Movie : Veera
Director : Ramesh Varma
Producer : Ganesh Indukuri
Cast : Ravi Teja, Kajal, Tapsee, Pradeep Rawat, Rahul Dev, Brahmanandam
After the success of Mirapakay, Ravi Teja is back with another mass entertainer, Veera, doing dual roles.
With the summer vacation touching its peak, it is generally felt that Veera would set Tollywood ablaze.
ACP Shyam (Ravi Teja) is an upright cop. Villain Dhanraj (Rahul Dev) has a son who lusts after college girls. When his eve-teasing turns violent, Shyam takes him to task and sees that criminal justice prevailes on the victims. Dhanraj loses his cool and kills Shyam`s infant son (Moksha). But, the cop doesn`t reveal this to anyone.
In the meantime, the government appoints Deva (Pradeep Rawat) as Shyam`s bodyguard but intelligent Veera (Ravi Teja) comes as bodyguard in place of Deva.
At this juncture, Veera comes across Aikya (Taapsee) and both fall in love with each other. Another ravishing beauty (Kajal) comes into picture. Shyam detects that Veera is not the real bodyguard and when the latter was about to be arrested, he reveals the child, who is long thought to have been killed by the villains.
Why does Veera come to save Shyam`s family? What is the link between the government-appointed bodyguard and Shyam with villain Dhanraj. Who is Kajal, and what is her connection with Shyam`s family? These confused links form the crux of the story.
Ravi Teja is seen hysterical in several scenes. As a result, his characterization lacked originality and his efforts went awry. The dual role formula miserably failed in Veera, though director Ramesh Varma said that he was inspired by Vikramarkudu, Ravi Teja`s earlier dual role flick.
Kajal Agarwal is good as a village girl. At a time when she was trying for an outlet to prove her mettle as an artiste rather than a mere glam doll, this piece of performance comes as a blessing to her. But, she lacked the spark in her eyes, looking pale in most of the scenes.
Tapsee proved that she can do the urbane roles with much ease. Brahmanandam and Venu Madhav`s comedy was routine. All other characters did their portions well, but many not synchronizing with the script.
Veera is only fine in parts wherever Ravi Teja is shown in a mass dimension. There is unnecessary violence and the screenplay is hackneyed. Director Ramesh Varma was purely focusing to showcase Ravi Teja on the lines of a superhero but he failed miserably.
The basic script itself suffers from a heavy dose of mindless violence. The dialogues are raw and sounds as though they are forced on the audiences for the deliberate mass effect. The songs are poor, but Taman`s background score is impressive in several stretches.
Gowtham Raju`s editing is not crisp. However, cinematography is fine, and production values are good. Blood and gore; illogical script; poor comedy are big minus points to the film. How far Ravi Teja can shoulder the weight of the movie is to be seen.

Kanimozhi Arrested Video
Kanimozhi Arrested Video
Kanimozhi, DMK MP and Karunanidhi’s daughter, was arrested and sent to Tihar jail by a Delhi court which dismissed her bail plea in the 2G spectrum scam, saying there was a possibility of witnesses being influenced considering the “magnitude” of the crime.
The 43-year-old daughter of Karunanidhi’s second wife Rajathi, was shocked on hearing the order pronounced by Special CBI judge O P Saini on Friday but maintained her calm in the court.
However, tears welled up in her eyes when she was taken to the court lock-up by police personnel.
Clad in an orange salwar suit, she was later driven in a Delhi police van to Tihar prison where she will be lodged in jail no 6. Former Telecom Minister A Raja is already lodged in Tihar.
The judge also rejected the bail plea of Sharad Kumar, MD and CEO of Kalaignar TV Private Ltd, who along with Kanimozhi, faces the charge of conspiracy and bribery in accepting Rs.200 crore from D B Realty for the channel in the spectrum scam.
“Considering the magnitude of the crime, nature and enormity of the allegations, character of evidence on record and the apprehension that the witnesses may be influenced in case the accused are released on bail, I have no hesitation in holding that both applicants/accused have failed to make out a prima facie case for bail.
“Bail applications are without merit and the same are dismissed,” the court said in its 144-page order brushing aside her lawyer Ram Jethamalani’s arguments that urged for chivalry for her being a woman.
One of the bodyguards of Kanimozhi started crying inconsolably when Kanimozhi was being taken inside the lock-up at Patiala House Courts.
Kanimozhi, who was accompanied by her husband Aravindan, family members and DMK Parliamentary Party chief leader T R Baalu, first inquired about the order from A Raja as she could not hear it properly.
As Raja broke the news to her, stunned Kanimozhi tried very hard to control emotions and was being hugged by her husband before some women constables took over and led her inside the lock-up.
The court said most of the witnesses against the DMK MP are the employees of Kalaignar TV and hence, possibility of they being influenced cannot be ruled out.
“Considering the magnitude of the crime and the fact that many of the witnesses are employees of Kalaignar TV, there is every apprehension that the witnesses may be influenced, if the accused are released on bail,” it said.
The court, which did not go into the merits of the case and termed the observations as “tentative”, said that there were “incriminating” evidence against her and Sharad.
“The role of both of the accused in the case is clear… magnitude of the crime is enormous. The allegations, on the face of it, are very grave. The supporting evidence is also there on record. The submissions, as such, with utmost respect are without merit,” the court said.
The court, which had reserved its order on 7th May, on the bail applications of Kanimozhi and Sharad Kumar has referred to various judgments of the Supreme Court to negate the arguments of noted criminal lawyer Ram Jethmalani who appeared for the DMK leader.
The court rejected the legal argument that an accused be released on bail if she was not arrested during investigations.
“It is clear that on the appearance of an accused in court in response to summons issued by the court, his bail application is required to be disposed of on merits of the case and bail cannot be allowed as matter of right.
“As such the accused has no right to be released on bail simply because she was not arrested during investigation and appeared in the court in response to the summons. He has to make out a case for bail on merits,” it said while referring to various case laws on the issue.
Giving reasons for denial of bail, the court said some of the key witnesses against them were the employees of Kalaignar TV, alleged recipient of Rs 200 crore bribe from firms promoted by Shahid Usman Balwa and they can be influenced upon.
The court also cited the statements of prosecution witnesses G Rajendran, an employee of Kalaignar TV and Aseervatham Achary, a former aide of Raja, to refer to the culpability of Kanimozhi and Sharad Kumar in the 2G scam.
The judge said that both the accused were in conspiracy with each other and A Raja.
They played key roles in receiving illegal gratification for their television channel in which both held 20 percent shares each.
The court also rejected the plea of Jethmalani that Kanimozhi be released on the sole ground that she is a woman.
“Sex is one of the grounds which may be considered at the time of grant of bail. However, considering the magnitude of the crime and the allegations against her, I am unable to show any consideration to her on this ground,” the court said.
However, the “dignified” conduct of Kanimozhi during court proceedings earned special praise for her.
“I wish, I could show her some consideration, considering her extremely dignified conduct in the court,” the CBI Judge said.
CBI had chargesheeted Kanimozhi on 25th April in the scam. It had indicted her of having taken bribe to the tune of Rs 200 crore, which was routed to Kalaignar TV, in which she has 20 percent stake.
Besides Kanimozhi, former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Karunanidhi’s wife Dayalu Ammal, holds 60 percent share in Kalaignar TV.
She, however, was not chargesheeted in the case as the CBI said she neither knew English nor used to take part in the day-to-day functioning of the channel.

Vishwaroopam to be filled with thrills and chills
Selva’s Vishwaroopam starring Padmashri Kamal Haasan is going to be a racy thriller that will send a chill down your spine. It is to be a tri-lingual and will be made in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi. The script is something Selva has worked very hard to perfect and he is confident that it will be a bold new attempt in Tamil cinema.
Kamal’s look for the film will be a selling point, according to Selva as the actor will be sporting a slim and trim physique. Plus his legendary status as one of the best lookers to grace the silver screen is to be recaptured. Sonakshi Sinha is the lucky heroine of this film.

Deol trio, Priyanka Chopra to dazzle at IIFA Toronto
Bollywood's famous Deols - veteran actor Dharmendra and his sons Sunny and Bobby - are set to enthrall fans in Toronto with their signature dance steps at the 12th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards to be held next month. Actress Priyanka Chopra will add glamour to the event too.
'Dad is celebrating his 50 years in the industry. It's a great moment for all of us. So we are going to be all together and looking forward to it,' actor Bobby Deol told reporters at a press conference here Thursday night.
Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby, who were recently seen together in comedy film Yamla Pagla Deewana will perform to peppy songs from the movie, as well as on some of Dharmendra's classic numbers.
'We will of course perform on Yamla Pagla Deewana songs. We would also choose some songs from dad's films on which we can perform,' said Bobby.
Even at 75, the evergreen Dharmendra is quite excited to take to the stage to celebrate five decades of his contribution to the film industry.
'I am loving it. Wherever we go we are going to enjoy because we all love you and you all love us. That's the beauty,' said Dharmendra.
The three-day IIFA weekend is to be held June 23-25.
According to Bobby, IIFA is different from other awards because it takes Bollywood beyond Indian shores and popularises its song and dance culture in different countries every year.
'IIFA is different because it reaches to different parts of the world. India becomes the talk of the town in those countries. They get to know more about Indian culture and it's a great way of spreading across to the world, what Indians are all about,' he said.
Actress Priyanka Chopra said she has not yet decided the numbers she would be performing to at the IIFA event, but she hopes to do something unique.
'This is too early to decide what to perform in IIFA as it still has a month to go. I have performed in almost every award functions this year so would like to do something different in IIFA,' said Priyanka.
Though she will not be performing with the Deols, the 28-year-old said she was looking forward to being with them as she shares a special bonding with the family.'
