0

Bigg Boss 9 Telugu enters its 14th week with seven housemates. Normally, the Bigg Boss season runs for 15 weeks, and five housemates enter the 15th and final week, with voting beginning that week. 

However, for the 9th season, Bigg Boss is said to be following a new strategy, as the finale voting has begun in the 14th week itself, starting tonight. All seven housemates are now in the voting race, and this process will continue until 20th December. This weekend, the housemate who receives the fewest votes in the final voting will be eliminated.

This year, six housemates are expected to participate, unlike the usual format, which features only five contestants in the finale week. One contestant will be eliminated mid-week based on viewer votes, and the grand finale on December 21st will feature the remaining five finalists

Ustaad Bhagat Singh Release Noise Upsets Charan Fans

0

Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar’s Ustaad Bhagat Singh did not announce the release date yet, and as promised, the makers started the promotions, announcing the first single promo release on 9th December. However, the indirect hints about Ustaad’s release date in March, the same season in which Peddi is also arriving, are hurting Charan fans.

Both Ram Charan’s Peddi and Nani’s The Paradise were initially announced for release at the end of March, a prime period for films due to the combination of summer and festival holidays. However, due to delays in the shoot, The Paradise is reportedly postponed, and the makers will announce the new release date soon.

Ustaad Bhagat Singh to potentially take Peddi’s release date?

Recently, there has been some buzz that Peddi might also get postponed from the said date. The movie has to complete the entire shoot by December according to the initial plan, but it will surely extend until January now.

So, a new buzz started in the industry circles that Ustaad will take Peddi’s release date if it gets postponed. A section of the industry or media has already started the news that Peddi Postponement is 100% confirmed, and Ustaad Bhagat Singh is scheduled for the same date.

Now, this buzz is hurting the Ram Charan fans, as they are sure of a big comeback by their favorite hero with Peddi, and they do not want the film to be postponed from a blockbuster date like March.

Akhanda 2 Release Options: Detailed Analysis of the Best Dates

0

There has been a lot of discussion about the new release date of Akhanda 2, which was supposed to be released on December 5, but was postponed at the last minute. Right now, there are many rumors and news coming out regarding the new date. Track Tollywood has done an analysis of Akhanda 2 Release options.

Akhanda 2 Release Options Analysis

25th December:

If the film releases on 25th December with 24th-night premieres, the film will benefit from the holiday release with a 4-day long weekend plus premieres. So it will definitely have a big opening weekend. And since 1st January falls in the second week, it becomes a big advantage, the second weekend will also deliver strong numbers.

However, after the second weekend, the movie may have almost completed its box-office run due to the pre-festival effect. Sankranthi is lined up with multiple releases, and another concern is whether the movie can maintain the same release momentum, as there is still more than a 2-week gap. The team will need to come out again for promotions.

12th December:

If it’s 12th December, with 11th-night premieres, there is no need to release much promotional content; a press meet is more than enough to carry the release momentum. But there are no holidays on the first weekend and the second weekend. The one big advantage is that the movie will have a consistent run until the 4th weekend, and both the 3rd and 4th weekends will benefit from holidays, which is a major plus.

As the business involves a huge amount, buyers always want to recover their investment as quickly as possible. So any delay in the release directly affects them. In this scenario, 12th December is the better option.

19th December:

If it’s a 19th December release, the movie will have a good advantage with holidays at the beginning of its second week and the beginning of its third week. Also, other releases will get some relief, as multiple films have already been announced for 12th December and 25th December. Finding a better date at this stage can be tough for them.

Akhanda 2 Release Update: This Date Likely to Be Finalised

0

Today, the Akhanda 2 Team discussed with distributors regarding the new release date, and the discussion happened between two dates: 12th December and 25th December. The majority of the people are said to have agreed on 25th December, according to sources.

Many distributors suggested releasing the film on 25th December with premieres on the 24th night across all areas. As Christmas falls on a Thursday, and it is a public holiday, the 4-day long weekend with Wednesday premieres will add huge numbers for the film. 

At the same time, in the 2nd week, 1st January will come across as another advantage. If the film releases on 25th December, then the makers can also get some time to clear all the financial hurdles and release the film without any issues next time.

12th and 25th December: Two Release Dates Under Consideration for Akhanda 2

But the only concern for the Akhanda 2 team is the momentum. Because of the postponement, now the film has been doing rounds in the minds of audiences and is carrying some momentum.

So, if it releases on 12th December, then it will carry the hype, and if it arrives on 25th December, there is more than 2 weeks’ gap from now, which raises some concerns about it carrying the same momentum. Even the fans demand a 12th December release date due to this concern only.

But, there are high chances for the film to be released on 25th December. If the team is able to resolve all issues by tomorrow, then the 12th December release is possible for sure.

Aamir Khan Shocks Everyone with His Update on Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Film

0

During the Coolie promotions, Aamir Khan officially announced that he is doing a film with Lokesh Kanagaraj, and it’s a superhero subject. However, after the film’s result, it looked like the film was called off. But Aamir recently shocked everyone as he said that his film with Lokesh Kanagaraj is very much on.

For a few days, a strong set of reports came that Director Lokesh and his team were working on the same superhero subject for Allu Arjun under Mythri Productions, which directly meant a film with Aamir Khan was dropped.

But now, Aamir officially says that his film with Lokesh Kanagaraj is not shelved. “Lokesh and I were supposed to meet last month in Mumbai, and the narration is going on, so yes, the project is very much in progress. I intend to give one film a year, and I am trying my best. We spoke last month, and he said he’ll be coming to Bombay soon. Once he is here, we’ll go through the narration. As of now, it’s definitely happening,” he said.

After Coolie’s release, there has been a big confusion about Lokesh’s next directorial and which film he will do first, with continuous news of several combinations. It needs to be seen who will be the final one to do a film with the director.

Will Krithi Shetty’s Luck Change?

0

Krithi Shetty debuted with a blockbuster Uppena in Telugu, and with such a huge success, she received a lot of projects continuously in Telugu but faced back-to-back failures, which halted her offers in the Telugu film industry as the days went by.

But the actress received good offers from Tamil Cinema, and now she awaits the release of Jayam Ravi’s Genie, Pradeep Ranganathan’s LIK, Karthi’s Vaa Vaathiyaar (Annagaru Vostaru). All three films have completed shooting a long time back, but due to financial hurdles they have not seen the release.

Krithi Shetty needs all her upcoming releases to score well to get back on the success track and to get more exciting projects in her career. Karthi’s film is scheduled for release on 12th December, and the trailer is also out.

Pradeep Rangathan’s LIK is announced for 18th December. Both movies still have financial hurdles that need to be cleared, and they will be able to be released in theaters only if they do so. 

Let’s just hope that all three films of the Uppena actress will arrive in theaters, crossing all the issues on time, and give her a grand comeback.

Dhanush is not only a Tamil Hero but he has also worked in Telugu, Hindi and English films as well. He acted in an intense love drama, Tere Ishk Mein, alongside Kriti Sanon, which received a positive response from audiences. Dhanush hits his career best figures at the box office as the film joins the 100 Cr net club in India.

Continuing its long run in the theaters, Tere Ishk Mein is hitting ₹100 crore net in India today, and becomes Dhanush’s career best film as it is the first-ever 100 crore net film in the country. 

Despite the Dhurandhar storm, the film performed well in its second weekend, much to the happiness of the theater owners.

Previously, the Kuberaa actor did Raanjhanaa with Anand L. Rai, released in 2013, and became a superhit. Another film, Atrangi Re, was directly released on OTT in 2021.

Bigg Boss 9 Telugu Voting Results Week 13

0

With Bigg Boss 9 Telugu nearing its climax, the viewers are excited about the voting results. The 13th week polls suggest that Tanuja is in the number one place, while Pavan No 2 place, Bharani No 3 place, Suman at the number 4 place, Sanjana at the number 5 and Rithu is in the number 6 place. 

It has already been revealed that because of getting the least number of votes, Rithu has been eliminated, and the other contestant, Sanjana, who was also in the danger zone, got safe because it was a single elimination episode this week.

Looking at the Bigg Boss 9 Telugu 13th week’s Voting polls trend, Sanjana and Suman will be in the danger zone for next week. They should not be nominated to enter the final week, as the vote turnaround is not possible in these final days.

Rithu’s elimination will practically help Demon Pavan to improve his position, as her votes will now directly get transferred to him, because of their close bond and good friendship in the house.

With Kalyan winning the ticket to the finale task, he will not be in the nominations next week, and it will be interesting to see who will arrive in the nominations in the last week.

Akhanda 2 Release Stuck: Waiting for One Big Assurance

0

EROS is one of the main reasons for the Akhanda 2 movie’s postponement, as it was fed up with the film’s production house, 14 Reels Plus’s false promises on a continuous basis regarding the pending payment. The film’s release is still doubtful because of this issue.

The company approached the court for a principal amount of 28 Cr, and they demanded that the amount should be paid with 14% interest, taking the total to over 50 Cr.

Since the production house cannot immediately pay the amount, they are attempting an out-of-court resolution. However, the issue remains unresolved, with discussions ongoing. EROS reportedly demands that the Akhanda 2 production house pay half the outstanding amount immediately, along with a prominent person’s guarantee to withdraw from the case. The parties are still in negotiations.

Akhanda 2 Release: Big Task Ahead For 14 Reels Plus

14 Reels Plus needs to be prepared with half the amount. Even if they get half the amount, there’s uncertainty about securing the remaining amount, as these are substantial sums in the crore range. Balakrishna and Boyapati Srinu have reportedly already sacrificed some of their outstanding remuneration.

Hopefully, 14 Reels Plus will resolve all issues by tomorrow and announce a new release date.
