Thandel, starring Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi, is generating significant buzz. The official trailer for the film was just released, and it gave fans a glimpse into the actor’s relationship with Vizag, a city that is dear to him. During the ceremony, Chaitanya spoke fondly of his connection to the city, highlighting the significance of Thandel’s box office performance there.

Chaitanya further highlighted that Vizag holds a special place in his heart, as Sobhita hails from the city. At the trailer launch, he humorously acknowledged the significance of Thandel’s success in Vizag, saying that he might lose face with his wife’s family if the film doesn’t perform well in the city. He said, “Whenever my movies release, I always inquire about their talk in Vizag. I believe any movie that runs well in Vizag will succeed worldwide. Vizag is very close to me.

There is no telling about tastes. Dev Patel’s senseless bloodbath Monkey Man (Dev plans a Hanuman avatar) has been nominated for a BAFTA award in the Outstanding Debut as director category. Sobhita Dhulipala who has a role as commodious as Jacqueline Fernandez in Fateh, is very happy.

I am happy for her. But not quite in the waltzy mode over the film. Watching Dev Patel’s much-extolled directorial debut, rightly banned in India and from Netflix where it was scheduled for streaming, is a painful experience. The stylized relentless violence, with stunt passages choreographed like the opposite of a ballet,are sickening in their self-important gratuitousness.

But I would forgive the endless pointless carnage—to each his own John Wick, I guess—were it not for the strange uncalled-for references to Hindu mythology that keep popping up with nagging regularity all through the sanguinary excursion, as if to remind...

Action movies are dismissed in some circles as mindless displays of violence, but many of the genre's best movies are just as deep and intelligent as any drama. The action genre tends to get a bad wrap, because people generalize the genre based on some of its least substantial popcorn flicks. While it's true that action has the potential for shallow spectacle, this isn't the norm.

Many of the best action movies ever have deep stories that leave audiences with a lot to think about, even if some people simply see them as explosive and entertaining. In many cases, the action is only given meaning by the dynamics between the different characters and their personal journeys. This helps make action movies more exciting, and it also makes them linger in the memory.

The Chacko Murder case persists as one of India’s longest unsolved mysteries. At the heart of the story lies Sukumara Kurup. Now what could be more authentic than a narrative grounded in real events? As interesting remain the details of the real case, Srinath Rajendran’s Kurup goes above and beyond to reinvent the thrill of the true-crime genre.

Kurup: The making

Dulquer Salmaan seamlessly delivers a performance of a lifetime in Kurup. But does that account for all that the film represents? As he goes on to increase his acting range, it is undeniably a non-linear storytelling technique that not only captures the essence of Kurup’s life but also emphasizes the moral ambiguities often inherent in crime thrillers.

The film does not shy away from portraying its protagonist in a multifaceted nuanced light, which challenges audiences to navigate their perceptions of right and wrong. The dramatic turns...

Kollywood Superstar Dhanush and Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth have been legally divorced. According to a news report on Sun TV, the Chennai Family Welfare Court granted the divorce to the former couple as they stated that they could not live together anymore. They will continue to co-parent their sons Linga and Yatra.

They had first announced their separation in January 2022 after 18 years of marriage, which had taken the entire industry along with their fans by shock. However, did you know that even before this announcement, there were once rumors of their marital discord? Not only this but actress Shruti Haasan was said to have played a role in the same.

After Amaran, Sivakarthikeyan Is Getting More Budget Than Ajith Kumar? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

After Ayalaan’s failure, Sivakarthikeyan made a solid comeback at the box office. His latest release, Amaran, has emerged as a massive success and is still minting big moolah globally. Yes, the film was expected to earn big, but in reality, it has exceeded all expectations and already crossed the 300 crore mark. The positive impact of such a run is clearly getting reflected in Siva’s upcoming films.

Siva is considered to be in tier 2 among Kollywood actors, but looking at his growth, he’s expected to be in the top league soon. One reason behind it is the increase in his box office pull, not just in India but overseas as well. Another thing is that the makers aren’t hesitating to put big budgets on him, which is rarely seen for actors who aren’t A-listers.

The Bachchan family has been under constant scrutiny with only one speculation – All is not well. However, no one is either confirming or denying the speculations. Amidst all these rumors, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan attended an event last night sans the Bachchan surname as per the eagle-eyed netizens.

However, this is not the entire truth. The actress, whose Instagram account still goes by her surname, has not used the Bachchan surname for quite some time. A few months ago, when she received Siima’s Best Actress Critics Award for Ponniyin Selvan, she accepted it as Aishwarya Rai.

However, the issue significantly rose as her name appeared without Bachchan on the screen during an event last night. Surprisingly, Redditors have been happy looking at the actress’s new transformation, who looks quite changed and refreshing.
