Y.V.S ABOUT OKKAMGADU MUSIC

I am a huge fan of K Raghavendra Rao since my days in Gudiwada as president of NTR fans association. I also started K Raghavendra Rao fans association and corresponded with him regularly. People go to theatres just to watch songs of K Raghavendra Rao’s films. I am hugely inspired by him. Listening to his songs enhanced my love for music. Lucky I joined K Raghavendra Rao as assistant director and it gave me lot of scope to song picturisation because I observed K Raghavendra Rao’s work from close quarters.
My song picturisation was always appreciated right from my first film Sri Seeta Ramula Kalyanam Chootamu Rarandi to Devadasu. I have created my own style in unusual song picturisation. I did four films with MM Keeravani, who is my all time favorite music director. Ramana Gogula composed extraordinary music for Yuvaraju. Chakri gave chartbuster music for Devadasu, which ran for 175 days in 17 centres.
When music has become such an important ingredient of film’s success, I take extreme precautions while signing a music director. Mani Sharma is an excellent music director with great specialisation in keyboard. He is also exceptionally good at re-recording and background score. He has delivered industry hits with almost all leading heroes of Telugu cinema. His music caters to classes and masses alike. Mani Sharma has given extraordinary music for Okka Magadu. He has already composed six songs out of seven songs for Okka Magadu. For a high profile film like Okka Magadu, it is very important to have music that gives an instant kick. The music of Okka Magadu is going to be huge chartbuster. You don’t have to listen 2-3 times to decide how songs are. One listening is enough to judge how good Okka Magadu songs are. After working with Mani Sharma, I realised that he has excellent grip on tunes, orchestra and rhythm. Okka Magadu music will surpass the music composed for all my six films.Hats off to Mani Sharma!

NBK TO PLAY DUAL ROLE IN OKKA MAGADU

It is well aware that Balakrishna is playing hero in a film being produced and directed by YVS Choudary on the banner of Bommarillu Vari. The muhurat was also held for the film at Annavaram in presence of Lord Satyanarayana Swamy.

However, the audiences and industry are eagerly waiting for its regular shooting. Already there were lots of expectations on the film and its story and also its business and it became a hot topic in the Film Nagar.

This crazy project would start its regular shooting from November 16, it is reliably learnt. Balakrishna is stated to be playing a dual role in this film while Simran, Anushka, Nisha Kothari are playing opposite him as heroines.

Balakrishna wanted to look in a novel way in this film and it is also reliably learnt that special make-up men from the US are being summoned for the purpose. Manisharma is giving music for this heavy budget film.

After delivering many duds in a row, Balakrishna's next film is Maharadi - on which fans have banked good expectations. But, Balayya's movie which is the spotlight is the highly awaited Okka Magadu. Incidentally, the title was a songs from the movie Seethayya, and had Simran shaking her hips in the song. There are two heroines in the movie. Anushka Shetty is one of them. The trade buzz is that, Ileana who considers YVS Chowdary as her mentor is being cast as one of the heroines. Since, there is a date crunch - the makers have not confirmed if she is doing the movie.

Heroines of Okka Magadu

YVS Chowdary is well known for his knack of selecting heroines whose magnetic appeal can draw in the masses. His discovery Ileana is today, the most sought after heroine in Telugu film industry. After the announcement of his new project Okka Magadu (with the combination of Bala Krishna and YVS Chowdary), everyone is curious about the identity of his heroine. Here is YVS Chowdary answering the question on everyone’s lips.

The title of the film Okka Magadu (the one and only) was inspired by the Okka Magadu compositions created by MM Keeravani and me for the film Seetayya .If you observe the Okka Magadu song, you will notice that it is about a young girl fantasizing all the heroic qualities that she is seeking in one person. Keeravani coined the title ‘Okka Magadu’ using my description of ‘Oka Magadu’ for the song. This composition was done in Tirumala during the music sittings of Seetayya.

I felt the title suited the powerful story and subsequently announced the projects Devdadasu and Okka Magadu as Seetayya was nearing completion. The character of Simran in Okka Magadu narrates the qualities she would like to have in her dream man. I have shown NTR in historical, mythological, folk and social dimensions in that song.

I approached Bala Krishna with the subject of Okka Magadu. He agreed after hearing the bare outline of the story. That was unusual because generally the heroes agree only after a detailed narration and script is given to them. It was a pleasant surprise that he agreed without any fuss.

The next task was to cast the right heroine. I am a little choosy about this because often by the time the film is complete the heroine would already have been written about and overexposed, therefore the newness is gone. I like to keep an aura of mystery around them so that there is curiosity. Here is list of Okka Magadu heroines and the reasons why I selected them.

Nisha Kothari: She is the discovery of Ram Gopal Varma and is playing one of the heroines in Okka Magadu. Incidentally this is her first Telugu film. She is a terrific combination of innocence and sensuousness, the face has the first quality and the body has the latter. Nisha has two songs with Bala Krishna in this film.

Anushka: She is one of the top three heroines of Telugu cinema today with a fabulous figure and a beautiful face. She created waves with her filmVikramarkudu. Anushka has two songs with Bala Krishna. Nisha and Anushka jointly have one song with Bala Krishna.

Simran: Simran who performed the Okka Magadu song in Seetayya will do a special heroine role in Okka Magadu. She got married some months ago. Now we will re-intorduce her as a performance-oriented heroine in Okka Magadu just the way Kajol did in the film Fanaa. I am very sure that Simran is going to bag the best actress award with her role in Okka Magadu. I am happy to announce that Simran who paired up with Bala Krishna in 1999 and 2001 to deliver the industry hits Samarasimha Reddy and Narasimha Naidu respectively is acting in Okka Magadu too.
