As long as bw keeps worshipping their average talents like Ranbir, Ranveer etc as some God’s gifts to the planet.


Sitting on a BW forum & dissing Bollywood stars, praising South Below Average stars who themselves are product of Nepotism 🤣


Ek GQ Award kya mila, whole thread is filled with Allu Bhajans =)) 😆


I am sure soon forum's name might even change to ALLU FORUM 👏

OMG Really? They dropped Kajal because she was pregnant? WTH.. And was she supposed to star opposite Chiranjeevi?

Yes. They dropped her from movie coz she was married and pregnant and gave super lame excuses like oh we thought she deserved better, her role was not adding anything to the movie blah blah.. all this AFTER completing the movie a year before its release and her being part of its popular song which was on air for an year thanks to the pandemic!

No wonder this movie bombed and rightfully. Knowing how Charan has worked with Kajal previously, I didn’t expect this, thought she was a good friend. Kajal had amazing chemistry with both Charan Arjun.

I think she was upset and didn't expect such treatment by them but kept quiet as they are biggies and she didn't wanted to ruffle feathers. And she was experiencing the best phase of her life too so I guess she simply chose to move on. Also they made the director do all the dirty work for them so all the blame went to him.

Chiranjeevi was talented but he became a superstar only after he married Surekha. Allu Ramalingaiah had tremendous goodwill in the industry and he put it all behind his son in law. And Allu Aravind is a very intelligent and shrewd businessman. He literally planned it all and made chiranjeevi what he is today. Not just chiranjeevi but also Pawan Kalyan's stardom is all very carefully curated by Aravind.


Pity Allu Aravind couldn't curate the career of Naga Babu, Chiranjeevi's brother, who debuted as a hero. Or for him, who couldn't become a hero. He had expressed the desire a few times. Or make Geetha Arts (the production house) big despite being launched several years before Chiranjeevi's debut. Pity he couldn't use the same narrative (Allu Ramalingaiah's legacy career) from Allu Arjun's debut.



Stardom, Superstar status back then can't be compared or seen with today's lens. One reached 'Superstar' status after years of hard work and consistency as a 'star'. Chiranjeevi was 'talented' and got recognition and box office success within his first few releases. A trait common with all 'stars' back in those days.



He stood out in supporting/negative parts. He had done a K Balachandar movie before marriage itself. But, more than that, he had done 10 films in a year before marriage and had another ten on floors. Only the really accepted heroes, aka stars could get/do so many films in those days. A lesser-accepted hero/star will be doing slightly fewer films (varying according to the respective industry standards). Chiranjeevi was a young star by the time of marriage itself. Again, he did not become a 'Superstar' right after marriage. It is the same with, say, Rajinikanth, who got anointed as Superstar after more than sixty films.


Heck, even someone like Mohan Babu (a non-existent star currently) reached big stardom without any support after years of hard work. He gave big blockbusters and, at his peak, beat Chiranjeevi's movie and delivered Industry Hit. He couldn't maintain consistency and faded out eventually. Vikram had a similar career. Vijay Deverakonda might have a similar career, though much more difficult now to become number one. The bottom line is that once established as a talented actor with stardom there is no looking back, with or without backing.



The Sr Allu narrative is a very recent one and directed at those who have no clue about the past. There have been many legendary comedians, supporting actors, and character artists in Telugu cinema. Who can be bigger than SVR in that regard? Everyone had goodwill in the industry, but they are obsolete now, everyone except SVR. But do people remember his grandson's debut? The same would be the case with Allu without two and half decades of Chiru. His stardom helped Allu Aravind establish/strengthen the framework that is now helping the current generation. It is not the other way around.

Fact is that Aravind worked as a producer before Chiranjeevi became his brother in law. And Chiranjeevi was known as this talented and hardworking upcoming actor. Not many know that Chiranjeevi was a trained actor not just random guy who started acting as a hobby. But both of them clicked when they got together. That's when Chiranjeevi became a superstar and Aravind became a star producer. They also stuck together coz of the caste politics that went on in the industry and in the process grew powerful. Nagababu didn't click coz he's simply not as talented as his brothers. Chiranjeevi and Aravind both tried a lot to prop him up Chiranjeevi even set him up a PH Anjana productions to settle him despite him having GA at his beck n call but Nagababu still did not click. PK when made his debut was marketed as the hero who is a well trained martial artist. Aravind made him do crazy stunts in his debut movie got him ANR's granddaughter as his co-star (huge deal in those days) and to top it Chiranjeevi had this crazy fan following by then who blindly backed kalyanbabu who was said to be like a son to Chiranjeevi n very close to him. So I will stick by what I said. It is Aravind who curated the stardom of Chiranjeevi,PK,Arjun and to an extent Charan as we know it today. To his credit he seems to be astute enough to bet only on lambi race ke ghode and not on lame horses even if that lame horse is his own son.
