Get your lowdown on what's happening in Telugu cinema.

Sudheer's debut film SMS (Shiva Manasulo Shruthi) has won some accolades and critical appreciation. It also had a decent run at the box office. 

Encouraged by this, Sudheer has signed his next film, an action entertainer directed by Vamsi Krishna Akella (who directed Raksha, the Telugu remake of Ram Gopal Varma's Phoonk).

This will perhaps give Sudheer the opportunity to show off his six-packs and give another power-packed performance. A little concentration on his voice, though, would do him good!
