Bhanumati
opts out of Bhargav Arts
D.
Bhanumati Rama Krishna, the great actress of yesteryears, has opted
out of Bhargav Arts. She cited her health as the deterrent for opting
out of the film. She also confides that she is peeved by the step motherly
treatment the project of Bhargav arts was given by the hero. The project's
Muhurat was postponed twice and the schedules kept on shifting by months
as the hero Bala Krishna gave bulk dates to Balaji arts film which was
due for release in December 2001. In addition to that, Dr. Bhanumati
was asked for 45 call sheets. Since the shooting is going to take place
in Hyderabad and Vizag and Bhanumati lives in Chennai, the travel was
also of biggest concern. All the fans of Smt. Bhanumati Rama Krishna
are in for great disappoint after learning her opting out. It is not
clear, who is taken for the role meant for Padmasri Bhanumati Rama Krishna.
It could be either Roja or KR Vijaya. The Bhargav Arts film is expected
to be released in April 2002.
Mahesh
Babu sets on America Jaunt
The unit of Jayant Falcrum Cinergies would be going to Chennai on Wednesday
this week for obtaining the visa to shoot in USA. If the unit gets visa
granted, then they would leave for USA on Thursday. Due to the USA terrorist
attacks, the producers of air travel have become stricter in USA and
India. That means, the raw film has to go through the various detector,
which would risk the film getting exposed. Hence, the producer is planning
to buy the raw film in USA and also developing the film after USA shooting
is completed. It costs a fortune for the producer. Even then, they are
going ahead with their ambitious USA shooting. Talking to idlebrain.com,
Jayant mentioned that even James Cameron was not spared from sporadic
problems like these. He is hopeful of getting USA shooting done without
any hurdles.
