&nbsp;Adivi Sesh created a niche for himself doing spy thrillers like Goodachari. Kshanam, Evaru, HIT The Second Case, Major and Dacoit. He is also having sequel to Goodachari titled G2.Now, it is coming out that Adivi Sesh is showing interest in love stories. One of his project happens to be helmed by Sai Marthand of Little Hearts fame. He said “These two scripts really stood out to me because they approach love and relationships in very different ways. They’re not just love stories, they’re about people, vulnerability, and the choices that define us. That’s something I’m very excited to explore as an actor,”On G2, he shared “We wanted to tell a story that has our flavor—our sense of what a spy can be — but make it a very personal story rather than just an adventure. We wanted to take that national and international. So we have Emraan Hashmi sir, we have Wamiqa Gabbi,”He shared “I would love to meet Jai and Veeru, have the fun Dharmendra saab had, and be brooding like Mr Bachchan.”

&nbsp;&nbsp;Sai Pallavi's Bollywood debut film Ek Din with Aamir Khan's son Junaid Khan turned out to be a huge disaster at the box office.Now, Sai Pallavi, speaking to scribes shared her thoughts on it. She said &nbsp;“It is not about the scale of a film that drives me. At that point of time in my life, I had done a lot of films which were heavy and I wanted to do something that was light… that did not have me carry a lot of trauma through the making and even after. So when the script came along, I thought this is going to be in the zone of Before Sunrise. Because I like Before Sunrise and I thought this is going to be like that.”Sai Pallavi after the premier, when Aamir asked her to say something, said &nbsp;“I don't think I was meant to do this and I think I am miscast. I feel so, I think it should have been a new person who had little bit of a flamboyance.”&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;Theatre owners in Andhra Pradesh have asked the government for a 20% share from hiked ticket prices. A group of exhibitors met Cinematography Minister Kandula Durgesh and gave a proposal. They say the extra money from ticket hikes should also go to theatres, not just producers and distributors.The idea is to help cinema halls manage high running costs. Many exhibitors feel this change can save theatres that are under money pressure. The main reason for this request is rising expenses. Electricity bills, AC maintenance, staff salaries, and daily upkeep have become very costly. Some multiplexes in AP are paying close to 15 lakh rupees per month just for AC power bills.Single-screen theatres are also finding it hard to meet costs. Theatre owners say that without extra support, it is tough to give good facilities to the audience. Exhibitors have now asked Minister Kandula Durgesh to take this issue to Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu. They want a quick and positive decision.

But it is 10 seats short of the 118 needed for majority in the 234 member Assembly.Governor Vishnu Dev Varma has now asked TVK to give support letters from 118 MLAs by Friday. Because of this, Vijay’s swearing in ceremony has been cancelled. This is an unexpected setback for Thalapathy Vijay. TVK leader Aadhav Arjuna met the Governor at Raj Bhavan and asked for a chance to form the government. He said they can prove majority on the Assembly floor after the oath.But the Governor did not agree and said proof must come first. If TVK fails to show 118 MLAs by Friday, the Governor may keep the Assembly under suspended animation for six months. In that time, other parties can try to form the government. Congress won 5 seats and was expected to support TVK, but now that support is not clear.This twist has started new talk in political circles. Reports say DMK and AIADMK leaders may be checking options for an alternative alliance if TVK cannot reach the magic number.
