Anantapur History

Anantapur offers some vivid glimpses of the prehistoric past. It is generally held that the place got its name from 'Anaatasagaram' , a big tank, which means "Endless Ocean". The villages of Anaantasagaram and Bukkarayasamudram were constructed by Chilkkavodeya, the minister of Bukka-I, a Vijayanagar ruler. Some authorities assert that Anaantasagaram was named after Bukka's queen, while some contend that it must have been known after Anantarasa Chikkavodeya himself, as Bukka had no queen by that name.
Anantapur is familiarly known as "Hande Anantapuram" . ' Hande ' means chief of the Vijayanagar period. Anantapur and a few other places were gifted by the Vijayanagar rulers to Hanumappa Naidu of the Hande family.
The place subsequently came under the Qutub Shahis, Mughals, and the Nawabs of Cuddapah, although the Hande chiefs continued to rule as their subordinates. It was occupied by the Palergar of Bellary during the time of Ramappa but was eventually won back by his son, Siddappa. Morari Rao Ghorpade attacked Anantapur in 1757. Though the army resisted for some time, Siddappa ultimately bought off the enemy for Rs.50,000.
It then came into the possession of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan. Tipu hanged all the male members of the Siddappa family except Siddappa who escaped from his confinement at Srirangapatnam. After Tipu's death, it was once again taken back by Siddappa. Siddappa submitted himself to Nizam because of the treaty of 1799, who took the total control of the area. He was later pensioned off when British occupied the territory

Pawan Kalyan In Financial Crisis!!


Reading the headline might make you say it is ridiculous but then there is an element of truth in it.Well, it is heard that Pawan Kalyan is currently on a money making spree and has been doing whatever he can to increase his earnings. With this, an expected question has risen as to why Pawan is doing this.
As for those who don’t believe it, they should ask themselves the question - Why is Pawan Kalyan suddenly doing so many films.

According to sources, he needs money desperately. It is not like he is on the roads but those who know him closely say that till now Pawan didn't earn much in cine industry. But now, it is heard that his objective is different. He wants to earn money for his kids.
The source reveals that this was also one requirement from Renu Desai which led to some friction recently. As such, Pawan has got one kid from his first marriage and a recent addition from Renu.

Inside talk is that Pawan also wants to start his own production and make small movies with other heroes. Also, he is keen on having partnership with big names for the new banner.
While that is one side, there are those who believe that since Pawan has got another 2-3 years as a hero so he is now making a platform to don the role of an entrepreneur in the film industry. But common suggestion given by all to Pawan is that he should focus on some quality scripts and fruitful projects. That will lead to good success and eventually good money.

Only time will reveal where and how Pawan will head in his money making journey.
