Priyadarshini Ram Reddy aka Sakshi Ram Anna playing Hide & Seek game

Priyadarshini Ram Reddy, also referred to as Meesala Ram Reddy in the media circles, appears to have gone into virtual hiding, after he was unceremoniously necked out of Sakshi, the media house promoted by YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy about two months ago.

Ram Reddy brought professionalism and work culture to Sakshi and in fact, was considered to be a synonym for Sakshi. For the readers, he was popularly known as Ram Annayya and for the others, he was “Sakshi Ram Reddy.” Such was his attachment with that media house.

After quitting Sakshi, Ram Reddy is nowhere to be seen. Initially, he told a couple of friends that he would make a foray into film making, but one does not know what happened to the project after that. There was also a talk that he would take over as CEO of I-News Channel, but later, it turned out to be just a rumour. He even reportedly tried to get closer to Rajya Sabha member K V P Ramachandra Rao in the recent past; may be to revive his old advertisement business. But after seeing KVP shaking hands with Jaganmohan Reddy at a wedding recently, Ram Reddy dropped the idea, thinking that KVP and Jagan might join hands with each other again.

Now, Ram Reddy is believed to have switched off his mobile and is not responding even to his friends’ calls. May be he will come out with a bang with his new venture!

TANA actively helping students of University of Northern Virgini - More Details

On July 28h, 2011, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) initiated action against University of Northern Virginia (www.unva.edu) and served with a Notice of Intent to withdraw (NOWI) ability to enroll or maintain International students admitted under Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVIS).

The majority of International population at the University consists of students from India reportedly from Andhra Pradesh. The Situation is vastly different from the “Trivalley Situation” where in the investigation was on the students and their SEVIS status was changed from ACTIVE to TERMINATED. However, in the case of UNVA, the focus is on the University and its inability to follow rules set forth by SEVIS for International Students. There have been no arrests or detentions or electronic monitoring and the SEVIS status of students is unchanged and continues to be ACTIVE for their approved duration of study.

The University would not be immediately shut down but would be given a one month notice for explanation. Currently enrolled students would be able to continue education and finish the term after which has two options. a) . Seek transfer to another SEVIS approved University. b) Or seek voluntary return to India

In a notice on their website (www.ice.gov/sevis/unva) ICE has informed the UNA student that they have two choices - continue to attend classes and maintain their active status or seek transfer to another SEVP approved institution. UNVA does not have access to SEVIS and will not be able to issue new I-20s for new students and will also not be able to manage non-immigrant students’ records in SEVIS.

The Telugu Association of North America (TANA) has immediately started to work with accredited and SEVIS approved schools to allow UNVA students to transfer seamlessly into their programs in a timely manner so that they do not lose continuity in academic progress as they work towards obtaining the degrees of their choice.

In a notice issued to its members, urged people in the Northern Virginia area to contact the students and provide immediate and long term support in this difficult period of transition to other schools. Students can also directly contact TANA by calling any of the TEAM SQUARE members in the Virginia region. Or sending an email to team@tana.org.

TANA President, Prasad Thotakura is actively working with authorities to ensure that all students are protected from detention and voluntary departure and also ensuring that the students are in compliance with SEVIS rules at this critical juncture. Under his leadership, the entire Executive committee and Board of TANA are very actively engaged in discussion with accredited, licensed and SEVIS approved schools to facilitate immediate transition and continuity in education.

For immediate assistance, legal help or need for counseling with status issues, students in the Northern Virginia region can the following TANA office bearers:

Satish Vemana (Treasurer, TANA): 7030731-8367; Subba Kolla (Foundation Trustee): 703-728-1573


Trilok Kantheti (Regional Representative-Capitol): 703-585-3565; Ashok Kolla (Chair – NRI Student Services): 270-293-0003

Update on Srija Sirish Bharadwaj Family Court Case

The latest development in the Sirish-Sreeja marital trouble case is that Sirish has surrendered himself in the Nampally Court after his valiant efforts to secure an anticipatory bail went in vain. However, those who were present at the court premises during his surrendering revealed a touching incident.

It is heard that after surrendering himself, Sirish cried a lot. The talk is that he wanted to see his daughter Nivruthi and was missing her a lot. It seems Sirish reportedly said “I have not harassed anyone. I can’t say things openly right now. But I am really worried about Nivruthi. I want to live with my daughter.”

Those who have been following the case are remarking that so far, Chiranjeevi has successfully kept Sreeja away from talking to the media so they are keen on knowing her side of the story. For now, it appears that Sirish is going through some severe emotional turmoil due to all this.

Speak Asia COO Tarak Bajpai arrested in Multi Level Marketing Scam

Indore: The Mumbai police has arrested the chief operating officer of an online survey company for alleged financial irregularities, police said Friday.

Tarak Bajpai, the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Speak Asia, an online survey company, was arrested late last night in connection with a forgery case from the Vijay Nagar police station area, City Superintendent of Police Amarinder Singh said.

Singh, who refused to give further details, said that Bajpai was being taken to Mumbai for detailed interrogation.

The Singapore-based company Speak Asia, which is yet to be incorporated as a company in India, charges a membership fee of Rs 11,000 for a year. The members are expected to conduct online surveys for clients of the firm. Members are paid for conducting the surveys.

Following a controversy in May this year over the company's operations, an investors protection group filed a public interest litigation (PIL) in the Bombay High Court. - PTI

'Say No To Drugs' - Anti Drug Campaign by Kalamandir Kalyan on Aug 15th @ KBR Park

Is a famous textile business organization blackmailing the Telugu stars known as ‘Kalaakars’? This is the interesting talk happening in filmnagar. Honestly, the growth of Kalamandir is attributed to the role of cinema biggies. Sponsoring costumes for films, organizing premiers and sponsoring them are some of the programs which brought good visibility to this organization and Kalamandir grew by leaps within short span. It is still continuing to grow big.

By nature, Kalyan, the owner of Kalamandir is a lover of arts and that’s why he was persistent on becoming a member in the censor board so that he can build relations with film people. However, you must be wondering why an organization like that is blackmailing heroes. Here is the story.

It is known news that the drugs scandal is shaking the Telugu film industry. Under this situation, the new initiative of Kalamandir titled ‘Anti Drug Campaign’ has gained a lot of significance. With a slogan that says ‘Say No To Drugs’, the organization is all set to take off with a huge rally on August 15th evening at the KBR Park in Hyderabad. This has led to all heroes taking part in the program mandatory.

If they don’t, they stand the risk of being linked to drugs or drugs scandal. Usually, our heroes’ attitude is like ‘What’s in it for me’ like Kota Srinivasa Rao in ‘Aha Naa Pellanta’. But looking at the current situation, they have no choice but to attend it. That’s why few cine seniors are jovially commenting that the Kalamandir folks are emotionally blackmailing the ‘Kalaakars’. Jokes apart, Kalamandir has also set up an NPO called ‘Kalamandir Foundation’ and they have been taking up several charity programs as part of that which is quite appreciable.

Shocking Reason Behind Chiru's 'Padmabhushan'

It is known news that megastar Chiranjeevi is awarded the prestigious Padmabhushan but did you know that there is a big plan behind it? Well, there is something like that, say few sources. Well, the buzz is that the Padmabhushan award was the result of master mind Allu Aravind’s strong lobbying.

Now, the talk is that the reason for targeting the Padmabhushan award is something very interesting. Whenever an individual becomes a Padma award holder then IT folks don’t go near that person just like that. It is a very big process to go and raid the house of a Padma award winner by IT department. And Aravind knows at that time that a gush of big amount is going to come to Chiru’s house once he floats new party. Hence he has taken this precautionary measure. Wow! What a mastermind is Allu Aravind?!

The Indian government gives that as recognition to honour a person’s integrity and service mindedness. So it is next to impossible that the IT folks will conduct any raids. That’s why it is heard that Aravind joined hands with Dasari Narayana Rao and did that. A source close to Aravind revealed “Otherwise they will not do anything just like that.”

Film IndustryJunior Artistes trapping Software Engineers @ Bus Stops

It is known that houseflies circumambulate a piece of sweet. Similarly where there is money, many businesses surround. One such business is prostitution, which is age old.

The junior artistes in film industry are aiming at the software engineers those are drawing salaries in lakhs of rupees. They are coming up wearing sexy outfits and acting as if they are waiting for a bus in a bus-stop. They pretend to be shopping walking in front of software engineers whom they are targeting.

The software engineers are also finding it pleasure to fall in the trap of such ladies for carnal pleasures at a few thousands of bucks.

But some junior artistes are very sane that they are trapping some affluent SW engineers in such away that they are deciding to marry. While a few cases are ending up with hasty marriages, some ladies are pulling out lakhs of rupees from SW engineers keeping them in emotional trap of marriage.

Yes, sex is very powerful tool that women may see the downfall from a man to kingdom!

Income Tax officers enjoying Tollywood Heroines

Lately, it is being noticed that the Income Tax officials have been focusing a lot on the cinema circuit. Their attacks started at Bollywood then came to Tollywood and now they have not even spared Mollywood as the top stars Mohanlal and Mammootty are going through few grilling sessions out there.

While most of the celebrities are doing their bit to resolve the matter, here is an update. This has to do with a top league heroine who also came under the IT scanner but she chose a different approach. It is heard that this hot babe got feelers from IT folks for an evening of drinks.

Understanding the inner meaning behind it, the heroine obliged. As a result, it is heard that while the chosen IT officers made the most of the night with her, the dusky beauty was able to come out of the IT net using her sexy hourglass curves and oomph factor as the net. Talk about mutual benefit folks!! Indeed, it is said that she got a waiver from getting a few crores of black money seized by IT officials with this offering.

So casting couch is not just limited to some directors and producers but also extended to some Income Tax officers.

'Namaste Telangana' News Paper failed to attract in Telangana region?

It was with great hype and hoopla the newspaper ‘Namaste Telangana’ was launched and sources say the man behind that is TRS head K Chandrasekhar Rao. Speculations were making rounds that this would give a very tough fight to big players like Eenadu, Sakshi in the Telangana region.

However, a close source working with the T-movement and based in Warangal came up with an interesting fact. He revealed “Namaste Telangana got huge opening response like a big hero’s film Anna. Right in the first week, the subscription touched one lakh fifty thousand copies.”

He added “But within one week, it came down drastically. The number came to sixty thousand and those who took it in beginning have gone back to Eenadu and Sakshi. They cannot be blamed because if you read ‘Namaste Telangana’ you will notice that most of the things are taken from Andhra Jyothi and other newspapers and rewritten. And the quality is very poor. Overall, the newspaper has become an utter failure in Telangana.”

Telangana Cable Operators to ban TV9 New Channel in Telangana region?

The leading Telugu news channel TV9 has earned the wrath of the Telangana protagonists because of its alleged biased coverage of events pertaining to the statehood movement.

The stand-off has now reached a flashpoint with the Telangana Cable Operators’ Joint Action Committee deciding to boycott the channel across the region from Monday.

As a result, the channel will be blacked out in the region till it mends its ways. The JAC has issued notices to this effect to the Telangana MSOs (Multiple System Operators).

The JAC has accused the TV9 management of adopting a deliberate anti-Telangana stand and twisting the developments to suit its position.

The latest incident that triggered the confrontation was the suicide of Yadi Reddy, a youth from Moinabad in Ranga Reddy district, in the heart of Delhi.

The Cable Operators’ JAC has alleged that TV9 had deliberately blacked out the coverage. The suicide incident was completely ignored by the channel. It was not mentioned even as a scroll.

However, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi legislator T Harish Rao beating up an official of the Andhra Pradesh Bhavan was played up by the channel. It repeatedly showed the footage.

Journalist minting money by blackmailing an IAS Officer

There is nothing like “morality” these days, when it comes to making money. One has seen this phenomenon in politics, film industry, sports and in extreme cases, in judiciary. Well, add one more to this list -- journalism.

It is now an open secret that values in journalism have gone down very much and some journalists have stooped to so low that they don’t even mind resorting to act as pimps to make a quick buck.

An episode of one such journalist has come to light recently, which has become hot topic, albeit in hush tone, in the media circles.

This particular journalist had made his “wife” sleep with an IAS officer, who was considered to be eyes and ears of the previous Y S Rajasekhara Reddy government.

Why we have mentioned the word wife in quotes was: she is not actually his wife, but a girl hired by the scribe to act as his wife. He had taken a fully-furnished house for rent for this woman in a prime locality and one fine day, invited the said IAS officer to the house. He introduced the woman as his wife, who served food and liquor to the officer and finally, herself.

The scribe shot the entire affair with a secret camera and started blackmailing the IAS officer.

The incident happened six years ago and in the last six years, the journalist made not less than Rs 2 lakh per month in the form of advertisements using the officer’s influence for his not-so-popular publication.

The officer could get rid of this scribe only recently, when he was transferred to some remote posting. Well, that is the real life story. Anybody wants to make a film?

Software Engineers' 'Live In' Relationship Carze

The fad for the IT industry and the craze for software professionals needs no introduction. The best bet for that is the parents of many eligible bachelors and spinsters who can’t see the world beyond the IT sector. Anyways, here is something they should know before they blind themselves with the ignorance.

It is heard that areas such as Madhapur, Kondapur which has a strong concentration of software people are following a new trend. Boys and girls from other states and parts of Andhra Pradesh are posing as ‘couples’ and taking flats and accommodations. Though they are not married, life for them is going like husband and wife.

Sources say once pressure builds from family end to get married, they are opting for NRIs or those who have craze for software profiles and settling without issues. The amount of free sex which is rolling in the hitec area sure goes to show where our cosmopolitan culture is heading.

Katrina about Rahul Gandhi commented as Half-Indian

Katrina Kaif commented about Rahul Gandhi today. Katrina says Rahul is just like me "Half Indian".

Katrina Kaif, who is half- Kashmiri and half-British, has been able to create a niche for herself in Bollywood after striving hard for years.

However, the lady who recently celebrated her 27th birthday has been surrounded by controversies owing to her origin and her nationality.

Even her arch rival and contemporary Deepika Padukone had publicly expressed her desire to take a sneak peek at Katrina’s passport in Karan Johar’s talk show `Koffee With Karan`. Just like Deepika, there are many more who often keep discussing her background.

In an interview to a leading daily, Katrina candidly confessed that she does get touchy at times on constantly being questioned about her origin.

She said, “Yes. Because people are insinuating that there is something wrong in it! Please understand that I am not – I assure you, I promise you – I am not the only half-Asian half-British person alive on this planet!”

Surprisingly news channels in India have a photo copy of Katrina’s passport with them.

“My passport`s copies are with every news channel in this country – don`t ask me how they got them. Everyone has my name, which is my mother`s name, on the passport. It`s never been hidden, that, or my date of birth, or where I was born – I was born in Hong Kong, for all those who`ve missed that part of the breaking news – and I just find it so funny,” said Katrina sarcastically.

The lady did not stop there. She was bold enough to drag Rahul Gandhi’s name in the “half-Indian” controversy, proving that she is not only beautiful but is brainy too, for she knows she raised a very valid point.

“Am I supposed to be ashamed that I am half Asian, half European? I mean, no! Rahul Gandhi is half-Indian, half-Italian. So? I am very proud of what I am and I just don`t understand the confusion – as if I`m trying to hide the fact that my mother`s British. Why would I? ” said Katrina.
