Nelson compensated Bloody beggar losses

The Tamil film ‘Bloody Beggar’, produced by Nelson Dilipkumar’s Filament Pictures and directed by debutant Sivabalan Muthukumar, released during the Diwali season alongside ‘Amaran’ starring Sivakarthikeyan and ‘Brother‘ featuring Jayam Ravi.

Unfortunately, despite high expectations, ‘Bloody Beggar’ underperformed at the box office, facing significant losses in Tamil Nadu, particularly in competition with ‘Amaran’, which emerged as the season’s hit.

In a generous move, producer Nelson compensated Tamil Nadu distributors for their losses, recognizing the film’s shortfall in performance. Despite the financial setback in distribution, the film remains profitable overall for Filament Pictures due to its strong pre-release sales and satellite rights.

However, Nelson gained popularity after he compensated distributors for the film’s losses, showing a rare sense of accountability in the industry. This gesture not only rebuilt his reputation but also boosted audience trust, making his next project eagerly anticipated.

Starring Kavin in a unique, comedic role as a beggar caught in a high-stakes situation, ‘Bloody Beggar’ has elements of black comedy and intense drama, exploring themes of desperation and misfortune. The cast includes Redin Kingsly and Akshaya Hariharan, among others, with music by Jen Martin and cinematography by Sujith Sarang.

Robinhood Teaser releasing tomorrow

Tollywood Actor, Nithiin is gearing up with the teaser of his upcoming film, Robinhood. The film directed by Venky Kudumula, who also collaborated with the Actor on his blockbuster Bheeshma, also stars Sree Leela in the female lead role. Robinhood Teaser is releasing tomorrow i.e., 14th November at 4:05 PM on YouTube.

Nithiin, as the title of the film suggests, will be playing the role of a Robinhood. This was also shown in the first look poster of the film which released long ago. There are decent expectations on the film due to the hit combo of Nithiin and Venky Kudumula. The Actor wants to score a hit this time again with this film. He has also gone through a series of flops in the recent years. His Extra ordinary Man which released last year became a big flop and the same with Macherla Niyojakavargam.

Nithiin is hoping to give a big comeback with his other release, Thammudu too. Produced by Dil Raju, this film’s first look has also released. Coming to Robinhood, the release date hasn’t come out from the makers. There is a speculation that the team may consider releasing it this year during the Christmas season but nothing stands confirmed yet. So, let’s wait and see.

Ram Gopal Varma accepts case notice happily

Tollywood Director, Ram Gopal Varma who often ignites big controversies on social media platforms has been under the heat. The Director was recently charged with a notice for allegedly degrading the personality of politician Chandrababu Naidu and his son Lokesh in his directorial, Vyooham. Yesterday, Police have officially handed over the notice and Ram Gopal Varma in his usual style has accpeted them happily with a smile on his face.

This image of him receiving the notice himself with a happy face has gone viral on social media platforms. This could also be Ram Gopal Varma’s style of mocking the notice given by the Police. The Director had actively engaged in online political satires on social media in the last 5 years against Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan. Now that Chandrababu Naidu has become the CM of Andhra Pradesh, the police are after him.

We have to see how RGV tackles this case. He is yet to respond about the incident. Going by the image, he may not back off and would continue his charge of satires against these politicians. So, let’s wait and see.

Suriya faces another embarrassment in Kanguva promotions

Kollywood Actor, Suriya is gearing up for the release of his Kanguva. The film is releasing tomorrow worldwide amid great expectations also projected as a Pan Indian biggie by the makers. Likewise, the team of Kanguva, yesterday, took part in promotional activities in Mumbai where Suriya faced a bitter embarrassment. This is his second one in Kanguva’s promotional actitvies suprisingly. This is now going viral on social media platforms.

Suriya along with the team of Kanguva arrived late to the venue hall where the Q&A promotions were to take place. A media reporter who was present there had vented out his frustration directly at Suriya for arriving late. This came as a shocker to the Actor who replied telling him that they were very busy with the promotional activities everywhere which caused the late arrival. But the reporter wasn’t satisfied with this and still argued with Suriya.

The Actor earlier too was irked by a Kannada Medie reporter who asked him why he had to opt out of a clash with Vettaiyan but decided to clash with Bhairathi Rangal starring Kannada Veteran Actor Shiva Raj Kumar. Suriya gave contrasting answers to this as well then. He was also asked why Kannada films were not getting required screens in Tamil Nadu compared to Tamil films in Karnataka. This too put Suriya in an embarrassment.

Dulquer Salman: The New Favorite for Telugu Film Producers

Dulquer Salman: The New Favorite for Telugu Film Producers

The landscape for Telugu producers working with tier-2 heroes has grown more challenging in recent times. With OTT platforms now becoming selective and less willing to pay high prices, producers can’t depend on guaranteed streaming revenue.

Theatrically, many tier-2 films are struggling to achieve even modest returns. This financial uncertainty is leading to significant losses for producers, and as a result, numerous films are getting shelved despite substantial investments.

In this climate, Dulquer Salmaan stands out as a promising alternative for Telugu producers. His pan-Indian popularity, spanning Telugu, Tamil, and his native Malayalam audiences, gives him a significant edge. This cross-language appeal makes it easier for producers to secure favorable OTT deals, as Dulquer’s movies tend to draw viewers across the country.

A recent example of this phenomenon is his film Lucky Bhaskar. While it may not have performed as expected in the Telugu market, it has achieved impressive worldwide numbers, approaching a 100 crore gross—a milestone that few tier-2 heroes manage to reach. Dulquer’s reach in multiple South Indian languages allows his films to thrive even if one market falls short; the success in other regions often compensates.

For these reasons, Telugu producers are increasingly leaning towards Dulquer, recognizing that his wide-ranging popularity offers more security than relying solely on tier-2 heroes within the Telugu industry. This shift reflects a strategic move towards more stable, pan-regional appeal in an unpredictable market.

Rajinikanth’s Coolie release date locked

Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is swiftly becoming one of the most anticipated films in Indian cinema. Fans are ecstatic about the film, which stars Superstar Rajinikanth and includes Nagarjuna, Aamir Khan, and Upendra.

With such formidable talent, Coolie has the potential to break box office records, potentially even reaching the elusive 1000 crore level. The industry is excited to see if this film would be a watershed moment in South Indian filmmaking.

The team behind Coolie has picked May 1st as the release date to take advantage of the summer break season. The prolonged weekend could increase ticket sales, allowing the film to reach a larger audience over multiple days. However, Coolie will have heavy competition from Hit 3, starring Nani, which is also scheduled for May 1st release.

This head-to-head duel is building up to be one of the year’s most heated box office races. With Coolie carrying massive expectations due to its star-studded cast and scale, many predict it might dominate screens, potentially overshadowing Hit 3.

Still, Nani’s film has a strong fan base, and it will be interesting to see if both films can find success during this high-stakes showdown. The coming months will reveal whether Coolie and Hit 3 can both hold their ground in this fiercely competitive release window.

Release Issues for Kanguva in Nizam

Release Issues for Kanguva in Nizam

Mythri Movie Makers, who recently acquired the Nizam rights for Kanguva, initially promised a record-breaking release with exclusive shows, a highlight at the pre-release event.

However, it now appears that even securing a decent number of screens might be challenging. One reason is the strong performance of Diwali releases that continue to draw audiences, alongside the competition from Matka, which is scheduled to release on the same day.

A more pressing concern, however, seems to stem from disagreements over profit-sharing terms. Sources indicate that Mythri Movies has requested a shift in the percentage terms with exhibitors, which has not been well-received. Asian Cinemas and PVR, some of the key players in the distribution network, are reportedly reluctant to accept Mythri’s proposed terms, resulting in a delay in opening bookings for Kanguva.

The exhibitors’ resistance is significant enough that ongoing discussions are attempting to resolve the issue, although it remains unclear whether an agreement will be reached in time.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first instance where Mythri Movies has encountered distribution challenges in the Nizam region, with similar issues having affected previous releases as well. It remains to be seen whether the parties involved can come to a consensus, allowing for a smooth release of Kanguva in the region.
