Bigg Boss Telugu 8 announcement, however, has not been received well by Nagarjuna fans. The senior actor had earlier promised that his next film would be released on 2025 Sankranti. So far, nothing has been confirmed. At the moment, he is doing Kubera under Sekhar Kammula’s direction but it’s not a solo film and Dhanush will play the title role. The film will be released this year-end or 2025 early summer.

No details about Nagarjuna’s next have been announced yet. This Bigg Boss update has hurt his fans as other senior stars are doing interesting projects whereas Nagarjuna is lagging behind.

0

Indian 2 starring Kamal Haasan released recently amidst big hype. But the film ended up disaster on the opening day itself. The film received a negative talk and didn’t recover after the opening day. The team and makers hoped that the film would perform extraordinarily but it didn’t meet the expectations properly. Now, with no choice left, Indian 2 is preparing itself for an early OTT streaming.

Indian 2 digital rights were bought by leading OTT Giant, Netflix for a record price ever in Kollywood. The film was agreed to arrive after 6 – 8 weeks of its release on the OTT. But with the film getting failed at the box office, the OTT release will be a bit earlier than the fixed schedule. Now, according to the buzz, Indian 2 may stream from August 2nd week. The makers are hoping to have a better response from the audience atleast from the OTT release.

Indian 3’s fate now hangs in balance as the film needs to have a big hype before the release. But with Indian 2’s disastrous result, no one knows what would happen with Indian 3’s filming and release plan. Shankar said that Indian 3 would be releasing six months after Indian 2’s release. But he will move on to Game Changer starring Ram Charan first to have a relief and then concentrate on Indian 3.

Kalki 2898 AD Hindi: Buy One Get One

0

Kalki 2898 AD has done tremendous business in domestic as well as overseas markets bringing in great joy to Aswini Dutt and co. Very rarely have we seen a movie doing good numbers and showcasing solid occupancies in its 4th week. The film has marked the second consecutive hit for Prabhas after Salaar.

And now, to attract the audience into its 5th week, a new offer has been introduced where cinemagoers will get one plus one tickets. This is quite normal in Hindi to get good numbers in the long run. All blockbuster films introduce this offer in 5th week. In fact, some films do so in their 1st and 2nd week too.

The decision to offer this for Kalki 2898 AD Hindi is to attract a bigger audience for next weekend. The film is still doing very good numbers in all languages. Our South industry also should adopt this trend as it has traditionally shown great results in Hindi. In Hindi, Kalki is the 2nd biggest grosser from Tollywood after Baahubali 2. The Hindi version numbers itself have inched close to 400 Cr gross worldwide.

The Goat Life also titled as Aadu Jeevitham was a Malayalam film which released this year. The film was based on a real life incident starring Prithviraj Sukumaran in the lead role. The film became a big blockbuster grossing nearly 150 crores worldwide. The film deals with hardships the Actor faces in Saudi Arabia where he is forced to work as a goat herd. Now many such cases have come up which reflect The Goat Life‘s real life resemblance.

Recently, a Telugu Person was stuck in Saudi Arabia. He made a video explaining his hardships and appealed the AP government to bring him back to his home. Another person too surfaced by recording a video in the same manner. Nara Lokesh, son of AP Chief Minister, Chandrababu Naidu and currently serving as a minister in AP responded to these videos. He assured them of all help and ensured they reach their home very soon.

These videos explain how people are exploited in the name of jobs in such countries. Governments must notice and take action against those who are responsible for these incidents. Let’s hope that these people return to our country soon and their home afterwards as well.

He went on to say that it is Chiranjeevi who is trying hard to save the inseaparable bond of Konidela-Allu families. Without revealing any new info, he stated that these families will get closer very soon. Allu Arjun will be next seen in Sukumar’s Pushpa: The Rule.

Indian 2: A Wasted Opportunity For Shankar & Kamal Hassan!

0

Titled Bharateeyudu-2 in Telugu, Indian-2 (2024) is a vigilant thriller film directed by Shankar Shanmugham. A sequel to Indian (1996), it features Kamal Hassan reprising his role as ‘Senapathy’. Released on July 12th of this year, the film was a colossal failure, to say the least.

But what’s noteworthy is that the first installment, Indian (1996), in its Tamil version, is still trending in the Netlfix Top-10 despite many new releases. Considering this, experts believe that the sequel, Indian-2, has the potential to score big figures if delivered right.

However, Shankar has completely failed to impress audiences with the second installment. This can be touted as a classic example of a filmmaker wasting a huge opportunity. It must be seen how Indian-3 will fare at the ticket window.

0

Tamil Actor, Radha Ravi is a renowned Actor and also the brother of Actress Radhika. He now made shocking allegations on Telugu Producer, Ashwini Dutt. The Actor said that he was removed from a film after knowing his caste details by Ashwini Dutt. This has shocked everyone.

Radha Ravi said that Ashwini Dutt had enquired about his caste once and then took back the cash given to him for a film. He said that he was booked to do few films under Vyjayanthi Films but was removed from those films. Ashwini Dutt has not responded to the issue but it seems very distasteful. Ashwini Dutt is known to be very familiar with Chandrababu Naidu and his party, TDP as well. He even became politically active recently by making sharp comments against Jagan Mohan Reddy and his party. Currently, the producer is enjoying his success with Kalki 2898 AD which became a stunning blockbuster.

Kalki 2898 AD has managed to gross nearly 1000 crores becoming a sensational hit for Prabhas. The film is also his solo highest grosser after Salaar apart from the Baahubali series. Prabhas will also be the only hero after Shah Rukh Khan to be a part of two or more 1000 crore grossers in the country.

Tamil Actor, Bobby Simha played a pivotal role in recently released Indian 2. He acted as the son of Nedumudi Venu who was a key actor in Indian. He, in a recent interview slammed critics who gave low reviews for Indian 2. Bobby Simha also said that they were just fools. This has shocked everyone now.

Interviewer asked Bobby Simha about the reception of Indian 2 to which the Actor reacted in the above way. This didn’t go well with some audiences and netizens. They say that Indian 2 has already become a big disaster but Bobby Simha still feels that there was nothing wrong about Indian 2. They also feel that the Actor must understand the reality and not criticize others for the result.

On the other hand, Indian 2 is staring towards a big disastrous result. The film is heading nowhere and will end up as a nightmare for all the parties involved. There is a continuation part, Indian 3 in the line up. No one knows what Shankar and team would do about that. Shankar also has Game Changer in the line up. The film has also completed its shoot and is ready for release. We have to see which film comes first and gives a relief for Shankar.

Ravi Teja’s Threat to Ram

0

With Pushpa 2 getting postponed form 15th August there have been several last-minute shuffles with many small and medium-budget films trying to go for the coveted Independence Day weekend. Amongst these films, Double Ismart is the most prominent and crucial for Ram and Puri Jagannadh. Everyone believed that Double Ismart will have a great opening as there are no major movies in sight.

Other films releasing at the same time are Vikram’s Thangalaan directed by P.A. Ranjith, Narne Nithin’s Aay, and Nivetha Thomas’s 35 movie. All these films have pretty low buzz and will definitely not impact Double Ismart in any manner.

But now, things are changing and Ram and Puri Jagannadh might face some stiff competition. Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja and Harish Shankar’s Mr Bachchan is planned to be released on 14th August. This will be a massive competition for Puri and Ram as Harish Shankar and Ravi Teja combo is one has a good brand value and Mr Bachchan is also an action entertainer.
