Anil Ravipudi Promises a Film with Nagarjuna

Anil Ravipudi has emerged as a successful director in the Telugu film industry, and to date, he has no flops at the box office, which speaks volumes about his track record. He has worked with senior heroes Venkatesh and Balakrishna and is all set to release a film with Megastar Chiranjeevi for Sankranthi 2026. Anil Ravipudi now promises to make a film with Nagarjuna, another senior hero.

Chiranjeevi, Balakrishna, Venkatesh, and Nagarjuna are the senior stars and four pillars of the previous generation. Now youngsters are leading the industry, though senior stars show their stardom whenever they come up with the right film. Nagarjuna was in good form ten years ago with films like Manam, Oopiri, and Soggade Chinnin Nayana, and led the senior stars, but lost the momentum from then.

He is looking for a major comeback. Recently, he has been taking on character roles, and his role “Kuberaa” was well-received. However, his role in Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s “Coolie” did not live up to expectations and received negative reviews. He is now working on his 100th film, directed by Tamil director Ra Karthik.

Nagarjuna can score a solid hit with Anil Ravipudi

Venkatesh, a senior star hero, has collaborated with Anil Ravipudi on three successful films, F2, F3, and Sankranthiki Vasthunam—significantly contributing to his comeback. Anil Ravipudi also directed Bhagavanth Kesari, starring Balakrishna, which was a box office success and won the National Award.

Now with Chiranjeevi, he is doing Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu. Anil Ravipudi is the most bankable director for senior heroes, and Nagarjuna is the only senior hero with whom he has not made a film.

The director confirms a film with Nagarjuna is 100% happening soon. This collaboration is much-needed for the actor, as Ravipudi can deliver a blockbuster like “Soggade Chinni Nayana” for Sankranthi.

AI Abuse Targets Actresses

In Recent years, a dangerous trend of actresses getting abused by AI-generated fake images has grown into a problematic situation. Despite several actresses, such as Rashmika Mandanna, speaking out, inappropriate and disturbing AI-generated edits continue to circulate online.

Several actresses have recently fallen victim to AI-generated deep fake images and videos, sparking serious concerns about digital safety and privacy. Notable cases include Rashmika Mandanna, Taylor Swift, Scarlett Johansson, and Nora Fatehi.

The misuse of AI is becoming a serious concern for many actresses. This ongoing issue is not only distressing but also misleading, as many people assume these AI images are real. Every day, some actresses’ AI images are trending on the Internet and going viral.

Stronger digital laws and platform accountability are needed before the problem grows even bigger and causes further harm to actresses.

Netflix Adds Kaantha

Kaantha, starring Dulquer Salmaan, Bhagyashree Borse, Rana Daggubati, and Samuthirakani, was released in theaters with high expectations but failed to impress most audiences and critics. Following its disappointing box office performance, Kaantha is now set to arrive on OTT, with Netflix adding the film to its library.

Dulquer and Rana not only acted in the film, but they also produced it, which brought a proper buzz to it. Also, the film received a blockbuster response from Chennai Premieres. With that, everyone expected Kaantha to be another milestone film for Dulquer, like Mahanati, Sita Ramam, and Lucky Baskhar.

But once the regular shows started, the period drama received mixed word of mouth and did not perform well at the box office, ending up as a failure.

Netflix has acquired the all-language streaming rights of Kaantha for a hefty price, and the platform has already added the film to its app’s library, confirming that it will start streaming from Friday, December 12th. Now it’s time to see whether the film can make a strong impact with OTT audiences.

Ustaad Bhagat Singh Release Noise Upsets Charan Fans

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

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.
