No more Game Changer burden for Ram Charan

0

Today marks the final day of the shoot for Ram Charan‘s portions in Game Changer. The film is directed by Maverick Director, Shankar who is also making his debut in Telugu after years. This film being a regular commercial flick took so much of time than expected for the shoot itself surprisingly. From today, there will finally be no more Game Changer burden for Ram Charan. He will also concentrate on his future films.

Ram Charan after the phenomenal success of RRR which released in 2022 promised to release a film every year. He joined hands with Shankar for Game Changer in 2021 itself and everyone felt the film would release in a year. But it took longer time than expected as Shankar had one more film to work on i.e., Indian 2. The first schedule of Game Changer started in September 2021 and it took almost three years for the film to finish mostly.

There is a 10 day shoot left which will be shot on important cast of the film. Game Changer’s post production will start after this. Ram Charan on the other hand will work completely on Buchi Babu’s film which was already launched this year.

Kalki 2898 AD is all set to become the all time top 4 south Indian grosser at the box office. The film has already broken many records for the lead actor Prabhas. The film is running strong even after a week after its release and advance bookings for today look good as well. This weekend is expected to add more numbers for the film at the box office.

Kalki 2898 AD is also joining the 700 crore mark gross worldwide today. This makes the film the fourth highest grosser in South Indian market. The film stands only next to Baahubali 2, RRR and KGF Chapter 2. Kalki 2898 AD has to settled down with this position as it looks very difficult to breach the records of KGF Chapter 2 and RRR.

The film is also racing towards the coveted 1000 crore gross mark worldwide. This will then become Prabhas’ solo 1000 crore grosser apart from the Baahubali series which was directed by SS Rajamouli.

Indian 2 also releasing as Bharateeyudu 2 is a sequel to yesteryear Blockbuster, Indian which released as Bharateeyudu in Telugu. The film did great even in Telugu and brought Shankar many Telugu fans for his directorial skills. Bharateeyudu enjoys cult following and viewership even till today. There is a good buzz for the sequel here in Telugu as well. Now, The film is all set for release this July 12th and Bharateeyudu 2 pre-release event details are out officially.

Bharateeyudu 2 Telugu rights have been bought by Asian Suresh Entertainments. Bharateeyudu 2 pre release event is planned on 7th July at N-Coventions in Hyderabad from 6 PM onwards. Kamal Haasan, Shankar and all the other important cast and crew would be attending the grand event. However, there is no confirmation regarding the chief guest for the event. Any Tollywood top celebrity may become a part of this event as the chief guest. Ram Charan may be the guy as he is currently working with Shankar for Game Changer.

Bharateeyudu 2 will be important for Kamal Haasan as he scored greatly with his previous outing, Vikram even in Telugu. It brought the much needed relief for Kamal Haasan both in Telugu and Tamil Markets. He will be eyeing to continue this further for his upcoming films with Bharateeyudu 2.

Indian 2 Imax poster: What’s wrong with Shankar?

0

Indian 2 is just one week away from release. The film stars Legendary Actor Kamal Haasan directed by Maverick Director Shankar. Kamal Haasan recently tasted huge success with Vikram and revived hopes for Indian 2 which was on floors then. But the hype for Indian 2 now remains normal and there is no great buzz. The bookings from the Overseas market are also low. The promotional activity of the team is not upto the mark and the same is witnessed even with the just released Indian 2 IMAX poster. It gives rise to a question like, “What’s wrong with Shankar?”

The team is indirectly killing the buzz of the film with these low-key posters. As said above, the IMAX poster looks too odd and doesn’t give a thumpy feel. Kamal Haasan looks cartoonish and funny in the poster as well. This is surely a very serious issue. Shankar, the director of the film must take care of all these things but he remains unbothered. It also looks like the team and Shankar may have decided that the film would become a blockbuster just after its release.

The film requires great talk to become successful. But this promotional content and the non-seriousness of the team feels like it may not receive the desired result. Let’s hope for the best and see how the things go on July 12th.

0

Actress Samantha often becomes involved in many controversies in social media platforms. She also gets trolled over her over-enthusiastic behaviours through her posts and opinions as well. She sometimes even engages in wars with people’s opinions as well. Now she triggered a big debate about a medication through a story posted by her on her Instagram account. Samantha’s recommendation of Hydrogen Peroxide has gone wrong now.

Samantha has been battling with health related problems for few years. She even talked about these many times. Now she posted a picture of her inhaling Hydrogen Peroxide and even appealed people to use that to get rid of health problems. This didn’t go well with one man called The Liver Doc, a doctor netizen who found fault with her appeal. He felt that Hydrogen Peroxide was harmful and may lead to many problems when used vigorously. He even termed Samantha as Health and Science Illiterate in his post on X/Twitter.

Samantha again took to Instagram to give a clarification. She expressed that she felt bad for the above said doctor taking objection to her strongly. She also said that she took it as provocative and felt targeted just because she was celebrity. The Actress stated that she had just referred this to people who could afford and also to them who were looking for an alternative medication rather than a conventional one. Samantha also felt that there could be both pros and cons of every medication.

Shocking: Nag Ashwin’s direct political stand

0

Tollywood celebrities have slowly started moving into politics now. The much celebrated actor, Pawan Kalyan established a political party and ventured into politics. Few celebrities have openly stood with him and now many seem to be following them. Pawan Kalyan went into an alliance with TDP and won the election in Andhra Pradesh recently. Things have changed quickly afterwards. Nag Ashwin, the director of Kalki 2898 AD has now taken a direct political stand to everyone’s surprise.

Recently we saw Noted and Oscar Award winner MM Keeravaani taking a direct politcal stand by making comments against former CM, Jagan Mohan Reddy and his party. Now Nag Ashwin too has joined with Keeravaani by uttering same words. The director interacted with press reporters today and expressed happiness over TDP winning in Andhra Pradesh directly. He told that they became ecstatic when the party won in the election. He replied to a question about the situation if TDP had lost the election. Nag Ashwin’s recent directorial, Kalki 2898 AD enjoyed a massive ticket price hike and thereby the film is performing stunningly.

This looks very unfortunate. A film Industry which usually maintains a neutral stand has become a mere political affialiated Industry. We have to see how many celebrities in the future would come forward to speak even more grossly and openly about politics. Such a situation has never occurred in any film Industry in Indian film history.
