'Pokiri' music is creating waves
By B. Anuradha, Indo-Asian News Service
Hyderabad, May 4 (IANS) The combination of director Puri Jagannath and composer Mani Sharma, who teamed up for the first time for the film, has worked wonders for the album of "Pokiri", topping the fortnight's charts.

The top five Telugu albums are:
1. "Pokiri" - "Devuda" and "Ippatikinka na vayasu' are already a rage among youth. Film's success will boost up its craze among audience.
2. "Bangaram" - Composer Vidyasagar seems to have reserved his best for Pavan Kalyan. Though most of the tunes are catchy but "Ra ra bangaram" and "Egire chilakamma" stand out.
3. "Veerabhadra" - Mani Sharma produces just an above-average album. The chartbusters include "Mayavundi pillo" and "Sirimalli nelaku andam".
4. "Godavari" - Though the tunes sound similar to those of "Anand", upcoming composer Radhakrishna again relies on Carnatic music. "Andamgalena" and "Manasavacha" come as a breath of fresh air.
5. "Sri Ramadasu" - With new releases fizzling out, Keeravani's devotional album moves back into the list. "Tharaka Srirama" and "Hai lesa" are just too good.
'Pokiri' the pick of current Telugu films
By B. Anuradha, Indo-Asian News Service
Hyderabad, May 4 (IANS) After delivering smashing hit "Athadu", actor Mahesh draws huge audiences again with "Pokiri". The film stays on the top of the fortnight's list of Telugu films.
The top five Telugu films are:
1. "Pokiri" - The film has proved to be a typical mass entertainer. Mahesh plays a mafia goon and Illeana provides oomph to the hit flick. Director Puri Jaganath seems to have made a big comeback with it.
2. "Veerabhadra" - The much-hyped Balakrishna's film has opened well despite director Ravi Kumar's disappointing and disjointed screenplay.
3. "Pournami" - Hit-maker M.S. Raju's period film has had a good opening. The hotshot pair, Prabhas and Trisha, however, fails to recreate the magic of "Varsham".
4. "Sri Ramadasu" - Hectic promotion, including publicity to kudos from religious heads, has revived the film's collection in low-end theatres.
5. "Ranam" - Eetharam Films' winning streak continues with "Ranam". Though a clichéd potboiler, the film has made Gopichand a star to reckon with.
