      'Kantara' Star Rishab Shetty Beats Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan to Become Lord Hanuman in 'HanuMan' Sequel?
      'Kantara' Star Rishab Shetty Beats Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan to Become Lord Hanuman in 'HanuMan' Sequel?
      Tollywood star director Prasanth Varma's highly anticipated film "Jai Hanuman" has just shared an exciting update. After much speculation about who would play Hanuman, the filmmakers have finally revealed that Kannada star hero Rishab Shetty will portray the role. The first look poster featuring Rishab Shetty as a powerful Hanuman holding a statue of Lord Rama has ignited immense interest among fans. The previous film "Hanuman" by young hero Teja Sajja and director Prasanth Varma shook the entire nation. Released pan-India in languages including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi, it became a blockbuster hit. This film, a festive release for Sankranti, outperformed major films and set new box office records, leading to high expectations for its sequel "Jai Hanuman." This has intensified the efforts to cast a notable actor for Hanuman's role in the sequel, keeping the audience in suspense. Initially, there were rumors that either Chiranjeevi or Ram Charan might play Hanuman, especially after the director hinted at the sequel's direction in the ending of "Hanuman." Reports were that Prasanth Varma had discussions with Yash of KGF fame, but due to his busy schedule with "Toxic" shooting, that combination did not materialize. However, last month Prasanth Varma met with Rishab Shetty and shared the story, sparking his interest in the project. This led to the official announcement of Rishab Shetty taking on the role, further raising expectations. Mythri Movie Makers are producing this big-budget film, and regular shooting will start soon. Why Was Rishab Shetty Chosen? Rishab Shetty, as a hero and director of the Kannada film "Kantara," demonstrated his capability on a national level, creating a box office tsunami. Before "Kantara," Rishab Shetty was primarily known in the Kannada industry, but now he's recognized nationwide and even received a national award for best actor. He is currently working on "Kantara Chapter 1," a prequel, in collaboration with a renowned Hollywood VFX company that has worked on successful films like "The Chronicles of Narnia," "The Lion King," and "Batman." This collaboration is expected to bring a new energy to "Jai Hanuman," aligning well with his rising popularity and the pan-India goals of the film. New Project "Maha Kali" On another note, director Prasanth Varma's "Prasanth Varma Cinematic Universe" (PVCU) has just announced its third project, titled "Maha Kali" (MAHAKALI). The first look poster released by the makers indicates that this film will be the first female superhero movie in the Indian cinema landscape, directed by Pooja Aparna Kolluru. Produced under the RKD Studios banner by Riwaz Ramesh Duggal, this project adds new strength to our universe. Prasanth Varma’s post hints that Kali Devi will incarnate to battle formidable evil, promising to redefine what superheroes can be. https://twitter.com/PrasanthVarma/status/1844236760215392423

      Tollywood 2024: Blockbusters and Budget Surprises, From 'Kalki 2898 AD' to 'HanuMan' 
      The year 2024 has been extremely fruitful for Tollywood. This year's highest-grossing film was Prabhas's 'Kalki 2898 AD.' Released as a festive treat for Sankranti, the movie 'Hanuman' also showcased its strength at the national box office with impressive collections. However, these two films were made with massive budgets. In contrast, lower-budget films like 'Tillu Square,' 'Committee Kurrollu,' and 'Aay' also stood on par in terms of collections with those two films, achieving nearly triple the return on investment. These films have been noted for the significant difference between their budget and collections, ranking among the top 5 Telugu films. Let's examine these details in this special report. Committee Kurrollu Niharika Konidela's debut production, 'Committee Kurrollu,' featured eleven new heroes and was released on August 10, garnering positive reviews. It raked in Rs. 17.60 crores worldwide on a budget of just Rs. 6 crores. The film achieved three times the return relative to its budget, earning accolades from critics. 'Committee Kurrollu' is currently streaming on ETV Win, where it continues to receive a favorable response from OTT platforms. Aay The recent film 'Aay,' starring Narne Nithiin and Nayan Sarika, directed by Anji K. Maniputra, was released on August 15 and captured a hit status. It outperformed star-studded films like 'Mr. Bachchan' and 'Double iSmart' in collections, amassing a total of Rs. 14.10 crores. The production costs were reported to be between Rs. 6-8 crores. Including OTT rights, 'Aay' managed to earn nearly three times its expenses. Kalki 2898 AD Directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Rebel Star Prabhas, 'Kalki 2898 AD' has shaken the Indian box office, grossing over Rs. 1200-1300 crores worldwide. Made in a mythological and futuristic genre, the film was produced with an approximate budget of Rs. 600 crores but earned more than double its cost, receiving widespread acclaim. Pan India star Prabhas once again proved his mettle at the box office. The film also featured stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Deepika Padukone, with special cameos by Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, S.S. Rajamouli, and Ram Gopal Varma. Tillu Square Starring Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Anupama Parameswaran, 'Tillu Square' released in March this year and made a splash at the box office, collecting over Rs. 135 crores globally. Produced by prominent producer Nagadevara Suryavanshi with a budget of around Rs. 40 crores, the film achieved more than three times its budget. This movie marked Siddhu Jonnalagadda's first entry into the Rs. 100 crore club. HanuMan Directed by talented filmmaker Prasanth Varma and starring Teja Sajja, 'HanuMan' captured nationwide attention. Released as a Sankranti gift this year, the film unexpectedly grossed over Rs. 350 crores on a modest budget of Rs. 40 crores, nearly nine times its production cost, astonishing everyone. This success elevated Prashant Varma to a star director status. Following 'HanuMan,' Varma announced a new project with Nandamuri Balakrishna's son Mokshagna Teja, which is soon to commence shooting. He is also focusing on the sequel 'Jai Hanuman.'

However, there is buzz on the internet about the heroine involved in this film. Star Actress's Daughter as the Heroine! There is strong buzz online that a star actress's daughter has been set to be the heroine in Mokshagna's film. It is rumored that Raveena Tandon’s daughter, Rasha Thadani, has been chosen as the lead actress. It’s said that she has also auditioned and, following a narration by Prasanth Varma, has given her green light to the project. An official announcement is expected soon. Prasanth Varma is planning to bring this movie to the sets from December. Since both the hero and heroine are newcomers, it will be interesting to see how Prasanth manages them. Villain Role by Rana! Buzz is circulating about the villain's role in Mokshagna - Prasanth Varma's project. It is being considered to cast Rana Daggubati as the antagonist, believing that only he can do justice to the cruel villain character. Discussions are reportedly also underway with Rana. Pre-production work for the movie has been completed, and shooting is officially planned to start on December 2. Prasanth Varma plans to start regular shooting on that day, with M.

In the upcoming film of Mokshagna - Prasanth Varma combo, Nandamuri Balakrishna is rumored to appear in a special role. Like 'Hanuman', this film is said to include superhero and mythological elements, with Balakrishna possibly entering as Lord Krishna, adding a twist to the story. There is also speculation that he might appear as Arjuna. Prasanth Varma's team needs to provide clarity on this. Fans believe that if Balakrishna acts in his son's debut film, it will add a unique thrill. This movie is expected to remain a memorable one for Nandamuri fans. Maha Kali Project It is known that Mokshagna's film comes from Prasanth Varma’s cinematic universe. Recently, Prasanth Varma announced another movie from his universe titled 'Maha Kali.'

We will showcase what real superheroes look like in this film." However, Prasanth Varma will not direct this film; it will be directed by female director Pooja Aparna Kolluru.

      Prabhas on Fire: New Pan-India Projects with Top Directors Across India – Hirani, Neel, Kanagaraj & More!
      Rebel Star Prabhas is currently on a roll in his career, setting up a lineup of pan-India projects in a way no other hero has managed to do.

Additionally, projects like 'Spirit' and 'Kalki 2' are ready to go on floors. Beyond these, it's known that Prabhas has greenlit three more solid projects, preparing to work with star directors from various Indian languages. Let's find out who these directors are and what the movies are about. With Tamil Director Lokesh Kanagaraj...

Hirani, known for directing hits like 'Munna Bhai MBBS', '3 Idiots', 'PK', 'Sanju', and 'Dunki', has a dedicated fan base in Hindi cinema, and Prabhas's global fan following could mean that this combo might break all records. With Kannada Director Prashanth Neel...

      Fans have been eagerly awaiting the silver screen debut of Nandamuri Balakrishna's son, Mokshagna Teja, for a long time. Now, the Nandamuri heir is ready to make his entry into the film industry. Mokshagna, who previously appeared a bit chubby, has recently transformed into a slim and heroic look. Director Prasanth Varma of 'Hanu-Man' fame is set to introduce him to the Telugu audience. In this context, a news piece related to Mokshagna Teja's movie is making rounds in the industry, bringing immense joy to Nandamuri fans. Let's delve into those details. Amitabh in a Special Role! Balakrishna has entrusted the responsibility of introducing his son Mokshagna to the industry to young director Prasanth Varma. Gaining nationwide recognition with 'Hanu-Man,' Prasanth Varma is planning meticulously to introduce the Nandamuri heir on a grand scale. It is reported that he has already prepared a pan-India story. In this scenario, Prasanth Varma is considering bringing Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan onboard for a crucial role. The director believes that only Big B can do complete justice to this character and is expected to approach him soon regarding the same. Prasanth Varma's Big Plan! Sources suggest that director Prasanth Varma plans to make a grand entry into Bollywood by casting Amitabh in Mokshagna's film. He believes that having such a legendary actor in the movie will also benefit Mokshagna. There is also buzz in the industry that this film with Mokshagna will be a part of Prasanth Varma's cinematic universe. Strong speculations indicate that the Nandamuri heir will be seen in the role of Abhimanyu. It is also said that several prominent actors will be part of the cast. An official announcement regarding these details is expected soon. Big B Said No to Balayya! In the past, director Krishna Vamsi planned a movie with the combination of Nandamuri Balakrishna and Amitabh Bachchan. Reports at that time suggested that Big B politely declined when approached for the project, leading to its shelving. With this history, there is curiosity about whether Amitabh, who once said no to Balayya, will act in his son's debut film. Additionally, there is information that Sreeleela is being considered as the female lead opposite Mokshagna in this movie. Key updates regarding the film are expected to be announced soon.

Names of star directors like Boyapati were also floated. However, Balayya chose young director Prasanth Varma for his son's debut, and there seems to be a strong reason behind this decision. Prasanth Varma's name resonated across the country with 'Hanu-Man,' showcasing his talent to all. Having experience working with young heroes like Teja Sajja, Balayya believes that Prasanth can present Mokshagna effectively. Moreover, their personal rapport might have influenced Balayya's decision to favor Prasanth Varma. In a Handsome Look.. Photos of Nandamuri Mokshagna sporting a handsome look have recently surfaced on the internet. In these pictures, Mokshagna mesmerized everyone with his dashing appearance, looking completely fit and surprising many. He conveyed through his new look that he is a perfect star hero material.

      Prabhas: Prabhas-Anushka Pair Back in the Spotlight… Why?
      Prabhas: Prabhas-Anushka Pair Back in the Spotlight… Why?
      When it comes to the best on-screen pair in Tollywood, Prabhas and Anushka often top the list. Their chemistry has garnered a dedicated fan base, with fans frequently posting on social media wishing for them to get married. Though such rumors circulated for some time, they were eventually dismissed as unfounded. Currently, Prabhas is busy with Raja Saab while Anushka, also known as “Sweety,” is occupied with her film Ghaati. Recently, special posters were released on Prabhas’ birthday for Raja Saab and on Anushka’s birthday for Ghaati, sparking online discussions as fans noticed striking similarities between the two posters. With a Cigar in Hand… In Ghaati, where Anushka plays the female lead, she is shown in a rugged, intense look with blood on her face, smoking a cigar, surrounded by smoke. Interestingly, Prabhas’ recent Raja Saab poster also depicted him in a similar getup, holding a cigar in his mouth with a smoky effect. Fans have taken to social media, placing both posters side by side and tagging them as “King and Queen,” calling for a new film featuring the two together. https://twitter.com/subhaashiniii/status/1854377730575397055 A Fierce Anushka On Thursday morning, the makers of Ghaati released the first look of Anushka’s character, followed by a solid teaser in the evening. Unlike her previous films, Anushka appears more violent and intense, shown mercilessly decapitating someone while looking in a bus mirror. In the teaser, she is seen calmly smoking a cigar with blood-covered hands after the brutal act. This powerful role brings back memories of her impactful performances in films like Vedam and Arundhati, where she showcased her ability to take on strong, intense roles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5FkYULk3Ls All Hopes Pinned on Ghaati Anushka, once a leading star in the industry, is currently facing challenges in her career, with fewer opportunities alongside major stars. Although her recent film Miss Shetty Mr. Polishetty received positive feedback, it didn’t achieve the kind of success fans expected for her. Therefore, Ghaati is a crucial project for Anushka as she aims to re-establish her position in the industry. Similarly, Ghaati’s director Krish is also relying on this project for a comeback after the shelving of Hari Hara Veera Mallu. Prabhas’ Upcoming Projects Prabhas currently has a packed lineup of pan-India projects. Along with Raja Saab, he is working with Sandeep Reddy Vanga on Spirit, Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2, Prashanth Neel’s Salaar 2, and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Fauji. He also has a special role in Manchu Vishnu’s ambitious project Kannappa. Recently, Prasanth Varma, known for HanuMan, reportedly narrated a story to Prabhas that he was highly interested in. Furthermore, discussions are ongoing for projects with Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj and Bollywood’s Rajkumar Hirani. With these diverse ventures, Prabhas’ career is on an unstoppable rise.

      The Future of Telugu Cinema: Directors Who Could Rival S.S.Rajamouli's Success
      The Future of Telugu Cinema: Directors Who Could Rival S.S.Rajamouli's Success
      Among India's esteemed directors, S.S. Rajamouli is distinguished by his unbroken streak of success. With films like 'RRR,' he has propelled Telugu cinema to international prominence and is currently poised to penetrate the global market with 'SSMB29,' starring Mahesh Babu. However, there are ongoing discussions among North Indian audiences about whether any Telugu directors can match Rajamouli's achievements. In response, we are giving several dynamic directors making their mark who can impact the Indian box office in a manner akin to Rajamouli. Who are these directors? Let's explore. [toc] Nag Ashwin Currently, one of the most talked-about directors in Tollywood is Nag Ashwin. His upcoming film 'Kalki 2898 AD' featuring Prabhas is creating buzz at a global level. This science fiction movie, inspired by Indian mythology, is set to release worldwide on June 27. Film analysts believe that if this movie succeeds, there will be no turning back for Nag Ashwin's career. This film has the potential to elevate Tollywood to a new level and could bring immense fame to Nag Ashwin. His vision, execution, and unique promotions remind one of Rajamouli’s style. Director Rajamouli consistently sets the standard in incorporating technology into cinema, known for world-class graphics, inventive weaponry, distinctive costumes, and extraordinary hero portrayals. Director Nag Ashwin, in a similar vein, channels Rajamouli’s innovative spirit by leveraging cutting-edge technology for 'Kalki'. The film features a specially designed vehicle named 'Bujji', used by Prabhas for his on-screen adventures. On Wednesday (May 22), a special preview of 'Bujji' was released, rapidly gaining popularity on YouTube. https://twitter.com/i/status/1793606030703927405 The 'Bujji' special vehicle was developed in collaboration with Mahindra company, costing around 7 crores. Normally, it takes five to ten years to develop a new vehicle, but director Nag Ashwin has integrated the Mahindra team into the film to direct them according to his vision. He stated in the 'Bujji' glimpse release event that this vehicle plays an important role in the movie. He thanked the Mahindra team for their cooperation in creating the vehicle. https://twitter.com/i/status/1793303611583418579 Sukumar Before "Pushpa: The Rise," Sukumar was primarily recognized within Tollywood, but the film's success catapulted him to a pan-India directorial status. His direction in "Pushpa" left a strong impression, especially his transformation of the stylish Allu Arjun into a rugged character with untidy hair and a beard, perfectly matching the role's demands. Unlike Rajamouli, who is known for emphasizing the interval and climax scenes with intense action, Sukumar adopted a unique approach in "Pushpa." He designed these key scenes without violence, thereby intensifying anticipation for the second half. In the climax, Pushpa's confrontation with SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat (Fahadh Faasil) set the stage intriguingly for the upcoming sequel. Everyone is waiting eagerly for the sequel 'Pushpa 2: The Rule', set to release on August 15. The makers have already started promotions. If this movie is successful, Sukumar’s stature is expected to rise significantly. He has also announced that his next film will star Ram Charan. Rumors are that 'Pushpa 3' is also in the pipeline, suggesting that Sukumar could reach Rajamouli's level of popularity in the next 2-3 years. Sandeep Reddy Vanga Tollywood sensation director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has proven his mettle with the movie 'Animal'. He has earned a unique recognition by making films with different concepts and has changed the style of cinema making, similar to Rajamouli. He is currently preparing to shoot his next film with Prabhas, titled 'Spirit'. In 'Spirit', Prabhas will appear as a police officer for the first time, and his character is expected to be very powerful. A poster related to Prabhas’s character has already been released, showing him in a different style of police uniform, reminiscent of an international cop look. Sandeep has promised that 'Spirit' will feature even stronger content than 'Animal', and he is confident that the movie will collect 150 crores on the first day alone, reaching 1500 crores in collections within a week if it receives positive reviews. Following 'Spirit', Sandeep Reddy is set to direct with Ranbir Kapoor in 'Animal 2'. If these two films are successful, film analysts believe that Sandeep could achieve a level of fame comparable to Rajamouli. Prasanth Varma Young director Prasanth Varma has made a nationwide impact with his film 'HanuMan'. Achieving star director status with just his third movie, 'HanuMan' has become this year's highest-grossing film, collecting over Rs. 350 crores and surpassing expectations at the box office. Prasanth Varma is now developing 'Hanuman 2' and is rumored to be directing a period film featuring Bollywood star Ranveer Singh. Success in these two projects could elevate Prasanth Varma's reputation to a national level. Prashanth Neel Kannada director Prashanth Neel has achieved solid success with 'Salaar,' featuring Tollywood star Prabhas. His directing style has greatly impressed even Rajamouli. Prashanth Neel has captivated everyone by providing elevations that match Prabhas' on-screen persona, presenting him as a strong personality in 'Salaar.' He designed the interval sequence wonderfully, reminiscent of Rajamouli’s style. Every appearance of Prabhas on screen sent chills down the fans' spines. Currently, Prashanth Neel is fully dedicated to 'Salaar: Part 2 - Shouryanga Parvam'. Success with this film could establish him as one of the top directors nationally. He is also preparing for 'NTR31' with Tarak, expected to start production soon, and the production company has announced that 'KGF 3' is underway. If these three projects are successful, Prashanth Neel’s fame could rival that of Rajamouli. Koratala Siva Koratala Siva, a noted director in Tollywood, has seen substantial box office success with all his films except 'Acharya'. He is now directing a pan-India film titled 'Devara' featuring Tarak, set against a coastal backdrop and generating significant buzz. The film, which includes Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan and music by Anirudh, will release in two parts, the first on October 10. The promotional materials, including a thrilling scene of Tarak with a sword, have heightened expectations. Success with 'Devara' could elevate Koratala Siva to national prominence. If both parts succeed, he could become one of the country's most prominent directors. Sujeeth Sujeeth, recognized for his stylish direction, possesses skills akin to Hollywood filmmakers and is often compared to S.S. Rajamouli. Following 'Baahubali,' he directed Prabhas in 'Saaho.' Despite the film not meeting box office expectations, audiences appreciated Sujeeth’s direction, screenplay, and innovative approach, especially his execution of action scenes. He showcased Prabhas in a notably stylish role. At that time, it was said that Sujeeth would not need to look back if he could achieve a significant hit. Currently, he is directing 'OG' with Pawan Kalyan, anticipated as a pan-India release. Early glimpses have already excited Pawan's fans, where he portrays a gangster. If 'OG' succeeds, it is believed that Sujeeth's career could soar, with some analysts suggesting that two major hits might propel him to a status comparable to Rajamouli's. Buchi Babu Buchi Babu is one of the few directors who achieved a solid hit with their debut film. With 'Uppena,' he introduced a pure love story to the audience, proving his significant talent to the industry. He has now risen to a level where he is set to direct his next film with Tollywood star Ram Charan. This upcoming film, a sports drama, will also be released at a pan-India level. Analysts believe that if Buchi Babu's talent combines well with Ram Charan's star power, the film is sure to succeed. They also opine that his name will become well-known at a national level if this project succeeds.

      'Game Changer' Release Date Locked announcement on Vinayaka Chavithi?
      'Game Changer' Release Date Locked announcement on Vinayaka Chavithi?
      Following 'RRR,' Ram Charan stars in the highly anticipated film 'Game Changer,' directed by Tamil star director Shankar. This political action thriller is produced by prominent Tollywood producer Dil Raju. Fans are eagerly waiting to know when this film will hit the screens. Recently, a significant update regarding the release date of 'Game Changer' has emerged, suggesting a big surprise on Vinayaka Chavithi. Let's look at the details. Release Date Locked? It appears that a major update is ready for the film 'Game Changer.' The movie team is planning to unveil a poster with the much-awaited release date. The film is set for a pan-India release on December 20, as a Christmas gift. There's buzz that an official announcement regarding the release date will be made on September 7, during Vinayaka Chavithi, potentially through a special poster. Producer Dil Raju recently confirmed at a movie event that 'Game Changer' would be released in December, delighting mega fans. Teaser Ready to Launch So far, the 'Game Changer' movie has not released content up to the expected level. In response, the makers are preparing to release a teaser soon. They plan to surprise mega fans with the teaser this month, giving a full treat with two updates within the same month. Industry insiders speculate that the teaser might be released in the last week of September. If this happens, it will be a joyous occasion for Ram Charan's fans. Why Only for Christmas! 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.

      Cast: Rajinikanth, Amitabh Bachchan, Manju Warrier, Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Ritika Singh, and othersDirector: T.J. GnanavelMusic: Anirudh RavichanderEditor: Philomin RajCinematography: S.R. KhadirProduction House: Lyca ProductionsProducer: Subaskaran AllirajahRelease Date: October 10, 2024 Superstar Rajinikanth plays the lead role in 'Vettaiyan - The Hunter,' directed by T.J. Gnanavel, known for 'Jai Bhim'. Produced by Subaskaran of Lyca Productions, the film features Amitabh Bachchan, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Fahadh Faasil, Dushara Vijayan, and Ritika Singh in pivotal roles. The movie has been released in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam. However, the retention of the Tamil title in the Telugu version drew some criticism. Did the movie overcome these issues to receive positive talk? Did it bring Rajini another solid success after the blockbuster 'Jailer'? Let’s find out in this review. Plot Police officer Adhiyan (Rajinikanth) serves as the SP of Kanyakumari and earns a reputation as an encounter specialist. Based on a complaint from school teacher Saranya (Dushara Vijayan), he takes down a drug mafia leader. Later, Saranya is transferred to Chennai, where she unexpectedly becomes a victim of sexual assault and murder. As teachers' associations and the public protest on a large scale, the case is handed over to Adhiyan. He apprehends a person named Gunaa within 48 hours, claiming him to be the culprit, and executes him in an encounter. A judicial committee is then formed, headed by Judge Sathyadev (Amitabh Bachchan), to investigate the matter. What did the committee find? What was the reason behind Saranya's death? What role does the education mafia play in her murder? And how are characters like Patrick (Fahadh Faasil), Nataraj (Rana Daggubati), ACP Roopa Kiran (Ritika Singh), and Hanu Reddy (Sampath Raj) connected to the case? To find out, you must watch the movie. Performance Analysis As always, Superstar Rajinikanth delivers an exceptional performance. His mass moments, heroism, and elevation scenes make his character a visual treat. Especially, his dialogue delivery and mannerisms are sure to impress the audience. Amitabh Bachchan, in an equally important role, is fantastic, and their scenes together are electrifying. Fahadh Faasil, playing a police informer, is captivated by his witty performance. Rana Daggubati and Dushara Vijayan also got substantial roles and impressed with their performances. The rest of the cast has performed well within their scope. Direction and Execution Director T.J. Gnanavel, known for the socially conscious 'Jai Bhim,' attempts to deliver another strong message through 'Vettaiyan.' Adding mass moments, heroism, and commercial elements to the story was a major plus. The film boldly addresses how people exploit under the guise of "smart education." The director starts the movie on a commercial note with Rajinikanth's introduction and action against the drug mafia and takes the story into the core plot after Saranya's case. However, the slow pace of the narration and some predictable elements work against the film. But the scenes between Amitabh and Rajini are a highlight, adding intrigue. Rajini’s dialogues and the director’s handling of the star cast like Fahadh Faasil and Rana are impressive. The climax is also satisfactory. Technical Aspects In terms of technical aspects, every department performed well. The cinematography was excellent, giving the film a commercial look. Anirudh's background score, as always, excites the audience, and the fans are sure to enjoy it. The editing could have been a bit sharper. Lyca Productions did not compromise on the production quality.

      From Screen to Stream: 'Kalki 2898 AD' Sets Sights on OTT Debut
      From Screen to Stream: 'Kalki 2898 AD' Sets Sights on OTT Debut
      The film 'Kalki 2898 AD', featuring Rebel Star Prabhas and director Nag Ashwin, has shaken the box office, garnering over ₹1100 crores globally. Since its release on June 27, this mythological science fiction movie has been breaking numerous records at the box office and continues to dominate theaters even after 50 days. Many are eagerly anticipating when 'Kalki' will be available on OTT. A recent update related to its streaming has come out, exciting the fans of Prabhas immensely. Is the OTT Date for Kalki Locked? It appears that Amazon Prime has secured the digital streaming rights for 'Kalki 2898 AD'. There is strong buzz that the film will be brought to streaming on August 23. However, it is rumored that the film will be slightly trimmed compared to the theatrical version, with about 6 minutes of footage potentially being cut. Official announcements regarding the OTT release and the runtime are expected soon. However, Prabhas' fans are expressing dissatisfaction with the decision to trim the runtime, questioning why scenes that were not in the theatrical version aren't being added instead. Prabhas Pushes Shah Rukh Back In 2024, 'Kalki 2898 AD' stood out as the biggest hit among all the releases so far, continuously setting new records and garnering immense popularity. It has reportedly collected over ₹760 crores across all languages nationwide, surpassing the all-time Indian collection record of Shah Rukh Khan's movie 'Jawan', which had collections amounting to ₹760 crores. Prior to 'Kalki', 'Jawan' held the fourth position in the list of highest-grossing Indian films. As per the latest collections, 'Kalki 2898 AD' now ranks as the fourth highest-grossing Indian film, following 'Baahubali 2', 'KGF 2', and 'RRR' in the top three spots. Looks Like No Kalki 2 Anytime Soon! With the blockbuster success of 'Kalki 2898 AD', anticipation is high for a sequel. Producer Ashwani Dutt previously hinted that 'Kalki 2' could be released around June or July next year, with 60% of the shooting already completed. However, recent buzz suggests that the remaining shooting might face delays due to Deepika Padukone, who is currently pregnant and due in September. Post-delivery, she plans to take at least a year's break from films, having already stepped back from a much-loved project by Rohit Shetty and a major Bollywood show. This indicates that Deepika might also be unavailable for 'Kalki 2's' shooting, potentially pushing its release to 2026 if this scenario unfolds. Prabhas in Full Swing! Currently, Prabhas has more pan-India films in his pipeline than any other star in the country. Any project with Prabhas isn't expected to start before 2026. Currently, he is working on 'Raja Saab' under the direction of Maruthi, which is progressing rapidly. He is also set to collaborate with Sandeep Reddy Vanga for a movie titled 'Spirit', and a sequel to 'Salaar' directed by Prashanth Neel is in the works post 'NTR 31'. Prabhas is also set to portray Lord Shiva in 'Kannappa' starring Manchu Vishnu, and has another project lined up with Hanu Raghavapudi. All these projects are likely to take at least two years to complete.

      Balakrishna - Ram: A New Combo in Tollywood.. Has the Era of Multistarrers Begun?
      There's a significant craze for multi starrer films in Tollywood. Seeing two star heroes on the same screen is a feast for the audience's eyes. In the past, such multi starrer films were made on a large scale, but recently, their frequency has decreased. Consequently, the audience also shifted their interest away from the multistarrer mania. However, after 'RRR,' the demand for such films has resurged. With the right story, Telugu stars are ready to engage in multistarrer projects again. Recently, there have been rumors about new combinations like Chiranjeevi-Pawan-Charan, Ram Charan-Suriya. Now, there's buzzing news about a Balakrishna-Ram Pothineni combo film.

Actor Balakrishna has been targeting mass audiences with his films for some time. Although Ram started his career with lover boy roles, he has recently shifted focus to action films, appearing in movies like 'iSmart Shankar,' 'Skanda,' and 'Double iSmart.' The news of these two heroes coming together for a multistarrer has stirred excitement in Tollywood. Rumors suggest that the famous production house, Mythri Movie Makers, will be producing this project, and Kannada star hero Shivaraj Kumar might also join. However, there has been no official announcement from the production company yet. If this news turns out to be true, it will indeed be a festival for mass audiences. Good Friendship The personal relationship between hero Ram and Nandamuri Balakrishna is well-known. This was evident during the audio function of 'Skanda,' where Balakrishna graced the event as the chief guest and shared a close bond with Ram. In his speech, Ram showered praises on Balakrishna, stating that while he delights one generation, Balakrishna continues to enchant three. Balakrishna reciprocated by lifting Ram to the skies. This friendship transcends age, and if these two star heroes come together for a film, it's expected to shatter records. Buzz on Charan - Suriya Combo! A multistarrer featuring Global Star Ram Charan and Tamil star hero Suriya is rumored to be in the works. Hanu Raghavapudi, known for crafting love stories, is said to be directing this film. The script has reportedly been liked by Suriya, and it’s now awaiting Ram Charan’s approval. If Ram Charan agrees, this project is all set to go on floors, promising high-voltage fight sequences that could break box office records. Fans are posting eagerly, anticipating this could be one of the biggest Pan-India projects if it materializes. Mega Heroes in a Multistarrer! Among the directors close to the Mega family, Harish Shankar is a notable one. During the promotion of his film 'Mr Bachchan', Harish Shankar made significant comments about why he hasn't directed a pan-India film yet. He revealed that he is preparing a story for Pawan Kalyan, Ram Charan, and Chiranjeevi, stating that if this project takes off, it would be the biggest pan-India film ever, surpassing all others. This news has the Mega fans celebrating and hoping the project goes on floors soon. Previously, Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan worked together in 'Acharya', and Chiru had special cameos in 'Bruce Lee' and 'Magadheera'. Pawan Kalyan also made brief appearances in 'Shankar Dada MBBS' and 'Shankar Dada Zindabad'.
