      Venkat Prabhu Faces Backlash Over Telugu Audience Criticism After 'The Goat' Underperforms
      Venkat Prabhu Faces Backlash Over Telugu Audience Criticism After 'The Goat' Underperforms
      The latest film starring Kollywood star hero Vijay, titled 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time), released on September 5 and has been a massive hit in Tamil Nadu, even crossing the Rs. 300 crore mark with impressive overseas collections. However, the film seems to be facing strong resistance in the Telugu and Hindi markets. In this context, the film's director Venkat Prabhu responded, sparking a heated debate on social media. 'That's Why They Didn't Like It' In Telugu and Hindi, 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time) did not meet the expected levels of success. Mythri Movie Makers, a prominent production company, purchased the film for Rs. 22 crores in Telugu, but so far, it has only grossed Rs. 10 crores. Current circumstances suggest that even breaking even may be difficult. Against this backdrop, director Venkat Prabhu took to social media to express his views. He suggested that scenes related to Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni, which were highlights, did not resonate well with Telugu and Hindi audiences, which might be why the film underperformed in these regions. He also accused fans of the IPL teams from Mumbai and Bangalore of excessively trolling his film, attributing this to his known fandom of Chennai Super Kings. Venkat Prabhu's comments have become a hot topic on social media. https://twitter.com/TheAakashavaani/status/1833133203697131918 Telugu Audience Fires Back..! Telugu audiences are strongly criticizing Venkat Prabhu's recent comments. They are posting online that there are other reasons for 'The Goat's disaster performance in Telugu. Comments suggest that if the content is good, they support films irrespective of the industry. They remind the director of the massive success his previous film 'Maanaadu' had in Telugu, indicating that MS Dhoni also has a huge fanbase in the Telugu states, with stadiums filling up in yellow jerseys whenever a CSK match is played in Hyderabad. They are requesting that the actual reasons for 'The Goat's failure be investigated. Reasons for the Flop in Telugu Are These! Director Venkat Prabhu made 'The Goat' with a routine story where Vijay played dual roles as father and son. Despite the terrorism backdrop, it lacked the twists typically seen in agent films. There were no twists or turns in the story, and even the operations conducted by the hero lacked thrill. Additionally, unnecessary songs and Yogi Babu's comedy track tested the patience of the Telugu audience. However, the action sequences and the IPL track in the climax managed to generate some excitement. Dhoni Said No! 'The Goat' featured many cameo roles. Sivakarthikeyan and Trisha appeared as guests, and India's former cricket captain MS Dhoni was also shown during the climax using IPL visuals. Director Venkat Prabhu originally intended to have a scene with Dhoni in the film, but since Dhoni did not agree, they had to resort to using IPL visuals. The 20-minute climax episode captivated cricket lovers immensely. Furious Over Negative Reviews Director Venkat Prabhu responded to the negative reviews of 'The Goat.' "People don't talk about the effort we put into making the film. Some intentionally post negative comments. We included references in the film not found in any other movie, all to celebrate every hero fan. The film wasn't made just for the guest appearances but was crafted to include everything audiences desire. We made this film for the audience, not the reviewers," he stated.

      Vijay's 'The Goat' Nears ₹300 Crore Mark with Impressive Box Office Performance
      Vijay's 'The Goat' Nears ₹300 Crore Mark with Impressive Box Office Performance
      Tamil star hero Vijay stars in the latest action thriller "The Goat" (The Greatest Of All Time), directed by Venkat Prabhu. Meenakshi Chaudhary is the heroine, with Sneha, Laila, Prashanth, and Prabhudeva playing key roles. The film, featuring de-aging technology, marks Vijay's last movie before his rumoured entry into politics, which has spiked expectations. However, it was released worldwide on Thursday, September 5. In Telugu-speaking regions, the film received mixed reviews, whereas in Tamil Nadu, it particularly captivated Vijay's fanbase and garnered a hit talk. On its first day, the movie grossed over Rs. 120 crore. Now, let’s see how the weekend collections shaped up. How Much Did The Weekend Collections Amount To? Vijay’s "The Goat" (The Greatest Of All Time) lived up to expectations at the box office, grossing Rs. 282.5 crore worldwide in the first four days, narrowly missing the Rs. 300 crore club. However, it set a record as the highest-grossing Tamil film of the year. Dhanush's recent film 'Raayan' crossed lifetime gross earnings of Rs. 154 crore within the first two days and set this feat. Notably, 'The Goat' grossed Rs. 106.40 crore in Tamil Nadu alone. In the two Telugu-speaking states, it collected Rs. 10.10 crore, Rs. 21.1 crore in Karnataka, Rs. 10.4 crore in Kerala, and Rs. 13.9 crore in the rest of India. Overseas, the film fetched around Rs. 120.15 crore according to trade estimates. Currently, the film is surging towards the Rs. 300 crore club. What’s The Film Like? Director Venkat Prabhu’s storyline doesn’t bring anything new to the table. Movies featuring a hero working in defense and the villain raising the hero’s son only to turn him against his father have been quite common. However, the scenes written about the son’s revenge seem interesting. The first half is mostly spent introducing the hero and other characters, with the story unfolding predictably until the pre-interval. The interval scene sets up an intriguing second half. Though the second half also largely unfolds as expected, the director successfully crafted an engaging climax. The twists in the second half will surprise the audience. The film’s comedy and dialogues are deeply infused with Tamil elements, which might not appeal as much to the Telugu audience. However, for Vijay's fans, this film is sure to be a treat. What's the Story? Gandhi (Vijay), a special anti-terrorism squad officer, conducts various successful missions with his teammates Sunil (Prashant), Ajay (Ajmal), and Kalyan Sundaram (Prabhu Deva). However, he keeps his job a secret from his wife Anu (Sneha). During one mission abroad, his five-year-old son dies. Believing her husband to be responsible, Anu distances herself from Gandhi. Distraught, Gandhi leaves the force. Years later, on a trip to Moscow, he encounters his son Jeevan (Vijay), whom he thought was dead, alive. Overjoyed, he brings him back to India. From then on, Gandhi’s acquaintances start dying one by one. Who is responsible for these deaths? How did his presumed-dead son come back? How does Gandhi stop the killings? These questions form the crux of the story.

      Vijay's 'The Goat' Makes a Strong Impact with First-Day Collections Despite Mixed Reviews
      Tamil superstar Vijay stars in the latest action thriller 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time), directed by Venkat Prabhu. Meenakshi Chaudhary plays the leading lady, while Sneha, Laila, Prashanth, and Prabhu Deva have significant roles. This film, developed with de-aging technology, has garnered high expectations as it is rumored to be Vijay's final movie before his political entry. It was released worldwide on Thursday (September 5) and received mixed reactions in the Telugu states, but it was a hit among Vijay's fans in Tamil Nadu. Let’s see how the movie performed on its first day. Day 1 Collections Matching the high expectations, 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time) raked in impressive collections on its first day. In India alone, the film is estimated to have grossed over ₹55 crores, with a net collection of ₹43 crores. Tamil Nadu alone contributed a gross of ₹38.3 crores. The Telugu states accounted for ₹3 crores and Hindi markets brought in ₹1.7 crores in gross collections. The worldwide gross is expected to surpass ₹80 crores on the first day. However, according to trade estimates, 'The Goat' could not surpass the record set by Vijay’s previous film 'Leo', which collected ₹148.5 crores on its first day. What's 'The Goat' Like? Director Venkat Prabhu’s story does not present much novelty. Movies featuring a hero working in defense sectors and villains raising the hero’s son only to use him against the hero have been seen before. However, the scenes depicting the son’s revenge feel intriguing. The first half mainly introduces the hero and other characters, progressing predictably until the pre-interval. The interval scene raises interest for the second half, which largely unfolds as expected, but the climax is crafted to captivate. The twists in the second half are sure to surprise the audience. The Tamil essence in comedy and dialogues might not appeal much to the Telugu audience, but Vijay's fans will likely find the film immensely engaging. The Plot Gandhi (Vijay), a special anti-terrorism squad officer, conducts various successful missions with his teammates Sunil (Prashant), Ajay (Ajmal), and Kalyan Sundaram (Prabhu Deva).

      Vijay's 'The GOAT': A Predictable Action Drama with Strong Performances and High Expectations
      Vijay's 'The GOAT': A Predictable Action Drama with Strong Performances and High Expectations
      Cast: Vijay, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Prabhu Deva, Prashant Thyagarajan, Kokila Mohan, Jayaram, Sneha, VTV Ganesh, Aravind Akash, Vaibhav Reddy, and others. Story and Direction: Venkat Prabhu Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja Cinematography: Siddharth Nuni Editing: Venkat Rajan Producers: Kalpathi S. Aghoram, Kalpathi S. Ganesh, Kalpathi S. Suresh Tamil star hero Vijay stars in the latest action thriller 'The GOAT' (The Greatest of All Time), directed by Venkat Prabhu. The film also features Meenakshi Chaudhary as the female lead, with important roles played by Sneha, Laila, Prashant, and Prabhu Deva. This film is notable for its use of de-aging technology. With rumors circulating that this might be Vijay's last film before entering politics, expectations for the film were quite high. How did the film turn out? How much did it captivate the audience? Did it provide another unforgettable success for Vijay or not? Let’s find out in this review. Plot Gandhi (Vijay), a special anti-terrorism squad officer, conducts various successful missions with his teammates Sunil (Prashant), Ajay (Ajmal), and Kalyan Sundaram (Prabhu Deva). However, he keeps his job a secret from his wife Anu (Sneha). During one mission abroad, his five-year-old son dies. Believing her husband to be responsible, Anu distances herself from Gandhi. Distraught, Gandhi leaves the force. Years later, on a trip to Moscow, he encounters his son Jeevan (Vijay), whom he thought was dead, alive. Overjoyed, he brings him back to India. From then on, Gandhi’s acquaintances start dying one by one. Who is responsible for these deaths? How did his presumed-dead son come back? How does Gandhi stop the killings? These questions form the crux of the story. Performances Vijay delivers a dual role, excelling as Gandhi but the young Vijay’s digitally aged look as Jeevan might feel a bit off, not entirely convincing. Vijay shines again in action sequences and emotional scenes, proving his star quality. Meenakshi Chaudhary as the heroine doesn’t have much of a role, feeling more like a guest appearance. Prashant, Ajmal, and Prabhu Deva as squad members are adequate but not outstanding. Jayaram, as the head of the squad, captivates with his performance. Sneha impresses with her acting as Gandhi’s wife. Tamil youth hero Shiva Karthikeyan makes a mark in a cameo, and Trisha excites in a special song appearance. The rest of the cast performs adequately within their roles. Direction Director Venkat Prabhu’s storyline lacks novelty. The narrative of a hero working in defense and the villain raising his son to turn against him has been seen many times before. However, the scenes detailing the son’s revenge feel engaging. The first half is mostly spent introducing the characters, and the plot progresses as expected until the pre-interval. The interval scene raises curiosity for the second half, which, although predictable, includes some twists that surprise the audience. The comedy and dialogues are deeply rooted in Tamil culture, which might not entirely appeal to the Telugu audience. However, Vijay’s fans will likely find the film quite entertaining. Technically On the technical front, the songs by Yuvan Shankar Raja are forgettable, not leaving a lasting impact. However, the background music enhances the action sequences, elevating them to another level. The graphic department could have done better, especially with Vijay’s de-aging look. Editing is competent. The production values are high, showing no compromise in terms of budget. Plus Points - Vijay’s performance - Action sequences - Climax Minus Points - Predictable plot - Slow first half Telugu.yousay.tv Rating : 2.5/5

      VD12: Exciting News for Vijay Deverakonda Fans.. A First in His Career!
      VD12: Exciting News for Vijay Deverakonda Fans.. A First in His Career!
      Vijay Deverakonda  is one of Tollywood's most popular young actors who became an overnight star with the film 'Arjun Reddy.' With successes like 'Pelli Choopulu', 'Taxiwaala', and 'Geetha Govindham', he secured a solid position in the Telugu film industry. However, Vijay has been facing a rough patch recently, as his last three films, 'Liger', 'Kushi', and 'Family Star', did not perform well at the box office. This makes his upcoming project, 'VD12', highly anticipated not only by Vijay but also by his fans. Producer Naga Vamshi recently made some interesting remarks about this film, turning it into a hot topic in the industry. In Two Parts... Vijay Deverakonda  is currently working on a film directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, tentatively titled 'VD 12'. Producer Naga Vamshi has spoken about the film, revealing that it will be presented in two parts. "I am not taking any risks with the Vijay Deverakonda  film. We have content sufficient for two parts, and depending on the outcome of the first, we will proceed with the second. Gowtam Tinnanuri has beautifully crafted the story. We are confident it will be a blockbuster," said Naga Vamshi. Interestingly, this is the first time any of Vijay's films are planned as a two-part series, as all his previous films were single installments. If everything goes as planned, fans might get to see sequels in Vijay's career. With 'VD 12' already under high expectations, Naga Vamshi's comments have only heightened the excitement. The Captivating First Look! The makers of 'VD12' recently released the first look poster of the film. In it, Vijay appears in a massive look. The caption intriguingly states, "Fate has called... a bloodbath awaits... a new king will rise." Moreover, the makers have announced that the film is scheduled for release on March 28 next year. They are putting significant effort into delivering a theatrical experience and have requested that leaked content not be shared. In a Dual Role...! The film unit has announced that Vijay Deverakonda  will appear as a powerful police officer in 'VD 12'. A previously released poster in a vague khaki outfit hinted at this role. However, the recently released first look shows Vijay in a local gangster persona, raising questions about whether he might be playing dual roles or if the director is presenting one character in two dimensions. Regardless, Vijay's look promises a mass festivity in theaters. Vijay's Future Projects! Aside from 'VD12', Vijay Deverakonda  has two more exciting projects lined up. After 'Family Star', producer Dil Raju is set to produce another film with Vijay, directed by Ravikiran Kola. Additionally, director Rahul Sankrityan will helm another project with Vijay set against a periodic genre backdrop in the Rayalaseema region, potentially starring Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead.

      Vishwambhara: Dissatisfaction from Megastar on Certain Scenes? Planning a Reshoot!
      Vishwambhara: Dissatisfaction from Megastar on Certain Scenes? Planning a Reshoot!
      The film 'Kalki 2898 AD' starring Prabhas made a sensational impact at the Indian box office, known to all. Directed by Nag Ashwin, this futuristic mythology entertainer amassed over Rs. 1100 crore, receiving widespread acclaim for its massive sets and Hollywood-level VFX work, stunning all viewers as a visual wonder. Meanwhile, 'Vishwambhara', another upcoming film starring Megastar Chiranjeevi, seems to be following in 'Kalki’s' footsteps, with talks suggesting Megastar is taking a leaf out of darling Prabhas’s book. Following 'Kalki’s' Path in 'Vishwambhara'! For the 'Kalki 2898 AD' film, director Nag Ashwin constructed 16 massive sets that greatly contributed to the CG work, providing a fantastic visual feast for the audience. The 'Vishwambhara' movie team is reportedly adopting a similar strategy. Director Vashista is striving to create an entirely new world for this film, with 8 large sets already constructed and plans for another 4 underway. Art Director AS Prakash is working hard to create these spectacular sets, currently being built at Annapurna Studios. 'Vishwambhara' to Top After 'Kalki'! After 'Kalki 2898 AD', 'Vishwambhara' is said to be the next big film with extensive set constructions, expected to deliver a visual treat on par with 'Kalki'. Megastar Chiranjeevi is reportedly playing a unique role that he has never attempted before, promising to thrill the audience with action sequences reminiscent of hero Prabhas. Chiranjeevi himself shared a video of his workout preparation for the film, indicating his dedication to the role. Trisha is co-starring with him in this movie. Megastar's Dissatisfaction Recent buzz suggests that Megastar Chiranjeevi is somewhat dissatisfied with 'Vishwambhara'. He has recently reviewed the footage from the shooting and has expressed concerns about certain scenes that deviate from the script. He has reportedly suggested changes to director Vashista. This has led to talks within the industry about potential reshoots for those scenes. Despite this, the makers have announced 'Vishwambhara' as a Sankranti gift, though there is speculation about whether the release date might change due to the reshoots.

      Vishal vs Tamil Producers Council Controversy in Kollywood!
      Vishal vs Tamil Producers Council Controversy in Kollywood!
      Tamil cinema's star, Vishal, is popular not only in Tamil but also in Telugu cinema for his action-packed films, which have garnered a massive following. Known for his direct approach, Vishal often finds himself in the midst of controversies. Recently, he has become the center of a new dispute with the Tamil Producers Council. In this context, he posted a defiant message on X (formerly Twitter), stating, "Try to stop me." What prompted Vishal to post this? What is the nature of his controversy with the producers' council? Let’s delve into the details. What happened? Vishal previously served as the President of the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC). During his tenure, he faced allegations of misusing Rs. 12 crores. More recently, Vishal indirectly targeted the Tamil Nadu government and some producers in his comments about the monopoly over theaters in Tamil Nadu. He criticized the control a few individuals have over movie release timings and their overarching control of the cinema industry. Aggravated by these remarks, the TFPC imposed sanctions on him and issued an ultimatum that films should no longer be made with Vishal involved. Vishal's Strong Warning! Firmly opposing the orders of the TFPC, Vishal posted an interesting tweet, making it clear that he will not stop making films regardless of the circumstances. He warned that those who call themselves producers will never be able to produce films if they try to stop him. He also attempted to clarify the allegations regarding the misuse of funds in his post, asserting that the funds were used for the welfare of council members, providing health insurance to the elderly and economically struggling. "Didn’t Mr. Kathiresan know this decision was made with your team? Just do your job properly. There's a lot to be done for the industry, including dealing with double taxation and managing theater expenses. I will keep making films. Try to stop me," he wrote in a lengthy post on X, which has now gone viral. It remains to be seen how the Tamil Producers Council will respond to these comments. https://twitter.com/VishalKOfficial/status/1816832712193573070 How is Vishal popular? Belonging to the Tamil film industry, Vishal, born to producer G.K. Reddy on August 29, 1975, made his film debut with 'Prema Chadarangam' (2004). Although primarily active in Tamil cinema, many of his films have been dubbed into Telugu, bringing him fame in Telugu-speaking regions as well. Films like 'Pandem Kodi', 'Pogaru', 'Bharani', 'Pooja', and 'Abhimanyudu' have made him popular among Telugu audiences. Recently, Vishal appeared in the Telugu audience with 'Rathnam' (2024), which did not make a significant impact. He is currently acting in 'Thupparivaalan 2', a sequel to the 2017 film 'Detective'.

The film Anthahpuram, featuring Soundarya, Sai Kumar, Prakash Raj, and Jagapathi Babu, was a massive success at the box office. Soundarya delivered an outstanding performance as a mother protecting her child from her cruel uncle. When a netizen on X asked Krishna Vamsi which of today’s actresses could fit into Anthahpuram, he replied, "I can’t imagine anyone replacing Soundarya. However, today's actresses are very talented and mesmerizing with their performances. I respect them." The netizen then queried whether Nivetha Thomas or Shraddha Kapoor would be suitable, to which Krishna Vamsi opined that Samantha and Sai Pallavi could be perfect for Soundarya’s role. This post is now trending wildly online, with fans of Samantha and Sai Pallavi making it go viral. Can They Replace Soundarya?

The film features key performances by Faria Abdullah, Satya, Vennela Kishore, Rohini, and Sunil. The movie captured everyone's attention when actor Prabhas launched the trailer, which was full of laughs, heightening expectations. How did the film turn out? Did it impress the Telugu audience?

Faria Abdullah also lands a substantial role that is memorable post her character in 'Chitti'. Vennela Kishore adds his unique flavor of comedy, while Sunil and Rohini do justice to their significant roles. Other actors also performed adequately. Direction Director Ritesh Rana crafts stories revolving around drugs, guns, and money. This time is no different, blending kidnapping drama with humor to entertain the audience.

The director keeps the first half a fun ride, though he struggles a bit in the second half where some scenes drag. The climax also feels predictable, a minor drawback. Technically On the technical front, Kaala Bhairava's background score is a major plus, elevating many scenes effectively. The cinematography is commendable, but the editing could have been tighter. The production values are high. Plus Points - Sri Simha and Satya’s performances - Comedy - Background music Minus Points - Some dragging scenes - Predictable climax Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 3/5

The success of this film has turned all eyes towards Prasanth Varma's upcoming projects, and the director has previously announced that a sequel to 'Hanuman' is also on the cards. Currently, he is busy preparing the script for the sequel. In a recent interview with an English media outlet, Prasanth Varma shared interesting details about the release of 'Jai Hanuman' and about their cinematic universe, which has become a hot topic in the industry. 'Responsibility has increased' Director Prasanth Varma expressed that the pan-India success of 'Hanuman' has increased the responsibility on him. "If 'Hanuman' had only collected Rs. 100 crores, we would have released the sequel by now," he mentioned. But the film exceeded their expectations in collections, which means there's more responsibility to work on 'Jai Hanuman'. Varma assured that they are working hard on the script for 'Jai Hanuman', aiming to meet and surpass everyone's expectations. He promised to deliver exactly what the audience expects to see on screen. 'VFX work ahead' The VFX work of 'Hanuman' was a major highlight, receiving more praise than the hundreds of crores spent on 'Adipurush' for its graphics. Responding to this, Prasanth Varma mentioned that for 'Hanuman', they started the VFX work after shooting, but for the sequel 'Jai Hanuman', they are preparing the VFX ahead of time. This approach will save time during post-production. Shooting for 'Jai Hanuman' has not yet started. Bollywood stars are confirmed! Prasanth Varma made intriguing remarks about his cinematic universe, revealing that he has been in talks with some Bollywood stars for his films. He confirmed that these stars would definitely be part of his projects but mentioned that it might take some time. He also clarified that it would take some time before 'Jai Hanuman' goes on floors, as 'Adheera' is set to release first, followed by two more films he is currently working on. Other directors are also working on these projects, including one with Mokshagna. Varma aims to release at least one or two films every year. Movie with Mokshagna to start It's known that a film is forthcoming in the combination of Nandamuri Mokshagna Teja and director Prasanth Varma.

In the poster, Mokshagna appeared in a handsome look with a smiling face and a fully fit physique, making him look every bit the hero material. The look went viral on social media, with Nandamuri fans and cinema lovers wishing Mokshagna all the best. https://twitter.com/PrasanthVarma/status/1831921862609154407 Linkup with 'Jai Hanuman'! The film with Mokshagna Teja, directed by Prasanth Varma, is tentatively titled 'PVCU 2'. Varma had previously stated that every film in his cinematic universe would link with his next film. In this context, 'PVCU 2' will pave the way for the release of 'Jai Hanuman'. This ensures that Mokshagna's film will definitely have a connection with 'Jai Hanuman', arousing curiosity among Nandamuri fans about how this linkup will unfold. Fans are eagerly anticipating what plan Prasanth Varma has concocted as they comment on their excitement.

      Aho Vikramarka Movie Review: Dev Gill's 'Aho! Vikramarka' Struggles to Impress

His latest film as a protagonist, 'Aho! Vikramarka,directed by Trikoti, is released on August 30. How did the film turn out? Did hero Dev Gill succeed? Let's find out in this review. Plot In Pune, 1200 laborers from a colony disappear without a trace for 25 years, leaving their families in despair, not knowing whether they are alive or dead. During this period, Vikramarka (Dev Gill) is transferred to the Pune police station as an SI. Initially, he colluded with the drug mafia led by Bilal (Posani Krishna Murali). Influenced by his girlfriend Archana (Chitra Shukla), he transforms into an honest police officer. What incident prompted Vikramarka's change? What happened to the missing laborers? Was Vikramarka able to save them? What challenges did he face in this process? This is the story. Performances Dev Gill has shown his mark in action scenes. With experience playing villains in various films, he seemed to handle action effortlessly. However, he struggled significantly in love scenes and emotional sequences, failing to express emotions convincingly. Chitra Shukla delivered a solid performance as the heroine, fitting well into her role. Praveen and Tejaswini Pandit, as the villain and ACP Bhavani respectively, were compelling. Posani Krishna Murali and Sayaji Shinde impressed with their seasoned acting. The rest of the cast was satisfactory. Direction Directed by Peta Trikoti, the film reminds one of Telugu hits like 'Temper' and 'Pataas.' However, the plot lacks novelty, and the narration isn't engaging. The director failed to extract compelling performances corresponding to the story's demands. The love track between the hero and heroine feels quite tedious, and Dev Gill's romantic looks recall his villain roles. Nonetheless, Trikoti made an effort to showcase his style in the fight scenes, which are somewhat interesting when the hero confronts the villains. Technically... The art department performed well. Ravi Basrur's music was underwhelming, though the background score was passable in places. The production values were high, with no compromise on the budget.

      Kalki Vs Rayaan OTT: 'Rayaan' Surprises 'Kalki' with National Level Trending!
      Kalki Vs Rayaan OTT: 'Rayaan' Surprises 'Kalki' with National Level Trending!
      The film 'Kalki 2898 AD,' starring Prabhas and directed by Nag Ashwin, created a sensation at the box office, garnering over Rs. 1200 crores. Many were eagerly awaiting its OTT release. On Thursday (August 22), 'Kalki' became available for streaming on two platforms. It was expected to dominate OTT as well, but unexpectedly, it faced stiff competition from 'Rayaan.' This surprising turn of events has shocked Prabhas’s fans. Rayaan Outshines Kalki! The film 'Rayaan,' directed and led by Tamil star Dhanush, was released in theaters on July 26 and achieved significant success, earning over Rs. 150 crores, marking it as the highest-grossing Tamil film of the year. Recently, it debuted on Amazon Prime. Just a day before, 'Kalki' was also released on Amazon in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada languages. It was anticipated that 'Rayaan' views might decrease due to 'Kalki's impact. However, surprisingly, 'Rayaan' excelled with even higher views than 'Kalki,' trending at number one nationally, pushing 'Kalki' to the second spot. https://twitter.com/DhanushAdmirers/status/1827230852377669864 Is This Why Rayaan Dominated? There seems to be a strong reason why 'Rayaan' received more admiration on OTT than 'Kalki.' Many had already watched 'Kalki 2898 AD' in theaters, and some even repeatedly. In contrast, 'Rayaan,' despite its success and buzz as a routine revenge drama, was not heavily promoted for big-screen viewings, leading many cinema lovers to hold off watching it until its OTT release. As expected, once 'Rayaan' hit the streaming service, everyone rushed to watch it first. Given that many had already seen 'Kalki,' OTT enthusiasts were more eager to watch 'Rayaan' first, leading to its prominent streaming success. Big Salute to Dhanush’s Direction! The film 'Rayaan,' which rained cash in theaters, is achieving similar success on OTT. The movie contains many elements that captivate audiences, notably Dhanush’s directorial expertise. The narrative, screenplay, and performances by Dhanush, Sundeep, S.J. Suryah, and Dushara Vijayan are particularly engaging. Dhanush’s portrayal in the fight sequences showcased his formidable presence, setting the action apart from typical films with its realistic feel. The drama and emotions are well crafted, keeping the audience engaged without any dull moments, earning Dhanush widespread acclaim. Producer Surprises Dhanush Prominent producer Kalanithi Maran produced 'Rayaan,' under Dhanush’s direction and lead role. Following the film’s super success, the producer uniquely thanked Dhanush by presenting two cheques (reflecting his dual roles as director and hero), which went viral on the internet. However, the exact amount on the cheques remains undisclosed, leading netizens to speculate and comment their guesses.

      Bollywood Vs South Industries: Has a Cold War Started Between Bollywood and South Industries?
      Bollywood Vs South Industries: Has a Cold War Started Between Bollywood and South Industries?
      The current situation seems to be evolving into a Bollywood versus South India conflict. There are allegations that some Bollywood celebrities are struggling to accept the fact that South Indian films are creating a sensation on a pan-India level. In the past, national awards were mostly won by Hindi films, which also used to dominate in terms of box office collections. However, the situation has drastically changed over the past few years. Especially after "Baahubali," the influence of South Indian films at the Indian box office has significantly increased. Meanwhile, with the exception of one or two, Bollywood hasn't released films that made a significant impact. This has led to growing resentment and dissatisfaction among Bollywood actors toward South Indian films. In this context, Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi's use of derogatory language against actor Prabhas has sparked controversy. Recently, a South Indian star's harsh comments about Bollywood films have fueled speculations that a cold war has begun between Bollywood and South Indian industries. ‘Bollywood is Undermining Our Country’ Kannada star Rishab Shetty made controversial remarks about Bollywood. He claimed that Bollywood has portrayed our country in a negative light at international film festivals. He stated that he is trying to make films that the country can be proud of. In a recent interview, Rishab Shetty shared his opinion about Bollywood. "Some Indian films, especially Bollywood movies, portray our country negatively. Our films are invited to global events, and they roll out the red carpet for them. That's why I want to make sure I speak proudly about my country. I want to showcase the greatness of my country, my state, and my language to the world," said Rishab. These comments went viral, with some netizens supporting Rishab while others criticized him, sharing scenes from some of his past films. https://twitter.com/i/status/1826135635754631603 Arshad Warsi's Grudge Against Prabhas Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi recently spoke in an interview. While discussing the movie 'Kalki 2898 AD,' he expressed his jealousy towards Prabhas. Arshad said that he watched 'Kalki' and didn't like the movie. He compared Prabhas's character unfavorably to Big B Amitabh Bachchan's character Ashwatthama, saying that Prabhas's role fell short. He mentioned feeling sad while watching Prabhas on screen, expressing his disappointment. "Prabhas… I feel bad saying this, but he looks like a joker. I want to see him in a Mad Max-style movie. He should be like Mel Gibson in it. I still don't understand why they made him look like that," he said. Prabhas's fans have expressed their displeasure over Arshad's comments. https://twitter.com/i/status/1825097374680621099 Telugu Heroes' Strong Counter Tollywood hero Sudheer Babu responded to Arshad Warsi's comments on Prabhas in his own style. He said that criticism is not wrong, but speaking without control is definitely wrong, criticizing Arshad on the X platform. Sudheer mentioned that he never expected such unprofessional comments to come from Arshad Warsi and made it clear that comments from people with such small minds cannot affect someone like Prabhas. Young actor Aadi Saikumar also condemned Arshad's comments, indirectly criticizing him without mentioning his name. "Prabhas, who has no insecurity, is the real deal. Without him, there wouldn't be a 'Kalki' movie. I thought his role was amazing. Maybe Arshad is just jealous," he wrote on X. https://twitter.com/isudheerbabu/status/1825746561495871657 https://twitter.com/iamaadisaikumar/status/1825250706938380360 What Happened to Bollywood? : Allu Arjun In recent years, South Indian films have been released on a pan-India level and achieved great success compared to Bollywood. Bollywood director Nikhil Advani recently shared interesting comments made by Allu Arjun about Bollywood. "In the past, I wanted to make a film with Allu Arjun. I met him for that purpose. He expressed his disappointment with the state of Bollywood. 'What happened to Bollywood? Why have you forgotten how to showcase heroes?' he asked. What he said is true—South Indian films showcase heroism and the key emotions in a way that connects the audience to the story. At one point, Bollywood produced many such films that achieved great success. Today, that element is missing in Hindi movies," said Nikhil.
