    Game Changer Promotions Kick Off: Teaser Launch, Mega Events, and Global Hype Building for Ram Charan's Next Blockbuster!
    Starring mega power star Ram Charan, the latest film 'Game Changer', directed by Tamil star director Shankar, is a pan-Indian film set to release during the Sankranti festival next year. It will premiere globally on January 10. However, there has been some restlessness among mega fans regarding promotions and updates about 'Game Changer'. As the release date approaches, there is a growing call for the movie team to focus on promotions. Producer Dil Raju has made interesting remarks and announced the dates and locations of the promotional events in advance, much to the delight of mega fans. Promotion Plans Revealed Producer Dil Raju has provided clarity on the promotion events for 'Game Changer'. During a press meet held in Chennai, he revealed their promotion plans. Dil Raju stated that the teaser would be launched in Lucknow on the 9th of this month. Following that, a major event is planned in Dallas, USA. Another event is scheduled to take place in Chennai later on. Special events will be conducted in the first week of January across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. He also announced that 'Game Changer' will be released as a special for Sankranti on January 10th, mentioning that the film includes songs, commercial elements, and also a social message. https://twitter.com/TeamRCGuntur_/status/1854106243595690248 https://twitter.com/TheAakashavaani/status/1853657034605953343 Pre-Release Event in Tirupati! The movie team plans to hold a grand pre-release event for 'Game Changer' in Tirupati. If conditions permit, this event will take place in an open space in the presence of hundreds of thousands of fans. There are possibilities that Andhra Pradesh's Deputy Chief Minister and Ram Charan’s uncle, power star Pawan Kalyan, could be invited as the chief guest. Given the relationship with Ram Charan, it is unlikely that Pawan Kalyan would decline the invitation. Additionally, there is a plan to organize another promotional event in Hyderabad. Dil Raju’s 50th Film 'Game Changer' marks the 50th film in the prominent producer Dil Raju's career. He mentioned that director Shankar shared the story with him three years ago, which instantly piqued his interest. Co-producer Aditya Ram, who is a good friend and has produced four Telugu films, has been busy with business in Chennai. However, when approached to participate in the production of 'Game Changer', Aditya Ram immediately agreed. Sri Venkateswara Creations and Aditya Ram Movies will collaborate not only for 'Game Changer' but also for future projects. Concerns Over Shankar’s Form! After the blockbuster 'RRR', the mega fans were thrilled about Ram Charan's next film with director Shankar. However, the recent disaster of 'Bharateeyudu 2' directed by Shankar dampened their spirits. Netizens posted extensively that 'Bharateeyudu 2' didn’t feel like a typical Shankar film. Previous films directed by Shankar like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehitudu' also performed poorly at the box office, raising doubts among mega fans about his direction. Concerns are being expressed that if 'Game Changer' doesn’t perform well, it could lead to severe disappointment. On the other hand, 'Game Changer' is critical for Shankar to get back on the path of success. Producer Dil Raju also has high hopes for the film after facing significant losses with a 'Family Star' movie. Trending as Unpredictable The term 'Unpredictable' has been trending on social media for the past two days related to 'Game Changer', with many wondering why. Film industry sources say that 'Unpredictable' is a powerful line from the 'Game Changer' teaser spoken by Charan. Fans are already speculating in which context Charan will use this word in the film. It is also mentioned that the upcoming teaser on November 9th will have a runtime of 1 minute and 40 seconds.

It seems that mega hero Ram Charan is following in the footsteps of pan-India star Prabhas. Prabhas' film 'Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire' was released last Christmas and achieved blockbuster success. However, there's a reason why 'Salaar' was released during Christmas. With Mahesh Babu (Guntur Karam), Nagarjuna (Naa Saami Ranga), Venkatesh (Saindhav), and Teja Sajja (HanuMan) competing in the 2024 Sankranti season, it was decided to release 'Salaar' solo during Christmas for better box office results. Now, Ram Charan & Co are also contemplating a similar strategy. With Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 'Vishwambhara' locked for Sankranti 2025, and other major films like Venkatesh-Anil Ravipudi's film, Ajith's 'Good Bad Ugly', and 'Shatamanam Bhavati 2' also likely to compete, a Christmas release would enable Ram Charan to make a significant impact at the box office, just like Prabhas. Director Shankar's High Hopes! Director Shankar's recent release 'Bharateeyudu 2' was met with severe disappointment, with netizens commenting that it did not feel like a typical Shankar film. His previous films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office. Therefore, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar to return to the path of success. Producer Dil Raju is also hoping to recover from the disappointment of his last film 'Family Star,' starring Vijay Deverakonda, which was a significant failure at the box office. Currently, both the director and producer are pinning their hopes on the success of the Charan movie.

    Game Changer: Mega Fans in Tension.. 'Game Changer' Not Releasing This Year?
    Game Changer: Mega Fans in Tension.. 'Game Changer' Not Releasing This Year?
    Following the blockbuster 'RRR', Ram Charan is starring in 'Game Changer', a political drama directed by Tamil cinema's renowned director Shankar and produced by Tollywood's notable producer, Dil Raju. Recently, Dil Raju hinted at a Christmas release, which had mega fans celebrating. However, new issues have surfaced that could potentially delay the film's release this year. What's the Reason? There's strong buzz that 'Game Changer', starring mega power star Ram Charan, might not release this year as planned. Although initially set for a Christmas release, it's now uncertain due to incomplete shooting. It's reported that more than 15 days of shooting are still pending, and director Shankar is still scouting for new locations. This could mean more time is needed to finish the shooting, followed by post-production and dubbing, possibly pushing the release past December. 2024 Summer Release? The 'Game Changer' film, a collaboration between Ram Charan and Shankar, might move from December to the summer of 2025. Even though there's a chance for a Sankranti release if December is missed, several films are already slated for the Pongal competition. The makers of megastar Chiranjeevi’s ‘Vishwambhara’ have announced a Sankranti release. Similarly, films starring Venkatesh and Anil Ravipudi, and Ajith’s ‘Good Bad Ugly’, and ‘Shatamanam Bhavati 2’ are also aiming for the same festive release. In this context, it seems unwise for the 'Game Changer' team to join the race. Given the exam season in February and March, cinema pundits are speculating a possible release during the summer holidays. High Hopes on Game Changer! Director Shankar’s recent release 'Indian 2' disappointed audiences, failing to meet expectations and earning criticism online. His previous films such as 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office. Therefore, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar to regain his successful track. Producer Dil Raju is also counting on this film to recover from the financial losses incurred from Vijay Deverakonda's 'Family Star', which flopped at the box office. Currently, both the director and producer are heavily reliant on the success of this Charan movie. Kiara’s Poster Hits the Mark! In 'Game Changer', Bollywood beauty Kiara Advani stars as the female lead. Recently, on her birthday, the film team released a special poster where Kiara looks stunning in a multi-colored lehenga. This look is from the movie's first single, 'Jaragandi Jaragandi'. In addition to Charan and Kiara, S.J. Surya, Anjali, Srikanth, Nazar, Naveen Chandra, and Samuthirakani play significant roles in the film.

    Game Changer: Is the Release Date for 'Game Changer' Set? Ram Charan Follows in Prabhas' Footsteps!
    Game Changer: Is the Release Date for 'Game Changer' Set? Ram Charan Follows in Prabhas' Footsteps!
    Following the blockbuster success of 'RRR', Mega Power Star Ram Charan is set to appear in 'Game Changer', directed by renowned Tamil cinema director Shankar. This film has generated high expectations among audiences, including Mega fans and regular moviegoers alike. Recently, the film's producer, Dil Raju, sparked further excitement by making intriguing remarks and hinting at the release date for 'Game Changer', leading to a flurry of eager posts from fans about the confirmed release date. Is It Releasing on That Day? Produced by the prominent producer Dil Raju, 'Game Changer' is being crafted as a political action thriller. At the recent pre-release event of 'Raayan', Dil Raju responded about the release of 'Game Changer', hinting at a Christmas release. This suggests that 'Game Changer' might hit the screens on December 25 as a Christmas gift. It marks the 50th film produced under the Sri Venkateswara Creations banner, making it a prestigious project for Dil Raju. The editing work for this movie is currently underway. https://twitter.com/i/status/1815052022200013098 Ram Charan in Prabhas' Path! It appears that Mega Hero Ram Charan is emulating Pan India Star Prabhas. Last year, Prabhas starred in 'Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire,' which was released as a Christmas gift and became a blockbuster, grossing Rs. 700 crores worldwide on December 22, 2023. The decision to release during Christmas was strategic, aimed at avoiding competition with major stars like Mahesh Babu, Nagarjuna, and Venkatesh, who had films lined up for the Sankranti festival in January 2024. Similarly, Ram Charan and his team are considering a solo Christmas release to ensure strong box office returns without facing competition from other big names. For Sankranti 2025, Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 'Vishwambhara' has been scheduled, and films like Venkatesh’s new project with Anil Ravipudi and Ajith’s 'Good Bad Ugly', as well as 'Shatamanam Bhavati 2' are also expected to release. Thus, releasing 'Game Changer' as a Christmas gift could potentially replicate the box office impact seen with 'Salaar.' High Hopes for Game Changer! Following the disappointment of Shankar's recent release 'Bharateeyudu 2', which failed to meet audience expectations and was widely criticized online, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar's return to success. Shankar's previous films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office, adding to the pressure. Dil Raju, too, is looking to rebound from the significant losses incurred from Vijay Deverakonda's 'Family Star', which was a box office disaster. The industry is abuzz with talk that 'Game Changer' will be a significant turnaround for both the director and the producer. All hopes for success are now pinned on this Ram Charan movie. Is This the Story? A leading OTT platform, Amazon Prime, has already revealed the storyline of 'Game Changer'. Announcing its upcoming films on their platform, Amazon Prime unveiled the plot of 'Game Changer', which revolves around an honest IAS officer fighting political corruption. Reports suggest that Charan will be seen in dual roles as father and son. Kiara Advani is starring opposite Ram Charan. Other significant roles are played by Srikanth, Sunil, Naveen Chandra, Jayaram, Samuthirakani, and Anjali. S. S. Thaman is providing the music for this film.

    Ram Charan Rejects Reshoots for 'Game Changer' Amid Shankar's Demands?
    Ram Charan Rejects Reshoots for 'Game Changer' Amid Shankar's Demands?
    Following the massive success of 'RRR', Ram Charan is starring in the highly anticipated film 'Game Changer', directed by Tamil cinema's renowned Director Shankar. This political action thriller, produced by prominent Tollywood producer Dil Raju, has generated significant buzz among the audience. As fans eagerly await its release, let's dive into some recent updates, including a shocking piece of news circulating online. Ram Charan Says No! There's a strong buzz that 'Game Changer' is set to release this December. Having completed the shooting recently, Ram Charan has shifted his focus to his next project under director Buchi Babu's 'RC16', for which he has grown out his hair and bulked up. However, it's reported that Director Shankar is dissatisfied with certain scenes from 'Game Changer' and wants them reshot. Producer Dil Raju is said to have communicated this to Ram Charan, who has reportedly refused. Ram Charan believes that changing back to the 'Game Changer' look would delay the shooting of 'RC16', which already has scheduled dates, making it difficult to adjust. Dissatisfaction with Shankar! 'Game Changer' is Ram Charan's prestigious project post-'RRR', to which he has dedicated considerable time. However, Director Shankar has been simultaneously directing 'Indian 2', which has caused multiple breaks in the shooting schedule of 'Game Changer'. At one point, Shankar completely halted 'Game Changer', leading to a two-month shooting delay. This repeated disruption has reportedly frustrated Ram Charan. Now that the film's shooting is complete, the idea of reshooting does not sit well with him, especially after dedicating two years to the project. The industry buzz is that Ram Charan's refusal is also due to his commitment to 'RC16'. The Second Single is Coming! 'Mega' expectations surround the 'Game Changer' film. Any minor update about this movie instantly goes viral online. The makers have officially announced the release of the second single from the movie. On September 28th, the promo for the second song 'Ra Macha Macha' will be released, expected to be a solid mass beat by musical sensation Thaman. The first song 'Jaragandi Jaragandi' from 'Game Changer' was a sensation, which adds to the excitement. https://twitter.com/GameChangerOffl/status/1838889991860060639 All Eyes on 'Game Changer'! Director Shankar's recent release 'Indian 2' underwhelmed the audience, leading to significant online criticism that it didn't feel like a typical Shankar film. His previous films like 'Robot 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehitudu' also underperformed at the box office. Thus, 'Game Changer' has become critical for Shankar to regain his successful track. Producer Dil Raju also faces pressure as his last film 'Family Star', featuring Vijay Deverakonda, flopped dramatically at the box office, incurring heavy losses. The industry is now abuzz with hopes that 'Game Changer' will overturn the recent failures. Both the director and producer are pinning their hopes on the success of this Ram Charan movie.

    VD 12: Vijay Deverakonda Chilling in Sri Lanka, Viral Video of Him Steering a Boat!
    Vijay Deverakonda is one of the popular young heroes in Tollywood who has made a name for himself without any film background. He became an overnight star with the movie ‘Arjun Reddy’. His subsequent successes with 'Pelli Choopulu', 'Taxiwaala', and 'Geetha Govindam' secured his place in the Telugu film industry. However, his recent movies 'Liger', 'Kushi', and 'Family Star' did not do well at the box office. Currently, there are high hopes for his ongoing project 'VD12'. Vijay is currently in Sri Lanka shooting for 'VD12' and is having a chill time there. Vijay Chilling While Steering a Boat! The movie 'VD 12', a Vijay Deverakonda-Gowtam Tinnanuri combo, is currently being shot at a brisk pace in Sri Lanka. Vijay is working hard for his role in this new look for the movie while also enjoying his downtime. Videos of Vijay enjoying a boat ride in the waters have gone viral online. He shared a video of a sunset boat ride on his Instagram account, which has been widely shared and celebrated by his fans for his boat driving skills. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vijay Deverakonda (@thedeverakonda) The Movie Will Be in Two Parts... Producer Nagavanshi recently spoke about 'VD 12', mentioning that the movie will be released in two parts. "I am not taking any risks with Vijay Deverakonda’s film. The content justifies two parts, and based on the outcome of the first part, we will proceed with the second," he said, confident of a hit. This is the first time a Vijay Deverakonda film will be made in two parts, as all his previous films were single installments. If all goes as planned, fans might see sequels in Vijay's career too. Competition with Pawan! With the announcement of the release date of 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' on Monday (September 23), a box office clash between Pawan and Vijay seems likely. 'VD 12' is set to release next year on March 28, the same day as 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu'. Fans of Vijay are gearing up for a big fight at the box office against a big star like Pawan. The producers close to Pawan, Sitara Entertainments, are producing 'VD 12', which might not push them to reschedule. Industry insiders speculate that it is unlikely for 'VD 12' to find a new release date given the circumstances. Vijay’s Future Projects! Currently, Vijay Deverakonda has a couple of exciting projects in hand besides 'VD 12'. Post 'Family Star', he is set to work on another project produced by Dil Raju and directed by Ravikiran Kola. Additionally, he is undertaking another project under the direction of Rahul Sankrityan, which is expected to be a period drama set in the Rayalaseema backdrop. Rashmika Mandanna is rumored to be cast opposite Vijay in this film.

With successes like 'Pelli Choopulu', 'Taxiwaala', and 'Geetha Govindham', he secured a solid position in the Telugu film industry. However, Vijay has been facing a rough patch recently, as his last three films, 'Liger', 'Kushi', and 'Family Star', did not perform well at the box office. This makes his upcoming project, 'VD12', highly anticipated not only by Vijay but also by his fans. Producer Naga Vamshi recently made some interesting remarks about this film, turning it into a hot topic in the industry. In Two Parts... Vijay Deverakonda  is currently working on a film directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, tentatively titled 'VD 12'. Producer Naga Vamshi has spoken about the film, revealing that it will be presented in two parts. "I am not taking any risks with the Vijay Deverakonda  film. We have content sufficient for two parts, and depending on the outcome of the first, we will proceed with the second. Gowtam Tinnanuri has beautifully crafted the story. We are confident it will be a blockbuster," said Naga Vamshi. Interestingly, this is the first time any of Vijay's films are planned as a two-part series, as all his previous films were single installments. If everything goes as planned, fans might get to see sequels in Vijay's career. With 'VD 12' already under high expectations, Naga Vamshi's comments have only heightened the excitement. The Captivating First Look! The makers of 'VD12' recently released the first look poster of the film. In it, Vijay appears in a massive look.

    Vijay Deverakonda, one of the most popular young heroes in Tollywood, enjoys unwavering fan admiration regardless of hits and misses. His rise to stardom was fueled by successful films such as 'Arjun Reddy,' 'Taxiwaala,' and 'Geetha Govindam.' However, he has been struggling with a lack of recent hits, with his last three films performing poorly at the box office. This has led to increased trolling and criticism. Recently, during a film event, director Trivikram made intriguing comments about Vijay Deverakonda, which have gone viral in Tollywood and on social media. "He has seen both adoration and hatred," At the pre-release event of Dulquer Salmaan's latest movie 'Lucky Bhaskar,' directed by Venky Atluri and set to release on October 31, Vijay Devarakonda and Trivikram were the chief guests. Trivikram praised the acting prowess of both Vijay Deverakonda and Dulquer Salmaan, calling them the great actors of this generation. He also mentioned his personal admiration for Vijay, stating, "Vijay has seen much love. But he has seen twice as much hatred. There's a line in Bal Gangadhar Tilak's novel 'The Night of Amrit' that says 'he is a great fighter.' This fits Vijay Deverakonda perfectly. Our boy is a true warrior." This comment has since become a sensation on the internet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhzeAy5OUl8 "Controversy if Khalnayak is called a flop," Vijay Deverakonda also spoke at the 'Lucky Bhaskar' pre-release event, making impactful remarks about director Trivikram. He reminisced about receiving his first paycheck from Sithara Entertainments, presented by Trivikram after the hit movie 'Pelli Choopulu,' during which Trivikram predicted his future stardom. Vijay called meeting Trivikram a significant moment in his life, expressing his admiration for Trivikram’s films like 'Manmadhudu,' 'Nuvvu Naaku Nachchaav,' and 'Jalsa.' He also stated that 'Athadu' and 'Khaleja' are among his favorites, and humorously remarked that he would fight anyone who calls 'Khaleja' a flop. https://twitter.com/oneindiatelugu/status/1850807211817369676 "Dulquer and Vijay Multistarrer," Vijay Deverakonda noted that he attended the 'Lucky Bhaskar' event for his "brother" Dulquer Salmaan. He reminded the audience of their collaboration in movies like 'Kalki' and 'Mahanati,' although they did not share scenes. He revealed that a director once considered making a multistarrer with him and Dulquer, and they even discussed the story together in Chennai, but the film never materialized. Vijay expressed hope that they might work together in the future, exciting the audience. https://twitter.com/ihsan21792/status/1850579970093129862 "Pelli Choopulu Combo Repeat," Vijay Deverakonda’s breakthrough film 'Pelli Choopulu,' directed by young director Tharun Bhascker, needs no special introduction for its success. However, the duo hasn't collaborated on another project since. Now, there's strong buzz about a new movie in the works under Tharun Bhascker’s direction with Vijay as the lead. It's said that Vijay has already heard the story and has agreed to the project, which will feature Tharun’s signature style of comedy along with action. Meanwhile, Vijay is currently involved in 'VD12,' an action thriller directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri. "Vijay’s Future Projects!"

    Bharateeyudu 3 Heading Straight to OTT: Can Shankar and Kamal Haasan Bounce Back After 'Bharateeyudu 2' Flop?
    Bharateeyudu 3 Heading Straight to OTT: Can Shankar and Kamal Haasan Bounce Back After 'Bharateeyudu 2' Flop?
    The film 'Bharateeyudu', which featured the successful combo of Kamal Haasan and director Shankar, created a sensation in the past. Its sequel 'Bharateeyudu 2' was released on July 12 this year amidst high pan-India expectations but unexpectedly ended up as a disaster. The film drastically failed to meet the audience's expectations. However, during the climax of this film, director Shankar confirmed the coming of 'Bharateeyudu 3' with a special trailer. Recently, there’s buzzing excitement around the third part, with rumors suggesting it’s heading directly to OTT. Let’s try to find out the truth. ‘Bharateeyudu 3’ Heading Straight to OTT! Another film under the direction of Shankar, starring Kamal Haasan, 'Bharateeyudu 3' is in continuation of their previous successful ventures. The second part, released in July this year, failed to win the audience's favor, leading to theatrical issues for the third installment. There seems to be reluctance from theater groups to take a risk on it. In this context, makers are preparing to directly release the third part on OTT, as is strongly circulated in Kollywood circles. However, netizens comment that releasing a film by Shankar and Kamal Haasan, who have a pan-India reputation, directly on OTT could be seen as a disgrace. Confirmed by OTT Circles! It's confirmed by Netflix circles that 'Bharateeyudu 3' will definitely be coming to OTT. There's a chance it will be streaming by January 2025, likely as a treat for Sankranti. An official announcement is expected soon. Meanwhile, 'Bharateeyudu 2', despite its flop talk in theaters, streamed on Netflix but failed to achieve expected viewership levels. Due to this, it’s rumored that the OTT rights for 'Bharateeyudu 3' might sell for a lower price. Harsh Trolls for 'Bharateeyudu 2'! In 'Bharateeyudu 2', Kamal Haasan appeared as a 106-year-old man, which brought significant trolling for the unrealistic portrayal of such an aged person performing action sequences. Critics pointed out that the plot and narrative of 'Bharateeyudu 2' were poor, and it did not resemble a typical Shankar film. Will a Game Changer Save the Day? The film 'Bharateeyudu 2' directed by Shankar was a massive disappointment. Following underperformances of Shankar's earlier films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehitudu' at the box office, there's a pressing need for a game-changer to revive his success streak. The success of this movie could potentially reestablish Shankar’s fame at a pan-India level, while failure might put his career at risk. Similarly, for producer Dil Raju, this game-changer is crucial to recover from past losses incurred under the 'Family Star' banner.

    Samantha Stuns in Action-Packed 'Citadel: Honey Bunny,' Streaming on OTT from November 7
    Samantha Stuns in Action-Packed 'Citadel: Honey Bunny,' Streaming on OTT from November 7
    Samantha Ruth Prabhu is one of the leading actresses in Tollywood. Despite taking a break from films due to health issues, Samantha remains constantly in the news. Her latest web series 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' is set to stream on OTT platforms from November 7. A trailer related to this series was recently released, in which Samantha dazzled everyone with her performance. She matched the action sequences with heroes in a way that captivated all viewers, bringing her name once again into the trending spotlight. It is reported that Samantha has received a significant remuneration for this series. How much was the remuneration? Samantha and Varun Dhawan played the lead roles in the web series 'Citadel: Honey Bunny.' Samantha portrayed the character of Honey while Varun Dhawan played Bunny. This is the first time Samantha will appear in a spy role in her career. She molded herself significantly for this and even took special training for the action sequences. It is reported that she received a huge remuneration for the Citadel web series, around Rs. 10 crores, according to Bollywood circles. For comparison, it was rumored that she received Rs. 5 crores for the film 'Kushi' with Vijay Devarakonda. This suggests that her payment for the series was double. Currently, Samantha's remuneration is considered higher compared to many actors and actresses in Telugu cinema. https://twitter.com/RottenTomatoes/status/1846350495113240740 The series with Samantha's craze at its peak! Samantha previously starred in the web series 'Family Man 2,' which streamed in 2021 and was directed by Raj and DK. In this series, she received widespread acclaim for her performance, especially in action sequences, which was a first in her career. Her portrayal of negative shades was particularly well received by the Bollywood audience. Interestingly, the directors of 'Family Man 2' are also directing 'Citadel: Honey Bunny.' According to the trailer, the character of Honey seems to feature even more action than the character of Raji in the previous series. The series is set to stream on Amazon Prime on November 7 and will be available in over 240 countries. I am still a bad actress: Samantha In a recent interview, Samantha reflected on her journey. She recalled her first film audition during 'Ye Maaya Chesave' and noted how different it was from her audition for 'Citadel.' In this web series, she had to act badly on purpose, and she performed well because she considers herself still partly a bad actress. "If I say I did my best, it doesn't mean the credit is all mine. The best in us only comes out when we are in the hands of the right team," Samantha explained. The highlight of the series! During the trailer launch of 'Citadel,' Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan made some interesting remarks. He mentioned that the climax of the series is on another level. "Samantha and I worked tirelessly for an action scene that lasts 11 minutes. We shot it in a single take without cuts. This scene will appear in the climax and will definitely add to the suspense," said Varun. This has greatly heightened the expectations among fans. Discussions are already underway about the impact 'Citadel' will make in India.

    Power Star's Son Akira: 10 Surprising Facts About the 6'4" Star Kid Who Doesn't Live with Mega Family
    Power Star's Son Akira: 10 Surprising Facts About the 6'4" Star Kid Who Doesn't Live with Mega Family
    Power Star Pawan Kalyan's son, Akira Nandan, always manages to stay in the news one way or another. Recently, Akira's name surged into the trending list again. There have been reports that he is playing a crucial role in Pawan Kalyan’s movie 'OG'. Fans are hoping that Akira will make his film debut with this Pawan movie. While many know him simply as Pawan Kalyan's son, let’s uncover 10 lesser-known secrets about him. Akira Nandan was born to Pawan and Renu Desai on April 8, 2004. At that time, Pawan had not yet married Renu Desai. They married in 2009 and separated in 2012. Anyone would be captivated by Akira’s cutout. He reminds people of Prabhas, Rana, and Varun Tej in terms of height. Currently, he stands at 6 feet 4 inches. Akira’s education took place in Hyderabad. He studied at the Oakridge International School. Akira is very fond of playing cricket. Interestingly, Akira’s favorite actor is not Power Star Pawan Kalyan but the young hero Adivi Sesh. This was revealed by Akira's mother, Renu Desai, some time ago. Among the young heroes in the industry, Akira has a best friend — none other than Adivi Sesh. This was shared by Adivi Sesh during the promotions of the movie 'Major'. Despite the age gap, they are good friends and meet often. Akira is known for his gentle nature. Those close to him say he doesn’t show any airs of being the son of a star hero and a deputy CM. Currently, Akira is not living with the Mega family or his mother Renu Desai.

    Mega Multi Starrer Movie: Chiru, Pawan, Charan Combo in a Multistarrer... Director Harish Shankar's Big Plan!
    The 'Mega Family' in Tollywood, known for its substantial fan base, has launched many stars under megastar Chiranjeevi. Present-day industry luminaries like Pawan Kalyan, Ram Charan, and Allu Arjun are all members of this illustrious family. Films from the Mega Family consistently create a buzz in Tollywood. Just imagine the excitement if Chiru, Pawan, and Charan starred together in a multistarrer! The prospect is thrilling and may soon become a reality, as director Harish Shankar is actively working towards this collaboration. Let's explore more about these developments. 'The Ultimate Pan-India Release'... Among the directors close to the Mega Family, Harish Shankar is notable. He has openly declared himself a fan of Pawan Kalyan. During the promotion of his film 'Mr. Bachchan', Harish Shankar made some significant comments in response to why he hasn't yet made a Pan-India film. He stated, "You can’t just write a story for the sake of calling it Pan-India. 'Pushpa' wasn’t made as a Pan-India film; neither was 'Kantara'. They told local stories that the Pan-India audience accepted. It should happen organically. I have been working on a line for Kalyan garu, Ram Charan, and Chiranjeevi. If made, it will be the true Pan-India film." Currently, these remarks have become the talk of Tollywood. Mega fans are eagerly posting their hopes for this film to hit the sets soon. https://twitter.com/i/status/1817891248398795055 'Past Special Cameos'... Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan have already appeared together in the movie 'Acharya', where Charan had a special cameo. Previously, Chiranjeevi made brief appearances in 'Bruce Lee' and 'Magadheera' to support his son. Similarly, Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan have acted together in two films. Pawan Kalyan shined in a special song in 'Shankar Dada MBBS' and also shared the screen with Chiru in the climax of 'Shankar Dada Zindabad'. However, Chiru, Pawan, and Charan have never appeared together in full-length roles except in cameos. Fans have been eagerly waiting for a full-fledged Mega multi starrer film. 'Connection with the Mega Family' Director Harish Shankar shares a strong bond with the Mega Family. Known among fans as a director who truly understands the pulse of the Mega audience, Harish has worked with four Mega heroes. He directed 'Gabbar Singh' with Power Star Pawan Kalyan, 'Duvvada Jagannadham' with Allu Arjun, 'Gaddalakonda Ganesh' with Varun Tej, and 'Subrahmanyam For Sale' with Sai Dharam Tej. His portrayal of the Mega heroes in these films has greatly pleased the fans, leading to high expectations for his direction in a multistarrer. Netizens are posting that if such a project materializes, it will undoubtedly break box office records and they are hoping it starts shooting soon. 'Reminiscent of Ustaad Bhagat Singh'  It is known that Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar are working on 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'. The filming of this movie faced interruptions due to Pawan Kalyan's busy political schedule in Andhra Pradesh, leading Harish Shankar to work on 'Mr. Bachchan' with Ravi Teja in the meantime. At a recent press meet, Harish Shankar made key remarks about 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh', expressing anticipation for Pawan Kalyan's availability to complete the film. He assured that this film would be memorable for fans for many years and fully deliver on the expectations audiences have from a Pawan Kalyan movie. Fans are confident they will want to watch this film over and over again.

    Citadel Star Samantha's Changed Appearance: Plastic Surgery or Myositis Treatment Effects?
    Tollywood star heroine Samantha is soon to be seen in the upcoming spy action series "Citadel: Honey Bunny." In this series, while Varun Dhawan plays a leading role, Samantha is acting in another key role. The series, directed by Raj and DK who have delivered successful series like "The Family Man" and "Farzi," is the official remake of the Hollywood blockbuster "Citadel" which starred Priyanka Chopra in the lead role. Currently, the actors involved in this series are busy with promotions. The makers have officially announced that this web series will start streaming on Amazon Prime Video on November 7. The recently released trailer of "Citadel: Honey Bunny" thrilled the audience with its action-packed content, especially the action scenes performed by Samantha. The first trailer had already set high expectations for the series, and now the second trailer has also received super hit talk. Samantha's action sequences in the trailer have particularly captivated the audience, with some fans even praising her performance as being better than Priyanka Chopra's version in the original. In this series, fans are excited about Samantha as "Honey" and Varun Dhawan as "Bunny," noting Samantha's refreshing appearance and gripping action. Compared to her previous action roles, Samantha appears stronger and more powerful in this series. However, recent discussions among netizens are focused on Samantha's appearance in the trailer. They are commenting on the changes in her face, comparing her current looks with those of actress Samyuktha Menon. Some photos shared on social media show noticeable differences in her eyes compared to the past. Some people argue that Samantha has undergone plastic surgery to enhance her beauty, especially after battling the disease myositis, which caused significant changes to her face. Others suggest that the powerful medications she used to treat myositis have had side effects that altered her facial appearance. It is well known that Samantha struggled with myositis, a rare disease, for over a year, which also led her into severe depression. During her recovery, she traveled domestically and internationally with friends to find some relief from her pain. Observing the physical changes caused by myositis, Samantha decided to focus entirely on her health and stayed away from films for a year. She made a comeback with the film "Kushi" alongside Vijay Deverakonda and also starred in "Shaakuntalam." However, as both films did not perform well at the box office, Samantha is now pinning her hopes on the success of the "Citadel" series.

    Dhoom Dhaam Review: Does the Family Drama and Comedy Deliver Enough Punch?
    Dhoom Dhaam Review: Does the Family Drama and Comedy Deliver Enough Punch?
    Cast: Chetan Krishna, Chetan Maddineni, Vennela Kishore, Sai Kumar, Vinay Varma, Praveen, Naveen Neni, Goparaju Ramana, and others. Director: Sai Kishore Macha Music: Gopi Sundar Cinematography: Siddharth Ramaswamy Producer: M.S. Ram Kumar Release Date: November 8, 2024 The latest film ‘Dhoom Dhaam,’ starring Chetan Maddineni and Hebah Patel, directed by Sai Kishore Macha, also features Sai Kumar, Vennela Kishore, Prithviraj, and Goparaju Ramana in key roles. Produced by M.S. Ram Kumar under the Friday Frameworks banner, the film finally arrived in theaters on November 8. Has it impressed the Telugu audience? Let’s dive into the review. What's the Story Karthik (Chetan Maddineni) shares a deep bond with his father, Ramaraju (Sai Kumar), with both father and son supporting and caring for each other. One day, Karthik falls in love with Suhana (Hebah Patel) at first sight, though she initially doesn’t reciprocate. Frustrated, Karthik heads to Poland, where Suhana follows him, eventually winning his love. Meanwhile, Karthik has a long-standing feud with Suhana’s uncle (Ramaraju) and her father’s brother (Benarjee), who want to kill him. What’s behind this enmity? How does Karthik resolve these issues? Do Karthik and Suhana unite in the end? To find out, you’ll need to watch the movie. Performance  Chetan Krishna, as Karthik, delivers a decent performance, showing growth in his acting, though he could have worked more on expressions, especially in key scenes. Hebah Patel impresses as Suhana, returning to a commercial role and scoring well with both her charm and acting. Their chemistry works well on screen. Vennela Kishore, in the role of Karthik’s cousin, steals the show with his comedy, which is a major strength of the film. Sai Kumar, Goparaju Ramana, Shivannarayana, Benarjee, Sai Srinivas, Praveen, and Giridhar all perform within their roles effectively. Direction Director Sai Kishore Macha has chosen a straightforward storyline. However, his effort to deliver a good romantic and family entertainer is commendable. Even with a love track, he avoids vulgarity, carefully presenting the bond between father and son, father and daughter, and other family relationships. The first half focuses on the love story, minor conflicts, and misunderstandings, which feel a bit routine, with Praveen’s comedic relief standing out. The interval twist brings intrigue into the second half, where the backstory of the heroine’s family unfolds, giving the film more depth. Vennela Kishore shoulders most of the second half with his comedy. However, slow narration, underutilized casting, and a few unclear expressions from the hero act as drawbacks. Technical Aspects On the technical front, Gopi Sundar’s music is a big asset. The songs are enjoyable, and the background score adds a fresh feel. Siddharth Ramaswamy’s cinematography is impressive, with vibrant visuals. The editor could have tightened the runtime further. The production values are outstanding, with no expense spared by the producers. Plus Points - Vennela Kishore’s comedy - Family emotions - Music Minus Points - Routine story - Regular love track - Slow narration Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 2.5/5

    Celebrating #HBD Prabhas: 10 Lesser-Known Facts About the Baahubali Star on His Birthday!
    Pan-India star Prabhas has won millions of fans with his acting and his kindness. Particularly recognized for his role in 'Baahubali,' he brought Telugu cinema to a global stage. It can be said that the records created by Prabhas as a movie hero are unparalleled. Today (October 23) is Prabhas' birthday. As he steps into his 45th year, here are some intriguing details about his personal and film career for you. Average in Studies Prabhas was an average student academically. He wasn't the type to sit in class for long periods and looked forward to the drill period eagerly. He was known for skipping classes to play games. Forgetful Prabhas is somewhat forgetful. He shared in an interview that his friends used to call him 'Ghajini' since his school days. He recounted how he often forgot his pen during exams and would leave his book in one place and forget where it was. He has admitted that he has improved a bit since his childhood. 'You, a Hero?' At the beginning of his career, when Prabhas told a friend that he wanted to become a film hero, his friend laughed and said, 'You, a hero?' When he shared this with his family, they were initially shocked but later sent him to Satyanand in Visakhapatnam for training. After three months of training, he received the offer for 'Eeswar.' The Reason Behind the Darling Call Prabhas frequently uses the word 'Darling' to address his friends and close ones. He explained that he feels uncomfortable calling someone brother or 'anna,' which is why he prefers calling them 'Darling.' Noticing this, director Puri Jagannadh popularized this nickname through the film 'Bujjigadu,' and it became even more popular with the movie 'Darling.' Guest Roles The Rebel Star Prabhas appeared in a guest role in the Hindi movie 'Action Jackson' (2014) directed by dance master Prabhu Deva starring Ajay Devgn. In the song 'Punjabi Mast,' he danced alongside Sonakshi Sinha. Decades later, he is set to appear in a guest role in the movie 'Kannappa' and gave a voice-over for the movie 'Denikaina Ready.' Two Films with His Uncle The late actor Krishnam Raju was Prabhas’ uncle, and Prabhas entered the industry as his heir. Prabhas deeply admired his uncle and acted with him in films like 'Billa' and 'Rebel.' Prabhas often shares that these two films provided him with many sweet memories. Thrice With Each In his career, Prabhas has acted in the most films with two heroines, Trisha and Anushka, sharing the screen three times each. He starred with Trisha in 'Bujjigadu,' 'Varsham,' and 'Pournami.' With Anushka, he acted in 'Billa,' 'Mirchi,' and 'Baahubali.' The First South Indian Hero Prabhas was the first South Indian hero to have a wax statue at the prestigious Madame Tussauds in the 'Baahubali' getup. Following him, Tollywood stars Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, and recently Ram Charan have achieved this honor. If Not an Actor... Prabhas once expressed that working with the famous Bollywood director Rajkumar Hirani would be a dream come true. If he had not been an actor, he mentioned that he would have settled in the hotel business.
