Hence, Gali brothers who lead a luxurious life until they got arrested by CBI were forced to stay along with the other prisoners in Chanchalguda jail, until Friday.

New Delhi, Jan 9 (IANS) Arbaaz Khan and Anurag Kashyap, who locked horns on Twitter last year, cleared their misunderstandings at Farhan Akhtar's surprise birthday party in Mumbai.
'Met Anurag Kashyap at Farhan's party after his Twitter outburst. Had a long chat. All izz well now,' Arbaaz tweeted Monday. The party took place Sunday midnight.
Arbaz also posted a picture of the two of them in a side-hug pose with each other, displaying happy times.
The Twitter war between the two filmmakers began after it was announced that Arbaaz will direct the sequel of 2010 blockbuster 'Dabangg', helmed by Anurag's brother, Abhinav.
According to reports, Anurag had felt Abhinav was asked to leave the project. So in anger, he posted negative comments about Khan brothers - Arbaaz and Salman. What followed was an exchange of bitter retaliation.
Once Anurag learnt that Abhinav had opted out of 'Dabangg 2' himself, peace prevailed. But it is only now that Anurag and Arbaaz have buried the hatchet.
'Dabangg 2' features Salman Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, and southern star Prakash Raj as the villain. The film will release towards the end of 2012.
Former PRP leader Shoba Rani who differs with Chiranjeevi over merging Praja Rajyam into Congress party wrote a strong letter to him protesting against his decision. She told the media that, many of the PRP leaders are against the merging but Chiranjeevi who want to wipe his hands off the party at the earliest has hurriedly winds-up the party without consulting all the leaders, including his own brothers Pawan Kalyan and Naga babu who strived hard to establish the party. She criticized Chiranjeevi for keeping both his brothers in dark about his decision.
Shoba Rani said In fact both his brothers are also opposed his decision. Pawan Kalyan has thought that, even if the party initially faces setback in the elections, certainly it has a great future if withstands the test of the times. Pawan Kalyan is a gentle man and a person of high caliber. Though, he looks very reserved he is very ambitious, positive minded and charges the surroundings with his charisma. But, Chiranjeevi rather prefers to take his brother-in-law Allu Aravind into confidence than his two loyal brothers, which I think is a big blunder in his life time. Thats why both his brothers are now staying away from him.
2011/9/4 0:49:37 Mining barons Reddy brothers' loyalist B. Sriramulu Sunday quit the Karnataka assembly and said he will announce his future plans after touring the state.
Sriramulu is upset that he has not been made a minister again. He was the health minister in the former B.S. Yeddyurappa cabinet and was named in the illegal mining scam, along with the Reddy brothers - G. Janardhana and G. Karunakara.
"I am resigning from the assembly as my image has been damaged following the Lokayukta report. I am going to submit the resignation to Speaker K.G. Bopaiah today (Sunday) and will announce my plans later," said Sriramulu, addressing media.
He did not take any questions.
Sriramulu represents the Bellary rural constituency in iron-ore rich Bellary district, about 300 km from Bangalore. Bellary is the political stronghold of Reddy brothers.
He did not quit the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), though there was speculation he might do so to float a regional party with the backing of the Reddys.
The Reddy brothers have also not been included in the Sadananda Gowda ministry which took office Aug 4, four days after scam-hit Yeddyurappa quit July 31.
There is no immediate threat to the Gowda ministry, which is the second BJP cabinet in the only southern state it is in power, as the ruling party still has 118 legislators and the support of one independent in the 225-member house including one nominated. (IANS)
2007/10/15 5:50:44 The Hyderabad brothers Marri Sasidhar Reddy and P Janardhan Reddy were at the receiving yesterday. The two legislators went to the Hyderabad airport to receive the President Pratibha Patil. But the two were stopped from entering the tarmac by the CISF.
Even after showing their passes issued by the General Administration Department and revealing their identity, they were not allowed to go inside. The two legislators have now decided to take this issue to the notice of the government.
The Hyderabad brothers Marri Sasidhar Reddy and P Janardhan Reddy met the AICC in charge for Andhra Pradesh Veerappa Moily in New Delhi on Tuesday. Moily is the new in charge for AP affairs and he replaces Digvijay Singh.
The Hyderabad brothers are a thorn in the flesh of chief minister Y S Rajashekar Reddy. The former PCC chief K Keshava Rao had served them with show-cause notices. The duo is reported to have submitted a big secret file containing the list of their grievances against the chief minister.
2007/10/11 10:55:28 The media scene in Hyderabad is getting hotter by the day. A spate of new dailies, weeklies and TV channels are hitting the state at regular intervals. The Hyderabad brothers M Sasidhar Reddy and P Janardhan Reddy now plan to join the media bandwagon. The duo is understood to have registered with the Registrar of Newspaper in Delhi a new title for the paper. The title is Darpanam. The work on the new daily is expected to commence shortly and the paper is likely to come out early next year.
Happy birthday to Mass raja Ravi Teja. He turns 42 today.
While it should be a happy occasion to him, his two brothers Raghu and Bharath who caught red hand carrying drugs few months ago, annoys him as they both have to attend the Crime Police Station today for signing the attendance register to conform that they didnt left the city nor they were absconding from the police. While, they are returning from the Police Station, when media tried to ask them some questions and to capture them in their cameras, they burst with angry and abused the media persons. Indeed, brothers like them are disgraceful to a hero like Ravi Teja who had a good reputation in the industry as well as in the audiences.
It is quiet a coincident that producer C.Kalyan also visits the same police Station today to face further interrogation.
It seems now the crime police have to open a separate station in Film Nagar to process all the cases of Tollywood.

The sensitive situation in the state creates sparks out of every small incident and leaves its impact on the political parties and the state Government. The state of instability makes even elections for local bodies and cooperators a big task and obliges the concerned to take it a prestigious issue. Then, one cant expect the MLC elections be a low key affair. Congress, TDP and recently launched YSRC parties have had a bitter fight over the MLC elections and takes equal share of the results.
However, the aftermath of MLC verdict is some what hard to digest for Congress party where as the other two were quite happy for the out come.
Congress has won 3 out of 9 MLC seats. Congress ministers blame JC brothers for forcing the party for a self goal. Minister Raghuveera Reddy, who have enmity and grudges with JC brothers have termed JC Diwakar Reddy as a poisonous insect living inside the party and need to eliminate immediately.
On the other side, Ambati Rambabu the vociferous leader from Jagans camp has flayed DL Ravindra Reddy, Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy and other ministers who boasted of a clean sweep before the elections. He said, DLR and KKR who have openly challenged to defeat Jagans candidates but couldnt make their candidates win in their own constituencies are no more entitled to hold their posts and he demanded for an immediate resignation of the both.
TDP, which has won 3 MLC seats, is neither happy nor unhappy for its performance in the elections.
However, these elections leave a clear hint for the forthcoming by-elections in Kadapa district. It proves that, the people of Kadapa like to swing more toward Jagan Mohan Reddy than the Congress party, come how big leader handles and campaigns for the Congress party.
However, it also warns Jagan group that, it is not that so easy to win the elections and he need to put much more effort, if he is really serious about his political future.
So, it makes understand Congress that, a young chick like Jagan also can pose a big threat for it. For Jagan, unless he creates strong cadres for himself and his party, it would not be a cake walk for him even in the by-elections. For TDP, it proves that, still it has strong cadres but unless it reorganizes its cadres, it cant expect any miracles in the next general elections.
