130 Days for the Magnum Opus

Vetrimaaran has requested a total of 130 days from Suriya to complete this ambitious film. To balance his other commitments, Suriya has agreed to a 10-day call sheet every month. This arrangement allows the actor to juggle multiple projects while giving Vaadivaasal the dedicated time it deserves.

When Will Shooting Begin?

Principal photography will officially commence once Suriya wraps up his current project, Arasan. Given the scale of this magnum opus, filming is expected to take at least 1½ years to complete.

The SuriyaVetrimaaran combination has been one of the most anticipated collaborations in Tamil cinema, and fans can finally look forward to seeing it materialize.

0

The biggest update for Allu Arjun fans is finally here. To mark the Icon Star’s birthday on April 8, 2026, the makers of his next massive project, AA22xA6, will reveal the official title and a special first glimpse of the film.

Why the Teaser Matters

Directed by blockbuster filmmaker Atlee and produced by Sun Pictures, AA22 is being made on a record-breaking budget. The film targets not just Indian audiences but international markets as well, with releases planned in several Indian and foreign languages.

The glimpse is expected to showcase the high-end VFX and Hollywood-level production standards that set this project apart.

Pre-Release Business Strategy

The producers have a strategic plan in place. They want to “explore the world” of the movie through this teaser before locking any distribution deals. The goal is to let audiences witness the scale of AA22 before the massive pre-release business kicks off.

This approach mirrors what Atlee did with his previous films like Jawan, where the glimpse created massive buzz before theatrical deals were finalized.

Trailer Critical for Pre-Release Hype

Star-Studded Cast

Besides Yash, the film features an impressive ensemble including Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Rukmini Vasanth, Tara Sutaria, and Huma Qureshi in prominent roles.

Production Details

Toxic is written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas, with Mohandas also directing the project. The film was reportedly shot simultaneously in Kannada and English. Dubbed versions are planned in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and several other languages.

Toxic vs Dhurandhar 2 USA Advance Bookings: Ranveer Leads Yash by 10x

0

The mega box office clash between Yash’s Toxic and Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 is the talk of the town. While everyone expected a tight competition, the initial advance bookings in the USA show a different story. As of now, Dhurandhar 2 is dominating the race.

USA Advance Booking Numbers

Advance bookings for the premiere shows opened two days ago. The gap between the two films is shocking.

FilmAdvance CollectionTickets Sold
Dhurandhar 2$65K+3,750+
Toxic$6K~300

Dhurandhar 2 is leading 10 times bigger than Toxic in the USA market.

What Toxic Needs to Compete

Toxic is currently lacking the necessary buzz to compete with a massive sequel like Dhurandhar 2. A blasting trailer is now a must to bring the audience back.

Yash needs to increase the buzz for Toxic and raise its stakes in this box office clash. Without strong promotional material, closing this 10x gap will be a steep climb.

Peddi’s Rai Rai Raa Raa: Ram Charan’s Chartbuster Has One Flaw

0

The second single from Ram Charan’s upcoming film Peddi, titled Rai Rai Raa Raa, dropped yesterday and is already dominating charts. The song is performing exceptionally well across Telugu, Hindi, and Tamil markets.

Buchi Babu’s Musical Streak Continues

Director Buchi Babu Sana has once again proved his strong taste in music. After the massive success of the Uppena album, Peddi is shaping up to be another chartbuster. Both released songs — Chikiri Chikiri and Rai Rai Raa Raa — have received unanimous positive response from audiences.

Ram Charan’s performance in both songs has been spectacular. Fans are praising his dance moves, grace, and signature swag. Meanwhile, AR Rahman is making a strong comeback in Telugu cinema with this energetic and catchy album.

The Only Complaint About Rai Rai Raa Raa

While the song is a massive hit, some listeners have raised one small concern about the Telugu version. Since AR Rahman himself provided the vocals for the Telugu track, a section of the audience feels a native Telugu singer might have delivered better lyrical clarity. The feedback centers on a few portions where the words are slightly difficult to understand.

Despite this minor issue, the energy and vibe of Rai Rai Raa Raa have made it a viral sensation on social media. Peddi’s second single is undeniably a winner.
