War 2 Team Goes Silent Again – Promotions Still Missing

NTR and Hrithik Roshan’s War 2 is one of the most anticipated films of Indian cinema this year. The Telugu fans eagerly await many updates from the film, but the War 2 team goes silent after the teaser, and promotions are still missing for the movie.

War 2 Team Silent after releasing the Teaser

On the occasion of NTR’s birthday, Yash Raj Films released the film’s teaser, and it has been one month since the teaser was released, which received a mixed response, especially for movie production values and CG.

Strangely, there is no attempt from the YRF team to release a song/glimpse or any promotional content till now. Also, the film is releasing alongside Coolie in theaters, so it should be having more publicity.

YRF needs to raise War 2’s buzz to counter Coolie’s Hype

War 2 team goes silent after the teaser, and promotions are still missing for the movie. On the other hand, Rajini-Lokesh’s Coolie carries more buzz for now. The team is continuously releasing some content.

It is also being said that Coolie’s first single will be released this week, whereas there are no updates from NTR and Hrithik Roshan’s War 2 makers after the teaser.

YRF needs to make more noise to dominate Coolie’s buzz and bring back the hype for their film.

Kuberaa Fails In Kerala

Normally, strong, content-driven movies work well in Kerala, irrespective of language. However, Dhanush’s latest film, Kuberaa, directed by Sekhar Kammula, fails to do well in Kerala.

Somehow when any Tamil hero joins with a Telugu director, it is not working in Kerala. Dhanush, for the first time, joined hands with a Telugu director for the movie Sir [Vaathi], which did well in all areas and collected more than 100 Cr gross worldwide.

However, in Kerala, Vaathi/Sir collected just around 1 Cr and emerged as a failure at the box office. Now, the same happened with Sekhar Kammula’s Kuberaa. 

On its 1st weekend, the social drama collected a very huge number of 80 Cr gross worldwide. But in Kerala, the film could gather just around 75 L and did not see any jump on the weekend as well.

Kuberaa fails in Kerala, and at this pace it will close under 1.5 Cr mostly and could close its run with a number less than that.

SC/ST Case Filed on Vijay Deverakonda

A case has been filed against Vijay Deverakonda under the SC/ST Act for his statements about tribal individuals at the Retro event.

On June 17, police filed a case against the actor under the SC/ST Act for remarks made in April, which compared the recent Pahalgam terror attack to tribal disputes from 500 years ago. 

Controversial remarks chase Vijay Deverakonda, as an SC/ST case has been filed against him

“The actor made comments in April. However, based on a complaint, a case under the SC/ST Act was booked against him on 17 June.” The fans, who thought that this issue was over, are shocked as an SC/ST case was filed on Vijay Deverakonda.

Nenavath Ashok Kumar Naik, or Ashok Rathod, filed the complaint as the state president of the Joint Action Committee of Tribal Communities. 

Vijay Deverakonda addressed the Pahalgam terror incident during Suriya’s Retro event.

“The solution to what is happening in Kashmir is also to educate them (terrorists) and ensure they don’t get brainwashed. What will they achieve? Kashmir belongs to India, and Kashmiris are ours. India doesn’t even need to attack Pakistan because Pakistanis themselves are fed up with their government and will attack them if this continues. 

Asalu 500 years back tribals kokkutunnatu, veelu buddi lekunda, minimum common sense lekunda chese panulu.” (They behave like tribals did 500 years ago, fighting without common sense).

Following criticism on social media, the actor expressed remorse and emphasized his respect for all communities, especially the Scheduled Tribes.

Mamitha was recently asked about Vijay’s future retirement at the Kerala Carnival in Ireland, and she said, “One day, when we were shooting together, I casually asked him whether Jana Nayagan is truly his last movie. Vijay Sir candidly responded that it will depend on how the elections go. He said, We’ll see what happens.”

The actress also said at the event, “In the last days of shooting, I got very emotional along with everyone else, and on the final day, he got emotional too.”

The Election Results will decide whether Jana Nayagan will be the last film of Vijay or not

So, the political outcome to decide Vijay’s Cinema’s future, according to Mamitha Baiju’s words, and the fans happily share her video on social media.

Kuberaa Sets Fire at Box Office – 1st Weekend in Detail

Sekhar Kammula’s Kuberaa had a terrific 1st weekend at the box office. The trade is awed by it as Kuberaa sets the box office on fire.

In all three days of opening weekend, the film has collected a double-digit gross in Telugu States, which is a sensational feat.

Kuberaa Superb Performance at the USA Box Office

In the USA alone the weekend collection is around 1.6M, and overseas gross exceeds 2.5M. The movie does good numbers in Karnataka as well.

As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned, the film had a decent week and Sunday is the best day for the film, which is a positive sign.

Sekhar Kammula’s Kuberaa sets the box office on fire, but Kerala’s numbers are disappointing, and the Hindi version also did not add any collections.

Overall, the film had a superb 1st weekend in theaters with around 80 Cr gross collection worldwide.

The Telugu version recovered 2/3 of theatrical rights, whereas in Tamil Nadu the film recovered only 40% for the weekend.

So to achieve breakeven, a strong weekday hold is needed in Tamil Nadu for the film, while in Telugu territories a decent hold will be good.

Ajith’s Next Confirmed as Mega-Budget Film – Not Backed by Mythri Movies

Ajith’s Good Bad Ugly is the Tamil debut of Telugu production house Mythri Movie Makers. Reportedly, Mythri was also bankrolling the star’s next. But the latest reports suggest that Mythri Movies is not backing Ajith’s next mega-budget film.

GBU is a box office success, and it is also the biggest career grosser for Ajith. So, everyone expected that the same combination would be repeated for Ak’s next film. But the Mankatha actor will work with Adhik, but not under Mythri Movies.

The movie’s production is said to be handled by Vels Production, and it will be made on a budget of 300 crore. The remuneration of Ajith Kumar will be more than half of the budget.

So, it is confirmed that Mythri Movies is not backing Ajith’s next mega-budget film, and it will go on floors this year in October, targeting a summer 2026 release.

Telugu Box Office Outlook Weak for Jana Nayakudu

Telugu Box Office Outlook Weak for Jana Nayakudu

Thalapathy Vijay has created a promising market in Telugu, and his films have consistently done well in recent years. But his last film, Jana Nayakudu prospects at the Telugu Box Office are looking weak.

The main reason for the low hype for Jana Nayagan in Telugu is that the film is a remake of Bhagavanth Kesari. Naturally, an audience will not be interested in watching the Telugu remake of a Tamil-dubbed film.

The team and the close circles say that the film is not a complete remake, and they have just taken the basic plot and a few scenes. But, still, Telugu audiences might not get excited for this film due to the remake factor.

Also, director H. Vinoth does not have any brand in Telugu audiences. The promotional content of the film, including today’s glimpse, did not work with Telugu audiences, and the film is releasing for Sannkranthi.

For Sankranthi, Chiranjeevi, Raviteja Film, and Sharwanand have lined up films, and there might be one more biggie ready to join the list. So, it will be tough for Thalapathy Vijay’s film to compete with them.

That is why Vijay’s Jana Nayakudu’s prospects at the Telugu box office are looking weak. So, the team needs to put in massive efforts to create the required buzz in Telugu.

Everyone knows that Jana Nayagan is the last film of Vijay, and this sentiment factor will work only in Tamil and not in Telugu.
