‘I am here to do Good Work’ – Panchi Bora September 27, 2011 16:33
There are n numbers of Heroines, who have made it big on Silver Screen, from travelling towards small screen to Silver Screen. To name with, Prachi Desai of ‘Rock On’ fame is a best example to quote. Another beautiful actress, who has started her acting career in Ekta Kapoor’s Television Venture and tried her luck as a heroine in a T – Town film, ‘Aakasame Haddu’, Panchi Bora, talks more about the film and herself; I am here to work Acting was never my second option. I hail from a family where no one are related to films or acting. Since Childhood, always I thought of what would be future, acting is only one domain that has come to my mind. Initially, it was a bit difficult to make my parents agree to accept my decision to take acting as a profession. But, after a couple of time, seeing my dedication towards the profession, they supported me. Till date, to which ever shoot or promotional event I go, my mom makes sure that she is with me. So, I am here to ‘only’ work and doo as many as good films and Television Ventures as I can. I am only keen in accepting those roles that have a lot of scope for performance. From T.V. to ‘Aakasame Haddu’ Initially, like any other new comer, I have made my debut in modeling, accepted certain commercials and then looked upon acting in the Television Venture of Ekta Kapoor. I have done a Daily Serial that aired in Star plus for more than a year. It fared well. But, I always wanted to explore the Silver Screen. So, just like an opportunity has come my way, the film makers of ‘Aakasame Haddu’ have seen my photographs through a Model coordinator, auditioned me for the role and I landed up playing the female lead in this ‘sensible’ film. More about the film ‘Aakasame Haddu’ discusses about today’s ‘meaning’ for ‘love’ and ‘relationships’ that has changed their identity and almost all the youngsters today are using these terms for their own benefits. The movie released recently, is getting a lot of critical acclaim and n number of Youth audience as well as some set of matured audience are keen in watching the film. I am happy that I go to play a role that I can recall for a life time, right in my debut film. I am looking forward to do more interesting work like this. I am looking forward the film to complete its 100 days of successful running. About getting in B – Town I believe for an artist, language should not be a barrier. You should be able to understand the meaning of the sequence, dialogues and emote the expressions, accordingly. You should also have a amazing rapport with your co – stars as well. In this scenario, I would say, the T – Town film industry is much comfortable to work with. People over here are very understanding, caring and good to work with. I don’t aspire to succeed in any particular industry as such. As far as I am getting well acclaimed roles and good work, I am open to work with any industry and in any language. About limitations As far as the roles and acting in them is concerned, I have no limitations at all. Be it a negative shaded role or a bubbly role or a matured woman’s role or a heroine centric film, I am ready to work. But, I am not so comfortable in wearing all those revealing clothes, on screen intimacy sequences, lip locks and bikini’s. End of the day, when I am watching my film along with my friends and family, I should not end up in an awkward situation. So, I would do nothing that would hurt myself respect and in turn my family’s reputation. ‘A heroine with a sensibility’, after listening to Panchi’s experience, one can for sure say this. Hope, unlike many other heroines, Panchi continuous to remain to her rules set!

A Usual Director with an unusual approach September 21, 2011 18:15
Probably two weeks ago, a film titled ‘Nenu Nanna Abaddham’, released in Hyderabad and all other centers throughout Andhra Pradesh. The Movie, Starring not so well noted Hero, and a new comer as a Heroine, released with absolute no expectations. As every Good work talks, even this film has completed its second week of releasing and running successfully. Well, this is what we call how profitable it would be for the film makers to produce an less than average budget film and enjoy the success of it. More than anyone, all the appreciation goes to the creator of the film, Debutant Director Govind Varaha, who has made ‘Nenu Nanna Abhaddam’ a worth watching film. Let’s know more what this director has to say about him, the film and his Journey as a director; Being a part of this industryIt has been very tough for me to sustain all these years in this industry and able to see my name on silver screen as a director of a film. Initial stages of my career were very tough. My aspiration and only aim in life is to become a director and for this I had to struggle a lot. Somehow, I managed to join as a assistant of director Karunakaran and this association has helped to a major extent. I consider Karunakaran as my ‘Guru’ and Dasari Narayana Rao has been my inspiration of my life. Today, Dasari Garu, after watching ‘Nenu Nanna Abhaddam’, ahs complemented on my work and that itself is a ‘Osca’ recognition for me. ‘Nenu Nanna Abhaddam’It is a complete feel good film that revolves around a adolescent couple residing in a Village. Like any other two teenagers, even this couple fall in love with each other. The rich - poor factor dominates their love and they decide to elope. But, I have tried projecting what happens after this couple takes this ‘big’ decision to live life their own. And yes, this has worked positive. The movie, released on September 9th has been getting good reviews each day and today the movie is considered to be a good success, satisfying the film maker too. Hero – Heroine of the filmWhen I was done with the story and the pre production work of my first film as a director, I did not found any film maker or a Hero who could trust me and let me direct the film. In my search, I met Nandu, the Hero of the film. He was so very impressed with the script that he immediately agreed to do the film and introduced me to the producers of the film. And later on, everything happened as planned.As far as selecting the female lead in the film, I wanted to introduce a new face who has looks and extra ordinary performance skills. I remember the girl who played Young Arundhati, in the film ‘Arundhati’. So, I approached Divya Nagesh. Though she is too young to become a heroine, she suited the hero of the film and the character as well. So, there were no second thoughts. On the success of the filmLike any other director, even I was very nervous before the release of the film and on the first day of release as well. No doubt I am confident on my making. But, it is only a unpredictable thought as how would the audience would receive the film. Moreover, there is no well known actor in either of the lead roles. For the film to be successful the audience has to watch it and through the mouth publicity, the talk about the film would spread from one to another. I am thankful to each and every audience, who has made this film a success. Future projectsI am working on a script now. As I have made my directorial debut directing a complete love entertainer, I just want to experiment with my second film. The chances of the film going to go on – location from November 2011 are high. The rest of the details of the cast and crew and the other technical team will be announced soon.By Govind Varahaa’s experiences, it is once again proved, not every high budget film will be a success, not every average budget film, will be a flop.
