0

Until now, the way Netflix subscribers have got used to a method where one person pays the bills while several others use the same account. That’s been going on for a long time now. Maybe it’s been since the streaming giant became a popular choice for Indians. However, the OTT giant Netflix is now moving to end this practice.

The OTT platform, through an e-mail to users, now tells them that their account is only for them and their household members. And that if anybody else outside their household is using their account, they must transfer their profile to a new account (for which they will have to pay), and consider changing their password.

This move from Netflix is certainly sudden, without any prior notice, but not unexpected. Because for a long time now, there have been rumors that Netflix will soon end the practice of password sharing between its users and will take the measures to do so.

The streaming giant, in a new blog post, wrote, “Starting today, we will be sending this email to members who are sharing Netflix outside their household in India. A Netflix account is for use by one household. Everyone living in that household can use Netflix wherever they are — at home, on the go, on holiday — and take advantage of new features like Transfer Profile and Manage Access and Devices.

“We recognise that our members have many entertainment choices. It is why we continue to invest heavily in a wide variety of new films and TV shows — so whatever your taste, mood, or language and whoever you are watching with, there is always something satisfying to watch on Netflix.”

It is very well known to everyone that Pan-Indian star Prabhas and young director Nag Ashwin are coming up with a futuristic sci-fi drama, Project K. The movie, which is set to be released on January 12, 2024 (can be changed) on worldwide screens, has Deepika Padukone playing the female lead and Kamal Haasan as the antagonist.

Yesterday, the makers shared the first look of Prabhas in the film, but it did not go well with the fans. The first look was not up to the expectations, which resulted in the fans being disappointed. Therefore, the makers decided to delete the poster on social media and instead, they published a new version of the poster.

The new poster has a plain background behind Prabhas. The makers have not changed anything else, and they have just eliminated the futuristic world put in place from the previously released poster. This is for the first time that a film’s team deleted a first look poster of the hero after releasing it on social media. With the first look poster receiving negative response from audience, the team deleted the first look and released the new one with a background change.

Some netizens asked why the team had deleted the previous poster when there was no significant difference in the appearance of Prabhas in the new one. However, many fans of Prabhas hope that the glimpse that will be released at SDCC 2023 will meet their expectations.

Along with Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan, the movie also features the Big B Amitabh Bachchan and Bollywood beauty Disha Patani in crucial roles. Vyjayanthi Movies produced this big-budget film. Santhosh Narayanan will compose the tunes and background score.

Hidimbha Movie Review – Thrilling outing but not everyone’s cup of tea

0

Movie: Hidimbha
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Ashwin, Nandita Shwetha, Rajeev Kanakala, Subhalekha Sudhakar, Sijju, and Makarand Deshpande
Director: Aneel Kanneganti
Produced By: Gangapatnam Sridhar, Anil Sunkara
Release Date: 20th July 2023

Story: The city of Hyderabad is terrified as many women go missing. Aadhya (Nandita Swetha) gets appointed as the head of a special investigation unit by the government to quickly capture the culprit and bring justice to families who are grieving. Abhay (Ashwin), who has a past connection with Aadhya is also the part of the theme. What are the problems faced by Abhay and Aadhya in solving the case? What happened to their relationship in the past? Who is the Killer? Answers to these questions form the rest of the film.

Analysis: The opening of the film is very intriguing, with disturbing music and a frightening frame, immediately makes one curious about the plot. The theme of the missing girls is also perfectly set in the film. However, the follow-up sequences were a bit ordinary. Despite having a strong conflict between the leads, also the duel between them and the higher officials, the conflict was not executed perfectly. Some fun and romance parts come and go. Towards the interval, the narrative again picks up some pace.

The actual story, and suspense of the movie is revealed at the start of the second half. Although the flashback is a bit long, the consistent and cohesive tone keeps one engaged intermittently. The suspense unfolds and when it all looks like leading to a possible climax, the director surprises with a terrific twist. Although the background of that turn is a bit unconvincing, the thrilling factor in the scene makes up for it.

Performances: Ashwin looked good in a police officer role and because of his well toned body, the action sequences looked believable. However, his diction and performance could have been better at places. Nandita Shwetha was fine. Makarand Deshpande and Sijju performed well in pivotal roles while Subhalekha Sudhakar, Sanjay Swaroop, Raghu Kunche, and Sreenivasa Reddy were ok.

Plus Points:

  • Main Theme related scenes
  • Flashback
  • Climax
  • Background Score

Minus Points:

  • Patchy Narrative at parts
  • Some unclear characters/scenes
  • Few shocking scenes

Verdict:

Overall, Hidimbha the film is a well-intended thriller with an engrossing plot. The important sequences and twists work well for the movie, while the narration in the middle portions acts as a spoiler part. It can be watched once for the crime thriller lovers, but for others it has its limitations because of the gore content.

0

It is very well known that Rana Daggubati is currently in San Diego for the exciting Comic-Con event for two projects, one is Prabhas’s Project-K and another one is his new Pan Indian film, Hiranyakashyap, a movie based on a mythological figure. However, director Gunasekhar is not happy with this announcement, and he took to his Twitter account to vent out the anger.

The issue arose because director, Gunasekhar, had earlier announced the Hiranyakashyap project. Gunasekhar posted a tweet which indirectly hints at Rana’s new announcement. “While making God the central theme of your story, you must also keep in mind that God keeps an eye on your integrity. Unethical acts will be answered through ethical means,” wrote Gunasekhar.

https://twitter.com/Gunasekhar1/status/1681678028253040640?t=k1MtEPQsxN4fgCrjijZ0Hw&s=19

While Rana has remained silent and did not respond to this, Gunasekhar seems to have not moved on from the project and wants himself to be the part of it.

If we go into the past, the Hiranyakasyap project was supposed to be directed by Gunasekhar, and he worked on the story for years. Rana had also said okay to the story and according to Gunasekhar, Trivikram himself approached him to write the dialogues for the film. Gunasekhar was pleased on that, but after that Trivikram reportedly introduced changes to the entire script and.

So Rana was very much impressed with Trivikram’s version and now Gunasekhar is out of the project. It looks like he can not take this and showed his anger through the social media post.
