Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Oct 24 (IANS) The makers of director Sreenu Vaitla's upcoming Telugu film, 'George Krish', featuring actor Sharwanand in the lead, have now announced that the unit of the film is in the process of shooting a mass retro song. Taking to its X timeline, AK Entertainments, the production house producing the film, wrote, RETRO VIBES. MASS BEATS. ENTERTAINMENT UNLIMITED! A high-energy RETRO MASS SONG shoot is underway for #GeorgeKrish! Our Captain of Entertainment, @SreenuVaitla, and Charming Star @ImSharwanand are gearing up for a FULL-ON SANKRANTHI FUN FEAST!

Sources say that Manasas role in 'George Krish' will have great significance. The film has generated excitement among fans ever since it was first announced as Sharwanand, who is riding high on the successes of his recent films -- 'Nari Nari Naduma Murari' and 'Biker' -- is teaming up with director Sreenu Vaitla for the first time. Presented by ATV, the film is being produced by Ramabrahmam Sunkara under Anil Sunkaras AK Entertainments banner, with Ajay Sunkara opting in as co-producer. It may be recalled that the makers had unveiled the title and release date through a colourful and eye-catching poster in August this year. The Sankranti sentiment is particularly special for Sharwanand as films of the actor that have released for the festival have gone on to emerge as huge successes. Films such as 'Shatamanam Bhavati', 'Express Raja' and 'Nari Nari Naduma Murari' all released for Sankranti and emerged winners. Now, 'George Krish' too is to be released for Sankranthi. 'George Krish' was launched in a grand fashion with a traditional pooja ceremony.

Ballot voting underway for Legislative Council polls, BJP and SP leaders trade barbs
Digital Desk | Ghaziabad, Oct 23 (IANS) Voting for the Legislative Council elections in Ghaziabad began at 8 a.m. on Friday, with voters arriving at polling stations in the district amid security arrangements. BJP MLA Nandkishor Gurjar, who was present at the booth, described the election as an important exercise, arguing that voting through ballot papers would put to the test the oppositions allegations regarding electronic voting machines (EVMs) and electoral malpractice. Targeting Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and other opposition leaders, Gurjar alleged that they questioned the electoral process when the BJP won elections but remained silent when their parties secured victories in other states. He said the current election, conducted through ballot papers, would provide an opportunity to assess the BJPs electoral support beyond the debate surrounding EVMs. This election is very important, Gurjar said, adding that BJP workers worked tirelessly to strengthen the party at the grassroots level. Expressing confidence in the partys leadership at the state and regional levels, the BJP MLA said opposition leaders would have to reconsider their allegations if the BJP secured a victory despite their criticism. He further claimed that allegations of EVM manipulation and vote theft amounted to an insult to the people who elected their representatives. Gurjar also said the ballot-based election would mark a new chapter in the countrys electoral history. Meanwhile, in Varanasi, Samajwadi Party MLA Ragini Sonkar appealed to voters to ensure a decisive victory for the partys candidates. She accused the BJP of creating an atmosphere of hooliganism, particularly in the education sector, and alleged that the ruling partys policies were adversely affecting students and young people. Sonkar claimed that children were being deprived of educational opportunities and that the youth were struggling to secure employment. She urged voters to support the Samajwadi Party, presenting the election as an opportunity to register their dissatisfaction with the BJPs governance. Polling began on Friday for 28 legislative Council seats across Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka and Maharashtra, with voters turning up at designated booths. In Uttar Pradesh, polling is being held for five graduate and six teacher constituencies, while Bihar is having elections for four graduate and four teacher constituencies.
The posters targeting Samajwadi Party (SP) Chief Akhilesh Yadav have surfaced in 15 districts across Uttar Pradesh, including Lucknow, Ballia, Mau, Ghazipur, Azamgarh, Varanasi, Basti, Hardoi, and Sitapur. The posters featuring images of Atiq Ahmed,...

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 22 (IANS) External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar on Thursday said that he has failed to understand the reasons behind opposition parties' criticism of India hosting US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Mumbai. He also listed past instances when leaders have met foreign leaders outside Delhi. I didn't get that. They don't like Mumbai? I mean, they have something against Mumbai? I think it is a great city, it is our financial capital. It is our Bollywood capital. It has got so much going for it. Maybe Mumbai doesn't like them... I have no idea why they have this reservation, said EAM Jaishankar while speaking at the NDTV World Summit. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had last week taken a swipe at the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi over Rubio's meeting EAM Jaishankar in Mumbai, terming it as summoning. EAM Jaishankar then went on to list a few examples when India has hosted visiting foreign leaders outside Delhi. If going out of Delhi to meet a foreign leader or a foreign counterpart is summoning, I can give you a lot of examples. Mrs (Indira) Gandhi went to Shimla to meet Bhutto. Was she summoned? Salman Khurshid went to Jaipur to meet a Pakistan PM. Was he summoned? he asked. We are adults, let's have an adult conversation. Let's leave, you know, said EAM Jaishankar amid a round of applause from the gathering at the venue. EAM Jaishankar hosted counterparts from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the United States in Mumbai on October 19-20 and also attended the celebrations of the 250th anniversary of the independence of the US as a Guest of Honour. Last week, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) had also dismissed any criticism about the choice of Mumbai as a venue for EAM Jaishankar's bilateral engagements. It has been the practice for the last decade or so that we have hosted foreign dignitaries outside Delhi. To just give you some examples, Prime Minister hosted the Prime Minister of Spain in Baroda. He hosted Chancellor Merz in Ahmedabad. Prime Minister of Mauritius was hosted by him in Varanasi, and the External Affairs Minister hosted the SCO Foreign Ministers Meeting in Goa. He hosted the Foreign Minister of Botswana in Kevadia in Gujarat, and the External Affairs Minister also hosted the Heart of Asia Conference in Amritsar. So, that was just to give you a few examples of the meetings of leaders, of dignitaries that have happened outside of Delhi, stated MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal during a bi-weekly media briefing in New Delhi on Friday. /as
