Trisha on cloud nine

Trisha has done it again, stealing the limelight with another memorable performance in Krishna. Teaming up with Ravi Teja, she's shown that she has an impeccable ability to pick the right films. Trade pundits say that Krishna could well turn out to be one of the biggest hits of the year. Her last release, the Venky starrer Aadavari Maatalaku Ardhale Verule was also a huge hit. But that was over a year ago and in the meanwhile however, heroines like Anushka, Bhumika, Nayantara and Kajal have ruled the roost. The success of Krishna has put Trisha right back in contention for the top slot, her long absence not withstanding. Great going Trisha!

Chiranjeevi's next is Tagore sequel

The speculation over the director's name for Chiru's next is going on and on. Though the chances are high for Krishna Vamsi to be roped in it is still to be confirmed.

On the other hand veteran writers Paruchuri brothers are busy scripting for the film.

This film will deal with the contemporary issues like Tagore, says Paruchuri Venkateswara Rao. "If Tagore fought against the evil in his own style, the hero character in this film fights against the corrupted system in a different way. The subject is shaping up well and I am pretty much sure that this film will become a huge hit and creates sensation all over with the points discussed" he added.

So should we call this as sequel to Tagore?
