      'Slaves' Comment Backfires: Tamil Actress Kasthuri Shankar Schooled on Chennai's Telugu Origins and Tamil Nadu's Hidden Telugu Heritage
      'Slaves' Comment Backfires: Tamil Actress Kasthuri Shankar Schooled on Chennai's Telugu Origins and Tamil Nadu's Hidden Telugu Heritage
      Tamil actress Kasthuri Shankar, known for her roles in several blockbuster films like 'Bharatheeyudu', has recently made inappropriate comments targeting the Telugu-speaking people, equating them to slaves. Her comments, which purportedly elaborate on historical contexts, have sparked controversy in both Telugu states and have become a topic of discussion even in Tamil Nadu, where she is currently a member of the BJP. However, if Kasthuri were aware of history, she might have refrained from such remarks. Knowing the significant contributions of Telugu rulers, leaders, and individuals in Tamil lands would have offered a better perspective. What Exactly Happened? Tamil actress Kasthuri's recent comments have caused severe uproar in the Telugu states. During an event organized in Gurumoorthy Nagar in Chennai, she joined the BJP and targeted the DMK and the Karunanidhi family. She remarked that Telugu people, who initially came to serve in the royal courts 300 years ago, are now claiming Tamil identity, questioning who are others to deny Tamil identity to the Brahmins who came here long ago. She suggested that Dravidian ideologists oppose Brahmins merely because they advise against coveting others' wives, and thus, they oppose Sanathana Dharmam. She also claimed that speaking Telugu alone is enough to become ministers in Tamil Nadu, noting that five Telugu ministers are currently in the DMK government. Impact on Tamil History One of the prominent dynasties that ruled Tamil Nadu was the Cholas, among whom Kulottunga Chola-I was of Telugu descent. His father was Rajaraja Narendra, a ruler from the Vengi Chalukya dynasty who governed the region between Krishna and Godavari in present-day Andhra Pradesh. Kulottunga Chola’s mother, Ammangaidevi, was a princess in the Chola realm. After her father's death, instability plagued the Chola kingdom, leading Kulottunga to safeguard his grandfather's empire and continue ruling there. His descendants also successfully ruled Tamil Nadu. From 1061-1118, Kulottunga ruled as a Chalukya emperor, but his son Vikrama Chola became a Chola emperor, illustrating that the blood of Telugu Chalukyas was present in him. Historians often state that a Telugu person ruled the great Tamil kingdom of the Cholas, clearly marking the impact of Telugu culture on Tamil history. Image credit: Wikimedia Commons The Telugu Name Behind ‘Chennai’ The name of Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu, comes from a Telugu person. In 1639, Damerla Chennappa Nayakudu, a prince under Venkatapati Nayak, a lord from the Andhra Padmanayaka dynasty, governed the area. The British, under the East India Company, settled there and later renamed the area as Madras. Over time, the area became known as Madras, but locals preferred to call it Chennai Pattinam or Chennapuri. Following local preference, after independence, the name was officially changed to Chennai in August 1996. Image credit: Wikimedia Commons Telugu Influence on Madras Previously, the combined state of Madras, now Tamil Nadu, was united with Andhra Pradesh. Due to Potti Sreeramulu’s hunger strike, Andhra Pradesh was formed as a separate state on October 1, 1953. Telugu people played vital roles in all sectors in the erstwhile Madras state, contributing to its development. From 1925-29, Srikalahasti zamindar Panaganti Ramarayanam served as the president of the Justice Party and Chief Minister of Madras, during which the current Thyagaraya Nagar was established. Between 1932-36, Bobbili Raja, Sri Ramakrishna Ranga Rao, served as the Chief Minister of the Madras Presidency. Rao Bahadur Kurma Venkata Reddy Naidu worked as the Governor of Madras. Even before the split, Prakasam Pantulu, a Telugu person, served as the Chief Minister of the united Madras state. The first three graduates in law from Madras University were Telugu. Thus, Telugu individuals significantly impacted politics, education, medicine, law, and commerce. Image credit: Wikimedia Commons Hundreds of Telugu Manuscripts Vijayanagara Emperor Sri Krishnadevaraya, known to all Telugu people, wrote 'Amuktamalyada' under the witness of his court's Ashtadiggajas, which is still preserved in the Tanjavur library in Tamil Nadu. Along with it, 778 palm manuscripts covering mathematics, science, and mythology are stored there, demonstrating the extent of Telugu cultural influence in Tamil Nadu. This cultural patronage by ancient kings highlights Tamil Nadu as a symbol of cultural integration, which everyone should recognize.

      Bhumika Chawla's Heartbreaking Story: Replaced in 'Jab We Met' After Waiting a Year
      Bhumika Chawla's Heartbreaking Story: Replaced in 'Jab We Met' After Waiting a Year
      Bhumika Chawla was once a star heroine in Tollywood, acting alongside leading heroes like Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu, Junior NTR, Ravi Teja, and Venkatesh. Her films such as 'Okkadu', 'Khushi', and 'Simhadri' were major hits in the industry. However, she recently shared a grievous insult she faced early in her Hindi film career. She revealed that she was abruptly removed from a project that she had high hopes for. Her comments about this incident have gone viral online. Now, let’s look at the details. Waited a Year.. Still Replaced! Bhumika Chawla's transformation into a film heroine began with the 2000 film 'Yuvakudu' starring Sumanth. She then gained recognition in Telugu as a star heroine through films like 'Khushi', 'Vasu', 'Okkadu', 'Missamma', and 'Simhadri'. After 'Simhadri', her first Hindi film 'Tere Naam' also turned out to be a success, leading to continuous offers in Bollywood, including 'Munna Bhai MBBS' and 'Jab We Met'. Bhumika revealed that she was initially selected as the heroine for 'Jab We Met'. She waited almost a year for this movie and did not accept other films to avoid date issues. However, she mentioned that initially, Bobby Deol was considered as the hero for 'Jab We Met', but later they brought in Shahid Kapoor instead. Subsequently, they also replaced her with Kareena Kapoor as the final choice. This deeply upset her, and she remarked that her career could have been different had she done the film. https://twitter.com/theBuzZBasket/status/1846077009803297009 Those Movies Gave Me Joy: Bhumika It appears that Bhumika Chawla also faced injustice with the Hindi film 'Munna Bhai MBBS'. Initially, she was considered for the heroine role opposite Sanjay Dutt. Due to unavoidable reasons, she was replaced by Vidya Balan. This film became a blockbuster hit in Hindi and was remade in Telugu as 'Shankar Dada MBBS' by Megastar, which was also a grand success. Despite losing these two opportunities, Bhumika recalled the success of her Telugu films 'Khushi', 'Okkadu', and 'Simhadri', which recently re-released and achieved good collections, bringing her joy. Was She Replaced Just for a Girlfriend? There are discussions in Bollywood circles suggesting a strong reason behind Bhumika’s removal from 'Jab We Met'. During the time of this movie, there were widespread reports of Shahid Kapoor being in a relationship with Bollywood beauty Kareena Kapoor. In this context, it is alleged that Shahid Kapoor provided his girlfriend with the opportunity by replacing Bhumika. However, Kareena later separated from Shahid and eventually married Saif Ali Khan. Some people believe that the directors and producers might have thought Kareena would be a better fit alongside Shahid Kapoor, which is why they made the switch at the last moment. Despite acting in several Hindi films thereafter, Bhumika did not achieve significant success. 21 Years Later.. Currently, Bhumika has begun her second innings in Telugu cinema, captivating audiences with key supporting roles in films like 'MCA (Middle Class Abbayi)', 'Savyasachi', 'Ruler', 'Paagal', 'Seetimaarr', 'Sita Ramam', and 'Butterfly'. She is also playing a pivotal role in the upcoming film 'Euphoria', directed by Gunasekhar. Notably, this is the first film she is doing with Gunasekhar after the blockbuster 'Okkadu', 21 years ago. She expressed her happiness about working with Gunasekhar again on her Instagram account, writing about the start of a new journey.

      Pushpa 2 vs NBK 109: Allu Arjun and Balakrishna Face-off? Another Big Fight at the Box Office!
      Pushpa 2 vs NBK 109: Allu Arjun and Balakrishna Face-off? Another Big Fight at the Box Office!
      Icon Star Allu Arjun and director Sukumar's much-anticipated movie "Pushpa 2: The Rule" is currently shooting at a brisk pace and is set to hit theaters on December 6. Allu Arjun's fans are eagerly awaiting this date. With no other major releases scheduled for the first week of December, it is expected that "Pushpa 2" will dominate the box office. However, it seems that Nandamuri Balakrishna will provide strong competition to Bunny's film. A box office clash between Balayya and Bunny appears imminent. Pushpa 2 vs NBK 109! Nandamuri Balakrishna is working on an action entertainer with director Bobby. Known by its working title 'NBK 109,' this movie is also progressing rapidly. Initially, the makers planned to release the movie as a Sankranthi treat. However, recent buzz suggests they plan to release it a month earlier, on December 2, and preparations are underway. An official announcement may soon confirm this. If this happens, the box office clash between Allu Arjun and Nandamuri Balakrishna is set to be intriguing. Akhanda Sentiment! Balakrishna is also driven by a sentiment to release his film in the first week of December. His movie "Akhanda," released three years ago on December 2, was a blockbuster. Makers strongly believe that releasing 'NBK 109' on the same date will replicate that success. Meanwhile, Megastar Chiranjeevi's "Vishwambhara" is slated for a grand release on January 10, along with Venkatesh - Anil Ravipudi's film, Ajith's "Good Bad Ugly," and "Shatamanam Bhavati 2," all set for Sankranthi. Hence, 'NBK 109' might have to opt for an earlier release date. Balakrishna’s Golden Jubilee Celebration Nandamuri Balakrishna is celebrating 50 years in the cinema industry. A grand golden jubilee celebration is planned by Tollywood on September 1 in Hyderabad. The event invitations are being distributed jointly by the TFPC, TFCC, and MAA Association to prominent actors. Recently, Stylish Star Allu Arjun received his invitation.

Rare Honor for 'Pushpa 2' Until 'Pushpa,' Allu Arjun was known primarily to the Tollywood audience. With the success of 'Pushpa' (2021), he gained fans worldwide. Due to the success of 'Pushpa' both in India and overseas, 'Pushpa 2' has generated significant hype among international audiences. Consequently, pre-sale bookings have been opened overseas, and viewers have eagerly snapped up the tickets. A record first 15,000 tickets were sold out in moments, marking the fastest sale for an Indian film in America. A special poster has been released by the Pushpa team to celebrate this feat, overwhelming the fans with joy. The records being set even before the release hint at what the scenario would be once the film is officially out. https://twitter.com/PushpaMovie/status/1854036371146695000 Promotions like Rajamouli! Just like Rajamouli's team handled the nationwide promotions for 'Baahubali-2' and 'RRR,' it is known that similar strategies were adopted for 'Kalki 2898 AD' using a specific promotional vehicle across major cities in India. Now, the Pushpa team plans to employ the same formula, allocating a month for promotional activities. The makers are planning to hold promotional events for 'Pushpa 2' in major cities like Hyderabad, Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, and Kochi, and even considering an event in Patna, the capital of Bihar. They are also aiming to attract the North Indian audience with promotions in Bollywood. Two More Songs Pending! There is still a month left until the release of 'Pushpa 2'. It is reported that the movie shooting is yet to be completed, with two songs and one scene remaining. Notably, a key item song is also pending. Several Bollywood heroines were considered for this special song, and it has been finalized to feature Sreeleela. The shooting for this song has started today. It will be interesting to see how director Sukumar manages to finish the remaining song and pending scene in this short period. Meanwhile, dubbing work is proceeding simultaneously in all languages, and Bunny has already completed dubbing for the first half of his role, with efforts underway to finish the rest soon. Trailer Launch on November 15th!  Everyone remembers how trendy the trailer for 'Pushpa' was, famously stating 'Did you think Pushpa was a flower? It's fire.' Now, an even more impressive trailer cut is being prepared, with plans to release it in about a week to ten days. The makers are planning to release the trailer in major cities across the country, and there are high chances it will be launched on the 15th of this month.

      'Pushpa 2' Item Song Buzz: Sreeleela or Shraddha Kapoor to Replace Samantha? 🔥 Here's What We Know!
      'Pushpa 2' Item Song Buzz: Sreeleela or Shraddha Kapoor to Replace Samantha? 🔥 Here's What We Know!
      Allu Arjun returns as the lead in the pan-Indian film directed by Sukumar, titled 'Pushpa 2: The Rule,' which is the sequel to the blockbuster 'Pushpa: The Rise.' The item song from the previous film was a massive hit, mesmerizing audiences across India with Samantha’s performance in 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava,' and now, there's a high expectation for the upcoming sequel's item number. However, who will star in the next item song remains a mystery. Initially, Tripti Dimri was considered for the item song in 'Pushpa 2,' but reports suggest that the film crew has decided against it after being dissatisfied with the rehearsal outcomes. Now, there's talk of considering two younger actresses from Tollywood and Bollywood to fill the spot. 'Pushpa' generated immense buzz nationally, with its pre-release business surpassing ₹1000 crores. The makers are carefully managing every aspect to ensure that 'Pushpa 2' surpasses the feel and success of Part 1. Notably, the songs from the first part were huge hits, particularly the item song 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava' performed by Samantha and Bunny, which the director Sukumar plans to top in this sequel. Item Song featuring Sreeleela There's a buzz that Sreeleela has been approached to dance alongside Bunny in the item song for 'Pushpa 2.' Sreeleela's popularity among the youth skyrocketed after her item song with superstar Mahesh Babu in 'Guntur Kaaram.' Her energetic performance in the 'Aa Kurchi Madatapetti' song from the movie was widely appreciated for its dance and glamour, prompting filmmakers to make serious efforts to include her in 'Pushpa 2,' with both Sukumar and Bunny reportedly green-lighting her participation. Romance with Shraddha Kapoor Another name being considered for the item song is Bollywood’s beauty star Shraddha Kapoor, whose recent movie 'Stree-2' was a big hit. Given her appeal, including her in the song might enhance the nationwide buzz around 'Pushpa.' Talks have already taken place with her, and if she agrees, it could elevate the film's pan-Indian appeal. A formal announcement regarding the participating actress is expected soon, as the item song shoot is scheduled for November. Bunny paired with two heroines Rashmika Mandanna is known to be the leading lady in 'Pushpa 2,' but there’s news that she might also join the item song. Even though Rashmika was part of the first part, she did not appear in the item song which was exclusively led by Bunny and Samantha. With the inclusion of two heroines in the sequel’s item number, expectations among movie lovers are soaring to see how Bunny will perform alongside them. November: The month of Pushpa mania Allu Arjun has declared November as the month of 'Pushpa.' With just a month left until the movie's release, promotions are kicking off. A nationwide tour is hinted, with full-scale promotions across all languages set to begin by mid-November. The entire movie crew is expected to participate in these promotions. Final phase of 'Pushpa 2' shooting The shooting for 'Pushpa 2' is nearly complete, except for the item song. The climax scene involving Allu Arjun and villain Fahadh Faasil was recently filmed at Ramoji Film City. The climax will be crucial, much like in the first part, and will also link to the potential third part of the series.

      Allu Arjun's 'Pushpa 2' Trailer to Drop in Patna: Fans Go Wild for New Updates!
      Allu Arjun, under the direction of Sukumar, has created a buzz nationwide with "Pushpa 2," set to premiere worldwide on December 5th. As the release date approaches, daily updates about "Pushpa 2" are causing a stir online, heightening fans' anticipation for the trailer release. In response, the makers have brought a thrilling update and clarified the trailer release details through a special poster. Grand Release in Patna "Pushpa The Rule" has moviegoers from around the world eagerly waiting, with less than a month to go before its release. In this context, the movie team has given a fantastic update. They announced that the trailer would be released in Patna at 6:03 PM on November 17, unveiling a new poster featuring Bunny, with Pushpa appearing aggressively with a gun slung over his shoulder, much to the delight of cinema lovers. It is certain that the "Pushpa 2" trailer release will create a significant buzz on social media. https://twitter.com/PushpaMovie/status/1855922382181134676 Why Specifically in Bihar? Despite having numerous states in the north to choose from, there's a compelling reason behind the decision to release the "Pushpa 2" trailer in Bihar. The original "Pushpa" film, released in 2021, unexpectedly achieved massive success in the north, particularly in Bihar, where the movie was celebrated grandly. Pushpa's mass character resonated well with the audience in Bihar, who warmly embraced it, even creating numerous reels mimicking Bunny. Recently, the title song from "Pushpa 2" also saw Bihar's youth creating reels. Uttar Pradesh, a neighboring state of Bihar, also showed great admiration for "Pushpa." During the 2022 UP elections, the opposition Congress party even used the tune of "Srivalli" from "Pushpa" in their campaign. With numerous instances showcasing Pushpa's craze in Bihar and UP, the "Pushpa 2" team aims to gain substantial mileage by launching the trailer in Bihar's capital, Patna. Sensational Sreeleela in 'Kissick' Star heroine Sreeleela is set to perform an item song in "Pushpa 2." A recent picture of her with Bunny on the set went viral. "Pushpa 2" team officially announced on Sunday (November 11) that Sreeleela is part of their project, performing a special song titled 'Kissick,' which they anticipate will be the song of the year. They promised it would be a delightful treat for cinema lovers, dubbing her "The Dancing Queen Sreeleela." Currently, the song is being filmed. https://twitter.com/PushpaMovie/status/1855559794985426988 Dance Must Be Spectacular! Sreeleela's dance in the "Pushpa 2" item song is expected to be breathtaking. It's no exaggeration to say she outperforms many contemporary heroines in dance. She has gained more fans for her dance than her acting, as seen in her show-stopping performance on the Pulsar bike song in Ravi Teja's "Dhamaka." Recently, she was sensational in the song "Kurchi Madathapetti" with Mahesh Babu. With Sreeleela known as a dance queen, even seasoned dancers tend to step back a bit when she performs. Pairing her with Bunny promises an item song that will leave fans' imaginations running wild. Team India Joins the Promotions! With only a month left until the release of "Pushpa 2," the film team is focusing heavily on promotions across all major cities in North India. They plan to invite Indian cricket stars such as Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh, and Arshdeep Singh to these events. An official announcement regarding this is expected next week. If true, "Pushpa 2" is set to create a new trend, as cricket players have not previously participated in movie promotions. If they join the "Pushpa 2" promotions, it will mark a new chapter in Indian movie history.

Ade puli nalugu adugulu venakki vesindante Pushparaj vachadani ardham."

      Did Bunny Deliberately Skip Balakrishna's Event?
      Did Bunny Deliberately Skip Balakrishna's Event?
      Following the success of "Pushpa: The Rise," Allu Arjun's stature has grown immensely. As Pushparaj, he mesmerized fans and garnered a pan-India following. Now, he's gearing up to entertain not just Telugu audiences but also cinema lovers across India with "Pushpa 2: The Rule." As the shooting for "Pushpa 2" nears completion, there's growing curiosity about Bunny’s next project. Currently, everyone is speculating that his next movie could be with Tamil star director Atlee. Bunny Sidelines the Atlee Project! There has been ongoing buzz that Allu Arjun was set to make a film with Kollywood star director Atlee, produced by Sun Pictures and aimed at a pan-India audience. Reports had suggested that the Bunny-Atlee project would commence immediately after the completion of "Pushpa 2." Atlee, having directed a blockbuster like "Jawan" with Bollywood's Shah Rukh Khan, raised expectations for his collaboration with Bunny. However, the latest buzz suggests that this project has been postponed. Rumors are circulating that Allu Arjun changed his mind, leading to the stalling of this film. The true details are expected to be clarified soon. Atlee’s Film with Salman! With the Bunny project becoming uncertain, director Atlee seems to have turned his sights towards Bollywood, where he has reportedly secured another movie. There's strong buzz in B-town that Atlee has fixed a film with Bollywood star hero Salman Khan. Sources say that Salman was extremely impressed with Atlee's story and quickly gave the green light. Atlee, with his experience working with Shah Rukh Khan, didn't take long to finalize this project. Strong buzz also suggests that Universal Star Kamal Haasan will act in this project, which is expected to begin pre-production work within the next four months. https://twitter.com/MovieTamil4/status/1830519679502459146 Bunny Under Trivikram’s Direction! With the Atlee project sidelined, it appears Bunny's next film will be with the wizard of words, Trivikram. The film is expected to be a major pan-India release. Producer Bunny Vasu recently commented that Bunny and Trivikram have spent about a year and a half finalizing the concept for this movie. He hinted that this film would venture into a new genre that Trivikram has not explored before. Information suggests that for the first time, Trivikram will delve into a mythological genre for Bunny. Currently, Trivikram and his team are busy finalizing the script. Bunny Misses Balayya's Function! It’s well known about the ongoing social media war between Mega-Pawan fans and Allu Arjun's fans. Everyone expected that Chiranjeevi and Allu Arjun would appear together on stage during the celebration of Balakrishna’s 50-year cinema career. If both had appeared on the same stage, it might have even cooled down the fan wars. Surprisingly, Bunny did not attend the event held on Sunday (September 1). Despite being very close to Allu Aravind and Balakrishna, and even being seen together during the 'Unstoppable' show on Aha, Bunny’s absence became a topic of discussion. Netizens are speculating whether Bunny intentionally missed the event knowing that the Megastar would be attending.

      Pushpa 2’s New Sensation: Sreeleela Replaces Samantha for Iconic Item Song Amidst Remuneration Debate!
      Pushpa 2’s New Sensation: Sreeleela Replaces Samantha for Iconic Item Song Amidst Remuneration Debate!
      Icon star Allu Arjun and creative director Sukumar's 'Pushpa' was a massive hit, with no need for special mention. Particularly, the item song 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava' performed by Samantha became a sensation across the country. In this backdrop, Sukumar has set up a similar item song (Pushpa 2 Item Song) for the currently filming 'Pushpa 2'. This time, replacing Samantha, Sreeleela is performing this special song. Recently, photos of Sreeleela from the song shoot set have also surfaced. Alongside this, a piece of news regarding Sreeleela’s remuneration has come out, sparking debates about injustice done to her. What’s Sreeleela’s Remuneration? The film 'Pushpa 2', formed from the Allu Arjun - Sukumar combo, is set to release worldwide on December 5. The prominent production company, Mythri Movie Makers, is producing this film with an approximate budget of Rs. 500 crores, sparing no expense. In this process, it is rumored online that the heroine Sreeleela, who performed in the item song (Pushpa 2 Item Song), has been paid a hefty sum. It’s talked within film circles that she received Rs. 2 crores remuneration for this song, known as 'Kissik'. The total cost including the set and heroine's remuneration is estimated to be around Rs. 5 crores. Injustice Compared to Samantha! In the 'Pushpa' film released in 2021, Samantha performed an item song and reportedly received a remuneration of Rs. 5 crores at that time. However, the fact that Sreeleela has been given only Rs. 2 crores for the recent item song has her fans upset, posting on social media about the perceived unfairness. They express dissatisfaction that she hasn’t even been given half of what was paid to Samantha, questioning what less Sreeleela has. Yet, film circles refute this, stating no injustice has been done to Sreeleela. Reports suggest that while Sreeleela earns around Rs. 4-5 crores for a three-hour movie, she’s being paid Rs. 2 crores for just a three-minute song in 'Pushpa 2', arguing that she’s actually receiving more than her market value. Sreeleela.. Bunny’s Choice! The decision to choose Sreeleela for the Pushpa 2 item song (Pushpa 2 Item Song) wasn’t just director Sukumar's idea but also came from Icon star Allu Arjun, sources reveal. Bunny had previously worked with Sreeleela on an ad for the prominent OTT platform 'Aha', where their chemistry was well-received on social media. Also, among the current generation of actresses, Sreeleela is acclaimed as one of the best dancers. Considering all these, it’s said that Bunny showed a particular fondness for featuring Sreeleela. Earlier, Bollywood star heroines like Shraddha Kapoor, Disha Patani, and Tripti Dimri were considered for this item song. Trailer Release in Patna The movie 'Pushpa The Rule' (Pushpa 2 Trailer), eagerly awaited by cinephiles both in India and abroad, is nearing its release. With this, the movie team has given a smashing update about the trailer release. Recently announced, the trailer is set to be released in Patna on the evening of November 17 at 6:03 PM. A new poster featuring Bunny, looking aggressive with a gun over his shoulder, has also been released, much to the delight of movie lovers. With the release of the Pushpa 2 trailer, a buzz on social media is assured. https://twitter.com/PushpaMovie/status/1855922382181134676

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

      Netflix Shocker: ‘Thangalaan’ OTT Deal in Trouble After Box Office Struggles!
      Netflix Shocker: ‘Thangalaan’ OTT Deal in Trouble After Box Office Struggles!
      Tamil actor Vikram, who became popular in Telugu for his distinct roles in films like 'Aparichitudu' and 'I', has captivated everyone with his performance as a primitive man in the recently released film 'Thangalaan'. Vikram's transformation for his role in this movie has garnered widespread acclaim. Released on August 15, the film received mixed reviews. However, even before its release, Netflix secured the OTT rights for a hefty price. This has led cine lovers, who have been eagerly anticipating when the movie will arrive on OTT, to receive a shock from the prominent OTT company, Netflix. Let's delve into the details. Netflix Backs Down! The latest film starring Chiyaan Vikram, 'Thangalaan', a periodic action drama, was presented by Pa Ranjith. It was produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja under the Studio Green Films banner in association with Neelam Productions. Featuring Parvathy Thiruvothu and Malavika Mohanan as the heroines, the movie was released in theaters in Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada languages on August 15 and managed to stir a mixed response. The movie did not achieve the expected success, leading Netflix to reconsider their OTT deal for 'Thangalaan'. Reportedly, Netflix is demanding to lower the previously agreed sum for the OTT rights. Release on Another OTT? According to reports, the producers of 'Thangalaan' are not willing to comply with Netflix's demand to reduce the price for the OTT rights. With the producers rejecting this offer, there is talk in Kollywood circles that Netflix has canceled the OTT deal. As Netflix remains firm, the producers are intensifying efforts to offer 'Thangalaan' to another OTT platform. However, this process may take more time to complete. Until then, it seems unlikely that 'Thangalaan' will appear on any OTT platform soon, leaving cine lovers who are eagerly waiting a bit shocked. Collections Nil! The prominent Tamil producer K.E. Gnanavel Raja produced 'Thangalaan' with a budget of nearly ₹100 crores. Despite only average reviews, it was expected that the film would easily garner over ₹150 crores. However, unexpectedly, the film only grossed ₹105 crores and managed a net collection of just ₹70 crores. Regardless of the film's outcome, Vikram's performance was universally praised. His acting in 'Thangalaan' has been hailed as another milestone in his career, making everyone hopeful to watch the movie on OTT, only to be left disappointed by Netflix. What's the Story? Set in the 1850s during British rule in India, the story unfolds in a village called Veppur. Thangalaan (Vikram) lives there with his family. Under unforeseen circumstances, Thangalaan is forced to join an English lord named Clement in a quest for gold. This journey brings them face-to-face with bizarre experiences. Thangalaan dreams that a sorceress from the serpent tribe, Arati (Malavika Mohanan), is protecting the gold with her supernatural powers. But is she really guarding the gold? What challenges do Thangalaan and his team face because of her? What does Thangalaan learn through this journey? Did they finally discover the gold or not? That forms the crux of the story.
