Tollywood and Bollywood Videos

I haven't posted any Tollywood videos for ages, so I thought I'd share one today and also a Bollywood video, since I had planned to post more about Bollywood this year!



Tollywood

First up this is Seeti Maar from the Tollywood film DJ - Duvvada Jagannadham. It's an action comedy which came out in June and is about a man called Duvvada Jagannadham (played by Allu Arjun), a Brahmin priest who moonlights as DJ,  a crime fighter in disguise (like a superhero!). He falls in love with Pooja (Pooja Hegde) who is involved with a crime boss.

This is a dance scene from the movie. The playback singers are Jaspreet Jasz and Rita.





Bollywood

And here is Piya More from the Bollywood film Baadshaho which stars Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi (one of my favourite actors), Ileana D'Cruz, Esha Gupta and Vidyut Jamwal

The film is set during the Emergency time period in the mid 70s. Indian queen Gitanjali (played by Ileana who started out in Tollywood) asks her bodyguard Bhawani Singh (Ajay) to steal back gold for her, which was taken from her palace in Jaipur by the government. Bhawani gathers a team together to carry out her wish. Emraan plays army officer Dalia.

This is inspired by real life events and the character of Gitanjali is based on the Maharani Gayatri Devi. Baadshaho was released on 1st September.

The video for Piya More features Emraan and Canadian/American actress Sunny Leone, who is an item girl in Baadshaho, appearing as a dancer. It's not the full song I don't think. The playback singers are Mika Singh and Neeti Mohan.




Random fact: I just read that Sunny is in Ja Rule's Living It Up video! You can look out for her here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2012/02/weekly-music-video_29.html



Both films sound interesting but Baadshaho seems like the one I'd like the most. :)


Emraan fan too? Check out these posts:

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

20th Anniversary of Mariah's The Emancipation of Mimi Album- Part 1

My favourite singer Mariah Carey is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of her 10th studio album The Emancipation of Mimi. It was released back in April 2005. I'd planned to write just one post about the album but it was turning into a really long one, so I've decided to divide it into two parts! Here is Part 1. :) The Emancipation of Mimi (or TEOM for short!) was considered Mariah's "comeback album" at the time, following on from her previous two albums, Glitter (2001) which was accompanied by the film of the same name and Charmbracelet (2002). Neither the Glitter movie or album were very well received and after going through a difficult time in general, Mariah had an emotional and physical breakdown and checked into hospital that summer. She was diagnosed with bipolar II disorder , although didn't feel ready to speak about it pubicly until several years later .  Although Charmbracelet (MC's first release after leaving Virgin Records America and singing w...
