Its not just EENADU which is covering extensively Chiru Meetings. Turn on NDTV, CNN-IBN and check it out. There are news items about Chiranjeevi daily in those channels. Even Times Now, Headlines Today are giving slots in News Headlines about Chiru.

And yes, the only media house which is not covering Chiru extensively is Sakshi.

And I think Ramoji is not supporting Chiranjeevi nor he is opposing him. Going by the technical mistakes Chiru camp is doing out of inexperience do you think that Ramoji is behind him? If at all he is behind him, there would not be any initial technical problems which you have listed and problems regarding the party name registration.

Prajalu antha verrivallu karu ani Ramoji ki telusu...prathi successful business man ki telusu...kani vallaki teliyadu anukovatam mana murkhatvam...

Since chiru is a celebrity it's quit natural to give wide coverage to chiru by all the state and national channels. There is much differrnce betwwen national channels coverage and eenadu & etv coverage to Chiru. Even a lay man can understand this. But my opnion is why some of the media is supporting him like edho akasam nunchi vudi paddatlu. U know eenadu gave five full page coverage for Chiru's maiden press meet. No one, even Chandrababu didnt get that much coverage in Eenadu earlier.

Yeah I dont say Ramoji is behind chiru. I agree your comment that Chiru would have done initial mistakes if Ramoji is behing him. But blindly supporting him Ramoji is diluting the standards of Eenadu.

I strongly belive that Ramoji ( Eenadu group) supporting Chiru for his personal hatred towards YSR. It is out of compulsion only. Everybody in AP knows that.

I love eenadu and their entire team for their dedication of work. But endhukano I cant support eenadu for it's biased reporting. It should be neutral since it has wide readership.

I dont want comment on your comments like thelusu nanu kovadam murkhathvam. If I say Ramoji is not supporting chiru and he is opposing him people think of me as murkhuralu.

Ramoji to support Chiru

All Eenadu and ETV bureaus got the message from Ramoji to support Chiru in the coverage. Jayaprakash Narayana got the instruction to meet Chiru and join his team. Babu is advised not to criticise Chiru. Two OB Vans are ordered to cover Chiru yatra and a special bureau will follow all the way. This is how Ramoji is planning to counter YSR in the the next elections. But the question is whether Chiru and Babu join hands after next elections.??

THE FLOW CONTINUES IN AJ..

About one week back in this blog- we predicted some more people are going to leave AJ soon. We also analysed that it is because of attitude of K srinivas. Now it became true. The chief photographer and once right hand man of RK Ramesh left the organisation. Many people may think how a chief photographer can become right hand man of RK. When RK was a reporter, he was a photographer in Indian Express group. Both were booze and gambling friends. Caste played a major role and both became close. During last 6 years he is fixer in AJ. He is unofficial purchase manager of AJ. Once Srinivas became Editor- the differences were cropped up. Srinivas shrewdly played and now Ramesh is no more. One more important thing that is going to happen soon is...

1) About 10 persons who came from vaarth and Udayam background are going left organisation. They bargained as a group with a channel. Septerber 11 is going to be a crucial day for AJ.

2) Vasanta Lakshmi, wife of Balagopal is going to play a major role in organisation. Once again srinivas shredly played a role in making her as total features incharge. Though the management is saying it is only a technicality- srinivas is trying to get hold of every organ in organisation. These developments are causing insecurity among Eendu people who came and they may soon left the organsation for their good. They already in touch with different channels. Vasanta, a pig head, always surviving because she is balagopal's wife and ramachandra murthy's pet never proved herself in any of newspapers. Because of her husbands proximity in many left orgnisations gave her a aura of an intellectual. let us see, what is going to happen in AJ features.. watch this column for more..


The deal in trouble..

The CNN-IBN deal with Andhrajyothy is in rough weather. According to realiable sources there are two problems for this deal. One is attitude of CNN-IBN management to put so many conditionalities to catch RK(AJ MD) for a cheap price. The second is Bankers. RK approached ICICI and few Nationalised banks for loan. He thought it is easy to get loan from private banks because the modalities are very simple. According to very realiable sources
the ICICI refused to give loan. They asked for some more time. Most Journos. might not aware, that in recent times RK through KS, the Editor, started wishpering campaign about the value of Andhra Jyothy. Though its worth is not more than 70 crores(including all the movable and fixed assests- though it is very high).. they started saying it is more than 100 to 150 crores. But ICICI refused to buy AJ claim and asked for some more surities. Meanwhile CNN-IBN putting pressure on AJ. Certainly these are trying times for RK and AJ.

NTV celebrates 1st anniversary

NTV and its Bhakti channel are Celebrating their 1st anniversary today. The festive mood can be observed on the screen, ofcourse, a low key affair compared to the 50 lakh budget inaugural meeting.

Insiders say that there are three reasons for lack of enthusiasm. Initially Mr. Chowdary thought of launching Vanita TV also on this day but could not make it. NTV has failed to keep atleast its 3rd position and had to give way to its junior, TV5. The revenues are also less compared to TV5 while the expenditure is more.All these reasons collectively impacted the mind of Mr. Chowdary. Despite providing modern equipment and offering reasonably high salaries he was unable to move up in the Ratings and this annoyed him greatly.

The only consoling factor is that Bhakti channel is ahead of Sanskruti ( sponsored by TV9).

Leaving aside all these financial matters to Mr. Chowdary, let us all wish our journos in NTV a happy anniversary.

I dont know why the AP media especilly eenadu which is a largest circulated, is supporting Chiru though his speach though it was immature. No politician in the country use such childish language which chiranjivi used in public meeting Ammaku boy naina toy naina nene). He is a man of above 50 years and his speach should reflect the seniority of age. His extempore speach was childish, where as the scripted speach was cinematic. If the media supports him like aha and oho it really doing blunder.

The standards of eenadu is deteriorating by suo\pporting an immatured politician like Chiranjivi. Ramoji un necessarily tagetted YSR and kashtalu koni thechu kunnadu. otherwise YSR would not be that much harsh on Ramoji. Eenadu should be neutral in news, because it need not to be biased as it has great readership. If Chandra babu was CM and did whatever YSR did today it definately praise CBN and kept quite for his wrong doings. Though eenadu supported CBN for the last 2004 elections he couldnt win. So Eenadu dont think that your support is alone makes a politician to win polls. Prajalu antha verri vallu kadhu to be guided by eenadu.

Adhrushta vasathu mee paper largest circulated andhu kani meeru cheppedhantha prajalu vintaranukuntey pappulo kalesi natley.

Maa Valued at 50 crores only

Sony decided not to takeover MAATV because it valued MAATV for 50 crores. Whereas the owners of MAA expected more than 100 crores. MAA management tried to hype the image of MAA TV by showing Chiru and Nag names as directors, but SONY replied "How the value of the channel will increase if Chiru and Nag are directors". They also evaluated the MAA ratings from the beginning and came to a conclusion that MAA Ratings has fallen down when Nag, Chiru, Allu and Matrix Prasad entered into it. Sony turned down the proposal and MAA is in search for a new investor who could takeover the company for more than 100 crores.

P.S: 100 crores for 60% share of MAA, rest 40% will be with Nag, Chiru, Allu, Matrix Prasad and M.K.Raju. The CEO will be Sarath Marar and no change in it. Nag and Chiru will be directing the channel from backend and Allu will be directing on day to day activities. If you are ok with these rules and policies then please contact MAA management and invest 100 crores and forget about your investment.

Praja Rajyam Review

First half: Comedy
Second half: Routine
Overall talk: Cinema nilabadadu
Title: Praja Rajyam
Punch Line: Premey Lakshyam....Sevey maargam
Cast: Chiranjeevi, Pawan kalyan, Nagababu, Harirama Jogayya
Story: Dr.Mitra & Allu Aravind
Dialogues: Paruchuri Brothers
Editing: Pawan Kalyan & Nagababu
Music and Promos: MAA TV
Audience: Mega Fans
Screenplay & Direction : Allu Aravind
Producer: Chiranjeevi
Banner: Geetha Arts
Release Date: 26th August, 2008.

Plot
Chiranjeevi was born in a poor family where his father is the Constable. His Mother got married at the age of 14 and gives birth to him at the age of 15. From then chiranjeevi worked hard and carried the responsibilities of the whole family on his own shoulders. There are many twists in the story and sentimental scenes like the hero wearing Knickers in +2 class when everyone is wearing pants. Working hard in fileds during paddy riping in sewage (As per my knowledge.... land will be dry during paddy riping time but dont know how the hero worked in sewage while riping the paddy...anyway this scene got huge response from the crowds)... from there pace of the story increased as it travels from Ganji to Benz , from Mogaltur to Madras and from aalochana to aacharana....and finally from Mandhu party to Raajakeeya Party.

Punch Lines:
There are some punch lines which erosed laughter for some and tears for some
1. Ammaku "Boy" Naina neney......aadukuney "TOY" nainaa neney.
2. Chinnappudu ekkuva kaalam Amma Vollo perigaanu...(Sabha ku vachina janaalu pakkintalla vollo perigaaraa?)
3. Amma...."Sindhuvu" kooda "Bindhuvu" nundey modhalavuthundhi....(ee rojullo kooda Amma tho evaranna antha naatakeeyam gaa maatlaadathaaraa?)
4."ganji" choosanu ...."Benzi" choosanu.....Mogaltur Pilla Kaalavullo eedhaanu......Los Angels lo Sky diving chesaanu.....

Story, Screenplay and Direction:
Welcome to the Good Old Big Telugu Family cinema. Chiranjeevi plays the title role of "Sevakudu", who of course did "Seva" for the family in the initial days and now he wants to do "Praja Seva" to the prajalu. He sacrifices for the family, does everything to save the name and honor of his family and also to Prajalu by starting the "Blood bank" and "Eye Bank". No one knows he's doing all these good things for the family and people but found out in the Interval bang with lot of suspense and count down when he announced the party name as "Praja Rajyam".

Second half started with chiranjeevi holding paper in his hand and reading it continuosly for 1 hour and refering basic components like "Vidya" , "Vaidyam",'Samajika Nyayam". Here we will get lot of disappointment because of the routine issues talked by many people in the past and chiru doing the same without telling us how he will do them...many people in the theatre starts Yawning here and we can see some people having Good Knap. Direction is Shoddy and pale in the second half as the interest slowly disappeared. Climax is a bit entertaining as it gives a pinch of sentiment dose to the people by hoisting the flag by a physically challenged boy. The most awaited film ended there.

Artist Performances:
Chiranjeevi himself. His Martin Luther King and Hillary Clinton like antics entertain and keep everyone alert, and the script and dialogues totally side with him in the pursuit of entertainment. There are some gags too, at the right time and place, carefully merged into the script. How he can do the things he promised is not established properly in the script creating a lot of confusion among people of what his idea to enter into politics. He and his Flag hoisting sentiment by physically challenged boy is Paisa Vasool.

This is a total, typical family entertainer; gags, sentiment and sacrifice. Nothing more or less. There've been several movies like this, and hopefully India will never give up its ‘Family Entertainers'. It's still likely you'll walk out before the climax, because in all respects the movie ends there and drags on.

Sidelights:
In the interval bang it was announced that the suspense will be unveiled and Party Name will be announced by 3 Girijanulu.......but dont know why it is not done

Summary:
Not Chiranjeevi's usual fare, but not really unlike it. With the backdrop of a Poor Guy working hard for his family and Rose from "Ganji To Benz", he still mouths witty filmy lines, pulls faces and shows pathetic expressions in his characteristic style.

Journalists in the poll

TRS party's probable candidates are in T Channel ...err HMTV as per the information. KCR's latest statement that three more journalists are going to get tickets in the next elections made them happy. Mr. Ramalinga Reddy, who was with Vaarta earlier was given a ticket from Medak district and he won the seat against a senior TDP leader Mr. Mutyam Reddy twice. Similarly, the TRS chief is hopeful of winning if some seats are allocated to journalists. So he has decided to give tickets to three journalists and all of them are in HMTV. ( No comments whether it is a sheer coincidence or the birds of a feather flocked together). Mr.Narayan Reddy, Chief Reporter, Political Bureau and Mr. Virahat Ali, Asst Chief News Coordinator are aspirants of tickets from Medak district while the Input Editor/Chief News Coordinator of the channel Mr. Laxmaiah is an aspirant of MP ticket from Peddapalli.

Interestingly, Mr. Sailesh Reddy of Zee Telugu who tried for a ticket both from Congress and TDP during last elections may also try his luck this time.But the name of the Party is still unclear. Mr. Madduleti of Vaarta from Kurnool district tried Congree ticket to fight against Mr. B.V. Mohan Reddy last time. He is trying once again.Mr. Khuda Baksh of Andhra Prabha tried Kadiri (Anantapur dist) Congress ticket last time but missed. He is again on his efforts this time.

News is that there are three aspirants in Chiranjeevi's Praja Raajyam too. Mr. Satti Babu, a senior photo journalist from East Godavari has already entered the inner circle of the party. He is now incharge of the media at Chiru's office and has been overseeing the arrangements for the media. Mr. Parameswar Rao, a senior journalist from Srikakulam dist has also joined the party though his aspirations are not clearly spelled out. Mr. Kanna Babu and Mr. Narasimha Rao of Eenadu are already named by the so called inner circle as the probable candidates.APUWJ president Mr. Somasundaram is also trying for a ticket. However, he is in a dilemma whether to join the party directly or wait till Lok Satta ties up with Praja rajyam and contest on Lok Satta ticket.Though the name of Mr. Murthy (NTV)is also doing rounds in Media circles, his friends dismiss it as a mere rumour.

Earlier, Mr. K. Keshava Rao, a journalist became Minister, PCC Chief, and later Rajya Sabha member in Congress. Mr. Laxma Reddy, a close relative of Marri Channa Reddy and the founder of NSS ( a news agency ) contested from Hyderabad Loksabha Constituency unsuccessfully. From TDP side, Mr. Kalva Srinivasulu became MP and now one of the General Secretaries of the party after being defeated in 2004. While the owners of the media organisations are keen on Council and Rajya Sabha tickets, journos are interested in fighting the polls with their field experience.

Sivaram Prasad for English News Channel

Mr. Sivaram Prasad of Studio N will be confined to the proposed English News Channel of the Narne group while Mr. Kommineni Srinivasa Rao is the likely candidate to head their Telugu News Channel. Though they got Licenses for Studio 1 ( Entertainment ) and Studio N ( News ), initially the work for the English News Channel is going on. They are yet to get a license for the Telugu Channel and once it is through, the work for Telugu News as well as Entertainment will take off. Mr. Kommineni was already contacted and he is waiting for the license to come. He is also very particular that the management spends huge amounts so that the channel is aired before elections.

Influence of REACH on Ratings

The availability of a TV channel influences its Ratings according to the TAM Data. The cooperation of the MSOs and Cable Operators makes all the difference. The figures for the month of June 16 to July 15 show this trend. The figures indicate the percentage of houses with cable connection in the country which have the facility to watch the particular channel on their TV.

The national level data show that TV5 reaches 6.86% of houses while TV9 reaches 9.46%, ETV2 8.64%, NTV 6.95 % and Gemini News 5.35%. The Ratings are in the order of TV9, ETV2, TV5, NTV and Gemini News. Here, the reach of NTV is more than TV5 but the ratings are slightly lower. This is a plus point for TV5. There is scope for enhancing its reach.

When we see the reach in Hyderabad City alone, TV9 reaches 82.29% of houses with Cable connection while ETV2 is available to 79.05%, NTV 62,41%. TV5 63.27% and Gemini News to 35.13%. The ratings of TV5 in Hyderabad city are far better than NTV and the reach is also one of the factors.

Hence the role of the MSO/Cable Operator has become very much important. First, he has to give the channel thus keeping it available for browsing. Then only the there will be a possibility of watching it. It is then the burden of the channel to keep him attracted to the channel. That is why the MSOs are demanding huge sums of Carriage Fees

Musalollalaku tv pandaga

RC Murthy and I.Venkat rao think that they can get good rest in News channels in their old age.Oldies like Lakshmayya and Suresh are spending their retirement days in news tvs.Aged fellows like Suvarnakumar are facing BP problems and going to hospital directly from office.By the time of elections these channels better to have ambulances parked before their offices.

HMTV Studio inauguration on 27th

HMTV, earlier known as ttv has completed civil and electrical work of its studio at A.S.Rao Nagar near ECIL and will be inaugurating the same on 27th. To see that the staff do not feel dissatisfied with the slow pace of work, the management has decided to infuse confidence among them and arranged this ' Gruhapravesham ' event on a large scale.The equipment procured so far will be installed and is likely to be completed in a month after which there will be trial runs throughout October.

Though the launch date was announced as 9th October, it may slightly get delayed according to the insiders. If the management is very particular, the soft launch ( test signals ) will be on 9th October, Vijaya Dashami day and the final launch by the end of October or 1st November. Movement of vehicles and cameras is very minimal at this stage and they are scarcely seen outside indicating that the preliminary work didnot gain momentum so far. More than 30 reporting staff have been inducted and they are kept busy browsing the internet in search of special stories. The stories ' on paper ' will be shot once cameras and vehicles are available.

Yama Donga loots Ratings for Maa

The latest ratings of the Telugu channels are really interesting. Maa TV could get 2nd place with 12 percent of market share, next only to Gemini TV. This is made possible with the help of the blockbuster movie " Yama Donga " . However, this is the last " astram " of Maa TV. One more interesting result is that Zee Telugu could surpass the ratings of ETV. The variety programmes including its reality shows brought considerable ratings for Zee. Infact, the staff at Zee have even celebrated this achievement in a big way. This is for the first time ETV dropped to 4th place. Gemini, Maa, Teja, Zee Telugu and ETV are in the descending order of their market shares. Among the News Channels, TV9 continues to be the leader while ETV2 remains in a distant second place. TV5 protected its 3rd place for the 5th consecutive week challenging its arch rival NTV.
