Several days ago, a Rave party in Bangalore caused a sensation across Karnataka and the two Telugu states, primarily due to the involvement of the renowned actress Hema. Initially, there were widespread reports suggesting that Hema, along with several others, had consumed drugs at the party. However, Hema denied any knowledge about the rave party and clarified in front of the media that she did not consume any drugs.



A Shock for Actress Hema



The Bangalore police have recently filed a charge sheet related to the rave party case, naming a total of 88 individuals as accused. This comprehensive charge sheet spans 1086 pages. It's particularly noteworthy that Actress Hema's name has been included in this document, which has become a hot topic in Telugu states. According to the charge sheet, police have listed evidence that Hema consumed MDMA at the party, supported by medical reports. Along with Hema, 79 others who attended the party have been named as accused in the charge sheet, and charges have also been filed against another 9 individuals who organized the event under various sections, including NDPS Section 27, marking Hema as a notable accused. Interestingly, another actor who attended the party tested negative for drugs, which contrasts with the current predicament facing Hema, bringing her case back into focus.







Will Hema Be Arrested?



Previously, Hema was arrested in connection with the Bangalore party case but was granted bail by a local court in June. Her lawyer argued in court that no drugs were found with her, and medical tests conducted ten days after the incident supported her claim. The judge, after hearing the arguments, granted her conditional bail, stating that the police had not provided evidence of her consuming drugs. However, the recent developments in the charge sheet could potentially lead to the revocation of her bail. There is now a chance that Bangalore police might arrest Hema again.







'Ready for Anything If Proven'



Responding to her name appearing in the rave party charge sheet, Tollywood actress Hema spoke to a media outlet, reiterating that she did not consume any drugs. She stated that the Bangalore police did not take any blood samples from her. Hema declared that she is ready to face any consequences if the police can prove that she took drugs. Everyone is keenly watching to see how the Bangalore rave party case will unfold further.

The film 'Kalki 2898 AD,' directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Prabhas, has generated global buzz, with predictions of becoming a super hit. It has impressed audiences worldwide with its Hollywood-level visuals and the actors' remarkable transformations. Achieving this success required significant effort from the Kalki team. As the film continues to draw special attention, let's delve into some secrets behind 'Kalki 2898 AD'.



40 years later



It is well known that Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan played major roles in 'Kalki 2898 AD'. Amitabh portrayed Ashwatthama and Kamal Haasan as the antagonist Supreme Yashkin. Remarkably, this film marks nearly 40 years since they last acted together, their previous collaboration being the 1985 film 'Geraftaar'. After 4 decades, they have reunited for 'Kalki'.







Kamal’s New Getup



Kamal Haasan's appearance in 'Kalki 2898 AD' is quite unique and distinct. Numerous looks were considered in the process of finalizing his appearance, none of which initially satisfied director Nag Ashwin. Eventually, the Kalki team consulted Hollywood makeup experts in Los Angeles, leading to the final look that Kamal Haasan sports in the film.







5 hours for Makeup



Ashwatthama's look in the movie has also greatly impressed the audience. Amitabh Bachchan, at 81, has brilliantly embodied this character. The makeup for Ashwatthama took about three hours to apply and an additional two hours to remove, totaling five hours dedicated solely to makeup, according to the film unit.







₹4 crores for Bujji



The futuristic vehicle 'Bujji', ridden by Prabhas in 'Kalki', was a significant endeavor by the film unit. It was developed with the cooperation of the Mahindra Research Valley team and Jayam Auto Engineering in Coimbatore. Reportedly, around ₹4 crores were spent just on this car.







700 VFX Shots



Director Nag Ashwin created three futuristic worlds in 'Kalki': Kashi, Shambala, and a complex. Kashi is depicted as lifeless, Shambala as a refugee zone, and the complex as resource-rich. To showcase these, the film extensively used VFX, employing around 700 VFX shots.







Hollywood VFX



'Kalki 2898 AD' is being talked about as a visual wonder, thanks to the involvement of Hollywood-level VFX companies. The VFX team that has worked on major Hollywood films like Harry Potter, Interstellar, Dune, and Blade Runner worked on 'Kalki'.







Record-breaking Budget



'Kalki 2898 AD' stands as the film with the highest budget in Indian cinema history, with production costs reportedly exceeding ₹600 crores. According to trade sources, a significant portion of this budget was spent not just on actor salaries and sets, but predominantly on high-quality visuals and advanced VFX.

Mahesh Babu Breaks the Internet with Stunning Look at Anant Ambani's Wedding


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



How much were the weekend collections?



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







Further decline expected!



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







Day 1 collections?



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







A significant drop compared to other films!



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







Why did the collections drop?



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







What is the story about?



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






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


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.

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



Trending on a Global Scale



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







Behind in Amazon



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







'The Best of This Generation’…



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







Prabhas: The Biggest Star



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

Devara Trailer: Is the Trailer Date Locked?


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.

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.

Mahesh Babu for 'Devara' Pre-Release?



There is strong speculation online that Mahesh Babu will attend the pre-release event of 'Devara'. It is discussed that director Koratala Siva has invited Mahesh to the event. However, Mahesh has yet to make a final decision on this. There is a possibility that clarity will emerge soon. Mahesh and director Koratala share a good rapport, having delivered successful films like 'Srimanthudu' and 'Bharat Ane Nenu'. Film circles suggest that Mahesh is likely to attend, which would significantly boost expectations for 'Devara'.







Event in Hyderabad



The makers are planning to conduct the pre-release event of the film 'Devara' on September 22 in Hyderabad. Initially, there was consideration to hold the event in Andhra Pradesh, but finally, Hyderabad was chosen. Meanwhile, the trailer of 'Devara' was released this week. The action-packed trailer has received a positive response, increasing the hype for the film. NTR's action and Koratala's direction were highlights of the trailer, and Anirudh Ravichander's background music was also well-received.







Tarak in Sandeep's Movie!



News is making rounds online about the upcoming movie 'Spirit', directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Prabhas. There is speculation that Tarak will appear as the antagonist in this movie. The suggestion for Tarak to play the villain in 'Spirit' came from Sandeep himself, given the impact Tarak can bring to such roles, as demonstrated in his film 'Jai Lava Kusa' where he played a character with negative shades. If Tarak agrees, the expectations for 'Spirit' are sure to rise significantly.






Devara: Have You Seen the Interview Promo of 'Devara'? Punches by Tarak and Janhvi..


The Pan India film 'Devara' (Devara: Part 1), featuring Man of Masses Jr NTR and star director Koratala Siva, is set to release globally with grandeur on September 27. As the release date approaches, the film team is fully engaged in promotions. They are generating significant hype for the film with back-to-back interviews in Bollywood, while Tarak is also dropping hints, heightening fans' anticipation. Amidst this excitement, Tarak’s fans received some unsettling news. There’s a widespread rumor on social media that the hit Daavudi song has been removed from the movie. Let’s uncover the truth behind this.



No Need to Worry!



Young music sensation Anirudh Ravichander has composed the music for Devara. As part of the promotions, three songs have been released so far. Besides 'Fear' and 'Chuttamalle,' the third single, 'Daavudi,' was released and created a sensation. These three songs have shaken up YouTube and social media with millions of views. However, the latest buzz suggested that this song would not appear in the film. Due to the film's lengthy runtime, it was rumored that some scenes and this song were cut. Fans of the Daavudi song are disappointed, and there has been no clear communication from the film unit. However, given the song's popularity, if it’s not possible in the middle of the movie, it’s almost certain that it will be played during the end credits, as confirmed by close sources.

Tarak Stirs Up a Storm



On September 4, the makers released the 'Daavudi' song from 'Devara,' and it quickly trended. This song faced trolls comparing it to the 'Arabic Kuthu' song from the movie 'Beast.' Some even commented on NTR’s height compared to Janhvi. However, Tarak swept all these aside with his energetic dance performance. Janhvi’s steps and charm also added a special allure to the song, which has racked up millions of views on YouTube. Many fans feel that watching such a song in theaters is a real thrill, so chances of this song being removed are very slim.

As part of the Devara film promotions, the released songs are currently making waves on YouTube. Four of Devara’s songs have secured spots in the top 25 trending list.

Even before its release, Devara has set several records and has now surpassed the movie 'Pushpa 2' in pre-release interest on BookMyShow. The platform recently revealed that while 334,000 people showed interest in 'Pushpa 2,' 'Devara' has attracted interest from 336,000 people.

Rumors Swirl Around Jr NTR's 'Devara': Is the Hit 'Daavudi' Song Really Cut?


The movie "Devara," directed by star director Koratala Siva and starring the 'Man of Masses' Tarak, has created a Pan-India buzz. Following a global hit like 'RRR,' Tarak's new film has been eagerly awaited by both his fans and cinema lovers. With the film set to release on September 27, the Devara team is busy with promotions. However, the focus on the North Indian market has led to dissatisfaction among the Telugu audience. So far, none of the promotional events for Devara have originated from the Telugu states, raising concerns that the Devara team is neglecting Tollywood.



Trolls on Chennai Promotions



As part of its promotions, the Devara team landed in Chennai on Tuesday (September 17). The event featured Tarak, along with actress Janhvi Kapoor, director Koratala Siva, music director Anirudh, and Tamil actor Kalaiyarasan. During this, Tarak expressed his desire to work with Tamil director Vetrimaaran, which although captivated the Tamil audience, left Telugu cinema lovers feeling slighted. Trolls are questioning why a star like Tarak would request a Tamil director to make a movie with him, suggesting he is diminishing his own stature.







Devara Team on The Kapil Sharma Show!



The Devara team has also been conducting back-to-back promotions in Mumbai, attempting to hype up the movie. As part of this, Tarak appeared on the very popular 'The Kapil Sharma Show Season 2.' Being a major Bollywood star, it’s almost obligatory to appear on this show, which has a fan base that transcends regional boundaries. Bollywood stars believe that appearing on this show greatly boosts their movie promotions. During the 'RRR' promotions, Rajamouli, Tarak, and Ram Charan had made an appearance on this show. Recently, Tarak revisited the show for Devara, along with Janhvi Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Saif Ali Khan. The promo, which also features Team India captain Rohit Sharma &amp; Co, has been captivating. This episode is scheduled to stream on Netflix at 8 PM on September 21.

Tarak in Hindi Bigg Boss 18?



The Hindi Bigg Boss show enjoys significant popularity. With Salman Khan hosting the upcoming Hindi Bigg Boss Season 18, there is strong buzz that the Devara team will promote their movie on the show. Official confirmation from the Devara team is pending, but it is evident from the current strategy that Tarak &amp; Co. are not missing any opportunity for promotions in the North. Bigg Boss 18 is set to stream starting October 4, by which time Devara will have already been released. It remains to be seen if the Devara team will participate in Hindi Bigg Boss.







Interview with Animal Director



Recently, the Devara team was interviewed by Animal director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The chat session, which included Tarak, director Koratala Siva, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, was notably entertaining. Sandeep posed some intriguing questions to the Devara team, to which Janhvi and Tarak responded in their unique styles. Tarak mentioned that Devara is an action drama that will thrill the masses. Koratala Siva spoke about his long-standing friendship with Tarak, and the team mentioned that they had spent 35 days filming an underwater sequence. Janhvi claimed Devara would be the best movie in everyone’s careers. Sandeep playfully commented on the movie's runtime, and when asked how long it was, he said with a laugh that it was 3 hours and 24 minutes. Despite Sandeep Reddy Vanga being a Telugu director, the entire interview was conducted in English, which has left Telugu viewers unable to connect. Click the link below for the full interview.

Where Are the Tollywood Promotions?



Lately, the Devara team has been focused predominantly on Bollywood, believing that effective promotions there could translate into significant box office returns. Even the movie’s key trailer was released in Mumbai. There have been comments suggesting it would be beneficial to similarly promote the movie in Telugu, given Tarak’s star image and expected box office pull in Telugu-speaking regions. Compared to the promotions conducted in the North, there seems to be little planning for significant promotional activities in Telugu. Fans are surprised that young heroes Siddhu and Vishwak are interviewing NTR and Koratala, raising questions about the level of NTR’s engagement. There are criticisms that leveraging his close relationships with big names like Mahesh, Prabhas, and Rajamouli for interviews would have been more beneficial for Telugu promotions. The interview Rajamouli conducted with the 'Salaar' team is often cited as an example. So far, the focus on Bollywood in promotions has been strongly criticized for overshadowing efforts in Tollywood. How the Devara team will address this remains to be seen.






Devara Promotions: Are Devara Promotions Not Heading in the Right Direction? Is Tollywood Being Neglected?


Cast: Nandu, Tejaswi Madivada, Priya Anand, Ashutosh Rana, Pavani Reddy, Keshav Deepak, Sudha, Bhanu Chander, and others.



Director: Anish Kuruvilla



Cinematography: Naveen Yadav



Music: Shaktikanth Karthik



Editing: Umair Hasan, Fayaz Ray



Producers: Gopichand Achanta, Ram Achanta



OTT: Disney+ Hotstar



Starring Ashutosh Rana, Priya Anand, Nandu, Sonia Agarwal, and Tejaswini Madivada in leading roles, the latest Telugu web series "The Mystery of Moksha Island" has been directed by Anish Kuruvilla. This suspense crime thriller has debuted on the prominent OTT platform Hotstar. How is this series? Has it pleased the OTT audience? Let's find out in this review.



Plot



Nobel laureate Indian scientist Vishwak Sen (Ashutosh Rana) dies unexpectedly in a flight accident, leaving behind an estate worth nearly ₹24,000 crores. Before his death, he writes a will distributing his wealth equally among all his relatives, with one condition: they must spend a week on Moksha Island. Agreeing to this, Vishwak Sen's family members land on the island, but unexpected events unfold, leading to their deaths one by one. What is the mystery of Moksha Island? Why did Vishwak impose the condition to stay on the island for a week? Are the people who went there really Vishwak's family members or not? What is Vishwak's connection to Moksha Island? That is the story.



Performance



The web series "The Mystery of Moksha Island" features several actors. Among them, Priya Anand, Nandu, and Ashutosh Rana stand out. Nandu justifies his role as a young man determined to solve the island mystery, while Ashutosh Rana is compelling as a cunning scientist. Tejaswi Madivada and Akshara Gowda attract more with their glamour than their acting. Roshan Kanakala, son of the famous anchor Suma Kanakala, impresses in a gay role. Bhanuchander, Sonia Agarwal, Ajay Katurvar, and Satyakrishna, along with others, do justice to their roles with their performances.



Direction



Director Anish Kuruvilla has crafted a well-written mystery story set on an island. He designed characters with varied backgrounds for the series, showing an unknown side to each character. Who is killing those who set foot on the island? Episodes where everyone suspects each other build suspense. The director engages the audience with numerous questions about the island over six episodes. The way he unravels the mysteries in the final two episodes is satisfying, although having too many characters on screen can be confusing. Romantic and bold scenes might be uncomfortable for family audiences. The climax might not be as satisfying as expected. However, those who enjoy thriller genres will likely appreciate this series.



Technically



On the technical front, Naveen Yadav's cinematographer is impressive. He beautifully captures the beach episodes. The art department also performs well; the lab setup looks realistic. The background music provided by Shaktikanth Karthik is decent. The editing is okay, and the production values are good.



Plus Points



- Acting of the main cast



- Engaging narration



- Twists



Minus Points



- Bold content



- Too many characters

Amazon Great Indian Festival 2024: Grab the Apple MacBook Air M1 at Just ₹52,990


The Oscars hold a prestigious spot among global film enthusiasts and is a coveted goal for actors and filmmakers worldwide. This year, many expected 'Kalki 2898 AD' to be nominated for Best International Feature Film from India due to its international standards. However, in a surprising turn, the Hindi film 'Laapataa Ladies' was chosen as India’s entry for the 2025 Oscars. It appears the 'Kalki' team is planning to follow the strategy used by last year’s 'RRR'.



Was 'Kalki' Unjustly Overlooked?



Directed by Kiran Rao, 'Laapataa Ladies' has officially been selected as India’s entry for the 2025 Oscars. The Film Federation of India's jury, led by Assamese filmmaker Jahnu Barua and comprising 12 members, chose this film over others including 'Kalki 2898 AD', 'Hanuman', and 'Mangalavaaram' from Tollywood. Despite 'Kalki’s' international success, its omission has surprised cinema lovers, with some commenting that it faced the same injustice as 'RRR' the previous year.







'Kalki' in the Path of 'RRR'



Last year, 'RRR' did not secure a spot in the Best International Feature Film category, prompting director S.S. Rajamouli to submit it under general categories. It received nominations in 15 categories including Best Picture and Best Director, ultimately winning an Oscar for the song "Naatu Naatu" under Best Original Score. Now, the 'Kalki' team is considering a similar approach, hoping to be recognized in various general categories. If the Oscar committee considers and shortlists 'Kalki’s' nominations, it could officially compete. The 'Hanuman' team is also contemplating a general category submission.







Why 'Laapataa Ladies' Was Chosen



Jahnu Barua, chairman of the Film Federation of India, explained the decision for 'Laapataa Ladies', highlighting the film’s portrayal of Indian social structures and morality, presenting India in a significant light. After extensive deliberation over eight days, the jury selected 'Laapataa Ladies' from among 29 contenders. Director Kiran Rao expressed joy over the recognition of the hard work put into an impactful story, hoping for global admiration just as it was received in India.







Here are the Competing Films from the South!



Of the 29 films vying for an Oscar nomination, a notable number were from South India. From Tollywood, three films were in contention; from Kollywood, six managed to make the list, including 'Maharaja' featuring Vijay Sethupathi, 'Thangalaan' with Vikram, 'Kottukkaali' starring Soori, 'Jigarthanda Double X' by Lawrence - S.J. Suryah, 'Valai' directed by Mari Selvaraj, and 'Jam' directed and acted by Pari Elavazhagan. From the Malayalam industry, films like 'Attam', 'Aadujeevitham' (The Goat Life), 'All We Imagine as Light', and 'Ullujukku' made the list, totaling 13 South Indian films in the Oscar race. However, only 'Laapataa Ladies' has officially entered the Oscars from India, with further announcements about other films pending.







What Makes 'Laapataa Ladies' Special?



'Laapataa Ladies' reaffirms the saying "the story is the hero of the film." It tells the tale of two brides from a rural area who accidentally switch places during a train journey. The film unfolds their lives post this incident and how they find their way back to their husbands. Structured as a comedy drama, the film engages the audience while raising questions about the recognition of women in society and critiques patriarchal systems. Directed by Kiran, 13 years after her debut with 'Dhobi Ghat', the film received mixed responses at the box office but was well-received on OTT platforms.






Surprising Choice: ‘Laapataa Ladies’ to Represent India at the 2025 Oscars, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ Snubbed


The pre-release event for Devara, which was scheduled to be held on Sunday in Hyderabad, was abruptly canceled. The event, planned to take place at the Novotel Hotel, saw a massive crowd of fans, leading to chaos and the eventual cancellation by the organizers. Even Jr. NTR shared a special video expressing his disappointment. However, rumors on social media suggest that the cancellation was intentional and was done to attract national attention. Some netizens are raising logical questions about this situation. Let's take a look at the details.



Answers to These Questions?



The pre-release event for ‘Devara’ was planned to be held at 6 PM on Sunday at the Novotel Hotel. However, there are no records or visuals of Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor, music director Anirudh Ravichander, and Saif Ali Khan, who played the villain in the movie, landing in Hyderabad for the event. Netizens are pointing out that no airport visuals of these celebrities have surfaced. Moreover, just hours before the scheduled start of the event, Saif Ali Khan was reportedly seen in Mumbai with his family. On the other hand, a video posted by Janhvi after the event was canceled is also raising suspicions. In the video, Janhvi, speaking in Telugu, did not mention the cancellation of the event at all, leading to speculation that the video might have been pre-recorded.

Doubts on Tarak Too!



After the pre-release event was canceled, Jr. NTR expressed his disappointment, stating that he missed the opportunity to meet his fans. However, there are rumors online that Jr. NTR had booked a flight ticket to America at 11 PM on the same day as the event. Netizens are arguing that even if the event had taken place, it would have lasted until around 9:30 PM, making it impossible for Tarak to reach the airport in time, considering the traffic in Hyderabad. This has led to speculation that Jr. NTR had prior knowledge of the event cancellation and booked his flight to the US in advance. Additionally, it is alleged that tickets for the pre-release event were sold at prices ranging from ₹1000 to ₹3000, and there is no evidence of refunds being issued. Netizens are accusing the organizers of a big scam involving ticket sales.







Ticket Price Hike



The governments of both Telugu states have approved an increase in ticket prices for the movie ‘Devara,’ directed by Koratala Siva and starring Jr. NTR. A hike of ₹25 for single-screen ticket prices and ₹50 for multiplex tickets has been permitted. Furthermore, on September 27th, benefit shows were allowed in 29 theaters at 1 AM and special shows in all theaters across the state at 4 AM. Additionally, the price for all shows on the first day was allowed to increase by ₹100. The Andhra Pradesh government has also permitted a ticket price hike ranging from ₹60 to ₹135 and allowed six shows on the first day, with five shows daily until October 9th.
