Megastar Celebrates His Proud Moment With His Family!

It is well-known that Megastar Chiranjeevi received the prestigious Padma Vibhushan award from Indian President Sri Draupadi Murmu on Thursday. It was a proud moment not just for him and his family but for the entire Telugu population. He was accompanied by his wife Surekha Konidela, daughter Sushmita Konidela, his son Ram Charan and his daughter-in-law Upasana Konidela.

We can see the pride in all of their eyes and it is great to see them as one happy family on the special occasion of Chiranjeevi receiving the second highest civilian award. Chiranjeevi looked very classy and formal while Ram Charan looked cool in all black. Sureka and Sushmita Konidela turned up in elegant sarees while Upasana wore a floral dress. The entire Mega clan is honored and they feel that no one is more deserving than the legendary actor.

On the work front, Chiranjeevi is working on a socio-fantasy film titled ‘Vishwambhara’. Produced by UV Creations, Vassishtha is the writer and director of this film. Trisha Krishnan is the female lead and the movie is being made on a massive budget.

The makers are planning to release this flick on 10th January 2025. MM Keeravani is the music composer. Esha Chawla and Surbhi are playing the sister roles of Chiranjeevi and Ashika Rangnath is also being linked to this project.

₹835 Crore Ramayana: Why the Huge Budget?

The buzz surrounding Bollywood director Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana just keeps growing, and with it, the controversy. After casting rumors and reported walkouts, the film’s Huge budget of ₹835 crore for the first part has set the internet on fire.

This three-part Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita, is poised to become the most expensive film ever made in India. Shooting has recently begun in Mumbai, with Kannada superstar Yash playing the antagonist Ravana. The film also boasts a multi-lingual cast, reflecting the epic’s pan-Indian appeal.

So, what justifies this staggering budget? Mumbai trade sources hint at a visually stunning experience, crafted with cutting-edge technology to captivate a global audience. The post-production work alone is expected to take over a year, further hinting at a commitment to creating a special effects extravaganza.

However, this ambition comes at a cost. Critics question whether such a hefty price tag can be justified, especially considering the success of previous Indian films made on a smaller scale. Only time will tell if Ramayana becomes a visual and commercial triumph or an extravagant gamble.
