 to 19 Venus and Jupiter 

are in Leo and this conjunction 

brings great condition to meet a 

new love if you are single. And the 

story can be so perfect that you 

may not believe it is true. If you are 

in a couple, commitment is in the 

air, engagement, and wedding or 

simply decide to move in together. 

Mercury enters in Leo July 24, your 

brain is activated, ideas are boiling, 

and you are the first one to find the 

best places to go. You are inspired 

to write or make pictures of your 

vacations. You already try your best 

to be tanned, you love that color on 

your skin. 

Money is priority this month. You want to make sure that 

you have enough for a big project: moving out, remodeling 

your home or travelling. You count your money, examine your 

budget seriously, you don’t want to ask for help, either from 

your parents or your banker. You are invited by friends during 

the weekends and your planning is all full, even if you are on 

vacation, you keep receiving invitations from different people, 

new friends or old ones, you go from one place to another 

one. Love is romantic and you enjoy having fun together and 

you are really busy with the heavy social schedule. But you 

love that of course. 

STAR GAZING 

130

VIRGO 

SAGITTARIUS 

Career is at the top of your priorities in June. You may be 

going through a period of tests, exams, or interviews and it is 

a good time for you. At the end, you will have some choices 

and different options, school or work, you will decide what you 

want. You have to know that Jupiter will enter in your sign in 

August and you will then enter in a very lucky period of your 

life. So be positive and don’t play things at a low level, take 

some risk and dare go to a higher level than what you think. 

Love is not what you want right now, if you are single, you are 

happy to be. Couples are doing ok, just very busy. 

Happy as can be, the Sagittarius lives a 

full life, friends and parties, having fun 

with friends from all over the planet. Your 

personality is expanding and you share 

your joy of life with everyone. People 

love you the way you are because you are 

so easy to be around. No complication, 

no drama, you are not like that. You just 

need your independence and do what 

you want, that’s all. So many invitations 

that are hard to decline. You are already 

thinking about the next trips you will 

organize after the one that will just 

happen soon. 

SCORPIO 

Saturn is back and you need to 

finish for good some relationship 

that you feel forced to keep, in 

the name of long-time friendship, 

or faithfulness, or pity or any 

bad reasons that keep you in the 

relationship. Why do you want 

to stay friend with an ex? For 

example, when it is over, it is over. 

A new friendship is influencing 

you positively and you listen to 

the good advice he or she gives 

you. Love can be so romantic that 

it is the only thing you can think 

about, especially if you start a new 

relationship. You go together on 

a trip even if you make up your 

mind last minute. 

LIBRA 

Your life is all about friend, 

socializing, going out, social 

Medias, popularity and 

personal branding. You know 

how to improve your look 

and to adapt it to any type 

of situation, sophisticated or 

sportswear, conservative or 

trendy…you always have the 

right accessories, the it-bag 

or the shoes that make you 

look unique. Mars is in Cancer 

in your professional sector 

is bringing some interesting 

proposition, an offer that 

needs some time to think 

about as you are satisfied 

already with what you have. 

Feel free to say no if you are 

not sure. Other opportunities 

may happen later anyway. 

CAPRICORN 

If you are in a couple, this is your 

priority, your loved one is your 

number one. July is a period where 

you want to spend all your time, 

vacation or not, with your lover. You 

are loving, flirtatious, aggressive, 

adorable, your mood swings 

unexpectedly but you still want to 

spend your time together. You are in 

a moment of deep transformation 

inside, you keep evolving, breaking 

inner limitations. Your personality is 

expanding and it is not always easy. 

Take breaks and relax, no need to stay 

under pressure, it is summer now, and 

the sun has a good influence on your 

health and also your mood. 

AQUARIUS 

PISCES 

Enter all of the sweepstakes and contests that you can on 

the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, and sign up for free memberships, 

call in old debts, clip coupons - you deserve everything 

that comes your way, Aquarius dear, and you shouldn’t 

have to work for it! You’re a true inspiration to others 

on the 7th and 8th, especially young children. When you 

have the chance to be a mentor and shape young minds, 

you step up to the challenge big time. There’s some 

bizarre stuff happening on the 13th and 14th, mostly 

involving older relatives or someone from your past. 

Before you dismiss something as ‘unbelievable,’ look at 

all the facts. Stranger things have happened! Haven’t 

they?! You’re a great negotiator on the 25th and 26th, 

and your arguments are very balanced. 

You feel inspired at an artistic level, you want to create 

something beautiful and unique. Painting, drawing, 

making photos, your eyes are inspired by what is 

around you, flowers or beach, or sunsets, or people 

around you. You are also so romantic, so considerate 

with the one you love: attentions, notes, little gift, 

rubbing his or her back with sunscreen in a sensual 

way. Of course you expect the same in return, but 

you have to understand that not everybody is like 

you. Some signs like Virgos or Capricorns are more 

reserved, they try but they may not be as creative as 

you are.
