Vishwak Sen’s Promise: Will He Deliver?

0

Vishwak Sen has seen continuous failures in recent times. The films like Gangs of Godavari, Mechanic Rocky, and recent Laila failed to impress the audiences. Laila faced severe backlash from audiences and reviewers. Now, Vishwak Sen makes a promise about his upcoming movies.

The young and energetic actor lost his respect in audiences because he delivered a vulgar film with Laila. Vishwak seems to have realised his mistake and pens a letter in response. “I promise that whether my films cater to class or mass audiences, they will never cross the line into vulgarity,” he wrote.

He further stated that he would personally ensure every scene in his future films maintains a certain standard. “Since the beginning of my career, I have chosen stories that resonate with me, and I will continue to do so. However, from now on, it won’t just be about making good films—every single scene of mine will matter,” said the actor.

Vishwak Sen makes a promise about his upcoming movies but needs to see whether he will stand on his promise by delivering good projects from now on. One good thing is he is having a promising lineup in the coming days. His next film is with Jathi Ratnalu director Anudeep, and Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi sequel is also in works.

Allu Arjun keeps Trivikram waiting

0

Tollywood Actor Allu Arjun and Director Trivikram joined hands for a film in 2023 which was also announced officially. It was also planned to start the shoot after the completion of Pushpa 2. However, the delay in the shoot of Pushpa 2 caused a slight pause for the project to take off. Recently, there has been speculation of the Actor collaborating with Atlee for a film. All these ensure Trivikram waits for some more days.

It is learned that the film has been planned as a high-budget spectacle and also needs time for pre-production work. This is now being perceived as the reason for Allu Arjun causing delay. His mind is also said to have changed after Bollywood Blockbuster, Jawan’s release. He is now considering Atlee to direct him as he is a mass and commercial director who also enjoys huge craze in Tamil.

With Jawan, Atlee has also been registered as a Pan India Director. So, Allu Arjun must be thinking of increasing his Pan India image which has already skyrocketed with his Pushpa 2 recently. He might take up the film with Trivikram only after this since he is a lesser-known Director than Atlee, sticking only to regional films till now.

Allu Arjun had actually given his go-ahead to Atlee by putting Trivikram’s film on hold after the Pushpa series. This project was also tentatively titled, AAA and a few pre-production works had also been done before the project was shelved due to various reasons. Atlee then moved to Salman Khan for a film, but this one was also shelved unfortunately due to budget constraints.

Change in equations after Pushpa 2:

On the other hand, Allu Arjun emerged as a huge star after his Pushpa 2 recently. Producers are now ready to pour in huge budget and are also ready to offer record remuneration which would let Allu Arjun take up his film with Atlee again. As per this, plans are also on to put Trivikram’s film on hold. Allu Arjun may say that he can do films parallelly but his focus will be on Atlee’s directorial and will concentrate on Trivikram’s film later.

Allu Arjun and Atlee’s film will definitely be the biggest combination having a huge potential to work big in all languages. An official announcement regarding the film is also expected to come very soon.

Nani – Cibi Chakravarthy – Siva Karthikeyan

0

Director Cibi Chakravarthy made a sensational debut with ‘Don’, starring Sivakarthikeyan. The film emerged as the actor’s highest-grossing project at the time, solidifying his position in the industry and establishing Cibi as a promising filmmaker.

Nani – Sujeeth Colloboration

Following the success of ‘Don’, Cibi engaged in discussions with Nani for a new project. While Nani was impressed with the script and many discussions happened to take the film on sets. But the prior commitments.. particularly a film with Sujeeth..delayed their collaboration.

As a result, Cibi turned to Sivakarthikeyan again, and a film was officially announced. However, Sivakarthikeyan’s schedule underwent a sudden change when ‘Parashakthi’, initially planned for Suriya, landed in his hands. He prioritised this project, along with completing ‘Madarasi’ with AR Murugadoss, putting Cibi’s film on hold.

With his plans repeatedly delayed, Cibi found himself waiting once more. But now, things seem to be aligning in his favor. Nani, wrapping up ‘Hit 3’, faced delays with his upcoming projects, including Srikanth Odela’s ‘Paradise’ due to extensive pre production works and Sujeeth’s film, which is on hold due to ‘OG’. This allowed Nani to reconsider Cibi’s film, which is reportedly ready to begin production soon.

Nani’s Next With Cibi Chakravarthy

If all goes as planned, an official announcement could come on Nani’s birthday, February 24. Following this, Cibi is expected to reunite with Sivakarthikeyan, marking a busy period ahead for the director after three years of waiting. At this moment, Nani’s next film after HIT 3 will be with Cibi Chakravarthy immediately.

Sankranthiki Vasthunam TV Premier and OTT premier Date and Details

0

Sankranthiki Vasthunam, which premiered at the 2025 Sankranti festival, has become one of the highest-grossing Telugu films, earning over ₹150 crore share worldwide. Even weeks after its release the film continues to enchant audiences with excellent occupancy, especially on weekends.

Unlike many recent films that arrive on OTT within four weeks of release, Sankranthiki Vasthunam is taking a different approach by extending its theatrical run for eight weeks. This strategy has significantly contributed to the film’s sustained performance in cinemas, benefiting both the producers and theater owners.

Sankranthiki Vasthunam OTT

Before its release, Zee Group acquired the film’s digital and satellite rights in a lucrative deal. With the satellite market witnessing a decline due to early OTT premieres, Zee is experimenting with a new strategy. Instead of following the standard pattern of releasing on OTT within a month and premiering on television after a few months, they are reversing the process.

Sankranthiki Vasthunam will first have its television premiere on March 9, followed by its OTT release the next day. If this experiment proves successful, it could lead to a shift in the industry, influencing other networks like Sun Group and ETV to adopt similar strategies. Given the current challenges in securing satellite partners, even for major pan-India films, this approach might help revive the television market while ensuring better visibility and revenue for filmmakers.

Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaaj was released in theaters worldwide for this Sankranthi, and even though the film emerged as a success, for the content and reviews it had received, the movie has definitely underperformed at the box office. The film’s OTT release has garnered a significant amount of interest among audiences, and the good news is Daaku Maharaaj will be available for streaming on OTT from tonight.

The main reason for Daaku’s underperformance at the theaters is the phenomenal success of Sankranthiki Vasthunam. With the help of the family genre, Venkatesh and Ravipudi’s film dominated every other release during this Sankranthi. 

Netizens go crazy about Daaku Maharaaj

However, recently Daaku Maharaaj’s clips spread so well on the internet. After watching a few scenes of the film, many felt it has the best technical quality for a Balakrishna movie in recent times. As said above, the viewers are eagerly awaiting the movie to stream on OTT.

If the makers opted for another solo release date, the film could have been the 1st 100 Cr film for Balakrishna. The film was also released in Tamil and Hindi theatrically after a few days of the Telugu version’s release, but they did not work there, as the team did not put in any efforts to promote the film. Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaaj will be available for streaming on OTT from tonight.

Daaku Maharaaj on Netflix: Huge Anticipation from the viewers

Normally, most of the Telugu films will stream on OTT within a 4 week theatrical window. So, the audiences expected that Daaku will stream from February 2nd week but the digital giant, Netflix, did not stream the movie at the expected time.

Finally, it is streaming from tonight on Netflix in all languages Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi. Daaku is expected to get a massive response on OTT.

HIT 3 Teaser: The Crucial Factor

0

HIT 3 is the upcoming film of Nani, directed by Sailesh Kolanu. Even though it is a franchise film, the movie is not carrying that huge buzz as of now. The film’s promotional content has been very limited up to now and HIT 3’s teaser will be a crucial factor in generating the required hype.

HIT 3: Missing the Hype of a Franchise Film

The reason for the third part of HIT not getting much hype is that the first two parts of the HIT series delivered the success for the budgets and business. However, they did not reach a wide range of audiences, and the director, Sailesh Kolanu, delivered a big disaster with Saindhav after HIT 2. 

So even though it is a franchise film, currently, it is in a situation that promotional content needs to work big to provide the hype. As of now, the only exciting factor for the film is Nani playing the lead role and the upcoming promotional content should also add to that to bring a big level of audiences to the theaters.

The Promotional Content should work massively for HIT 3

Till now, a few posters of the film have been released, which did not set the bar high. Now the teaser will play a very crucial role in creating the buzz on the film. The teaser is arriving on 24th February for Nani’s birthday. HIT 3’s teaser will be a crucial factor in generating the required hype. If the teaser works big, then Nani’s stardom can pull a bigger section of audiences, and he can also take the HIT franchise to a new level.

Can Vishwak’s Reference and Adivi Sesh’s Cameo provide the craze for HIT 3?

There are also reports of HIT-3 having the cameos of Adivi Sesh along with the reference shots of Vishwak Sen. The film has been announced for a 1st May release in theaters. KGF fame Srinidhi Shetty is the lead actress in this film, while Mickey J Meyer composes the music.This action thriller is produced by Nani’s own production house, Wall Poster Cinema, and Unanimous Productions.

0

Puri Jagannath was considered one of the top directors of Tollywood. Over the years, his graph went down with a series of failures. However, he is still liked by a section of audiences, and they want to see him deliver a massive hit at the box office. There is interesting and exciting news for Puri’s fans, as it is being said that the Golimaar sequel is in the works. Golimaar is one of Puri Jagannath and Gopichand’s best films.

Puri Jagannath: A Massive Comeback is needed

As said above, Puri faced consecutive failures once, but he made a comeback with Ismart Shankar, starring Ram Pothineni. However, he faced big disasters in the form of Liger and Double Ismart. Also, for the success of Ismart Shankar, Ram’s energy/dances and Manisharma’s music were credited more than Puri Jagan’s story and dialogues.

The last good film from Puri Jagannath is Temper, but the story was written by Vakkantham Vamsi. Puri’s last film where audiences felt it had his trademark story, screenplay, dialogues, and direction is Businessman. After Businessman, the director continuously struggled to find a good story.

Gopichand: A Decade went without a Hit

On the other hand, Hero Gopichand is also in the same phase with continuous failure. The last proper success he saw was Loukyam, which was released in 2014, which means more than 10 years have passed.

Both Puri and Gopichand need a big success to make a comeback. The inside reports suggest that they are collaborating on a project. It is also an exciting one because it will be made as Golimaar-2.

Golimaar-2: Blockbuster Potential

Golimaar is one of Puri Jagannath and Gopichand’s best films, and audiences loved each and every scene of the film. Now, it’s being reported that the Golimaar sequel is in the works. The recent form of the hero and director will not impact the craze of this film, as the sequel factor will work massively for it.

Puri is said to have been working on the script for this film, and if everything goes well and if a proper script comes out, the project will go on sets soon. Certainly, Golimaar-2 will be an exciting and big project.
