* The recent promotion of Love Failure, starring actor Siddharth and Amla Paul, was quite an experience for the stars. Despite the presence of bouncers there was a mad frenzy among the fans to get close to the actors. And the bouncers did nothing to safeguard the stars. The organisers say they wanted ‘live interaction’ between the fans and the stars!
* Talk everywhere these days is about the CBI and how all the scamsters are all being booked. Apparently, the bureaucracy is now so scared of signing files that even when it’s sent by CM Kiran Kumar Reddy, they are saying, “We don’t want to go to Chanchalguda jail. We won’t sign it unless every detail is in tune with the law.”
* At the closing ceremony of the 65th Indian Radiology & Imaging Association seminar —the topic was Quest for Excellence in Radiology — at Hitec City, the highlight of the evening was a cabaret dance! Quite unusual isn’t it for a radiology conference!!
* When Jagan’s cousin Sunil Reddy was arrested, everyone was talking about another close aide of his called Naidu.
Many don’t know what he looks like, as he’s been rather reclusive, but what people know is he has a super collection of fancy cars. Since anything related to Jagan is drawing so much attention, Naidu is not seen using his cars of late.
Chit chat
Best friends Padma and Aparna Reddy are back with their Petals show. Barely did Kamini finish with Yatra, she’s now ready with another exhibition of Abha Dalmia’s saris.
The FLO event too had organised a bazaar for its members. We hear the YEOs (Young Entrepreneurs Organisa-tion) is having a meet soon in the city and a ‘bazaar’ is on their agenda too.
Wonder if there’s a market for so many sales? Rumour is the FLO women were very tightfisted — kept bargaining for everything. Apparently, the YEO group, especially the members from outstation, seem to have deep pockets cos they splurge like crazy, they find Hyderabad prices very low compared to Delhi.
Who, What, When, Where, Why
Who is every lady’s 3 am friend? Suket Gujral. The ladies swear they can count on Suket whenever in need of help.
What is the latest update on SS? That she’s seeing VR now!
When M was single, everyone found it so easy to belittle her. Now, with tonnes of good luck, she’s well placed in society and all those who ticked her off are literally gobsmacked.
Where are all the youngsters gathering in the evenings of late? At Dhruv Morarka’s place, practicing for his sangeet.
Why did everyone want to go to the wedding of Y.V. Subba Reddy-Swarnalata’s son? This couple is Mrs YSR’s sister and brother-in-law, so people wanted to see whether all those who toed their line when YSR was in power, will show up even now!
Wicked whisper
Everyone is curious to know the whereabouts of one Mr B, son-in-law of a former minister R who was very close to the late CM YSR and has benefited a lot with that proximity. Apparently he too is under the CBI radar, but his name hasn’t been made public as yet.
