Koratala Shiva is enjoying a great deal of success and attention after the back to back successes of ‘Mirchi’ and ‘Srimanthudu’. He is now handling ‘Janatha Garage’ with NTR and shooting is currently going on. One look at Koratala Shiva’s working style is enough to tell you why he is getting such success. He is a perfectionist who does not let even the minutest detail escape his eye. If he is not happy with even the way an actor breathes during a scene, he goes for a retake. That level of detail and care are now being put in for Janatha Garage as well. The movie is going to release on August 12th and Samantha is the heroine in this movie. Mohanlal and Nithya Menen are playing important roles. Jantha Garage is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers banner and Devi Sri Prasad is composing the music.
Director Puri Jagan’s fascination and relationship with Bangkok is well known. He usually goes to that place for completing his script work as well as to take a break from shooting.

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s film is going to have a launch on the 29th of this month and we have already written about it. Now we have learnt another interesting snippet about that date. Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s movie in S.J. Surya’s direction might also be launched on the same day. The team is currently evaluating the options and a formal announcement may come in a day or two. The movie’s details are still not clear, though a lot of speculations are making the rounds. Pawan’s ‘Sardaar Gabbar Singh’ failed at the Box Office and this movie will now be very important for both fans as well as distributors. S.J. Surya gave a superhit to Pawan Kalyan with Khushi. But he also gave a huge flop to Pawan through Komaram Puli.
Mega Producer Allu Aravind has opened up about the way in which Geetha Arts does business. Unlike other banners, Geetha Arts does not sell off all areas for a film before release. Only a few areas are sold off and the rest are released directly by Geetha. In today’s success meet, Allu Aravind revealed the logic behind his move. “We make films with passion and with belief. We believe in standing by our film and taking a risk with own release, as we believe in our product and have good chance of making more money than by giving out to distributors before release”, he said. It clearly makes sense as Geetha Arts has a strong distribution network in many areas across the state, after Dil Raju and Suresh Productions. This model of release gives them greater flexibility and control over the number of theaters to employ etc. as well as on revenues.
