      Tragedy Strikes 'Kanguva': Editor Nishad Yusuf's Mysterious Death Shocks Team as Suriya's Epic Nears Release
      Tragedy Strikes 'Kanguva': Editor Nishad Yusuf's Mysterious Death Shocks Team as Suriya's Epic Nears Release
      The upcoming major pan-Indian film from the Tamil film industry, "Kanguva," has garnered immense interest among viewers. Suriya stars in a leading role in this film, which is currently being promoted in all languages, with a special focus on Telugu and Tamil through various events to attract more attention. Amid these promotional activities, the film crew received distressing news. The editor of the film, Nishad Yusuf, died under suspicious circumstances, which has deeply disturbed the team. He was found dead in his apartment in Kochi, causing a stir in the cinema community. Nishad, who was actively involved in the editing of the film, died suddenly at 2 AM, confirmed by the police. His body was found lifeless in his apartment in Panampilly Nagar, Kochi. With various suspicions arising, the police have registered a case and are conducting an investigation. They are interrogating residents of the apartment as well as Nishad's close friends and are looking into disputes among family members. However, his relatives insist that he had no troubles that would lead him to take his own life. The police are urged to conduct a thorough investigation. Nishad's death has plunged the Tamil and Malayalam film industries into mourning, with many industry leaders coming to pay their last respects. Nishad Yusuf had worked on several intriguing films in Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam languages, including "Audios Amigos," "Unda," "One," "Petarap," and "Saudi Vellakka," contributing significantly through his editing work. His sudden demise is a significant loss to the film industry. His last project, the massive pan-Indian film "Kanguva," is set to release on November 14. This tragic event has hit the film unit hard, just 15 days before the movie's release. The team of "Kanguva" has expressed their shock over Nishad Yusuf's death. The hero, Suriya, stated that the news deeply upset him and he prayed for peace for Nishad's soul. Meanwhile, promotions for the "Kanguva" movie are progressing rapidly in both Tamil and Telugu. Suriya himself is busy with press meets in Telugu. On Sunday, he visited the Bigg Boss house and interacted with the contestants along with Nagarjuna. Suriya has also started promotions in the Hindi belt. Alongside heroine Disha Patani and Bobby Deol, who plays the villain in the film, he is actively participating in the promotional activities. The film is scheduled for a global theatrical release on November 14. The makers of "Kanguva" aim to release the film simultaneously in eight languages. Producer KA Gnanavel shared that while Suriya has dubbed for the Tamil version, AI-assisted dubbing is being used for other languages. This marks the first time AI is being utilized in Kollywood for dubbing purposes. The recent release "Vettaiyan" employed AI to alter Amitabh Bachchan’s voice, and now the complete dubbing for "Kanguva" is being done using AI, indicating a successful experiment, as believed by the producer. The film will be released in all major Indian languages as well as in English, French, and Spanish, with release dates for Chinese and Japanese to be announced soon. With a target of Rs. 1000 crore in collections, "Kanguva" is set for a grand release, as recently stated by producer Gnanavel. The stories for parts 2 and 3 are also ready, and if the first part is successful, plans to produce these sequels will proceed. The producer has expressed confidence that this film will elevate Suriya to a new level, with a strong emphasis on action and emotions in the movie, which is currently being shot at a brisk pace. Disha Patani stars opposite Suriya, and Bobby Deol, famous for "Animal," plays the villain. Suriya will appear as a warrior named Kanga in the film.

Sreekar Art Director: Aravind Mule Producer: Manasa Dasari OTT Platform: ETV Win Recently, OTT platforms have been home to many unique stories, with ETV Win bringing a different movie every week to entertain its audience. This week, the suspense thriller 'Tatva' was released directly on OTT. Featuring Hima Dasari and Pooja Reddy Bora as leads, directed by Ruthvik Yalagiri, this hour-long film has hit the screens, but did it win over the OTT audience? Let’s find out in this review. What’s the story? Arif (Hima Dasari) is a regular taxi driver who suddenly finds himself in need of money. In this quest, businessman Thomas (Osman Ghani) rides in Arif’s taxi. Realizing Thomas has the money he needs, Arif plans to get it by any means necessary. Unexpectedly, Thomas is murdered during their interaction, and Arif gets entangled in the case. Police officer Jyotsna (Pooja Reddy Bora) steps in to investigate. Who killed Thomas? How is Arif involved? What is the relationship between Thomas and Arif? Is Arif innocent? The answers unfold only through watching the movie. How did they perform? Although Hima Dasari is the main hero, it’s Osman Ghani who steals the show as Thomas. His portrayal adds depth to the character, making even a smile resonate with underlying intentions. Hima Dasari also captivates as Arif, bringing to life the struggles of a young man. Pooja Reddy landed a significant role, which seems straightforward at first but takes a surprising turn at the climax, pivotal in twisting the story. The film primarily revolves around these three characters, with other actors performing well within their roles. How’s the direction? Having worked as an assistant director for movies like 'Run Raja Run' and 'Saaho,' Ruthvik brings a unique style to this thrilling cinema. The film, which explains the fading humanity within individuals, starts grippingly, especially the first 20 minutes. Ruthvik aims to deliver his points without confusion, wrapping up the film in just 58 minutes, a definite plus. However, some scenes stray from logic and feel incomplete, which could have been refined for better impact. Those expecting commercial elements like songs, fights, romance, or love tracks might find it less appealing. Overall, Ruthvik’s directorial effort is commendable. Technically speaking, The cinematography is notable, especially considering most of the film takes place at night, delivering good visuals even in low light. The background music also strengthens the film's atmosphere. Editing is decent, and production values are high. Technically, 'Tatva' scores well. Plus points: - Characters of Arif and Thomas - Camera work - Background music Minus points: - Lack of commercial elements - Some incomplete climax scenes Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 2.5/5

      Janaka Aithe Ganaka Review: Middle-Class Hero Takes On Condom Company – Did He Win?
      Janaka Aithe Ganaka Review: Middle-Class Hero Takes On Condom Company – Did He Win?
      Cast: Suhas, Sankirthana Vipin, Murali Sharma, Rajendra Prasad, Vennela Kishore, Goparaju Ramana, Acharya Srikant, and othersWriter, Director: Sandeep Reddy BandlaMusic: Vijay BulganinCinematography: Sai SriramProducers: Dil Raju, Hanshitha Reddy, Harshith ReddyRelease Date: October 12, 2024 Young hero Suhas is on a roll, releasing films back-to-back and delivering good hits with unique stories. His latest film 'Janaka Aithe Ganaka' falls in line with this streak. Sankirthana plays the heroine. The film is produced by Dil Raju Productions and directed by Sandeep Bandla. It was released on October 12, 2024, with premieres held two days earlier. So, how is this movie? Has Suhas delivered another hit? Let's find out in this review. Plot Prasad (Suhas) is a middle-class man who, due to financial limitations, feels he can't provide "the best" for his children, so he decides not to have kids for the first two years of his marriage. His wife (Sankirthana Vipin) agrees with his decision, and his father (Goparaju Ramana) remains silent on the matter. However, unexpectedly, Prasad's wife becomes pregnant. Convinced that the condom failed, Prasad decides to sue the company. How does the case proceed? What changes occur in Prasad's life? Does he win the case? To find out, you have to watch the movie. Performance Analysis Suhas shines once again in his role as a middle-class hero. He convincingly portrays a man who insists on not having children but ends up becoming a father. Sankirthana delivers an excellent performance as Prasad's wife, playing the obedient and supportive homemaker. Rajendra Prasad, Murali Sharma, and Vennela Kishore all do justice to their roles, making for an impressive cast. Direction Director Sandeep Reddy Bandla scored full marks for the storyline. He presents a fresh take, distinct from routine films. He paints a vivid picture of the life of a middle-class man, his struggles after marriage, and all the expenses involved. The scenes related to pregnancy are touching and connect well with couples who might have avoided having children. The court scenes are humorously portrayed, adding light-hearted moments to the narrative. While some court scenes and the logic around child expenses lack coherence, the humor compensates for these gaps. However, the predictable storyline and lack of significant twists are the negatives. Technical Aspects In terms of technical aspects, the cinematography is well done. The background score is a major plus for the film, although the songs aren't particularly memorable. Editing is just okay, while the production values are top-notch, with no compromises from the producers.

      Mr. Bachchan Vs Double Ismart: Who's the Winner in Day 1 Collections?
      On August 15, marking Independence Day, blockbuster films hit the screens. 'Double Ismart' by the Ram-Puri combo and 'Mr. Bachchan' by the Ravi Teja-Harish Shankar team greeted the audiences. Alongside them, Tamil star Vikram's 'Thangalan' and NTR's brother-in-law Narne Nithiin's 'Aay' also made their presence felt in theaters. While the films starring Ravi Teja and Ram received mixed responses, Vikram's and Narne Nithiin's movies garnered positive talk. But which film took the lead in day one collections? Which movie raked in the highest earnings? Let’s find out in this report. Double Ismart's Collections! 'Double Ismart,' directed by Puri Jagannadh and starring Ram Pothineni, garnered a divided response but still managed to pull in impressive numbers. The film reportedly earned Rs. 12.45 crores (GROSS) worldwide on its opening day, as officially announced by the makers. They even released a special poster to mark the occasion. In the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana alone, the film collected over Rs. 8.35 crores, as reported by trade circles, with an additional Rs. 4 crores coming from the rest of India and overseas. With the long weekend, there’s potential for further increase in its collections. Mr. Bachchan’s Scenario! 'Mr. Bachchan,' the third collaboration between Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja and creative director Harish Shankar, carried high expectations until its release on Thursday, August 15, but received mixed reviews. Nevertheless, it managed to gross Rs. 5.3 crores worldwide on its first day, with Rs. 1.8 crores coming from the premiere shows held on August 14, as stated by trade sources. The film faced significant trolling right from the first show, which reportedly affected its collections. However, given the long weekend, recovery isn’t ruled out. Bhagyashri Borse starred alongside Ravi Teja, marking her debut in the Telugu film industry with this movie. Thangalaan Tops! 'Thangalaan,' starring Tamil star hero Vikram, topped the release day earnings among all the films, collecting a massive Rs. 26.44 crores (GROSS) worldwide, as officially declared by the producers. The film has been especially well-received even without a North Indian release yet, drawing universal acclaim. It is set to release in the North on the 30th of this month. 'Thangalaan,' performing well in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, is expected to achieve significant box office numbers by the end of this weekend, with Vikram's performance being widely praised. Aay's Good Collections! 'Aay,' the second film by NTR’s brother-in-law Narne Nithiin following the success of 'Mad,' captivated audiences again with its village backdrop love entertainer. The film brought in positive talk on its first day, with trade circles estimating that it grossed Rs. 2 crores. Made on a budget of Rs. 8 crores, the film’s appealing opening day collections have left the film unit in high spirits, anticipating profits by the end of the weekend.

      Devara: A Gripping Tale with High Expectations, But Will Its Runtime Test Audiences?
      Devara: A Gripping Tale with High Expectations, But Will Its Runtime Test Audiences?
      The film 'Devara: Part 1,' starring Jr NTR, is garnering nationwide expectations. Directed by Koratala Siva, this film is set to hit the screens in exactly 23 days, greeting global audiences on September 27. Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor stars alongside Tarak, with Hindi cinema stalwarts Saif Ali Khan and Bobby Deol playing villainous roles, generating significant buzz for the film. Amidst this, recent news about the runtime of 'Devara' is circulating online, causing concern among Tarak's fans. What is the runtime? In the works under the combination of Tarak and Koratala, 'Devara' is currently in the midst of post-production. Reports suggest that the film's runtime has been finalized. The industry is abuzz that the Devara team has locked a runtime of 3 hours and 10 minutes. Fans are expressing concern, fearing that such a lengthy duration might be cumbersome. Most films exceeding 3 hours have struggled to engage audiences. However, it's too soon to declare this as Devara's final runtime since the movie still has to undergo censorship review. There's a possibility that the duration might reduce if the censor board decides to make cuts. Will Koratala's magic work? Regardless of the cuts made by the censor board, analysts believe that Devara’s runtime is unlikely to be less than 3 hours. The success of the film is expected to hinge on Koratala's screenplay. Considering his past directorial ventures like 'Mirchi', 'Bharat Ane Nenu', 'Janatha Garage', and 'Srimanthudu', Koratala's direction prowess is well recognized. He has successfully turned simple storylines into gripping dramas with engaging screenplays. If he repeats this magic in 'Devara', it could be a delight for the fans. The recently released 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' also had a runtime of nearly 3 hours, yet managed to impress with its excellent action drama and the direction skills of Vivek Athreya, combined with the outstanding performances of Nani and S.J. Suryah. Films Affected by Long Durations! Recent releases like 'Bharateeyudu 2', 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', and 'Ante Sundaraniki' arrived with lengthy runtimes and received a lukewarm response. Despite 'Bharateeyudu 2' being set aside, the other two films had good content but failed to captivate the audience. In 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', although Ravi Teja delivered a commendable performance, the extended duration resulted in a dragging sensation among the audience. 'Ante Sundaraniki' faced similar criticism despite its unique concept of challenges faced by a couple from different faiths. The excessive length was perceived as making the movie feel like a serial. New Poster Release Today marks the release of the third song from the film Devara. Having already released the first single, 'Fire Song', and the second single, 'Chuttamalle', both songs are trending on YouTube. However, the makers have announced that a third single titled 'Daavudi' will be released this evening at 5:04 PM. In line with this, a special poster featuring Tarak and Janhvi Kapoor in a romantic pose has also been released, captivating the audience. https://twitter.com/DevaraMovie/status/1831219654229913706 Is this the story of 'Devara'? It is reported that the plot of 'Devara' is based on real-life incidents as penned by director Koratala Siva. According to the latest buzz, the film portrays a brutal massacre of Dalits, drawing from events that once shook united Andhra Pradesh. It is said to depict the tragic incident of Karamchedu, where many Dalits fell victim to upper caste violence in 1985. Reliable sources confirm that Koratala Siva has planned to showcase this real-life incident in 'Devara,' significantly heightening expectations for the film. Currently, there is no official clarification from the film unit regarding the ongoing speculation on social media.

      Devara Box Office Rampage: Jr NTR’s Latest Film Nears ₹500 Crore Mark in Just 10 Days!
      The recent film featuring Jr NTR and directed by Koratala Siva, 'Devara: Part 1,' released worldwide on September 27, has secured a solid victory at the box office. Despite mixed initial reviews, the film showed remarkable strength in its collections, setting records from the very first day. Having completed 10 days since its release, the producers have officially announced the collections, and the figures have left everyone astounded, commenting on the unrelenting rampage of Devara. [toc] Approaching ₹500 Crore... In 'Devara,' Tarak was paired with Janhvi Kapoor, and Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan played the villain. In terms of collections, the film has grossed ₹466 crore worldwide within these 10 days. The makers have released a special poster to announce this achievement. With blockbuster collections, the movie continues to perform well in theaters. In the Telugu states alone, the film grossed ₹193.55 crore, with Karnataka contributing ₹16.40 crore, Tamil Nadu ₹4 crore, Kerala ₹92 lakhs, and the rest of India, including Hindi regions, adding ₹29.80 crore. If this momentum continues, Devara is likely to hit the ₹500 crore mark over this weekend. First Day and Weekend Collections The Devara movie, starring NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, grossed over ₹172 crore on its opening day. It collected approximately ₹83.71 crore in the two Telugu states alone, making it the second film to achieve such high collections after 'RRR'. By the end of the first weekend, Devara had already reached the ₹300 crore mark, with a total of ₹304 crore grossed in just three days. Although collections gradually decreased thereafter, the film still managed to turn profitable for the distributors. With no major releases last week, Devara faced no significant competition this weekend, likely easing its path to the ₹500 crore mark. Profits from Sunday By the end of the second Saturday (September 5) shows, Devara had crossed the break-even point in almost all areas. From Sunday onwards, all collections are profits. The Dussehra holidays and the lack of other major releases provide a big advantage for Devara. The film's collections are also stable overseas. According to trade circles, Devara has started making profits in many regions including Kerala, Karnataka, Hindi-speaking areas, and the rest of India.

      Sandeep Reddy Vanga Backs Ananya After Reporter's Shocking Question
      Sandeep Reddy Vanga Backs Ananya After Reporter's Shocking Question
      Telugu actress Ananya Nagalla stars in the latest movie "Pottel," set to release across the two Telugu states on October 25th. Amidst ongoing promotions, Ananya has been quite busy. Recently, after the trailer launch, a press meet was held where Ananya had a bitter experience. A question raised by a journalist about commitments in the industry turned into a hot topic both in Tollywood and on social media. Ananya addressed this issue again and thanked pan-India director Sandeep Reddy Vanga for standing by their team. Praises for Sandeep by Ananya The movie "Pottel," which stars Yuvachandra Krishna and Ananya Nagalla and is directed by Sahith Mothkuri, is set to hit the screens in three days. A pre-release event was recently held by the makers, where Sandeep Reddy Vanga, known for directing films like "Arjun Reddy," "Kabir Singh," and "Animal," attended as the chief guest. Ananya spoke at the event, expressing gratitude for his presence at the promotions of "Pottel," not once but twice, and praised him for his support in elevating a small film to a bigger stage. https://twitter.com/i/status/1848603026728358266 After "Rangasthalam," "Pottel" Is It: Sandeep Reddy Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, as the chief guest, spoke about the film. He mentioned that director Sahith one day told him about the small story he was filming. Upon hearing it, Sandeep felt it wasn't just a small story but a significant one. He had already seen the movie and liked it a lot, saying it was more than he had imagined and that the audience would definitely enjoy it. He praised it as the first full-scale village backdrop film he had seen since "Rangasthalam" and urged everyone to support small films. https://twitter.com/i/status/1848595831508652364 Decency in Questions: Ananya At the "Pottel" pre-release event, Ananya Nagalla made some more intriguing comments. She revisited the journalist's question about commitment, mocking its appropriateness. "After going home, I thought about how one could ask such a direct question on a sensitive topic. It made me realize, if one had decency, such questions wouldn't be asked. My dream has always been to earn recognition as an actress, which I have been fighting for at home for five years. After seeing 'Pottel,' everyone at my home will feel proud. The question on commitment spoiled the joy. Now everyone will think I succeeded because I committed, but it’s not true. Just because actresses wear makeup and smile doesn't mean they don't have a heart or a family. Please respect us," Ananya requested. What Really Happened? The trailer launch event for the movie "Pottel" recently took place in Hyderabad, with prominent actress Samyuktha Menon releasing the trailer. During the subsequent press meet, a female reporter questioned Ananya Nagalla about the casting couch, asking, "Before giving a movie chance to an actress or artist, do you ask for commitments? Have you ever faced this?" Ananya responded, "How can you be so sure that commitments are asked? There's nothing like that." The reporter continued, "But your industry friends said commitments are part of the signing agreements." Ananya clarified, "That's 100% wrong. I have never faced such a situation. It doesn't exist." https://twitter.com/tfpcin/status/1847262295266865248 Producer of "Mallesham" Fires at Reporter Netizens criticized the manner in which the female reporter questioned Ananya Nagalla, and as the video went viral, "Mallesham" producer Venkat Siddareddy also responded. He posted a lengthy post on X, criticizing the reporter's inappropriate question during a movie promotion. He mentioned the precautions taken for Ananya's safety during the shooting of "Mallesham" and condemned the harsh nature of the reporter's question, praising Ananya for her fitting response. Ananya thanked Venkat Siddareddy for his support in this matter. https://twitter.com/AnanyaNagalla/status/1847503625607680498

      Weekend Collections: Heading Toward Disaster for ‘Mr. Bachchan’ and ‘Double Ismart’... NTR's Brother-in-Law Dominates 4-Day Collections!
      Weekend Collections: Heading Toward Disaster for ‘Mr. Bachchan’ and ‘Double Ismart’... NTR's Brother-in-Law Dominates 4-Day Collections!
      To coincide with Independence Day, several big films hit the screens on August 15. The movies 'Double Ismart' featuring Ram and directed by Puri Jagannadh, and 'Mr. Bachchan' starring Ravi Teja and directed by Harish Shankar were among the releases. Additionally, the Tamil star Vikram's 'Thangalaan' and NTR's brother-in-law's film 'Aay' also premiered on the same day. Prior to their release, the films of Ravi Teja and Ram generated massive hype. However, post-release, they failed to meet expectations and disappointed in terms of collections. On the other hand, 'Thangalaan' and 'Aay' received positive reviews and are doing well at the box office. Let's take a look at the 4-day collections of these four films and see which one is leading the pack. Disastrous Collections for Mr. Bachchan! Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja, paired with actress Bhaghyashri Borse, starred in the latest film ‘Mr. Bachchan,’ directed by Harish Shankar. This action entertainer, released on August 15, failed to impress the audience as expected, resulting in dismal first-day collections. It grossed only ₹5.3 crores worldwide. The second day brought in ₹1.75 crores, and the third day saw similar figures. By the fourth day, the movie's collections had dropped from crores to lakhs, grossing only ₹65 lakhs worldwide. As a result, ‘Mr. Bachchan’ managed to collect just ₹7.50 crores in its first four days. Double Ismart Collections Headed for Disaster! The second film from the energetic star Ram Pothineni and director Puri Jagannadh combo, 'Double Ismart,' is the sequel to their previous blockbuster 'Ismart Shankar.' The film, which features Kavya Thapar as the lead actress, opened to decent figures, grossing ₹12.45 crores worldwide on its first day. However, negative talk quickly spread, leading to a drop in collections. The second day saw the film gross just ₹2.25 crores worldwide. Over the next two days, it managed to bring in ₹1.5 crores and ₹1.9 crores respectively. In total, 'Double Ismart' collected ₹16 crores in its first four days. Thangalaan's 4-Day Collections South Indian star Vikram's 'Thangalaan,' directed by Pa. Ranjith, also released on August 15. The film, produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja, received positive word-of-mouth on its first day, grossing ₹26.44 crores worldwide. Over the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, it continued to perform solidly, bringing its total four-day worldwide gross to ₹65 crores. The fact that it achieved this level of success without even releasing in the North has garnered widespread praise. 'Thangalaan' is set to release in the North on August 30. With positive talk in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, the film is expected to continue its strong box office performance this week. ‘Aay’ Moves Into Profits! NTR’s brother-in-law Narnne Nithiin starred in the latest film 'Aay,' which was released on August 15. Despite competing with big films, ‘Aay’ stood its ground and garnered positive talk. The film has been performing well at the box office. On its first day, it grossed ₹2 crores and maintained that momentum on the second day. Trade sources reported that the film earned ₹1.20 crores on the third day and increased to ₹1.46 crores on the fourth day. With total collections of ₹7.20 crores in its first four days, 'Aay' became the first Independence Day release to enter profit territory. From here on, all earnings are expected to be pure profit, according to trade experts.
