Pan-Indian star Prabhas, who is on a roll with a string of hits, has given his fans another surprise treat. Today at 5:03 PM, the team behind his next film, "Raja Saab," revealed an interesting update. How was the glimpse? Prabhas appeared spectacular on a bike against a colorful background. In his charming getup, he looked handsome as ever. He mesmerized as he stepped off the bike holding a bouquet of flowers, playfully admiring his reflection in a car mirror while plucking a flower, which was a delightful sight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFZMBqyXkqQ Prabhas, the Pan-Indian Rebel Star, continues to maintain strong momentum with consecutive successes. He focuses on delivering the content his fans crave and has achieved significant victories. Notably, his film "Kalki" crossed Rs. 1100 crore, solidifying his position as the number one hero in India. In the Romantic Horror Genre... Stepping out from the success of "Kalki," Prabhas is now focusing on his future projects. He is actively participating in the shooting of "The Raja Saab" under the direction of Maruthi. After "Kalki," while he was set to act in "Spirit" directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, it seems Prabhas has been shooting extensively for "The Raja Saab." Known for enthralling audiences with mass action films, Darling seems to have taken a break to choose the romantic horror genre. They are ready to release "The Raja Saab" first, which is being filmed in this genre. Surprise at 5 PM The promotional images already released from this film have captivated audiences and fans alike. In keeping with this, the makers of "Raja Saab" delivered a surprise by releasing a glimpse on Monday (July 29) at 5:03 PM. Fans, affectionately called 'Darlings', are raving about it on social media, praising Prabhas's handsome look and posting comments like "awesome". They are also complimenting the superb background music in the glimpse. Music for this film is being provided by composer Thaman. The filmmakers are planning to release the movie on April 10 next year. The Hindi Song Remix Director Maruthi is considering remixing a super hit old Hindi song for "The Raja Saab." Discussions are also ongoing with music director Thaman about this remix. Currently, the makers are considering three songs for the final selection. There is strong buzz in film circles that the evergreen Bollywood song "O Khaike Paan Banaras Wala '' might be remade. In the 1940 Backdrop... On the other hand, Prabhas has signed a project with "Sita Ramam" fame Hanu Raghavapudi. Rumors suggest that this movie is titled "Fauji." With "Spirit" requiring more time for pre-production, Prabhas has given the green light to "Fauji." Director Hanu Raghavapudi has started preparations to begin shooting this film in October. "Fauji" is expected to be a period drama set in the 1940s, depicting the British era. Mrunal Thakur is likely to appear as the heroine opposite Prabhas. "Fauji" means soldier, so Prabhas is also expected to be portrayed as a soldier in this film. Prominent production house Mythri Movie Makers is ready to produce this film on a large budget, with Vishal Chandrashekhar set to provide the music. Official updates related to this movie are expected to arrive soon.

However, with many already having watched 'Kalki', 'Raayan' is gaining popularity on OTT. 'The Best of This Generation’… Hero Siddharth has praised the 'Kalki' team.

After gaining nationwide fame with the movie 'Animal', director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's unique directing skills have mesmerized everyone. Although his talent was already known to the Telugu audience from 'Arjun Reddy', it was 'Animal' that made it clear to the entire country. It is known that his next project is with Prabhas.

Prabhas New Movie: Exciting Update... Another Film Replaces 'Spirit'!

Following the blockbuster success of 'Kalki 2898 AD', Prabhas' popularity has reached new heights. There is growing anticipation nationwide for his upcoming projects. Prabhas is currently collaborating with director Maruthi on a film titled 'Raja Saab' and is also expected to appear in the sequel to 'Kalki', directed by Nag Ashwin. Additionally, renowned directors Prashanth Neel and Sandeep Reddy Vanga are lined up for future collaborations with him. It was widely expected that Sandeep Reddy Vanga's project would be Prabhas' next film to start production. However, recent buzz in Tollywood indicates that Prabhas may greenlight a different film instead. Let’s explore the details. Director Preference! Fans and others were expecting Prabhas to collaborate with Sandeep Reddy Vanga after the success of 'Kalki 2898 AD'. However, it appears that director Hanu Raghavapudi, known for 'Sita Ramam', has stepped in instead. Prabhas had previously committed to a project with Hanu Raghavapudi, now reportedly titled 'Fauji'. Given the extensive pre-production required for 'Spirit', Prabhas has opted to proceed with 'Fauji', sparking significant buzz in the industry.

Social media is abuzz with predictions of another blockbuster for Prabhas, potentially earning up to Rs. 1000 crores. Prabhas as a Powerful Police Officer Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has plans to uniquely craft 'Spirit', not focusing on affluent family dramas like in 'Arjun Reddy' or 'Animal', but setting it against a middle-class backdrop. Past comments by Sandeep suggest that Prabhas will play a powerful police officer, an avatar never seen before. His characterization and mannerisms are expected to bring something fresh to the screen. The script for 'Spirit' is nearing its final stages, with filming likely to commence around October or November, as buzzed in film circles.

From Screen to Stream: 'Kalki 2898 AD' Sets Sights on OTT Debut

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

Prabhas New Projects: Prabhas Keeps His Promise with Three Films Simultaneously on the Sets!

Pan-India star Prabhas is making rapid strides with a series of films. With back-to-back hits, he stands unmatched in stature among national cinema stars. Having recently hit the ₹1200 crore mark with his project 'Kalki', Prabhas has once again proven his box office prowess. Moreover, he's on a roll announcing consecutive pan-India projects. Following a strategy once employed by superstar Krishna, he's fully focused on his films. Prabhas is set to keep his promise to fans by launching three films at once. Let's explore more about this in this special report. Prabhas' Promise! Prabhas has become synonymous with pan-India films. Every film he takes on escalates to a national project. Until 'Adipurush' (2023), Prabhas would spend at least two years on each film, a pattern that began with 'Baahubali' in 2015. There was a two-year gap between 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2', and a three-year interval between 'Saaho' (2019) and 'Radhe Shyam' (2022), which initially disappointed fans. Frustrations grew over the gaps between his films. Understanding his fans' disappointment, Prabhas promised to release at least one film per year going forward. Keeping his word, he's been vigorously announcing new projects. Superstar Krishna’s Strategy! Prabhas is much more focused on his projects than before, ditching the consecutive project routine to adopt a strategy used by superstar Krishna, who used to work on three or more films simultaneously. Prabhas is now preparing to bring three projects to the sets simultaneously, following in Krishna's footsteps. Indeed, during 'Salaar', he also engaged in shooting 'Kalki 2898 AD', releasing both within a span of six months. Currently, Prabhas is working on 'Raja Saab' directed by Maruthi. He has also recently launched a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi and is planning to start 'Spirit' directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga by November. Prabhas is planning to participate in the shootings of these three films simultaneously and release each within a year. Additionally, there's potential to launch 'Salaar 2' and 'Kalki 2' next year. India’s No.1 Hero: Prabhas A recent July report by Bollywood media firm Ormax listed the most popular heroes, with Prabhas securing the number one position. Following Prabhas, Tamil star Vijay and Bollywood's Shah Rukh Khan filled the next top spots, with superstar Mahesh Babu and Junior NTR also featuring prominently. Prabhas has consistently topped these lists since May and June, much to the delight of fans and movie enthusiasts. Comments are flooding the internet celebrating Prabhas' ascension as the number one star, surpassing other Bollywood heroes.

Rajamouli, Prabhas, NTR, and Bunny: Tollywood's Box Office Titans Dominating the ₹1000 Crore Club

In Tollywood, reaching ₹100 crore in collections was once not a common feat. If a film crossed ₹100 crore during its lifetime, it was considered a significant achievement. However, the scenario has drastically changed in recent times. Director SS Rajamouli has elevated Tollywood to a global scale, making it common for our heroes to easily rake in ₹100 crores on the opening day alone. Recently, NTR also smashed records by grossing ₹172 crores on the first day alongside the godly figures. Several star heroes and directors from Tollywood have carved their own unique markets and can effortlessly claim these numbers with a solid hit. Let's take a look at these special figures. Market Over ₹1000 Crores! Director SS Rajamouli creates a global buzz with every film. His direction in 'Baahubali 2' (₹1810 crores) and 'RRR' (₹1300 crores) brought in over ₹1000 crores each. He is currently directing 'SSMB 29' with Mahesh Babu, which is expected to hit a global stride and is projected to gross around ₹2000 crores. On the other hand, pan-India star Prabhas has created a unique market for himself regardless of directors. His recent film 'Kalki 2898 AD' grossed over ₹1200 crores. With big projects like 'Kalki 2', 'Salaar 2', 'Spirit', and 'Raja Saab' in his pipeline, these films are poised to reach over ₹1000 crores. Market Between ₹700-1000 Crores Currently, Tollywood boasts five individuals who have a market capacity of from ₹700 Crores to ₹1000 crores. Among the heroes, Mahesh Babu and Allu Arjun easily fit this bill. Allu Arjun is set to release 'Pushpa 2' on December 6, and with the national buzz it's generating, it could easily make between ₹700-1000 crores if it becomes a hit. Mahesh Babu is set to drastically raise his market with an upcoming film directed by Rajamouli. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who is planning his next film with Prabhas, is expected to touch the ₹1000 crore mark, as per industry analysts. Prashanth Neel’s upcoming projects with NTR ('NTR31') and Prabhas ('Salaar 2') also place him in this high market bracket. Market Between ₹500-700 Crores In this market range, three Tollywood heroes stand out. NTR, Ram Charan, and Pawan Kalyan can easily achieve this with a proper hit. Notably, Tarak has already shown the potential to easily join the ₹500 crore club with his recent success with Devara. Ram Charan, collaborating with director Shankar on 'Game Changer', is expected to release around Christmas, and success here could similarly elevate him to the ₹500 crore club. Pawan Kalyan has yet to venture into pan-India films, but his upcoming projects 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' and 'OG' are set at this level. There's significant anticipation for 'OG' among fans. Market Between ₹200-500 Crores From Tollywood, megastar Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna are likely contenders for this category. At 69, Chiranjeevi's star power remains undiminished. His upcoming movie 'Vishwambhara' is highly anticipated and could easily make ₹200-500 crores if successful. Balakrishna’s last three films have each crossed ₹100 crores. His next, 'NBK109' directed by Bobby, features Bollywood actor Bobby Deol as the antagonist. A successful clash between them could easily surpass ₹200 crores. Meanwhile, script magician Trivikram, despite mixed reviews for his last film 'Gunturu Karam', managed ₹250 crores. His next film is rumored to be with Allu Arjun, which could potentially rake in ₹500 crores if successful. Director Koratala Siva has also increased his market value with the film 'Devara', projecting his future films to start above the ₹200 crore mark.

Prabhas Future Projects: Prabhas going strong in 2025 with three confirmed movies!

Global star Prabhas is currently at the peak of his career. His recent films, 'Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire' and 'Kalki 2898 AD', have been major box office successes, reinforcing his status as a top actor. Since the release of 'Baahubali 2', there has been a noticeable increase in the momentum of his films, with annual releases now a consistent part of his strategy. Last year, he starred in two films, and this year he has already introduced audiences to 'Kalki'. Next year, he is scheduled to appear in three films. Let’s delve into more details about these upcoming projects. Three upcoming films in the pipeline! After 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2', Prabhas's appeal has skyrocketed, elevating him from a regional Tollywood star to a global icon. He is not only maintaining this status but is also enhancing it with each new film. Currently, Prabhas has five major projects lined up. He is working on 'Raja Saab' with director Maruthi, 'Spirit' with Sandeep Reddy Vanga, 'Kalki 2' with Nag Ashwin, and 'Salaar 2' with Prashanth Neel, along with a new film with Hanu Raghavapudi. The first three films are set to release in 2025, with 'Raja Saab' already scheduled for an April 10, 2025 release. Producer Ashwini Dutt recently mentioned in an interview that the shooting for 'Kalki 2' is partially completed and hinted at a potential release around June next year. Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Spirit' is expected to start production soon, with plans to release by the end of next year. Given these developments, it is confirmed that Prabhas will have three releases in 2025, as per Tollywood buzz. Prabhas's consistent performance! Prabhas is embracing the maxim "Strike while the iron is hot," actively producing films to enhance his popularity and fanbase at the peak of his career. He has been rapidly completing projects, offering double the entertainment to his fans. In 2023, he presented 'Adipurush' and 'Salaar' to his audience. This year, he has already entertained his fans with 'Kalki', and he is poised to appear in a cameo in 'Kannappa' this December. Looking ahead, he has three films lined up for 2025, and he is gearing up for 'Salaar 2' and a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi for 2026. While other leading actors like Tarak, Allu Arjun, and Ram Charan are planning their releases with more time in between, Prabhas is swiftly producing movies, especially pan-India films, which is astonishing to everyone in the industry. Prabhas races to lead! The makers have officially announced that Prabhas's upcoming film 'Raja Saab' will be a summer treat in 2025, releasing globally in five languages (Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Hindi) on April 10. However, many major films have already entered the 2025 summer race. Naga Chaitanya's 'Thandel' and a multistarrer featuring Nagarjuna and Dhanush titled 'Kubera' are planned for next summer. Additionally, 'Toxic' starring Yash of 'KGF' fame and 'Sikandar' featuring Salman Khan are also targeting the summer of 2025. With Prabhas's film date locked, it's intriguing to see if these films will stick to their summer release plans or if they will adjust their schedules.

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

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.

Prabhas Set for His Biggest Film Yet: 'Spirit' to Feature Megastar Chiranjeevi and a Staggering INR 1000 Crore Budget!

Pan-Indian star Prabhas and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga are currently at the peak of their careers. Prabhas' last film, 'Kalki 2898 AD', grossed over INR 1200 crores, making a significant impact at the box office. Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s 'Animal' has also shaken up the Indian film industry significantly. Now, the anticipation for their upcoming collaboration on 'Spirit' has been mounting among audiences. Recently, some exciting updates about 'Spirit' have been revealed. Megastar Chiranjeevi's Special Appearance! There is strong speculation that Megastar Chiranjeevi might appear in a special role in the movie 'Spirit'. Reports suggest that director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has been in talks with Chiranjeevi, and if he agrees, it would significantly heightened expectations for 'Spirit'. Additionally, there is buzz that Malayalam superstar Mammootty will also play a crucial role in the film, which is said to be pivotal to the storyline. Official announcements from the production team are awaited. The movie is also rumored to feature Bollywood couple Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in roles with negative shades, and there are whispers that Korean and Chinese stars might join the cast as well. When Does Shooting Start? Pre-production work for 'Spirit' is currently in full swing, and initial plans by Sandeep Reddy Vanga aim to start shooting from November. However, Prabhas is currently busy with other projects like 'Raja Saab' and 'Fauji', which are also under production. With these projects scheduled, the new plan is to start shooting for 'Spirit' in the first week of January next year. By then, 'Raja Saab' would have wrapped up and 'Fauji' would be over 50% complete, freeing up Prabhas for 'Spirit'. Ceremonial activities for the movie are planned for early January, with regular shooting expected to begin after the festival of Sankranti. The Shocking Budget! 'Spirit', directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Prabhas, is generating massive expectations nationwide. Everyone is eagerly waiting to see when the film will hit the floors as the pre-production is creating a buzz online. The budget for the movie is rumored to have been set at a whopping INR 1000 crores. Initially, the budget was speculated to be around INR 500 crores, later updated to INR 750 crores, and now it stands at INR 1000 crores. If true, this would make 'Spirit' the biggest movie of Prabhas' career in terms of budget. Record Remuneration for Prabhas! Out of the total budget for 'Spirit', about INR 600 crores is reportedly allocated for the cast's remuneration, with Prabhas alone commanding INR 300 crores due to his dual role in the film. If confirmed, this payment would make him the highest-paid Indian actor ever. In addition, Bollywood stars like Anil Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, and Kareena Kapoor are also rumored to be playing special roles in the film, which justifies such a significant budget allocation for the cast.

Toxic Movie: Big Shock for KGF Hero Yash's Fans... Has 'Toxic' Unexpectedly Stalled?

Kannada actor Yash captured attention nationwide with his film 'KGF'. Following its success, 'KGF 2' further cemented his fanbase with its performance at the box office, sparking widespread interest in his next project. Recently, Yash embarked on the pan-India project 'Toxic'. The release of Yash's look from the movie set the trends buzzing, leading many to anticipate 'Toxic' as a surefire blockbuster. However, there's now a rampant buzz online that the filming of 'Toxic' has unexpectedly come to a halt. Yash's Trust Shaken! After achieving pan-India stardom with 'KGF', Kannada's rocking star Yash is currently involved in 'Toxic'. Post 'KGF 2', Yash took a significant break to begin 'Toxic' with confidence in director Geetu Mohandas. Rumors also surfaced that Nayanthara, Shruti Hassan, and Kiara Advani were selected as the female leads. The movie, set against the backdrop of an international drug mafia, sparked interest. However, it appears that Yash is not completely satisfied with Geetu Mohandas’s direction after some shooting was done. He believes she has not handled this pan-India project well, leading to viral news online that he has stopped the production midway. What's Reality? The ongoing buzz about 'Toxic' halting is false. Film circles clarify that while 'Toxic' has indeed paused, it has not been canceled. The stoppage is temporary due to certain reasons, and filming is expected to resume soon. Preparations are underway to release the movie in theaters by mid-2025, bringing joy to Yash's fans who are urging the team to ensure 'Toxic' surpasses 'KGF'. No Competition with Prabhas! Originally, the 'Toxic' team planned a release on April 10 next year, coinciding with the release of Prabhas and Maruthi's 'Raja Saab'. This was anticipated to create a major box office clash. However, the unexpected break in 'Toxic's' shooting makes a release by April 2025 nearly impossible, thus avoiding any direct competition with Prabhas. If all goes as planned, 'Toxic' might hit the screens around June or July next year. Yash’s Career Turnaround with 'KGF'! Before 'KGF', Yash acted in 19 Kannada films but didn't achieve the star status he hoped for, remaining a tier-2 hero in Sandalwood. His career transformed overnight with 'KGF', directed by Prashanth Neel, discussing him at a pan-India level. The massive success of 'KGF 2' solidified his fame, making Yash very cautious with his steps thereafter. He waited two years post 'KGF 2' for the right subject before finally committing to 'Toxic'.

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.

Swag Movie Review: Sree Vishnu Shines Amidst a Confusing Narrative

Cast: Sree Vishnu, Ritu Sharma, Daksha Nagarkar, Meera Jasmine, Sunil, Getup Srinu, Ravi Babu, Gopiraju Raman, Sharanya Pradeep, and others Written and Directed by: Hasith Goli Music by: Vivek Sagar Cinematography: Vedaraman Shankaran Editing by: Viplav Producer: T.G. Viswaprasad Release Date: October 4, 2024 After the super hit 'Raja Raja Chora', Sree Vishnu stars in the latest film 'Swag', directed by Hasith Goli. Featuring Ritu Varma, Meera Jasmine, and Daksha Nagarkar as the female leads, the already released trailers, teasers, and promotional images have heightened expectations. Released to audiences on October 4, did this film manage to impress? Did the Sree Vishnu-Hasith Goli combo deliver another hit? Let’s find out in this review. Plot The story of 'Swag' revolves around a lineage during the 1550s, a time marked by struggles for dominance between men and women. Bhavabhuti Maharaj (Sree Vishnu) devises a plan to confine his queen (Ritu Varma) and succeeds, subsequently bringing all the women in the kingdom under his control. As time progresses, Bhavabhuti's lineage continues with only daughters until twin boys are born. Bhavabhuti decides to gift one of his sons to his friend (Sunil), who has no sons. The lineage becomes dispersed over time. Cut to the present, the fortune belonging to the Swaganika lineage is securely kept, waiting to be passed to the rightful heir. Several claimants arrive, declaring themselves the descendants. Who are they really? Does the fortune find its rightful owner? To know more, one must watch the movie. Performances Young actor Sree Vishnu dazzles with his performance, portraying five roles including Bhavabhuti Maharaj, Yabhuti, Bhavabhuti, Vibhuti, and Singa. He connects emotionally with the audience as Yabhuti and entertains as Bhavabhuti. Ritu Varma impresses with her performance. Meera Jasmine, making her re-entry into Telugu cinema after 11 years, adequately delivers her role. Daksha Nagarkar marks her presence with her glamour, though her role lacks depth. Despite the presence of seasoned actors like Ravi Babu and Sunil, their roles do not stand out as the film primarily revolves around Sree Vishnu. The rest of the cast performed adequately. Direction Director Hasith Goli chose an interesting point for the film but the execution appears quite chaotic. The first half of the film leaves the audience puzzled for about 40 minutes until the comedy provides some relief. The director interestingly showcases Bhavabhuti's flashback and leads into the story well. The interval block may seem a bit messy but is passable. The first half overall can be described as average. Coming to the second half, the way Yabhuti's flashback is designed impresses the audience. Some double-meaning dialogues manage to evoke laughter. However, the climax again ends in confusion. The director concludes the film with a line indicating that gender discrimination is a blight on society, but the film feels abruptly ended, leaving a sense of incompleteness. The screenplay is quite confusing and demands full attention to grasp the storyline. Technically On the technical front, Vivek Sagar’s music and background score are highlights, adding value to the film. The cinematography is also commendable. Editing is decent, and the production values are high, offering a rich output despite a modest budget. Plus Points - Story - Sree Vishnu’s acting - Comedy Minus Points - Confusing screenplay - Slow narration Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 2.5/5

Allu Sirish's 'Buddy': A Spirited Comeback in an Action-Packed Adventure

Cast: Allu Sirish, Gayatri Bharadwaj, Prisha Singh, Ajmal Amir, Sriram Reddy, Mohammed Ali, Mukesh Kumar, and others. Director: Sam Antone Music: Hip-hop Tamizha Cinematography: Krishnan Vasant Editor: Ruben Producer: K.E. Gnanavel Raja Release Date: August 2, 2024 After a considerable hiatus, Mega Hero Allu Sirish makes his comeback with the film 'Buddy', starring alongside heroines Gayatri Bharadwaj and Prisha Singh. Directed by Sam Antone and produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja under the Studio Green Films banner, this action-adventure film was released on August 2.  What's the Story? Aditya Ram (Allu Sirish), a pilot, falls in love with Pallavi (Gayatri Bharadwaj), who works as an air traffic controller in Visakhapatnam, without ever meeting her. Just as they plan to meet, unexpected events unfold. Pallavi gets caught in a medical mafia trap and is kidnapped, falling into a coma. Her spirit enters a teddy bear that Aditya once gifted her. How does her spirit, through the teddy, reunite with Aditya? How does Aditya, with the help of the teddy, retrieve her body from the villains? What did the villain gang plan to do with Pallavi's body? This is the story. How Did They Perform? Allu Sirish delivers a remarkable performance as Aditya. He excels in the action sequences, showing great maturity as an actor in this film. Gayatri Bharadwaj captivates with her glamour, charming the audience every moment she's on screen. Ajmal Amir, as the villain, matches well against Sirish, impressing with his acting. Second heroine Prisha Singh delights as an air hostess. The other actors also performed commendably within their roles. How's the Direction? Director Sam Antone made an effort to craft a unique story with this film. The love track between Allu Sirish and Gayatri Bharadwaj is beautifully executed. The scenes that show their connection despite being physically apart are particularly entertaining for the youth. The film keeps the audience engaged with 'Kalki' and 'Jai Balayya slogans' that add energy. The action sequences involving Buddy and Allu Sirish are enjoyable. However, the director failed to maintain suspense about what happens next, with the scenes being predictable. Some irrelevant comedy scenes caused viewer fatigue. An attempt to inject humor into the crucial climax was unnecessary. Technically... Technically speaking, Hip-hop Tamizha's background music is a strong addition, enhancing the action scenes, although the songs themselves are not very memorable. Krishnan Vasant's cinematographer is commendable. Editor Ruben could have sharpened his cuts a bit more. Better output from the graphics department would have added value to the film. Production values are satisfactory. Plus Points - Allu Sirish's acting - The love track - Action sequences with Buddy Minus Points - Screenplay - Lack of suspense - Some boring scenes Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 2.5/5

Kavya Thapar Hot Pics: Kavya Thapar Enthralling the Youth

Kavya Thapar starred as the heroine in the newly released movie 'Viswam'. Her performance has captivated the audience. In this film directed by Srinu Vaitla with Gopichand as the hero, Kavya Thapar did not have much scope for acting. However, she has definitely made a significant impact with her glamour. She has once again charmed the youth with her allure. In this context, the hashtag #KavyaThapar is trending vigorously online. Especially in the mass song 'Gunguru Gunguru Party', netizens are commenting that Kavya has stolen the show. Her beauty and dance moves are continuously highlighted in posts. https://twitter.com/i/status/1844650013252825352 The music director for this song was specially handed over to Bhims, instead of Chetan Bhardwaj. Bhims composed this track which featured energetic dance steps by Gopichand and Kavya Thapar. https://twitter.com/actressspecial/status/1844644160881426905 Kavya Thapar also made a mark with her glamour in the recently released 'Double iSmart'. She competed with Ram in the dance sequences and made a splash. Originally from Maharashtra, Kavya Thapar began her acting career with the 2013 short film 'Tatkaal'. She was introduced as a heroine in the Telugu film 'Ee Maaya Peremito' in 2018. In 2019, she acted in the Tamil film 'Market Raja MBBS', but did not gain much recognition. In 2021, she starred opposite young hero Santosh Shobhan in 'Ek Mini Katha', earning good marks as a heroine. Her portrayal of Amrita impressed the Telugu audience. In 2022, she entered Bollywood with the movie 'Middle Class Love'. Despite a good performance in the role of Saisha Oberoi, the film's lack of success did not bring her recognition. Last year, she acted alongside Vijay Antony in 'Bichagadu 2'. The positive reception of the movie brought her consecutive opportunities in Telugu. This year, she acted in the movie 'Eagle' alongside Ravi Teja. Despite high hopes, the movie did not succeed, leaving Kavya disappointed. Her subsequent films, 'Ooru Peru Bhairavakona' and 'Double iSmart', did not hit the mark, leading to a downturn in Kavya Thapar's momentum. The latest release, 'Viswam', as a comedy entertainer, seems passable, giving Kavya's fans a bit of relief. Alongside movies, Kavya has also acted in web series. She played leading roles in 'CAT' (Punjabi) and 'Farzi' (Hindi). She stated that she places great importance on culture and traditions. Kavya even fasted during Navratri, hoping for the success of the movie 'Viswam'. Kavya is also taking special training to speak Telugu fluently. She shared that she learned a lot from Gopichand during the shooting. While being busy in films, she is also very active on social media. She regularly shares glamorous photos, giving her fans a hot treat. Currently, her Instagram account is followed by 1.5 million people. Any photo she posts quickly trends online.
