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

Allu Aravind in swift calculations

Allu aravind is considered as best mathematician in film industry. With tremendous experience in dealing the big budget flicks and with popularity in delivering industry hits at regional and National scale, the upcoming ‘Badrinath’ stands as a tough exam for him. Coming in four languages on 10th of this month, there are high expectations built up on this crazy combination of Vinayak, Bunny and Tamanna.


Already the extensive publicity showcasing enormous settings erected and lengthy video of making of ‘Badrinath’ are creating immense interest in audience. The volatile nature of big budget films swinging towards either super hits or super flops is matter of relevance for ‘Badrinath.’ In order to stay profited with either of the results, allu aravind and Geetha Arts are heard to be busy involved in swift calculations deciding the number of screens, number of shows and number of prints that re to be dispatched by 10th. Wish that allu aravind’s supremacy in Indian film industry be proved once again with ‘Badrinath.’
