Like the big hit  Mogalirekulu, another mega tv serial based on the story of Yuddhanapudi SulochanaRani, Agnipoolu has been on air on Gemini TV prime time slot, immediately preceding the Mogalirekulu telecast time ie. from 8 pm. to 8:30 pm. 

This Telugu serial is also going to be a marvelous hit like Mogalirekulu in all aspects with the brilliant direction of Manjula Naidu and superb scene creations by Bindu Naidu.

"Agnipulu" literally means "Fire Flowers". They can face sun's heat and wild storms and yet stand fresh and still on the branches without losing their softness and brilliant shine. The tree also gives shelter to many lives until it can. The characters of the four girls are symbolized as "fire flowers" trying to do something always for the good of society with their great intentions, honesty, and perseverance.

The story of Agnipoolu revolves around four young college freshers Rajyalakshmi, Mythili, Neelaveni, and Sonia. It portrays the deeply bonded friendship between these four girls based on pure love and affection for each other. Even though they were brought up in different cultures and atmospheres, they are so deeply bonded to each other that classes and castes do not come in between them. They share every moment of joy with each other and are ever ready to help one another in moments of grief.

The story started in a village Suravaram with a love affair between Govind, a lecturer, and his student Parvathi. As Parvathi belonged to a high-class family, her marriage was fixed with one Swamidas(son of a rich village head of Suravaram village), who later becomes M.P. As Swamidas comes to know of the love affair, he manages to kidnap Govind master with the help of an S.I., and manages to put him in an unknown cell of Cherlapally Jail under life-term imprisonment. Nobody was aware of this. As Parvati was pregnant, her mother conceals the fact from others by keeping her away from home for some months till delivery period. The child was stealthily taken away from Parvathi and she was told that a dead child was born to her. After that Parvathi was convinced to marry Swamidas through emotional blackmailing by her parents.

Rajyalakshmi has no father. Her mother is everything for her. Even though she is working as HR in a big company where the wife of M.P Swamidas (Parvathi) is M.D., she still behaves like a child with her mother. Her action is worth watching. MD Parvathi gets attracted at the beauty and innocence of this girl and decides to marry her son Viren to this girl. She disclosed her wish to Rajalakshmi's mother also. But Swamidas wanted to marry his son Viren with the daughter of a big industrialist friend. So he plots for the elimination of Rajyalakshmi from the scene by creating an accident when verbal warnings to her mother failed. While Rajyalakshmi was in office, her mother comes to her in a fear to take her to temple for praying to God. But the brakes of their car were got tampered by Swamidas's men and Rajyalakshmi gets brain injury in the accident and is admitted to a hospital.

Mythili is an orphan and running an ashram with the salary she gets by working in a company. She has a childhood friend Shyam who went abroad many years ago for studies and returns to India and established a big advertising agency. He gathers information regarding his childhood friend Mythili somehow but wanted to know whether she still remembers and loves him. He makes Facebook friends with her and interacts. But he wanted to confirm before advancing. So he enters into the field with a changed look and name to test her. He meets her boss on the pretext of making some contracts with the company. Mythili did not recognize him and keeps indifferent. She gets annoyed as he follows her. She thinks him to be a characterless person. He discloses his identity to her as her childhood friend Shyam. But she did not believe him at first and when she was made to believe that he is her childhood Shyam, she breaks. She thinks he had cheated her and is not moral. She tells him to get away from her life. Later, when she realizes that all this was done only to get nearer to her, she repents but by that time Shyam leaves the country.

Neelaveni is the daughter of a newspaper owner/editor. She works in a TV channel as a news reader. Her interest in books and other fields make her come in contact with a young lawyer Pruthvi, who has just started his career. He is an angry young man worried at the crimes in society. He is fascinated by Neelaveni's tastes and thoughts. As he thinks himself to be an orphan, he finds pleasure and intimacy in Neelaveni's company. Even though he is more emotional and very intimate with Govind Master who is in Cherlapally Jail and regards him as his most close acquaintance and an elderly respectable person, he is unaware that he is his own father as this fact is being kept very secret by Govindji fearing danger to his life.

Sonia is interested in the modeling career. But her parents who are both doctors and running their own hospital, wanted her to work with them. Sonia does not like this and fearing force by father, she leaves the house to return to them only after achieving her goal. In the pursuit, she enters Mumbai and gets trapped in the hands of some bad intent people in fleeing from whom, she gets caught by police who mistook her for a prostitute. However, with the help of a gentle young man Abbas, she gets out of all these dangers and lives in his protection. With his efforts, she gets some appointments with the big advertising agency boss, Shyam who might help her in achieving her goal.

Now, we have to watch how many turns the story will take. Whether Rajyalakshmi and her young boss Viren get married and lead a happy life? 

Whether Prithvi Teja is able to recognize his father and gets acquainted with all the happenings?

Whether Parvathi recognizes Prithvi to be her son? 

Whether Prithvi and Neelaveni get knotted up? 

What is the fate of Mythili and Shyam? 

Whether Sonia succeeds in achieving her dream and who is going to be her life partner? 

Whether the deep bondedness and love between all these four young women last till the end? 

To get answers to all these questions watch the Telugu daily serial Agnipoolu on Gemini tv.

MOGALIREKULU - A TV Serial With High Social and Moral Values of Life

A great Telugu Mega TV Serial named MOGALIREKULU is on the air for more than four years on Gemini TV ( Telugu ) channel. It is great because its story is centered around the unparalleled ethical and moral values of society. It is great because it is based on a novel of the great Telugu Novel Writer Yuddhanapudi Sulochana Rani. She is one of the greatest writers of novels based on the social and ethical values of life. Her characters are superb in all her novels. Her imagination spins great male and female characters possessed with very gentle and moral values and yet arrogant and dominant to the circumstances. And, the screenplay has been beautifully spiced up with nice and appealing dialogues by Bindu Naidu which added more colors to the serial.

The title was very suitably chosen by the story writer as "Mogalirekulu". It represents the beautiful, fragrant flowers called Mogalirekulu which blossom in the midst of thorns and snakes but remain intact unaffected by the surroundings by spreading a good fragrance and giving beauty to the surroundings. The main characters of first-generation Dharma, Satya, Daya, Keerthana, Shanti, and Selva Swamy represent these flowers who were born and grown up in the midst of crimes, quarrels, and violence between families; but they emerged as good characters with high moral values, with infinite love, and unbreakable bondage in spite of all those oddities and sufferings they faced. And, R.K.Naidu was the most admired ideal character of all those main characters as evident from the applause and fanfare he received in a very short span of time.

In Mogalirekulu, the main hero R.K.Naidu is such a great personality. At present, he is DG of Mumbai in the story. Previously, as an ACP, he has gone through many agonies of life along with the other main hero, Dharma who is the eldest brother of R.K. Naidu's wife Shanti in the story. Both the characters are main heroes even though it was supposed by the writer that Dharma would be the main hero. Both these characters are of superb nature. They possessed all the good qualities of sweetness in voice, humbleness, respect for others and their values, loyalty, kindness, strength to face any type of situation, eagerness to help the needy, and whatnot.




Dharma was more kind-hearted and brings up his two brothers and a sister and one neighbored orphan girl with love, care, and responsibility. For their livelihood, he had to work under a contractor who was a gang leader and local Don. Dharma was very loyal to his employer who offered them food, shelter, and work. That contractor was also very friendly with him as Dharma was very loyal and protected him from all odds. But due to some incidences, their friendship breaks, and Dharma was unable to digest the fact, that this closest friend-cum-employer Selvarajan and his mother Gomathi were behind their and their family's destruction. His conscience does not want to believe this. But it was a fact. There was a lot of inner conflict in his mind regarding what is right, what is wrong, what is moral, what is immoral, why people do wrong things and crimes, etc. Due to this conflict and mental confusion, he leaves all his men and goes to solitude in search of some answer for all this. His acting depicting all these feelings is great.


Similarly, The character of R.K.Naidu as a responsible police officer is very great. He deals with everything with great responsibility, keeping aloof all family matters during work. He faced many worst moments of his life during the discharge of his duties. But he was very determined, bold, smart, and cautious in all his actions and outcomes all hurdles. His character should be an exemplary example of the Khaki uniform in self-discipline, loyalty, endurance, confidence, smartness, and willpower. The police department should learn lessons by seeing this character.


All the characters in this serial are marvelous. But, what I want to stress here is their acting talents. If you watch the serial, you yourself will come to know how great their performance is.


R.K.Naidu's character is cast by M.Sagar. His action is superb. His expression of emotions at the victims of violence and injustice, his expression of loyalty and sincerity at the workplace, and his acting during dealing with his superiors in the middle stage of the story, and his present dignity as DG of Police, his habits and walking style and speaking style are best suited to the position. His other character, as Munna the missing son during blasts, and his portrayal of the character as a goonda (mafia-don) was also very fascinating. His aggressiveness as an angry young man, with a pistol and cigarette and hanging coat during his encounters for taking revenge on bad elements of society and his acting as drinker are all very naturally portrayed by him. His encounters with each and every character are very greatly performed by him with superb skill. It seems acting has come from birth to him. Nothing appears to be artificial in his expressions or movements throughout the scenes. His present portion as Mahidhar Naidu is very fascinating and you would love to watch him stuck to the small screen especially during his encounters with Gomathi.


Gomathi's role is cast by A.Sruthi. She had acted previously in other serials and movies also. Her action in this Mogalirekulu is very great and mind-blowing. Her expression of anger, cruelty, wickedness, cunning nature, etc. are so super that you feel wholly moved with her expressions and become restless to do something to prevent her from doing any harm to your other loved characters. Such is her acting talent. Her speaking style, ascent, and action are very suitable to her role and nobody else could have done so much justice to the role.


The characters of Selvaswamy and his son Ishwar are also very suitably enacted by the actors doing those roles. Previously, the Selvaswamy role was done by a person with the same name. He was of a little bit gentle and subtle nature in the beginning when Dharma was associated with him. But later on, the role required a vigorous and more stubborn personality and so the actor was changed. The present actor of Selvaswamy's role is doing greater justice to the role. His expressions of feelings are very natural and his physique and dressing style, etc. are all best suited.

The heroine character of the first-generation Meenakshi and second-generation Devi was enacted by actor Likitha who is also a good actor. Her portrayal of Meenakshi as a South Indian humble, gentle, and kind-hearted character was very good. Beauty also contributed to her action. Her action as Devi was also very superb. She was able to portray all the feelings very naturally. The present actor of Devi portion is also good at acting. She is also doing her best to suit the character.


All other actors of the characters of Sathya, Shanti, Keerthana, Durga, Pallavi, Sindhu, Shanker, Rajani, Muniyamma, Aravind, his assistant Jagdish are all doing good in their roles. And not the least, Munna's tiny and lovely friend Ali character's actor is also to be not forgotten.


On the whole, Mogalirekulu is a great TV Serial in the Telugu language and it deserves felicitations by all Telugu people. The producers of the serial M/S Srikanth Entertainment Pvt.Ltd., Director Manjula Naidu, Script and dialogues writer Bindu Naidu, original story writer Yuddhanapudi Sulochana Rani, and Gemini TV are all commendable for presenting such a marvelous work to our Telugu Viewers. Further, all the actors and staff of the serial producing company are to be complimented for their contributions.
