M9News’s Top 10 Most Popular Stars In April 2023

M9.news’s special feature on the most happening celebrities in the recently bygone month has emerged as a smashing success with great reception from the industry and commoners alike. Here’s the newest feature on the same.

1. Rajinikanth

Rajini was the special guest for Sr NTR’s centenary birth celebrations. While all he did was speak well about his dear friend Chandrababu, he didn’t utter single word against YCP. But YCP flout is crying foul on him and abusing him verbally. This keeps him on the top of this list, given the unintended backfire he is getting from YCP troops.

2. Akhil Akkineni

Akhil pinned a lot his hopes on Agent which is the costliest project in his career. He put in his best efforts for the film and went through physical conditioning for the same. But sadly for him, his efforts didn’t yield desired results.

3. Samantha

The seasoned actress has made it to the list for the wrong reason, much like Akhil. Her latest theatrical outing Shakuntalam is lambasted from all quarters. This is one of the biggest disasters in Telugu cinema and the biggest in her career. She was targeted by a section of the Telugu folk over this poor result.

4. Allu Arjun

He first made headlines for Pushpa 2 teaser and the striking first look. Then came the social media verbal exchange with Jr NTR where they called each other bava and had a fun conversation.

5. Virupaksha

Sai Dharam Tej made a comeback of big property on with Virupaksha which stands as the highest grossing film in his career now. He has regained mojo with this film and at a much needed juncture. The film is a content driven thriller and ticked the right boxes amongst the Telugu folk. Sai is greatly relieved with this film’s result.

6. NTR

First, NTR had a lavish party with Amazon Prime Video global vice president at his house. Then there’s the social media interaction with Allu Arjun as mentioned before. And then there was a notable mention from Hollywood filmmaker James Gunn who stated he wants to make a film with the RRR hero.

7. Surender Reddy

This man is another one on the list for the wrong reason. When the producer and hero trusted him with the film, he rolled out an epic disaster with Agent. He is facing a whole lot of criticism for his lackluster efforts.

8. Gunasekhar

This veteran hoped to make a comeback with Shakuntalam but it just ended up as another disaster of epic proportions for him. He too is facing a ton of backlash for his questionable efforts in making the film.

9. Mythri Movie Makers

Mythri are one of the top production houses in Tollywood and they most recently made headlines over the Income Tax department raids. The top production house is now focused on Pushpa 2 which is one of the most anticipated pan Indian projects in the making.

10. Ravi Teja

Ravi Teja was on a high after Waltair Veerayya and Dhamaka. But Ravanasura brought him crashing down with its disastrous failure. He tried to offer something new but the effort wasn’t effective and things went horribly South.
