CNN-IBN Rewrites Chiranjeevi's Career

In a news article titled 'Fans cheer for Chiranjeevi on b'day', Prachi Jatania wrote, "In fact, there were near stampedes at city�s cinema halls during the release of his last two movies - Gangleader and Tagore."

Gangleader was released in 1991 and Tagore was released in 2003. Chiranjeevi acted in more than 20 movies between 1991 nd 2003.
You can ask 'How the f*** can Gangleader and Tagore be the 'last two movies' of Chiranjeevi then?' One, It is CNN_IBN and two, seems like Prachi can't tell Chiranjeevi from Chirrapunji.
Check out Chiru's bio and filmography onIMDB. (Prachi, did you get that hint? eh?)

The article says famous movies not last movies.Maybe they corrected it after you wrote your piece here.

"In fact, there were near stampedes at city�s cinema halls during the release of two of his famous movies - Gangleader and Tagore."

Hey Sorry to post this message here. I even tried to send emails to suman@sumankumar.com but its failing. I am getting some of your personal and business emails to me(I guess you may have created suman.kumar@gmail.com), but gmail doesn't recognise it even though you give a dot between names. So please kindly give your other email ids for your friends and to business dealing :).

Is this Rajdeep Sardesai's news channel?

If yes, no wonders the news is not authentic!

Can't tell Chiranjeevi from Chirapunji. That was funny. I don't care for the news, so didn't check the link.
