ANJI - Movie of 7 Decades of Tollywood!!!!
You will soon be thrilled to experience a new era movie of
graphics and evoking special effects. Because, I need to give
you a change after a family melodrama.....
The Lucky "A" : Producer Shyam Prasad Reddy had named all his pictures after "Talambralu" with starting
letter as "A" like.. Aahuti, Ankusam, Aagraham, Ammoru, all starting with letter "A". Not only that, also sensational hits Ankusam &
Ammoru had undergone so many changes & additions while shooting and they had been picturized for a longer time. Even this title
"Anji" is starting with letter "A" and it has more production values and star image than the other pictures mentioned above. So we can
expect a big victory from Anji, which cannot be determined.
Guiness Record : Normally for any film Chiranjeevi will have 70 - 80 callsheets..but for this film, Chiranjeevi
himself doesn't know for how many callsheets he had worked. Since 5 years Chiranjeevi had been working in different schedules for this
film. Some time back, when Bollywood Hero Jeetendra heard about the way Chiranjeevi working for "Anji" project, he said "A big hero
working for a film for so many days will be a greatest record in the world film history and this should be included in Guiness Book of
World Records." So from the above statement , we can understand how much dedication and devotion is shown by Chiranjeevi, working
for "Anji".
Other Records :
First Indian movie to have 3D Digital Graphics -Anji
A Movie that has done shooting in Annapoorna Studios for more No. of Days - Anji.
A Movie that has more No. of Sets erected in Annapoorna Studios - Anji.
A Movie for which Chiranjeevi participated in shooting for more No. of Days in Annapoorna Studios - Anji
If we go on list out like this, there will be so many such records.
Anji created so many records before its release and it will create some wonderful records after release which will remain in the
audience, industry and film business for ever.
Chris Graphics, A Special Attraction : Most of us know that Chris is doing graphics work for this film "Anji".
Chris had done special course in graphics at Paris and as Shyam was interested to work with such young and energetic graphics
designer, he met him and made him work for the film "Ammoru".
We all know what range of response got from the audience ,for the graphics work in that film by Chris.
After making such a sensational film, Shyam thought of making a wonderful story film with the top most commercial star, Megastar
Chiranjeevi and also with the help of Chris's Graphics. Tollywood is really lucky to have such a daring & dedicated producer Shyam
Prasad Reddy, and no doubt that Anji will be one of the Milestones in the 7 Decades of Telugu Film Industry
(Tollywood).
Some Highlights of Anji : If we have to talk about highlights of this film, what we can talk, because the total film
"Anji" itself is a big highlight. Megastar Chiranjeevi's performance as Anji will be one of the highlights. Chiranjeevi's character in this film
will be in association with 6 kids. Normally kids like Chiranjeevi's films and this film have more attachment towards kids, so definitely it
will be liked by everyone.
Chiranjeevi's brother Nagababu , not only doing a different character in this film but also in a different getup.
Latest craze actress Reema Sen is appearing one special song, one more actress Rajyalakshmi, who had done special songs & dances
in films "Ashoka The Great" & "Sakhi", is also appearing for one special song in this film. Above all actress Namrata Sirodkar is the
Heroine of this film.
Well known actor, director Tinu Anand is doing a different role as the main Villain, which is one more speciality of this film. Bhupender
Singh, who had done a Villain character in the film "Tammudu", is doing as the young villain.
One more big plus point is Director Kodi RamaKrishna's direction, he has directed most of the Sensational films under MS Art Movies
like "Talambralu","Aahuti", "Ankusam" & "Ammoru".
He is working hard and doing best in making "Anji", as a Phenominal Hit.
Bapu's Hand in Graphics : In this Sensational and most awaited film, we have a Climax in which Lord Shiva
appears in an Angry Mood (MahaVugra Roopam) , which is also one of the highlights of this film.
Nobody is acting in the character of Lord Shiva, but this Character is created using the 3D Digital Graphics to give the
look and feel of real God appearance in the film. So the image of Lord Shiva, Siva Lingam, & an ancient Siva Temple and some
more drawings were done by the great Artist & Director Bapu. Based on these drawings, models were created and sets were erected
for shooting of this film.
In the climax we will have around 3 minutes & 50 seconds of Shiva's Characterization using graphics and
some more graphics during the middle of the film. All these were created using the drawings of Bapu.
Megastar Chiranjeevi's dedication, Shyam Prasad Reddy's determination, commitment and investmet of Crores will
prove the Stamina of telugu film industry and show that telugu films can also be made at International standards. To give us some more
surprises...in the theatres... ANJI.. is Coming Soon!!

Megastar Chiranjeevi to sue Deccan Chronicle
Megastar Chiranjeevi is planning to sue DC for its false
information. There is some political people's involvance behind this
incident. There is absolutely no fault on Chiru side. Officials even
inspected the "free" plot alloted to CCT at Jubilee Hills. This too
was intact. A high-profile lawyer is coming down from New Delhi to
handle this case. All the amount which he gets a "reputation damage
claim" will be forwarded to CCT and other charitable institutions.
Not to forget Chiru also said that if it was proved that he illegally
occupied even 1 sq.ft of land, he would surrender it. Actually the
loser in this case in Deccan Chronicle, though initially it upset
Chiru and his fans as the paper lost a lot of "credibility" after
this incident. A popular cine magazine is going to survey fans if
they believe in this article. The outcome will show what reputation
Chiru has among the general public and it also prove that if anything
is said against him, it will only affect the person who had said it.

[courtesy: TollywoodHQ.com]
23rd September 2002 11:03:40 PM.
Officials from the Jubilee Hills Society and V&E Department inspected Megastar Chiranjeevi's plot at Road 25, J.Hills and gave him a
clean chit that he dint occupy even a single sq.ft of land illegally. He is occupying only the 3,333 sq.ft of land alloted to him and had built a
wall earlier a year back itself. In today's (24th September) edition of Vaartha paper too it was mentioned that the article had been written
against Chiru without proper verifications. Officials stated that - "If he had wanted to illegally occupy land then he would have not a built a
wall at the back of the house." Its learned that Chiranjeevi is planning to file a case of "defamation" against Deccan Chronicle very soon
and is looking for other legal methods of proving himself innocent. He also said that incase he was found guilty, he would surrender the
property to the Government. Below is the article which was published on the front page of Deccan Chronicle.

I will enter into Politics, If people wants
me to.. - Chiranjeevi
Chiranjeevi Charity- Eye & Blood Donations
Indra will stand much higher and above than our JVAS. Chiranjeevi is the number one
hero now and Vyjayanthi movies is the number one banner. When we both join hands together and produce a hatrick film, its natural that
it creates a lot of attention. - AswiniDutt .
I will make films with "Charan" and "Akhil" also... - Aswini Dutt
One of the Leading Producer Aswinidutt, had done films under his banners with Stars like.. NTR, ANR, and next generation stars like
Chiranjeevi , Balakrishna, Nagarjuna, 3rd generation Stars like Jr.NTR also. So, he had that credit of doing films with Star families in
different generations..and he said soon he will do films with Chiranjeevi's Son "Ram Charan" and Nagarjuna's Son "Akhil" in one of the
interviews..recently.
Craze for the Film "INDRA"
Audio of "INDRA" has been released on 16th June (Sunday) and on the same day, they had a
program about INDRA on "Gemini TV" at 10:00pm. Normally, Theatres will get more collection on Sunday first show and second shows
for any film, but on this Sunday (16th June) , collections dropped for second shows because of program about INDRA on Gemini TV
during that time, because everybody was stuck to TV to watch that Special Program on INDRA. This was told by Distributors & Theatre
Owners in Dabagardens, Vizag. This shows the CRAZE for the film 'INDRA' and the expectations of one and all for a Chiranjeevi's
Film.
I will never Disappoint my Fans expectations.... - Chiranjeevi
This year, fans were very much dissappointed because of the failure of "Mrugaraju" and other films.. like "Manjunatha" - which is a
guest role. Roles in "Manjunatha" and "Daddy" was impressed and appreciated by many people and moreover by the Women
Audience...but I found that my Fans were disappointed because they didn't get what they expected out of me... so we got the story,
"INDRA" which will contain all that what my Fans and Audience expect out of me. "INDRA" will be good film ,containing
Comedy, Mass Entertainment, Sentiment, Emotional dialogues, Action Scenes, and explaining about a Social Issue & giving a message
through this.
As an actor I can say that , this character has different shades in it.
There are so many highlights in this film, like..B.Gopal's Direction, Manisharma 's wonderful Music, Seetharama Sastry & Veturi's Lyrics
which are attractive, Choreography of Lawrance, Dances of Raju Sundaram, Fights of Vikram Dharma, VSR Swamy's Photography,...like
that everything in this film is Highlight. Producer Aswini Dutt not compramising anywhere and trying to show the richness in every frame
for this beautiful story. Being a Silver Jubilee movie under his banner, he is working more dedicated towards this film.
There is no other intention for having "Born For The People" caption under the Title "INDRA". It is suggested by the Designer "Suresh
Bujji" , when the title is given for designing. Since everybody liked it.. we kept it as it is.
After Indra's release, I will be acting in a film under "Anjana Productions" banner produced by "Nagababu" , which will be directed by
"Poori Jagannath". After that, a film by Vijayabapineedu and another by Geetha Arts.

Chinni Krishna (Story Writer):
"Its altogether a fresh subject with a new point never touched by any writer before in Indian movies. "
"Its impossible to measure his personality's heights in this movie, as this character is not limited to just a small community or a place.
Its an universal character. I would not wonder if people build temples for Chiranjeevi garu , after watching this movie."

"I worked for several films under several banners in my career, but few films gave me immense satisfaction and will be remembered for
a longer period of time. INDRA will be one such mile stone."
