Vinayaka Chavithi 2024: Telugu Celebrities in the Service of Lord Ganesha.. Take a Look!


Cast: Kamal Haasan, Siddharth, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Priya Bhavani, Vivek



Director: Shankar



Music: Anirudh Ravichander



Cinematographer: Ravi Varman



Editor: Sreekar Prasad



Producer: Allirajah Subaskaran



Release Date: 12-07-2024



Kamal Haasan and director Shankar's original film, 'Bharateeyudu', which debuted twenty-five years ago, became a sensation for its intense critique of corruption and bribery. The sequel, titled 'Bharateeyudu 2', was released in theaters on July 12. Alongside Kamal Haasan, the film stars Siddharth, Rakul Preet Singh, S.J. Surya, Bobby Simha, Brahmanandam, and Samuthirakani in pivotal roles. Has this film met expectations? Has Kamal Haasan once again captivated audiences as Bharateeyudu2? Let's explore in this review.







Plot



Aravindan (Siddharth) and his friends fight against corruption and injustices within the country. They spread awareness through social media videos and urge the return of Bharateeyudu. In response, the veteran freedom fighter Senapathi (Kamal Haasan), known for his previous anti-corruption crusades, returns to India. He takes decisive action against those deeply involved in corruption and motivates the youth. However, unexpected developments stir public dissent against Bharateeyudu. What exactly unfolded? Why did the public turn against Senapathi? What triggered their anger? Did Bharateeyudu succeed in his objectives upon returning? This forms the crux of the story.







Performance&nbsp;



In 'Bharateeyudu 2', Kamal Haasan delivers a virtuoso performance, reprising the role of Senapathi with remarkable skill. Siddharth also stands out in a pivotal role. Rakul Preet Singh and S.J. Surya enhance the film with their performances, although their characters are somewhat underdeveloped. The rest of the cast delivers adequate performances.







Direction



Director Shankar seems to have merely repeated the narrative of Bharateeyudu. He updated an outdated story to fit modern times, focusing the sequel on showcasing how Bharateeyudu would eliminate corruption today. Shankar’s usual flair is missing in the direction. The screenplay is lackluster, and even Kamal Haasan's introduction isn't as engaging. While some scenes are well-executed, others fail to make an impact. However, Kamal Haasan's chase sequences and the fight scenes with terrorists are highlights. The social message adds some strength to the film, but the lack of father-daughter sentiment and uninspiring songs from the first film negatively impact this one. Overall, the sequel fails to mesmerize the audience as Senapathi did before.







Technical Aspects



On the technical front, the music by Anirudh Ravichander isn't memorable, though the background score is good. However, in some scenes, the BGM dominates too much. The cinematography is commendable, and the editing is passable. The production values are high, showing no compromise on spending.

Bharateeyudu 2 Review: Kamal Haasan Returns, but Does the Sequel Match the Original's Brilliance?


Tollywood has released countless films throughout its history. Naturally, not all of these films achieve blockbuster status. Audience responses can be mixed—while some movies become hits, others do not fare as well. The films we're going to discuss next, however, were particularly flops. Reports indicate that audiences walked out of the theaters before these movies even reached the halfway mark. Let's take a look at these films.



[toc]



Extra Ordinary Man



From the day of its release, the recent film featuring Nithiin and Sreeleela , 'Extra Ordinary Man', encountered heavy criticism and trolling on social media. Critics admitted struggling to watch it even until the interval. Viewers were puzzled by the protagonist's actions, which seemed entirely controlled by the villain. 'Extra Ordinary Man' quickly became one of the most trolled films in Nithiin's career.







Shaakuntalam



'Shaakuntalam', starring Samantha, arrived with high expectations, being her first venture into mythological cinema, and the promotional content had amplified these anticipations. However, the reception took a downturn after its release. Critics believed Samantha was not well-suited for the role of Shaakuntala, and pointed out issues with the dubbing. Online commenters also noted that the film was difficult to watch even through the first half.







Radhe Shyam



'Radhe Shyam', featuring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde, fell short of audience expectations. Although Prabhas's dashing vintage appearance had raised hopes, the film's blend of astrology and romance failed to connect with viewers. Social media was a buzz with comments from fans who felt bored within the first hour and many reported leaving the theater at the interval.







World Famous Lover



The film 'World Famous Lover', featuring Vijay Deverakonda with heroines Raashii Khanna, Aishwarya Rajesh, Catherine, and Izabelle, began facing trolls from its release. Critics targeted the movie for its focus solely on romance, lacking a substantial plot. Some netizens harshly commented that Vijay might be better suited for adult films. Social media posts reflected anticipation for the interval, with viewers eager to exit the theater.







Brahmotsavam



'Brahmotsavam' is often cited as a significant disappointment in Mahesh Babu's career, leaving a lasting mark, as per his fans. Despite featuring a star-studded ensemble including Kajal Aggarwal, Samantha, and Pranitha, along with Satyaraj, Jayasudha, Revathi, Tulasi, and Rao Ramesh, the film did not engage audiences. Trolling started from the very first showing on its release day, with even Mahesh Babu's own fans admitting they walked out halfway through the movie.







Son Of India



'Son Of India', featuring the veteran actor Manchu Mohan Babu, encountered significant negativity even before its release. Notably, only two tickets were sold for the first show on opening day at one theater, an incident that quickly went viral on social media, with speculations that even those tickets might have been purchased by the Manchu family themselves. The few who did watch the film gave it negative reviews, resulting in its rapid withdrawal from theaters. It is considered the biggest disaster in Mohan Babu's career.







Vinaya Vidheya Rama



'Vinaya Vidheya Rama', a film by Ram Charan and director Boyapati Srinu, faced widespread criticism from its first showing. People took to social media to label the film as extremely poor and expressed eagerness for the interval so they could leave. Audiences found certain scenes, like Ram Charan standing on a moving train to Bihar or him beheading the villain's henchmen and carrying their heads, hard to accept.







Liger



'Liger', another disaster in Vijay Deverakonda's career, was directed by Puri Jagannadh and released on a Pan-India scale, only to receive a flop response. Interest in the film faded within the first hour of its release, leading to a flood of posts on the internet. Critics questioned why Vijay put so much effort into a role that ultimately did not seem to fit him well.







Sakthi



When you think of disasters in Telugu cinema, 'Sakthi' is often the first film that comes to mind. Its director, Meher Ramesh, is still playfully criticized by NTR fans. Viewers questioned how Tarak (NTR ) agreed to the script after just the first show. Criticisms also targeted the flashback scenes, noting that Tarak's look was completely unsuitable. The same director's film 'Shadow' with Venkatesh also ended up as a disaster. Interestingly, 'Shakthi' was still being mentioned during the release of Meher Ramesh's recent film 'Bhola Shankar'.







Saleem



'Saleem', featuring Manchu Vishnu and Ileana D'Cruz, stands out as one of the notable failures in Telugu cinema. Manchu Vishnu notably slimmed down for his role in the film. Critics remarked that the movie appeared to be a jumble of four to five different film scripts combined. Comments indicated that the film turned dull before even reaching the midpoint of the first part.

Before Charan...



The first Telugu hero to make it to Madame Tussauds was the pan-India rebel star Prabhas, whose statue is placed in the Bangkok museum. Tollywood superstar Mahesh Babu’s statue is in the Singapore Madame Tussauds, where they also have a statue of Sridevi, styled after her appearance in the Bollywood hit 'Mr. India'. Actress Kajal Aggarwal’s wax figure is also there. Recently, the icon star Allu Arjun’s statue, styled as his character Pushparaj, was set up in the Dubai Madame Tussauds.







Bollywood Stars' Statues



Several Bollywood celebrities also have their statues in Madame Tussauds. These include statues of Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, former Miss World Aishwarya Rai, muscleman Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, star couple Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and veteran heroine Madhuri Dixit.







Charan’s Future Projects



Ram Charan is currently working on 'Game Changer' under the direction of Tamil director Shankar, which is creating strong buzz as a Christmas release. He will also act under the direction of 'Uppena' fame Buchi Babu in 'RC16', which is set to start shooting soon. After the release of 'Pushpa 2', he is slated to work on a project with director Sukumar, which has already been officially announced.

Weekend OTT Suggestions: Don't Miss These Super Hit New Movies This Weekend!


Kamal Haasan is among the most esteemed actors from India, known for his unique acting prowess. He has garnered recognition not just within the industry but also internationally, earning fans worldwide. Beyond acting, his roles as a writer, director, and producer have set him apart. Recently, on November 7th, Kamal Haasan celebrated his 70th birthday, receiving extensive wishes from celebrities and fans. Moreover, he has just released a sensational letter that has sparked interest across the Indian film industry.



In the letter, he stated...



Kamal Haasan is affectionately called "Ulaga Nayagan" by his fans, which translates to 'Universal Star.' Similarly, in Telugu, he is referred to as 'Vishwa Nayakudu' and 'Loka Nayakudu,' meaning global and people’s leader, respectively. However, in a recent release, Kamal expressed his discomfort with these honorifics. He shared this special letter on social media in English and Tamil, stating, "I am grateful for the many titles like Ulaga Nayagan given in appreciation of my work. Like other art forms, cinema belongs to everyone. I believe no artist is greater than the art itself. After much contemplation, I have decided to respectfully decline the star tags. I request my fans, fellow celebrities, and fellow Indians to address me simply as Kamal Haasan or K.H."




https://twitter.com/ikamalhaasan/status/1855832318268567619




"I am a perpetual student"



In his public letter, Kamal made more intriguing remarks. He noted that cinema is beyond any individual's imagination and that he remains a perpetual student of this art. He expressed his desire to keep learning and advancing in his field, emphasizing that cinema, like other arts, belongs to everyone. It reflects the collective efforts of countless artists, technicians, and audiences, and represents a myriad of magnificent stories. Recognizing his own imperfections, he stated his commitment to improving as an actor, adhering to his roots without the need for titles.







And this Telugu star too...



Rejecting star tags is not new among actors. Known for his natural acting, Nani earned the title of 'Natural Star'. In December 2021, during the promotions for "Shyam Singha Roy," this young actor made interesting remarks about shedding his tag, suggesting people should just call him Nani. However, his fans continue to affectionately call him Natural Star. Similarly, Tamil actor Ajith has also announced that he rejects his tags. He requested not to be addressed with prefixes like 'Thala' or any other star tags, asking to be called simply Ajith Kumar or Ajith, AK.






Kamal Haasan’s Bold Stand: ‘Don’t Call Me Ulaga Nayagan’—The Story Behind His New Message


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.






Bharateeyudu 3 Heading Straight to OTT: Can Shankar and Kamal Haasan Bounce Back After 'Bharateeyudu 2' Flop?


Cast: Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Dulquer Salmaan, Vijay Deverakonda, Disha Patani, Rana Daggubati, Anna Ben, among others.



Written and Directed by: Nag Ashwin



Music by: Santhosh Narayanan



Editing by: Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao



Producers: Ashwini Dutt, Priyanka Dutt, Swapna Dutt



Production Company: Vyjayanthi Movies Makers



Release Date: June 27, 2024



The film 'Kalki 2898 AD,' directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Prabhas, generated worldwide excitement. This high-budget science fiction action movie, also featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan, became known as India's most expensive production. With its Hollywood-level trailer and teaser, anticipation skyrocketed following the initial poster release. The movie premiered on June 27. Did 'Kalki 2898 AD' meet the high expectations and give another blockbuster to Prabhas's career?







What's the story?



The plot of 'Kalki 2898 AD' unfolds from a deceit by Dharmaraja in the Mahabharata. Ashwatthama (Amitabh Bachchan), cursed by Krishna during the battle of Kurukshetra, eagerly anticipates the arrival of Kalki. Upon discovering that Kalki will be born to a woman named Sumati (Deepika Padukone), he takes on the role of her protector. Meanwhile, Bhairava (Prabhas) in Kashi seeks to enter a sacred complex that requires one million units for entry. Realizing that capturing Sumati could earn him the necessary funds, Bhairava sets out on his quest. Will he confront Ashwatthama and succeed in capturing Sumati? Who is Supreme Yashkin (Kamal Haasan) play, and why is he interested in Sumati? How are the Kali Yuga's conclusion and the Kurukshetra's battle connected? Why are the residents of Kashi and Shambhala facing hardships? What roles do Vijay Deverakonda and Dulquer Salmaan play? One must watch the movie 'Kalki' to find the answers to these questions.







How did they perform?



Pan-India star Prabhas once again asserted his commanding presence in this film, particularly shining in the role of Bhairava. His dynamic action sequences left a lasting impression. While his role was limited in the first half, he delivered a fully engaging performance in the second half. Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, portraying Ashwatthama, gave an unparalleled performance, with his efforts evident on screen. Kamal Haasan, playing the villain, offered a performance that surpassed expectations. Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani captivated audiences with their roles. The cameos by Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, Rajamouli, Rana, and RGV were delightful. All other actors fulfilled their roles with great conviction.







How's the direction?



Director Nag Ashwin is poised to make a global impact with 'Kalki'. The film's greatest strength lies in the story, which was crafted by Nag Ashwin himself. His direction, vision, and presentation all earn high praise. Although the first 40 minutes may appear slow, Ashwin ensures that the pace never falters. After this initial segment, the narrative picks up speed and maintains its intensity all the way to the climax. The scene just before the interval, in particular, is sure to give the audience goosebumps. The futuristic vehicles, weaponry, and sets are visually spectacular. Nonetheless, the screenplay has minor flaws, and some scenes seem overly prolonged. The absence of elements that typically thrill the broader audience represents a slight drawback. Improved dubbing for Deepika could have further enhanced the viewing experience. Overall, Nag Ashwin has achieved significant success as a director.







Technically



On the technical front, all departments exhibited exceptional skill. The graphics department especially deserves high praise. The cinematographer’s work is outstanding. Santhosh Narayanan’s music is a significant plus for the film, particularly elevating the action sequences. The editor could have sharpened his cuts a bit more. The production values are very high, with no compromises on the budget. Every scene is richly produced.

Kalki 2898 AD Movie Review: An Epic Sci-Fi Saga Starring Prabhas and an Ensemble Cast


The film 'Bharateeyudu 2', starring Kamal Haasan and directed by Shankar, is facing difficulties at the box office. Negative reviews from its first showing have significantly impacted its earnings. As a result, the revenue over Saturday and Sunday was low, causing the weekend collections to plummet. There is now widespread speculation that the film will be a disaster.



How much were the weekend collections?



Trade circles announced that 'Bharateeyudu 2' only managed to garner ₹59 crores over the weekend. It earned ₹25 crores on its first day, and significantly less, ₹18.2 crores on Saturday and ₹15.1 crores on Sunday. Saturday collections for the Tamil version were ₹13.7 crores, Telugu ₹3.2 crores, and Hindi ₹1.3 crores. Expected to increase, Sunday's collections instead dropped further, making ₹15.1 crores in India, with the Tamil version alone bringing in ₹11 crores. Telugu and Hindi versions only made ₹2.8 crores and ₹1.3 crores respectively.







Further decline expected!



With collections failing to meet expectations in the first weekend, the film crew is expressing concern. If this is the situation in the first week, there is apprehension about how much the collections could drop in the coming days. It's reported that some theater owners, especially in the Telugu states, are considering halting the screenings due to low turnout. Therefore, from Monday onwards, 'Bharateeyudu 2' is expected to perform even worse, with the Tamil market remaining the only hope for the film.







Day 1 collections?



Negative reviews impacted 'Bharateeyudu 2' on its first day, earning only ₹25.6 crores (GROSS) as reported by trade circles. The Tamil version collected the highest with ₹16.5 crores. Telugu earned ₹7.9 crores and Hindi just ₹1.2 crores. The film completely failed to attract the Hindi audience, leading to dismal collections in the north. The lack of interest from the Telugu audience was also noted.







A significant drop compared to other films!



Compared to Kamal Haasan's previous film 'Vikram', which earned ₹60 crores on its opening day, 'Bharateeyudu 2' saw a drastic fall in its Day 1 collections. His recent villain role in 'Kalki 2898 AD' garnered over ₹190 crores on its first day. Director Shankar's last film 'Robo 2.0' also created a record by collecting ₹93 crores on its opening day. However, 'Bharateeyudu 2' released on Friday didn't even come close to these films, collecting less than half of their Day 1 earnings, which surprised trade analysts.







Why did the collections drop?



The primary reason for the disappointing Day 1 collections of 'Bharateeyudu 2' is believed to be its failure to meet expectations. An outdated story and a weak screenplay significantly hurt the film. While the social message provided some strength, the lack of father-daughter sentiment, which was a plus in 'Bharateeyudu', turned out to be a negative. The songs also failed to impress, further impacting the film negatively. Overall, the sequel disappointed many, as netizens widely expressed their dissatisfaction. These factors likely contributed to the poor box office performance of 'Bharateeyudu 2'.







What is the story about?



Aravindan (Siddharth) and his friends fight against corruption and injustices within the country. They spread awareness through social media videos and urge the return of Bharateeyudu. In response, the veteran freedom fighter Senapathi (Kamal Haasan), known for his previous anti-corruption crusades, returns to India. He takes decisive action against those deeply involved in corruption and motivates the youth. However, unexpected developments stir public dissent against Bharateeyudu. What exactly unfolded? Why did the public turn against Senapathi? What triggered their anger? Did Bharateeyudu succeed in his objectives upon returning? This forms the crux of the story.






Indian 2 Weekend Collections: 'Bharateeyudu 2' takes a significant drop in earnings. How much over the weekend?


The film 'Bharateeyudu 2', directed by Shankar and starring Kamal Haasan, came with high expectations due to the blockbuster success of its predecessor, 'Bharateeyudu'. Released globally on Friday, July 12, the film failed to meet audience expectations and received mixed reviews on its opening day. Disappointed by the film, some netizens expressed their dissatisfaction on social media platforms. How did 'Bharateeyudu 2' perform in terms of day one collections? And how did the mixed reviews impact its earnings? Let's explore.



Day 1 Collections:



The negative reviews for 'Bharateeyudu 2' seem to have impacted its first-day collections significantly. According to trade sources, the film grossed Rs. 25.6 crores on its opening day, with the Tamil version alone contributing Rs. 16.5 crores. In Telugu, it earned Rs. 7.9 crores, and in Hindi, a mere Rs. 1.2 crores. Trade analysts pointed out that the film failed to captivate the Hindi-speaking audience, resulting in notably poor collections in the north. Additionally, the Telugu audience also showed limited interest in the movie, as noted by film analysts.







A Significant Drop in Collections!



Compared to Kamal Haasan’s previous film 'Vikram', which earned Rs. 60 crores on its opening day, 'Bharateeyudu 2' saw a substantial drop in day one collections. Even his recent antagonist role in 'Kalki 2898 AD', which debuted with more than Rs. 190 crores, and director Shankar’s last film 'Robo 2.0', which grossed Rs. 93 crores on its first day, outperformed 'Bharateeyudu 2'. It is noteworthy that 'Indian 2' did not even come close to these films in terms of first-day earnings, baffling trade analysts.







Why the Decline in Revenue?



Film analysts believe the main reason for the disappointing first-day collections of 'Bharateeyudu 2' is its failure to meet expectations. An outdated story and a weak screenplay significantly harmed the film. Although the social message added some strength, the lack of the father-daughter sentiment, a key element in the original 'Bharateeyudu', was a major drawback. The songs also failed to impress, contributing to the negative impact on the movie. Netizens also posted extensively about their disappointment, suggesting that these factors likely led to the poor box office performance of 'Bharateeyudu 2'.







The Story



Aravindan (Siddharth) and his friends fight against corruption and injustices within the country. They spread awareness through social media videos and urge the return of Bharateeyudu. In response, the veteran freedom fighter Senapathi (Kamal Haasan), known for his previous anti-corruption crusades, returns to India.

Bharateeyudu 2 Day 1 Collections: Unexpected Shock for ‘Bharateeyudu 2’, Significant Drop in Collections!


The recent film 'Kalki 2898 AD', crafted by creative director Nag Ashwin and starring pan-India star Prabhas, features legendary actors Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Bollywood beauties Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani in major roles. This film has created a sensation at the box office, collecting over Rs. 1200 crores globally and setting new records. Recently, the makers have released this movie on OTT, bringing it to two platforms. Currently, on OTT, 'Kalki' is making new records and is trending as the second film globally. Let’s look into these details.



Trending on a Global Scale



The film 'Kalki 2898 AD' has been available on OTT since August 22. The Kalki movie in South Indian languages, including Telugu, is streaming on Amazon Prime, while the Hindi version is available on Netflix. However, the Hindi version of 'Kalki' is soaring with record views on Netflix. It secured second place in the global trending list in non-English categories over the past week. The Hindi version of Kalki has achieved 4.5 million minutes viewed, as disclosed by Netflix sources. It's being touted as the first Indian movie to achieve this feat in such a short time, indicating that 'Kalki' is also making waves globally on OTT.







Behind in Amazon



As known, the Kalki film is streaming in South Indian languages on Amazon. However, 'Kalki 2898 AD' starring Prabhas is facing strong competition from 'Raayan’, a film featuring Dhanush, which premiered on Amazon a day later on August 23. Despite this, 'Raayan' is trending at the top spot in India, pushing 'Kalki' to the second place on Amazon with more views. However, with many already having watched 'Kalki', 'Raayan' is gaining popularity on OTT.







'The Best of This Generation’…



Hero Siddharth has praised the 'Kalki' team. Recently posting about the film, he lauded Prabhas’s role as exceptional. "I really like Prabhas. His character Bhairava will always remain my favorite. His acting as Karnudu is wonderful. Nag Ashwin has done an excellent job. This is the best film of this generation. I can’t help but praise Nag Ashwin and Vyjayanthi Movies. The film made such collections because it’s truly a great cinema," said Siddharth. Furthermore, Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, Rajamouli, and RGV made surprise cameo appearances in the Kalki film, delighting the audience.







Prabhas: The Biggest Star



Tamil star hero Vikram has praised hero Prabhas, who is making waves with pan-India films. Speaking in an interview about his latest film 'Thangalaan', Vikram elevated Prabhas, saying, “Prabhas is now the biggest superstar in India. It's not fair to just call him a Telugu hero.” Malavika, who also participated in the same interview, made intriguing remarks about Prabhas. She expressed joy at getting the opportunity to act with Prabhas in 'Raja Saab' and praised him for transcending language barriers in cinema. She was amazed at the admiration audiences have for his films. Malavika clarified that the film 'Raja Saab' is set to mesmerize audiences at a pan-India level.

Kalki 2898 AD On OTT: 'Kalki' Stirring Up a Storm on Netflix... A Record as the First Indian Film!


The film 'Kalki 2898 AD', directed by Nag Ashwin and featuring Prabhas, made a massive impact at the Indian box office. With a stellar cast including Kamal Haasan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Deepika Padukone, the movie generated over ₹1100 crores, greatly exceeding expectations. This remarkable success has turned attention towards its sequel, with audiences eagerly anticipating the release of 'Kalki 2'. However, recent reports suggest that the shooting for 'Kalki 2' is unlikely to commence soon, reportedly due to complications involving the lead actress, Deepika Padukone.



Shooting Breaks!



Producer Ashwani Dutt previously mentioned that 'Kalki 2' was expected to release around June or July next year, with 60% of the shooting already complete. However, the remaining shooting is facing delays due to Deepika Padukone. Currently, Deepika is pregnant and is expected to give birth in September. She has decided to take at least a year off from films after giving birth. As part of this, she has even let go of a much-loved project with Rohit Shetty and declined a prominent Bollywood show. This suggests that she might also be unavailable for shooting 'Kalki 2'.







Deepika is Crucial!



Deepika Padukone's role is pivotal to 'Kalki 2'. The second part is expected to revolve around her character. Director Nag Ashwin plans to resume 'Kalki 2' on the sets right after Sankranti, and hero Prabhas is eagerly waiting for this. If Deepika is unable to attend the shooting, it poses a significant challenge for the Kalki team, potentially leading to rescheduling the dates Prabhas had set aside for 'Kalki 2'. This unexpected development is creating new complications for Prabhas, leading to speculation that 'Kalki 2' might now be pushed to a 2026 release.







The Real Story in Part 2!



'Kalki 2898 AD' seems primarily to introduce the characters. Prabhas (as Bhairava), Deepika Padukone (as Sumathi), Amitabh Bachchan (as Ashwatthama), Kamal Haasan (as the villain Supreme Yashkin), and Vijay Deverakonda (as Arjuna) are central to the narrative of Kalki. The director, Nag Ashwin, set up the backgrounds and significance of each character in the first part, showing the hardships people face at the end of Kali Yuga and the villain Supreme Yashkin's tyranny. The conditions before the arrival of Kalki, the tenth avatar of Vishnu, were depicted in 'Part 1'. However, the hero Prabhas and the villain Supreme Yashkin did not come face to face in the first part. In 'Part 2', these two are expected to confront each other directly, making the second part more intriguing.







Kamal Haasan's Significant Role



Kamal Haasan’s role in the Kalki film lasts less than 15 minutes, offering the audience little opportunity to see his performance beyond two or three dialogues. Supreme Yashkin gains divine power by injecting himself with serum extracted from Sumathi (Deepika Padukone) while she is pregnant. His enhanced power is shown in the climax of 'Kalki'. This indicates that Kamal Haasan’s role will be fully realized in 'Kalki 2'. Speaking at a recent event, Kamal also confirmed that he would appear more extensively in 'Kalki 2'. Consequently, fans might get to see more of Kamal Haasan’s formidable acting as the plot progresses, with Prabhas (as Karna/Bhairava) and Amitabh Bachchan (as Ashwatthama) aiding the young Kalki in defeating Supreme Yashkin.







Who will Play Kalki?



According to mythology, Kalki, the avatar of Vishnu, ends the Kali Yuga. From the start of the shooting of Kalki, everyone assumed Prabhas would play Kalki. However, the director threw a curveball by portraying him as Karna. This makes it interesting to speculate who will appear as Kalki in the film. Since Kalki remains in Sumathi’s womb until the end of the first part, there is no chance for him to suddenly appear fully grown in 'Part 2'. Thus, there is a possibility that Kalki might be shown as a child. This child, aided by Prabhas (Karna/Bhairava) and Ashwatthama (Amitabh Bachchan), might be the one to vanquish Supreme Yashkin.






Kalki 2: New Challenges for Prabhas with Star Heroine.. 'Kalki 2' Seems Unlikely Soon!


Directed by Nag Ashwin and featuring Prabhas, the film 'Kalki 2898 AD' has successfully been screening in theaters for two weeks. It continues to perform well at the box office. Veteran actors Kamal Haasan and Amitabh Bachchan, along with young stars Vijay Deverakonda and Dulquer Salmaan in cameo roles, have enthralled audiences. Recently, there has been news regarding the OTT release of 'Kalki'. Rumors indicate that the movie will be available on two OTT platforms. Let's explore the details.



Two OTT Platforms.



'Kalki 2898 AD' has been warmly received in theaters. Despite its success on the big screen, many viewers are keen to watch it again on OTT. Consequently, there is considerable anticipation for the announcement of the OTT platform and the digital premiere date. Meanwhile, there are reports online that the film will be available on two OTT platforms. According to recent buzz, Amazon Prime and Netflix have acquired the OTT rights for 'Kalki'. Amazon Prime has obtained the rights for Telugu and other South Indian languages, while Netflix has secured the Hindi rights. This arrangement ensures that 'Kalki' will be streamed on both platforms.







When Will It Stream?



Information suggests that 'Kalki' will be available for OTT streaming 7 or 8 weeks after its theatrical release. Accordingly, there is speculation that the film will arrive on OTT platforms around August 15. Streaming services are considering releasing 'Kalki' as a special treat for Independence Day. Therefore, those looking forward to watching 'Kalki' on OTT might only have to wait another month. An official announcement is expected soon.







Has It Reached Rs. 1000 Crores?



On Monday (July 8), the production team of 'Kalki' officially announced that the film has grossed Rs. 900 crores globally. They noted that it is only Rs. 100 crores away from reaching the Rs. 1000 crore club. An official statement regarding 'Kalki's total collections is expected in a few days. The revenues from Monday and Tuesday still need to be added to the existing total of Rs. 900 crores. Trade experts predict that with these additional earnings, 'Kalki' will easily surpass the Rs. 1000 crore mark. An official announcement is anticipated soon.







Box Office Hit in Hindi too



'Kalki 2898 AD' is receiving tremendous admiration from Bollywood audiences. Prabhas's popularity in Bollywood, along with the film's Mahabharata-themed narrative, has attracted significant interest. Consequently, trade analysts expect that the Hindi version of 'Kalki' will hit the Rs. 200 crore mark today (July 10). Bollywood film analyst Taran Adarsh predicts that the film will reach a gross milestone of Rs. 225 crores today. He has posted about this achievement on his X account.
