Malaika Arora speaking to scribes reacted on dating rumours. She said &ldquo;He is somebody who is so very important to me and someone who is such an integral part of my life. Whatever may be. I don&rsquo;t really want to talk too much about my past or what my future may be&hellip; enough and more has been written about it. Enough and more has been splashed all over, kind of become a bit of a media feeding ground sort of space.&rdquo;\r\nOn her breakup with Arjun Kapoor, she said &ldquo;People like talking. If you are spotted with somebody, you go out, and it becomes a huge discussion. I don&rsquo;t really want to give chatter unnecessarily, too much of fuel. I don&rsquo;t want to do that because it really doesn&rsquo;t serve any purpose. \r\nTrust me, every time I have stepped out, even if it&rsquo;s a longtime friend, a gay friend, a married friend, an old friend, a manager or anybody, I am immediately linked to that person. We laughed and joked about it. My mother calls me and asks, &lsquo;Who is this now, baby? Who are they talking about?&rsquo; It has just become laughable.&rdquo;

\r\nSreeleela, a star heroine in Telugu cinema, has reportedly taken a pay cut for her recent Tamil film Parashakthi. The actress, known for her glamorous performances and high profile projects, has reduced her remuneration from â‚¹3-4 crore to â‚¹1 crore for the film.

\r\nRadhika Apte dreams of changing working hours. Radhika Apte known for her frank views speaking to scribes, shared her thoughts on working hours.\r\nShe said&nbsp; \"I\'ll change the working hours to begin with. You can\'t expect someone to go an entire week without seeing their child. I\'ve had multiple conversations and arguments over refusing to do long shifts. You\'ll be surprised at how much one has to fight. I find it quite baffling. And people say have a nanny and let them come on set. I\'m sorry, but that\'s really not the answer.\"\r\nRadhika Apte continued&nbsp; \"non-negotiables when signing a script.\" She said that she would \"appreciate a five-day work week and a 12-hour shift.\" \"I\'ve started putting my foot down and a lot of people haven\'t liked it. I can\'t work beyond 12 hours. And that includes everything from travel, hair, makeup, and the shoot itself. If my travel takes two hours, then the shift has to be planned accordingly. Of course, there can be exceptions to this but that\'s my non-negotiable. I insist on weekly offs and ideally wouldn\'t want to work more than five days a week. Unless it is a small film where the project genuinely can\'t function. I\'d appreciate a five day a week and a 12-hour shift.\"\r\n

He with his natural and realistic performance took the scenes to another level. He with his style and swag endears himself to all with his screen presence. He delivered dialogues with ease and impressed with his mannerisms.\r\nMeenakshi Chaudhary looked gorgeous and beautiful on the big screen. She is ok with her performance. He danced energetically in the songs.\r\nThere are many known actors in the film they performed according to their roles. Tarak Ponnappa is ok in his role. Rao Ramesh got a limited role while Chammak Chandra,&nbsp; Mahesh Achanta,Bhadram evoked few laughs.\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Anaganaga Oka Raju Movie: Technicians Review</h2>\r\nAnaganaga Oka Raju\'s story is provided by newcomer Maari. Infact the film virtually has no story. He depended on generating humour in all the scenes and entertain movie lovers. For most of the part in the first half, everything turns out to be routine. Even the so called comedy scenes are drawn from previous other films offering nothing new.\r\nTe only saving grace is Naveen Polishetty who elevated even the routine scenes. His hilarious antics and comic acts entertain movie lovers taking the narration forward. Naveen Polishetty\'s character, the scenes featuring Meenakshi Chaudhary and Rao Ramesh offers nothing new along with the scenes involving other characters. The first half ends with a predictable interval twist setting the tone for the second half making viewers expect a better one.\r\nThe entire second half focusses on rivarly, election campaigning and even the entertainment quotient drops considerabaly. The pre climax is loaded with emotional scenes before the film comes to an end with a routine fight. There is nothing much to talk about the story, screenplay and direction and it seems the the director and the writer concentrated only on few hilarious scenes drawing inspiration from the youtube shorts and reels.\r\nThe music and background music is tuned by Mickey J Meyer. The tune for Bheemavaram Balma is good. The song is shot in the backdrop of visually appealing sets. The other songs just turned out to be just below average. The background score tuned failed to add value to the scenes.\r\nYuvraj\'s cinematography is just ok. It is in sync with the story and is barely average. The editing could have been far better. There are many scenes that slowed the pace of the narration. Production values are good.\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Anaganaga Oka Raju: Advantages</h2>\r\n<ul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-size: 17px; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Naveen Polishetty</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Hilarous Scenes</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Anaganaga Oka Raju: Disadvantages</h2>\r\n<ul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-size: 17px; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Lacks Story</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Climax</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Anaganaga Oka Raju Movie: Rating Analysis</h2>\r\nAltogether, Anaganaga Oka Raju turns out to be a witty entertainer minus a real story. Director Maari on debut managed to entertain viewers with hilarious scenes featuring Naveen Polishetty though the film had no story. Though Maari held the direction mantle, it was Naveen Polishetty who had a say in the story and weilded considerable influence.\r\nThe trio comprising of Naveen Polishetty, Maari and Chinmay decided to concentrate on Naveen\'s trademark hilarious antics and included scenes drawing inspiration from social media shorts and reels. The first half after the routine elements, picks pace in the screenplay and narration and Naveen\'s witty oneliners and mannerisms and gags make viewers smile heartily.\r\nWith the first half ending in a predictable and decent tone after a not so sedate start, many expected a better second half. However the second half turned out to be even more weaker and it seems the trio lost the direction just by concentrating only on village politics.\r\nIn a hialarious and comical films, one neednot have a strong story. If the hilarious dialogues and jokes manage to create laughting riot, there is no stopping the film\'s success. In Anaganaga Oka Raju, Naveen Polishetty scored only average marks as the screenpley lacked consistency. Little finetuning of the script, racy screenplay and better second half would have taken the film to the next level. Considering all these elements,&nbsp;Cinejosh goes with a 2.75 rating for Anaganaga Oka Raju.

I can only use this platform to speak to people and address the fact that it&rsquo;s nice to be kind, and it&rsquo;s important to give space,&rdquo;\r\nShe added&nbsp; &ldquo;Of course, security matters, but more than that, it&rsquo;s the crowd and the audience that need to understand how important it is for women and for people in general to feel safe. Conversations are happening now, people are more vigilant, but there needs to be better and real change.&rdquo;\r\n
