young girls?
eroine Shriya is a thing of the past. Not anymore she has that star heroine charms in her face though her hot curves are quite adorable. This hot lady often gives a feast of her tempting assets at fashion shows and in some guest roles. Though films like Manam won her respect, she didn’t got any new chances. But still Shriya earns more than the likes of young heroines like Praneetha and Kriti Kharbanda. How’s this possible? For each time she walks the ramp, out hot lady gets paid around 1 lakh and more from the sponsoring brands. That makes her earn nearly 3-4 lakhs a month. All in all it crosses 50 lakhs per year, which any other struggling heroine wouldn’t be able to earn with just 2 movies in hand.

PROFIT OF BAAHUBALI
first part is
45 CRORES T
he other day Baahubali has completed the 50 days of run at box office. How much the makers have earned with this movie that collected more than 500 crores gross at box office? We hear that the share of Baahubali in this 50 days from worldwide box office is 245 crores. In that budget recovery 200 crores went into the making, so the profit is 45 crores. And that profits need to be shared by Producers, Rajamouli and Prabhas for their 3 years of efforts on the project. Except the fact that they have made a word-class film, it looks like “Baahubali: The Beginning� is not going to spell huge profits for any.

greets Sania for
ailing to cash on the success of Attarinitki Daredi movie, Bapu Bomma song featurette Pranitha is trying to get a break since then. However her efforts are going waste since she never got any big break in terms of hits nor any big heroes have picked her up. Though she resorted to some tempting skin shows in movies like Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda, nothing helped much. But the latest promotional activities of Manchu Vishnu’s “Dynamite” movie are helping her big time. Because she got a chance to wander from city to city, say Vizag, Warangal, Rajahmundry and others, in order to promote the flick. In case if this movie clicks, then these promotions will give huge mileage to Praneetha. Hope it goes like that.
