The film 'Devara', a collaboration between NTR and Koratala Siva, is set for a worldwide release on September 27. As a pan-India film, the Devara team has been busy promoting it in Bollywood recently. They have also conducted an event in Tamil Nadu recently, building hype there as well. As the release date approaches, Tarak has been actively participating in the promotions without rest. In a recent interview, he made interesting comments about the film, heroine Janhvi Kapoor, and music sensation Anirudh Ravichander, which have now gone viral.



'Didn't Initially Consider Janhvi'



Janhvi Kapoor stars alongside Tarak in 'Devara'. This film marks her first introduction to the Telugu screen. However, Tarak revealed in a recent interview that Janhvi was not initially considered for the heroine role. While writing the story, there was no particular actress in mind for the role. At that time, Karan Johar called and said, 'Janhvi is a good actress. It would be good if we take her in our film,' recalled Tarak. "Even then, we didn't think about taking her immediately. But she strongly wished to be part of it. By the time the scriptwriting was completed, she had joined the team. She was very nervous about acting and the language at first, but performed well. Her acting surprised everyone," Tarak explained.







Inspired by RRR



The title of a film is very important, especially for a pan-India film, where it needs to connect with everyone at a national level. That's why there is a lot of homework done on titles for star hero films. Tarak shared in the recent interview that this was also the case with Devara. He also revealed the reasoning behind fixing the title 'Devara'. He had thought from the beginning that the film needed a title like 'RRR' that would resonate nationally. "That's how 'Devara' was finalized," he clarified. Tarak mentioned that 'Devara' means 'God'.







Anirudh on Par with Rahman



Anirudh Ravichander provided the sensational music for 'Devara'. Already, the songs "Fear", "Buttamalle", and "Daavudi" from this film have been trending nationally. In this context, Tarak showered praises on Anirudh, stating that his era is ongoing and lifted him to the skies. "Anirudh knows how essential music is for a film, and he is an amazing person. He works hard until he achieves the desired results," praised Tarak. He opined that Anirudh would reach the level of A.R. Rahman and expressed hope that he would compose for international films as well.







Devara as the First Indian Film at 'Beyond Fest'



Before its release, 'Devara' has already set several records and has now added a rare honor to its achievements. It is set to be the first Indian film to be showcased at the prestigious Beyond Fest 2024 in Los Angeles. No Indian film has been featured at Beyond Fest to date. This record will be exclusively Tarak's. The festival will take place from September 25 to October 9. On the other hand, 'Devara' also broke the North American presale ticket record, becoming the fastest Indian film to collect 1 million dollars through presales.






NTR's 'Devara': Inspired by RRR and Set for Historic Beyond Fest Debut


Icon Star Allu Arjun stars in the much-anticipated sequel, Pushpa 2, directed by Sukumar, with Rashmika Mandanna as the heroine. Following the pan-India success of the first part, expectations are sky-high for this sequel. The makers have officially announced that the film will be released on December 6. Recently, it has come to light that the pre-release business dealings for this film have been extraordinarily high.



A Rs. 1000 Crore Business!



Trade circles have announced that 'Pushpa 2' has already broken a massive record even before its release. The movie's pre-release business has reportedly amounted to Rs. 1065 crores. It’s revealed that the theatrical rights alone were sold for Rs. 640 crores. The theatrical rights in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana were sold for Rs. 220 crores. North India contributed Rs. 200 crores, Tamil Nadu Rs. 50 crores, Karnataka Rs. 30 crores, Kerala Rs. 20 crores, and overseas rights went for Rs. 120 crores. Additionally, digital rights were acquired by Netflix for Rs. 275 crores. Music rights reached Rs. 65 crores and satellite rights touched Rs. 85 crores, making the overall pre-release business surpass Rs. 1000 crores, as per trade reports.







Shattering 'RRR's Record!



The film 'RRR', directed by S.S. Rajamouli, starring Tarak and Ram Charan, did a pre-release business of Rs. 480 crores, with overall earnings including OTT, music, and television rights nearing Rs. 900 crores. However, Pushpa 2’s pre-release business figures clearly surpass 'RRR', making it evident that Allu Arjun's film has shattered previous records by a significant margin, achieving what no other Telugu star has managed before.







Shraddha Kapoor for the Item Song!



The songs from 'Pushpa' were a massive hit, especially the item song "Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava", which became a sensation across the country. Samantha's mesmerizing presence and the catchy choreography with Bunny won many hearts. Therefore, for 'Pushpa 2', director Sukumar is planning to include a similar item song. Recently, Bollywood beauty Shraddha Kapoor's name has surfaced as a potential candidate for this special song. The Pushpa team is reportedly in discussions with her, following other names like Tripti Dimri, Disha Patani, and Mrunal Thakur, who were also considered for the special song.







First Half Editing Complete



The shooting of 'Pushpa 2' is in its final stages, with climax scenes being shot at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. Music director Devi Sri Prasad recently announced that the editing of the first half of 'Pushpa 2' is complete. He praised the output and commended Allu Arjun for his captivating performance. Alongside Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, the film also stars Fahadh Faasil, Jagadeesh Prathap Bandari, Prakash Raj, Sunil, and Anasuya in pivotal roles. The film is produced by Mythri Movie Makers with music by Devi Sri Prasad.






Pushpa 2 Smashes Records with ₹1065 Crore Pre-Release Business – Set to Dethrone 'RRR'!


Directed by Koratala Siva and featuring Jr NTR as the hero, the film 'Devara: Part 1' is creating a storm at the box office. Despite being released 18 days ago, the film's momentum hasn't slowed down. It broke even in all areas shortly after release and continues to perform strongly. Even though there was some negative talk on the first day, it did not impact the collections. Having already set several records, the film recently achieved another milestone by surpassing the record set by Rajamouli’s 'RRR'. Moreover, it accomplished a feat that even global star Prabhas hasn’t achieved yet.



A New Chapter in Telugu Cinema!



The film 'Devara', starring Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor, has set another box office record. In 18 days since its release, it has consistently brought in more than a crore each day in AP and Telangana. This film has become the first Telugu film post-COVID to achieve such a feat, a record previously held by 'RRR' for 17 consecutive days of similar earnings. Now, Jr NTR's impact has broken that record. Reports suggest that even Prabhas' recent films (Radhe Shyam, Adipurush, Salaar, Kalki 2898 AD) did not achieve this milestone, highlighting Tarak’s strong pull at the box office.

How Much Did Devara Collect?



The film 'Devara' grossed ₹509 crores worldwide in just the first 16 days, as officially announced by the makers. Adding the collections of the last two days, it is expected to reach ₹520 crores. The combined gross for AP and Telangana has been ₹222.60 crores. Karnataka contributed ₹17.70 crores, Tamil Nadu ₹4.13 crores, Kerala ₹97 lakhs, and Hindi + Rest of India ₹33.55 crores. If the trend continues, reaching ₹550 crores seems easily feasible. It remains to be seen how far this film will go in the long run.







Has the Streaming Date Been Set?



Netflix has acquired the digital streaming rights to 'Devara' for a substantial amount. With 18 days past since the film’s theatrical release, everyone is eagerly awaiting its OTT release. The latest buzz suggests that 'Devara' might hit OTT as a Diwali treat. An official announcement is expected soon. If it doesn’t happen by Diwali, the release is likely in the second week of November. Netflix secured the rights for ₹150 crores, with a contract to stream the movie 50 days post-theatrical release.







'NTR 31' Loading!



Following the blockbuster success of 'Devara: Part 1', it is known that Jr NTR will collaborate with Prashanth Neel in the upcoming 'NTR 31'. Initially expected as a sequel, Prashanth Neel has decided to make 'NTR 31' a single part film, surprising everyone. Tarak will reportedly play a farmer from Bangladesh, with the entire story set against a Bangladeshi backdrop. The heroine has also been confirmed for this movie, with Kannada beauty Rukmini Vasanth set to star opposite Jr NTR. She is currently working with Nikhil in 'Appudo Ippudo Eppudo'.






'Devara' Sets a New Record, Surpassing 'RRR' at the Box Office – Jr NTR’s Reign Continues!


The latest film featuring the Man of the Masses, Tarak, titled 'Devara' has been released grandly today (September 27). Despite some mixed opinions, the film overall is being touted as a hit. The music by Anirudh is reportedly next level. Having shattered several records even before its release, the film is expected to achieve even more milestones, with fans confident about its success. Interestingly, it's said that Tarak has broken a flop record of Rajamouli that has been ongoing for 23 years, declared by none other than Rajamouli's son.



Rajamouli’s Flop Sentiment!



It’s a well-known fact that a film with director Rajamouli is a blockbuster. However, post a Rajamouli film, no hero until now has managed an immediate hit. Every hero has faced a box office disaster following their film with Rajamouli, a sentiment that started 23 years ago with Rajamouli’s first film 'Student No.1'. Following 'Student No.1' and 'Simhadri', Tarak faced major failures. Similarly, post 'Vikramarkudu' Ravi Teja, post 'Maryada Ramanna' Sunil, and post 'Eega' Nani all faced flops. After 'Baahubali 2', Prabhas, Rana, and Anushka also failed in their subsequent films. Naturally, there were apprehensions about 'Devara' following 'RRR' with Tarak.







Breaking the 23-Year Record



The flop sentiment with Rajamouli started with Tarak on September 27, 2001, with the release of 'Student No.1'. 23 years later, on the same day, 'Devara' was released and has garnered hit talk, thus ending the flop cycle that started on the same day with the same person 23 years ago. This has sparked a flurry of comments on social media that Tarak has shattered the bad sentiment linked with Rajamouli. Now, fans believe that no hero needs to worry about the Rajamouli flop sentiment anymore.







Karthikeya’s Special Post



Karthikeya, Rajamouli's son, also tweeted about this, "Finally, the 23-year myth has been broken. It ended on the same day it began with the same person. I grew up watching him closely, seeing his growth and success. Now I see the wonders he's performing. I am speechless at the contribution he’s making to Telugu cinema. This is a big gift he has given to the fans. Devara is the biggest mass celebration in cinema. Now, even the madness speaks. All hail the tiger," along with a photo taken with NTR.

Rajamouli Watching Devara with Fans



The buzz around 'Devara' is evident across theaters in the Telugu states. After nearly six years, NTR's solo movie has his fans ecstatic. Amid this festive atmosphere, Rajamouli watched the film. Accompanied by his family, he greeted movie enthusiasts at the Maithri Vimal theater in Balanagar and watched the film with them. Videos related to this are going viral online. Producer Dil Raju and director Anil Ravipudi watched the movie at Sriramulu theater. Meanwhile, in a theater in Chennai, music director Anirudh watched the movie with fans and charged up the atmosphere by singing the Fear song.

'Devara’ Breaks the 23-Year Rajamouli Sentiment: NTR’s Film Triumphs After RRR


Director SS Rajamouli, who elevated Indian cinema to a global level and became the country's top director with 'Baahubali,' gained worldwide popularity with the film 'RRR.' The song "Naatu Naatu" from this film even won an Oscar, garnering accolades from all corners of the country. Currently, Rajamouli is busy launching a global-scale film 'SSMB29' with Mahesh Babu. Amidst this, an intriguing piece of news about Rajamouli has surfaced. It is known that he initially considered making a film with Kollywood stars Suriya and his brother Karthi, and it was rumored to be 'RRR.' Let's look into the details of this.



'They Narrated the Story... It Didn’t Work Out'



Tamil star Karthi recently made interesting remarks in an interview. During the promotions for his next movie 'Satyam Sundaram,' Karthi, in an interview with director Gautham Menon, shared an intriguing past discussion. When Menon asked about acting alongside Suriya, Karthi revealed, "Suriya and I will act together if we get the right script. In the past, Director Rajamouli sir narrated a story to us. It was good but that movie didn’t work out." This revelation has surprised movie lovers, prompting questions about how they could pass up a Rajamouli story. There is speculation that had that movie been made, Suriya and Karthi’s stardom might have seen a different trajectory.

The Story of 'RRR'?



Netizens speculate that the movie Rajamouli planned with Suriya and Karthi might have been 'RRR.' They assume that initially, Rajamouli envisioned Suriya and Karthi in the roles later played by Ram Charan and Tarak. For various reasons, that version never progressed to filming. Telugu audiences believe that if Karthi and Suriya had starred in 'RRR,' it might not have achieved the same level of success. They note that while the action and drama of 'RRR' are highlights, the dance sequences also stood out, an area where Suriya and Karthi might have lagged behind Charan and Tarak.







Karthi as a Contender to Tarak!



Karthi's latest film 'Satyam Sundari' is ready for release, where he stars alongside prominent actor Aravind Swamy. The film, directed by Prem Kumar C., who delivered the blockbuster '96,' is set to release worldwide on September 28. A teaser of the film was recently released and has captured attention. Karthi has also announced his next project, which will be produced under the banner of Dream Warrior Pictures as 'Karthi 29.' Details about the rest of the cast and technical team are expected to be released soon.







'SSMB 29' Shooting in December!



Ever since Rajamouli announced a film with Mahesh Babu, everyone has been eagerly waiting to see when the film will go on floors. In this context, there is news that an official update related to SSMB29 will be given on Rajamouli's birthday. Regular shooting for the film is set to begin in December, with the first schedule starting in Germany. The film, set against an 18th-century backdrop featuring rare tribal communities, is creating strong buzz. An official announcement regarding this is expected soon.






SS Rajamouli's Unmade Film with Suriya and Karthi: A Missed Opportunity Before 'RRR'?


Among the directors who have brought Indian cinema to an international stage, S.S. Rajamouli stands out distinctly. His films, such as 'Baahubali' and 'RRR', have greatly captivated audiences and garnered international acclaim. Notably, 'RRR' has won multiple global awards, including an Oscar. Even the acclaimed Hollywood director James Cameron has praised Rajamouli’s work. Recently, the Oscar committee extended an invitation to him as well. In recognition of these achievements, an upcoming documentary about Rajamouli will be streamed on the major OTT platform, Netflix.



Titled 'Modern Masters'...



Netflix, a prominent OTT platform, has announced the development of a documentary about director Rajamouli and has released a poster for it. Titled 'Modern Masters,' the documentary delves into the effort and time it took this legendary director to achieve his fame. 'Modern Masters' is scheduled to begin streaming on Netflix starting August 2nd. The documentary is presented by Anupama Chopra.

Comments from Star Celebrities!



The documentary 'Modern Masters' will feature various star celebrities discussing Rajamouli's greatness. There is buzz that Hollywood stalwarts like James Cameron and Joe Russo will speak about Rajamouli's directorial skills. Additionally, prominent Tollywood and Bollywood actors such as Prabhas, Rana, Junior NTR, and Ram Charan are expected to share their opinions. However, it remains to be seen whether the documentary will cover Rajamouli's entire career or focus primarily on 'Baahubali' and 'RRR'. Clarity on this is expected by August 2.







Rajamouli to the Oscar Committee!



Director Rajamouli recently received an invitation from the Oscar Academy. He was honored in the directors category, while Rama Rajamouli received recognition in the costume designer category. This year, the Academy extended invitations to 487 members from 57 countries, including several other notable figures from the Indian film industry, such as Shabana Azmi, Ritesh Sidhwani, and Ravi Varman.







Busy with 'SSMB29'...!



Following 'RRR', Rajamouli is set to direct his next movie with Mahesh Babu, rumored to be the highest-budget film in Indian movie history. The casting for this film is yet to be finalized. Rajamouli has announced that the film, set against an African backdrop as an adventure thriller, has recently had its storyline finalized. There is talk that Mahesh Babu will be presented in a never-before-seen avatar in this film. Rajamouli plans to produce this cinema on a pan-world scale with top global technicians.






S.S. Rajamouli: The Visionary Behind 'Baahubali' and 'RRR' Celebrated in Netflix Documentary


The film 'Kalki 2898 AD,' directed by Nag Ashwin and starring pan-India star Prabhas, was released worldwide on Thursday, June 27th, and is receiving rave reviews everywhere. With the positive talk coming from all sides, audiences are showing great enthusiasm for this movie. As 'Kalki' becomes a super hit, everyone's attention is now focused on its first-day collections. The film, a visual wonder in the mythology-futuristic genre, was estimated by trade circles to collect over ₹200 crores on its first day. Did 'Kalki' reach that mark? How did Prabhas' mania impact the box office? What all-time record did 'Kalki' create in the US? Let's find out in this review.



Day 1 Collections



All eyes are currently on the Day 1 collections of 'Kalki 2898 AD.' The production house, Vyjayanthi Movies, has officially announced the first day's earnings. The makers declared that 'Kalki' amassed ₹191.5 crores (GROSS) worldwide on its first day. They also released a special poster with the caption "Let's Celebrate Cinema." Initially, trade circles had predicted that 'Kalki' would collect over ₹200 crores on its first day, with analyses suggesting that all previous Day 1 records would be broken. However, 'Kalki' narrowly missed the ₹200 crore mark. Despite this, industry experts predict that 'Kalki' will surely join the ₹500 crore club by the end of this weekend.







All-Time Record



Prabhas' 'Kalki' is creating a sensation in North America. The local audience is impressed by the performances of Prabhas and other top stars. Consequently, 'Kalki' set an all-time record in North America. It garnered a whopping $3.8 million from North American premieres, the highest collection for an Indian film in that region. 'Kalki' has thus achieved the distinction of being the first Indian film to earn this much. Following 'Kalki' are 'RRR' ($3.46 million), 'Salaar' ($2.6 million), and 'Baahubali 2' ($2.45 million).







Overseas Collections



Combining premieres and first-day collections, trade circles report that 'Kalki' collected $5 million on its first day in America. Among Telugu films, 'Kalki' secured the 5th position for the highest collections in just one day. It also set a record as the fastest film to collect $5 million. If these collections continue, 'Kalki' is expected to set a benchmark overseas. Experts predict that the collections will increase further over the weekend.







'RRR' Record Safe!



According to trade figures, 'Kalki 2898 AD' could not surpass the 'RRR' record. 'RRR' collected ₹223 crores (GROSS) on its first day, making it the top Indian film in terms of Day 1 collections. As per trade estimates, 'Kalki 2898 AD' halted at ₹180 crores, leaving the 'RRR' record intact. 'Baahubali 2' stands in second place with ₹217 crores. While 'Kalki' couldn't break these records, it surpassed the records of 'KGF 2' (₹164.5 crores), 'Salaar' (₹158 crores), 'Adipurush' (₹136.8 crores), and 'Saaho' (₹125.6 crores) to secure a place in the top three.







Match Effect on Collections



The 'Kalki 2898 AD' team lagged in promoting the film on a grand scale like 'Baahubali 2' and 'RRR.' If they had done extensive promotions, the movie might have created new records. The T20 World Cup also affected the film's collections. The audience's interest in watching the India-England semi-final match on Thursday evening turned into a slight disadvantage. Additionally, Thursday being a working day impacted 'Kalki's' collections. However, with positive talk everywhere, the collections of 'Kalki' are expected to increase significantly over the weekend.

Kalki 2898 AD Day 1 Collections: Increased Ticket Prices still missed to beat RRR.


Following 'RRR', the highly anticipated film 'Game Changer' starring Ram Charan, directed by renowned director Shankar and produced by Telugu producer Dil Raju, is set to be a political action entertainer scheduled to release as a festive gift on January 10. As the release date approaches, the film's team is focusing on promotions, including locking in the date for the teaser release. It has been announced that the teaser will be released in Uttar Pradesh. Despite having two Telugu states, why is the teaser launch event planned in the North? It seems there is a master plan behind this decision.



When is the teaser?



In the upcoming film 'Game Changer,' Bollywood beauty Kiara Advani stars as the heroine alongside another heroine, Anjali, who plays a significant role. The film features Naveen Chandra, Sunil, Srikanth, Bollywood actor Harry Josh, Kollywood actors SJ Suryah, Samuthirakani, and Kannada actor Jayaram in key roles. Karthik Subbaraj provides the story, and Sai Madhav Burra delivers the dialogues. Recently, the movie team has fixed the teaser release for November 9th and announced that the launch event will take place in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.







Why in Lucknow?



Initially, the 'Game Changer' teaser launch event was planned to be held in Hyderabad. However, due to local conditions and permissions, the venue was shifted to Lucknow. Given the film's pan-India release, nationwide promotions are deemed crucial. The movie team believes that starting the official promotions in the North could enhance accessibility and engagement with the audience there. Moreover, starting from the teaser release, the team plans to keep the buzz alive by releasing updates every two weeks. Ram Charan is performing dual roles, and it remains to be seen if the teaser will reveal the looks of these two characters.







The First of its Kind!



Tamil cinema's leading director, Shankar, has directed numerous blockbuster hits such as 'Gentleman', 'Premikudu', 'Bharateeyudu', 'Jeans', 'Oke Okkadu', 'Boys', 'Aparichitudu', 'Sivaji', and 'Robo', which were all popular in Telugu through dubbing. 'Game Changer' marks Shankar’s first direct Telugu film, and it is also his first collaboration with Ram Charan. Known for making films with strong messages, Shankar has crafted 'Game Changer' in the same vein, and it appears the teaser has been cut to introduce its theme. It will be interesting to see how much the teaser excites the audience.







A Highlight for the Film!



Recently, the 'Game Changer' team released a special poster hinting at an upcoming teaser. It sparked interest with an image of Charan sitting at a table with numerous gangsters charging towards him, suggesting it's the film’s introduction scene. Rumors suggest this mob fight will give viewers goosebumps similar to 'RRR' and is expected to be a major highlight of the film. After the fight, Charan reportedly boards a helicopter, followed by the song 'Ra Macha Macha.'







Record Business?



Trade circles predict 'Game Changer' will do substantial business in the Telugu states, with potential theatrical business around ₹150 crores from Andhra Pradesh, Ceded, and Nizam areas. Originally, such high business figures were not anticipated when the film was scheduled for a December release. However, with the release now set for Sankranthi, the business expectations have significantly increased, according to film circles.

Why Was the Veena Step Hidden?



Even though Ram Charan appears in classic looks in the 'Raa Macha Macha' song, his steps feel entirely massy. The 'Veena Step', a memorable moment in Chiranjeevi’s career, performed by Ram Charan in this song, is expected to be a highlight. It seems clear that this step, specifically performed by Charan with the intention of showcasing it directly in theatres, has not been revealed yet. Fans are highly excited to see how Charan performed it, predicting that if the song clicks, theatres will indeed be packed.







Uncertainty Over the Release Date



Despite the producer Dil Raju giving clarity that 'Game Changer' will be released on December 25, there remains uncertainty among fans about the exact release date. At a previous event, Dil Raju announced the release for December 20, but it has now been pushed five days later. Fans are puzzled over which of the two dates to believe.







Ram Charan's Future Projects



It is known that Ram Charan and Tamil director Shankar are collaborating on 'Game Changer', which is strongly buzzed to be a Christmas release. Following this, Ram Charan is set to act under the direction of 'Uppena' fame Buchi Babu in a project tentatively titled 'RC16', which will soon go on floors. After this movie, he is scheduled to work with director Sukumar. An official announcement regarding this project has already been made. The film with Sukumar is set to start after the release of 'Pushpa 2'.

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 &amp; Co are also contemplating a similar strategy. With Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 'Vishwambhara' locked for Sankranti 2025, and other major films like Venkatesh-Anil Ravipudi's film, Ajith's 'Good Bad Ugly', and 'Shatamanam Bhavati 2' also likely to compete, a Christmas release would enable Ram Charan to make a significant impact at the box office, just like Prabhas.







Director Shankar's High Hopes!



Director Shankar's recent release 'Bharateeyudu 2' was met with severe disappointment, with netizens commenting that it did not feel like a typical Shankar film. His previous films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office. Therefore, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar to return to the path of success. Producer Dil Raju is also hoping to recover from the disappointment of his last film 'Family Star,' starring Vijay Deverakonda, which was a significant failure at the box office. Currently, both the director and producer are pinning their hopes on the success of the Charan movie.






'Game Changer' Release Date Locked announcement on Vinayaka Chavithi?


Following the blockbuster 'RRR', Ram Charan is starring in 'Game Changer', a political drama directed by Tamil cinema's renowned director Shankar and produced by Tollywood's notable producer, Dil Raju. Recently, Dil Raju hinted at a Christmas release, which had mega fans celebrating. However, new issues have surfaced that could potentially delay the film's release this year.



What's the Reason?



There's strong buzz that 'Game Changer', starring mega power star Ram Charan, might not release this year as planned. Although initially set for a Christmas release, it's now uncertain due to incomplete shooting. It's reported that more than 15 days of shooting are still pending, and director Shankar is still scouting for new locations. This could mean more time is needed to finish the shooting, followed by post-production and dubbing, possibly pushing the release past December.







2024 Summer Release?



The 'Game Changer' film, a collaboration between Ram Charan and Shankar, might move from December to the summer of 2025. Even though there's a chance for a Sankranti release if December is missed, several films are already slated for the Pongal competition. The makers of megastar Chiranjeevi’s ‘Vishwambhara’ have announced a Sankranti release. Similarly, films starring Venkatesh and Anil Ravipudi, and Ajith’s ‘Good Bad Ugly’, and ‘Shatamanam Bhavati 2’ are also aiming for the same festive release. In this context, it seems unwise for the 'Game Changer' team to join the race. Given the exam season in February and March, cinema pundits are speculating a possible release during the summer holidays.







High Hopes on Game Changer!



Director Shankar’s recent release 'Indian 2' disappointed audiences, failing to meet expectations and earning criticism online. His previous films such as 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office. Therefore, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar to regain his successful track. Producer Dil Raju is also counting on this film to recover from the financial losses incurred from Vijay Deverakonda's 'Family Star', which flopped at the box office. Currently, both the director and producer are heavily reliant on the success of this Charan movie.







Kiara’s Poster Hits the Mark!



In 'Game Changer', Bollywood beauty Kiara Advani stars as the female lead. Recently, on her birthday, the film team released a special poster where Kiara looks stunning in a multi-colored lehenga. This look is from the movie's first single, 'Jaragandi Jaragandi'. In addition to Charan and Kiara, S.J. Surya, Anjali, Srikanth, Nazar, Naveen Chandra, and Samuthirakani play significant roles in the film.&nbsp;






Game Changer: Mega Fans in Tension.. 'Game Changer' Not Releasing This Year?


Following the success of 'RRR', Jr NTR’s fame has reached global proportions, even earning him a substantial fan following in Bollywood. Currently, Tarak is featured in the movie 'Devara', directed by Koratala Siva, which is swiftly moving through its shooting phase. After this film, Tarak has confirmed his participation in the 'NTR 31' project. Directed by Prashanth Neel, known for blockbuster hits like 'KGF' and 'Salaar', this upcoming movie has already stirred high expectations. Recently, an exciting update about NTR’s role in this movie emerged, causing quite a stir in the industry.



Tarak in a Dual Role?



The upcoming 'NTR 31' project, a collaboration between Tarak and Prashanth Neel, is creating a buzz in Tollywood. According to the latest buzz, Tarak will be playing dual roles in this film. One of these roles is reportedly as a 75-year-old man, a character unlike any he has played in his career. The other role is rumored to be that of a mafia don, sparking much excitement. The film, to be produced by Mythri Movie Makers, is likely to start shooting in September, with an official announcement expected soon. Currently, Prashanth Neel is busy with pre-production work.







As a Fierce Demon...



Reports have previously suggested that Tarak will portray characters with negative shades in 'NTR 31'. The latest buzz indicates that one of these characters will be a mafia don, where he will appear as a fierce demon. The character has been uniquely designed by director Prashanth Neel, who is taking great care in its portrayal. It is known that after completing this movie, Neel plans to start 'Salaar 2'.







The Dragon Title Fixed!



The title 'Dragon' is under consideration for NTR 31, and there is a high chance that it might be finalized. In European languages, "Dragon" symbolizes evil and also represents chaos and the ability to breathe fire. Given its powerful connotation, Prashanth Neel is considering this title, especially as Tarak is set to appear in a powerful negative role, making 'Dragon' a fitting match. An official announcement regarding the title decision is expected very soon.







With a Budget of Rs. 300 Crores...



The forthcoming NTR 31 film, featuring the combo of Tarak and Prashanth Neel, is set to be made with a massive budget. The production cost is expected to exceed Rs. 300 crores, with Tarak likely to receive a significant remuneration. Rashmika Mandanna is rumored to be starring opposite Tarak, and other cast members are to be finalized shortly.







When is 'Devara' Releasing?



The highly anticipated pan-India project 'Devara' is set to release grandly on September 27. This film marks another collaboration between Tarak and Koratala Siva following 'Janatha Garage', raising substantial expectations among the audience. Jhanvi Kapoor stars opposite NTR, marking her entry into Telugu cinema. Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan will appear as the villain. Initially scheduled for an October 10 release, the rapid progress of work has moved the release date forward to September 27, as confirmed by the film unit.






'NTR 31': Jr NTR's Explosive Dual Role Ignites Anticipation in Tollywood

Recently, 'RRR' showed its dominance once more at the '68th Filmfare Awards South 2023, securing a total of seven awards.

After the massive blockbuster success of 'RRR', director SS Rajamouli has grabbed everyone’s attention by announcing his next film with superstar Mahesh Babu. The anticipation is high for when this exciting combination will kick off. Recent updates have thrilled fans, with leaked photos showcasing Mahesh Babu's look for the film causing quite a stir. Currently, Rajamouli is busy with the pre-production activities of the movie, and a photo he shared has gone viral on the internet.



Rajamouli in the Midst of Location Scouting

In this context, a recent photo shared by Rajamouli, showing him in a desert area, has gone viral. He captioned it, "Roaming to discover," indicating his search for locations for Mahesh’s movie. Fans are eagerly awaiting more updates.

Has the Location Been Confirmed?



Director Rajamouli is currently in Africa. He and his son Karthikeya are exploring the national parks in Kenya, searching for forest regions and areas where animals are prevalent. The latest photo shared by Rajamouli was also taken there. Alongside, a video has also gone viral showing Rajamouli traveling in a safari vehicle, inspecting locations in the national park. Given the movie’s backdrop set in Amazonian forests, part of it will likely be shot in Kenya’s national parks.

Utilization of AI Technology!



For the global project 'SSMB 29', Rajamouli is set to use AI technology, for which special training has been undertaken. Some characters and animals in the movie will be developed using AI technology. Rajamouli’s films are known for their extensive use of VFX, and with AI integration, these effects are expected to double in this film. Several international actors will appear in the movie, which will be dubbed in foreign languages as well as Indian languages. The movie is rumored to have a budget of about Rs. 1000 crores.

'Copying is Not Wrong'



Rajamouli, who has brought great fame to Telugu cinema globally, often faces criticism with every film release. There are claims on the internet that Rajamouli copies scenes from Hollywood movies. Videos purportedly proving this point trend on social media. Rajamouli has responded to these claims, acknowledging that he does draw inspiration from Hollywood films. "Since childhood, we've been influenced by Hollywood films. I always wondered why our films couldn’t reach that level. Every time they say we copied, we did it better than the original, and no one is harmed. If I copied from a Tamil or Malayalam film, it would affect those writers and directors, so I don’t see taking inspiration from Hollywood as wrong," he defended.




https://twitter.com/i/status/1565532933183930368




Is the Story Based on Those Novels?



Rajamouli’s father, star writer Vijayendra Prasad, is providing the story for 'SSMB29.' There are rumors that the team has bought the rights to two African novels by Wilbur Smith, considering the movie's setting in African forests. This has led to speculation that Rajamouli's project will be based on these novels. The film unit needs to clarify the truths about this.

Rajamouli Scouts Kenyan Landscapes for Mahesh Babu’s Next Epic: #SSMB29


Following the massive success of 'RRR', Ram Charan is starring in the highly anticipated film 'Game Changer', directed by Tamil cinema's renowned Director Shankar. This political action thriller, produced by prominent Tollywood producer Dil Raju, has generated significant buzz among the audience. As fans eagerly await its release, let's dive into some recent updates, including a shocking piece of news circulating online.



Ram Charan Says No!



There's a strong buzz that 'Game Changer' is set to release this December. Having completed the shooting recently, Ram Charan has shifted his focus to his next project under director Buchi Babu's 'RC16', for which he has grown out his hair and bulked up. However, it's reported that Director Shankar is dissatisfied with certain scenes from 'Game Changer' and wants them reshot. Producer Dil Raju is said to have communicated this to Ram Charan, who has reportedly refused. Ram Charan believes that changing back to the 'Game Changer' look would delay the shooting of 'RC16', which already has scheduled dates, making it difficult to adjust.







Dissatisfaction with Shankar!



'Game Changer' is Ram Charan's prestigious project post-'RRR', to which he has dedicated considerable time. However, Director Shankar has been simultaneously directing 'Indian 2', which has caused multiple breaks in the shooting schedule of 'Game Changer'. At one point, Shankar completely halted 'Game Changer', leading to a two-month shooting delay. This repeated disruption has reportedly frustrated Ram Charan. Now that the film's shooting is complete, the idea of reshooting does not sit well with him, especially after dedicating two years to the project. The industry buzz is that Ram Charan's refusal is also due to his commitment to 'RC16'.







The Second Single is Coming!



'Mega' expectations surround the 'Game Changer' film. Any minor update about this movie instantly goes viral online. The makers have officially announced the release of the second single from the movie. On September 28th, the promo for the second song 'Ra Macha Macha' will be released, expected to be a solid mass beat by musical sensation Thaman. The first song 'Jaragandi Jaragandi' from 'Game Changer' was a sensation, which adds to the excitement.




https://twitter.com/GameChangerOffl/status/1838889991860060639




All Eyes on 'Game Changer'!



Director Shankar's recent release 'Indian 2' underwhelmed the audience, leading to significant online criticism that it didn't feel like a typical Shankar film. His previous films like 'Robot 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehitudu' also underperformed at the box office. Thus, 'Game Changer' has become critical for Shankar to regain his successful track. Producer Dil Raju also faces pressure as his last film 'Family Star', featuring Vijay Deverakonda, flopped dramatically at the box office, incurring heavy losses. The industry is now abuzz with hopes that 'Game Changer' will overturn the recent failures. Both the director and producer are pinning their hopes on the success of this Ram Charan movie.






Ram Charan Rejects Reshoots for 'Game Changer' Amid Shankar's Demands?


After achieving a massive blockbuster with 'RRR', director SS Rajamouli has captured everyone's attention by announcing his next film with superstar Mahesh Babu. The entire film industry is eagerly awaiting the start of this exciting combination. Currently, Rajamouli is busy with the pre-production work of the film. However, it is learned that he will be working differently for 'SSMB29' compared to his previous films. Let’s find out what decision Rajamouli has taken this time.



Rajamouli’s Master Plan!



For the upcoming 'SSMB29' starring Mahesh Babu, director Rajamouli has decided to proceed with a new strategy. Generally, Rajamouli’s movies have extensive scope for VFX, which means equal importance must be given to shooting and graphics work. To address this, the director has devised a master plan. He plans to shoot the VFX-related scenes in advance. Accordingly, pre-production work is underway to ensure these scenes are ready to be handed over to the VFX teams early. This strategy allows for simultaneous completion of VFX work and shooting, potentially speeding up the entire filmmaking process and thrilling the fans.







Addressing the Criticisms



SS Rajamouli, one of the most esteemed directors in the country, has faced recent criticism for the lengthy durations it takes to release his films, often three to four years. To counter this, it's known that Rajamouli has made strategic decisions regarding VFX work. With such planning, it is expected that the film could be released within one or two years. It is anticipated that 'SSMB 29', even if it starts filming next year, could be released by the end of 2026.







Following the Paths of 'RRR' and 'Baahubali'



Like his period dramas 'Baahubali' and 'RRR', Rajamouli is reportedly preparing a similar epic narrative for Mahesh Babu. There is strong buzz that this movie will be set in the 18th century and is an ambitious attempt to recreate a story from 225 years ago. Rajamouli plans to authentically portray the tribal looks of hundreds of years ago for the cast. Producer KL Narayana is expected to fund this grand venture with a budget of Rs. 1000 crores, and Hollywood technicians are being hired to meet the production's high standards.







Inspiration for the Story



The Mahesh Babu-Rajamouli film is rumored to be an adventure thriller set against an African backdrop. In a recent interview, Rajamouli's father and renowned writer Vijayendra Prasad mentioned that they both are huge fans of South African novelist Wilbur Smith, which inspired him to base the screenplay on Smith's books. However, he assures that the screenplay will bear Rajamouli's signature style. MM Keeravani is set to compose the music for the film.






SS Rajamouli's Next Epic with Mahesh Babu: A Grand Adventure Awaits with 'SSMB29'


After the global success of "RRR," Jr. NTR's upcoming film "Devara: Part 1" directed by Koratala Siva is generating huge expectations. The film features Bollywood beauty Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine and veteran actor Saif Ali Khan as the antagonist, creating significant buzz. With shooting completed, the film is currently in the post-production stage. Jr. NTR playing a dual role has sparked curiosity among fans and cinema lovers about the storyline of "Devara." Recently, a sensational piece of news has been stirring up the internet related to "Devara's" storyline, which is reportedly based on a real incident that once shook unified Andhra Pradesh. What is this incident? What's the story of Devara? Let's find out.



Is This the Story of Devara?



It is believed that director Koratala Siva has based the story of "Devara" on some real-life events. According to the latest buzz, the movie reflects on a brutal massacre of Dalits that took place in the past. The film is said to depict the tragic incident of Karamchedu, where many Dalits were killed by upper castes in 1985 in Karamchedu village of Andhra Pradesh. Reliable sources suggest that Koratala Siva plans to showcase this real-life incident in "Devara," increasing the anticipation for the film. Currently, the movie team has not clarified the ongoing speculations on social media.







Will It Embroil TDP?



During the Karamchedu incident in 1985, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao was the Chief Minister of unified Andhra Pradesh. Although he introduced several new laws for Dalits after the incident, it remained a permanent stain on his government. Even years later, the scars of that bloodshed still haunt the TDP government, which is currently in power again in AP. If "Devara" brings this issue back into the spotlight, it could potentially put Chandrababu Naidu's leadership and TDP in a tough spot, especially considering the ongoing speculations of internal conflicts between the TDP and Balakrishna, Jr. NTR’s relationship. If the movie portrays the Karamchedu incident, it could further widen the rift.







A Social Message is Essential!



Koratala Siva is one of the directors in Telugu cinema known for incorporating a social message or touching on social issues in every film. From addressing factionalism in "Mirchi," adoption of villages in "Srimanthudu," supporting the underprivileged in "Janatha Garage," responsible politics in "Bharat Ane Nenu," to showcasing the Naxalite movement in "Acharya," his films consistently reflect deeper social concerns. It's quite possible that "Devara" will include scenes related to the tragic events of Karamchedu, as discussed within industry circles.







The Third Song is Coming!



The third song from "Devara" is set to be released on September 4th. The movie team has officially announced this through a poster. The duet titled "Davudi" promises to be a mesmerizing track, with every beat designed to make you whistle. The latest poster features Tarak in a black outfit and Janhvi captivating in white, as she romantically grabs him from behind. The dance steps by Jr. NTR in this song is expected to be spectacular.

Jr. NTR's Generous Heart



In response to ongoing flood relief efforts in the Telugu states, Jr. NTR has stepped forward to donate Rs. 50 lakhs each to the governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. This announcement was made via X platform shortly after which, young actor Vishwaksen also contributed Rs. 5 lakhs to each state, marking their solidarity during tough times. Netizens have been pouring praise on both heroes for their support during this crisis.

Devara: Is it a Real-Life Tale That Could Stir Political Waters for TDP?


Following the blockbuster success of 'RRR', Mega Power Star Ram Charan is set to appear in 'Game Changer', directed by renowned Tamil cinema director Shankar. This film has generated high expectations among audiences, including Mega fans and regular moviegoers alike. Recently, the film's producer, Dil Raju, sparked further excitement by making intriguing remarks and hinting at the release date for 'Game Changer', leading to a flurry of eager posts from fans about the confirmed release date.



Is It Releasing on That Day?



Produced by the prominent producer Dil Raju, 'Game Changer' is being crafted as a political action thriller. At the recent pre-release event of 'Raayan', Dil Raju responded about the release of 'Game Changer', hinting at a Christmas release. This suggests that 'Game Changer' might hit the screens on December 25 as a Christmas gift. It marks the 50th film produced under the Sri Venkateswara Creations banner, making it a prestigious project for Dil Raju. The editing work for this movie is currently underway.

Ram Charan in Prabhas' Path!



It appears that Mega Hero Ram Charan is emulating Pan India Star Prabhas. Last year, Prabhas starred in 'Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire,' which was released as a Christmas gift and became a blockbuster, grossing Rs. 700 crores worldwide on December 22, 2023. The decision to release during Christmas was strategic, aimed at avoiding competition with major stars like Mahesh Babu, Nagarjuna, and Venkatesh, who had films lined up for the Sankranti festival in January 2024. Similarly, Ram Charan and his team are considering a solo Christmas release to ensure strong box office returns without facing competition from other big names. For Sankranti 2025, Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 'Vishwambhara' has been scheduled, and films like Venkatesh’s new project with Anil Ravipudi and Ajith’s 'Good Bad Ugly', as well as 'Shatamanam Bhavati 2' are also expected to release. Thus, releasing 'Game Changer' as a Christmas gift could potentially replicate the box office impact seen with 'Salaar.'







High Hopes for Game Changer!



Following the disappointment of Shankar's recent release 'Bharateeyudu 2', which failed to meet audience expectations and was widely criticized online, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar's return to success. Shankar's previous films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office, adding to the pressure. Dil Raju, too, is looking to rebound from the significant losses incurred from Vijay Deverakonda's 'Family Star', which was a box office disaster. The industry is abuzz with talk that 'Game Changer' will be a significant turnaround for both the director and the producer. All hopes for success are now pinned on this Ram Charan movie.







Is This the Story?



A leading OTT platform, Amazon Prime, has already revealed the storyline of 'Game Changer'. Announcing its upcoming films on their platform, Amazon Prime unveiled the plot of 'Game Changer', which revolves around an honest IAS officer fighting political corruption. Reports suggest that Charan will be seen in dual roles as father and son. Kiara Advani is starring opposite Ram Charan. Other significant roles are played by Srikanth, Sunil, Naveen Chandra, Jayaram, Samuthirakani, and Anjali. S. S. Thaman is providing the music for this film.

Game Changer: Is the Release Date for 'Game Changer' Set? Ram Charan Follows in Prabhas' Footsteps!


Mega Power Star Ram Charan has risen to global stardom following the success of 'RRR', garnering a worldwide fan following. However, an ongoing issue from the beginning of his career has been haunting him, which he hasn't been able to resolve despite multiple attempts. This has left even the mega fans dissatisfied. Now, Ram Charan is devising new plans to tackle this problem and is known to have made a crucial decision in this direction, which has immensely pleased the mega fans. What is this issue? And what decision has Cherry taken regarding it? Let's find out in this story.



Two Films on the Sets!



It has been 17 years since Mega Power Star Ram Charan, son of Chiranjeevi, stepped into the industry, but he has only done 13 films so far. There has been criticism that Charan takes longer gaps between films compared to other stars, and his attempts to change this pattern have not worked out. Hence, he has decided to put a definitive check on this issue. He plans to make two films per year going forward. As part of this, even before the release of 'Game Changer', Charan has announced the RC16 project with director Buchi Babu. The movie is currently busy in pre-production. Along with this film, he is also planning to do another movie directed by Sukumar. Ram Charan aims to launch both projects simultaneously and aims to release them before 2026, much to the delight of the mega fans.







Is He Following Prabhas?



Like Prabhas, who has recently been more dynamic with his projects than before, opting to launch multiple projects simultaneously rather than one at a time, Ram Charan seems to be following in his footsteps. Prabhas is currently working with director Maruthi on a film titled 'Raja Saab' and has also recently launched a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi. By November, he plans to bring 'Spirit' directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga to the sets. Through this approach, he intends to participate in the shootings of these three films simultaneously and release each within a year. Additionally, there's a chance for 'Salaar 2' and 'Kalki 2' to hit the floors next year.







Ram Charan as the Chief Guest



Global star Ram Charan is set to attend the South Indian cinema festival 'IIFA Utsavam 2024'. The event will take place at the Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi on September 27. The organizers of the International Indian Film Academy Awards have revealed that Ram Charan will be participating in this awards ceremony. Alongside Charan, several other prominent figures from South Indian cinema are expected to attend.







Looks Unlikely This Year!



Ram Charan is currently acting in the film 'Game Changer', directed by Shankar, which was heavily promoted to release as a Christmas gift on December 20th. Producer Dil Raju has also confirmed plans for a December release. However, the latest buzz suggests that releasing 'Game Changer' in December might be difficult due to already scheduled releases of 'Thandel' and 'Robin Hood' for December 20. Releasing during this time could potentially affect collections, and makers are considering pushing the release to early next year. A confirmation from the makers is awaited on this matter.






Ram Charan’s Mega Leap: Two Films a Year to Satisfy Fans


Mega Power Star Ram Charan has now become a pan-India star. Following the blockbuster 'RRR', his upcoming movie 'Game Changer' is set to release as a festive gift for Sankranti. Meanwhile, Ram Charan recently purchased a Rolls Royce car. He even attended the Ambani wedding in this car, capturing everyone's attention. Recently, he personally went to register this car, and the car's number plate has gone viral on the internet.



Here's the Fancy Number!



Mega Power Star Ram Charan has purchased an expensive Rolls Royce car. For its registration, he applied and received the number 'TG 09 C 2727' from the Transport Department. On Tuesday, he visited the RTA Central Zone office in Khairatabad for vehicle registration, causing quite a stir in the office. Fans took selfies, and the staff and officials also interacted and took photos with him. After completing the registration, he left the office.

Costing Crores!



Information suggests that Charan purchased the Rolls Royce car for ₹7.5 crores. Moreover, it's known that he specifically chose the 'TG 09 C 2727' fancy number for this car, reportedly spending between ₹10-20 lakhs for it. Charan already owns several cars, and now another car has joined his prestigious collection. Notably, Megastar Chiranjeevi also uses a Rolls Royce, as do several other celebrities. Currently, Ram Charan's fancy car number is going viral online.

Ram Charan's Rare Honor



It's known that a wax statue of Ram Charan is being set up at Madame Tussauds in Singapore. Alongside him, his pet dog 'Rhyme' will also have a statue. Representatives from the museum recently took measurements for these statues. Previously, Queen Elizabeth II was also depicted with her pet in wax. Following her, Charan will be the next celebrity to be depicted with his pet dog. He expressed that 'Rhyme' holds significant importance in his life, blending his personal and professional lives, making this statue particularly special.

Record OTT Rights Price!



Ram Charan's latest project 'Game Changer' is set to release on January 10 as a Sankranti gift. However, the film's OTT rights have been sold for a record price.
