Special Team Formed to Approve Star Hero Body Doubles

Having body doubles for heroes or actors is not a new thing in any cinema industry, but amidst the recent pan-Indian biggies trend, this thing has become a new normal for every movie. The latest news is that a star hero formed a special team to approve body doubles for him.

Usually, dupes or body doubles for actors are used for big action sequences or any risky shots. But as said above, in recent years this usage has crossed the limits as many heroes started using body doubles for even simple scenes.

Body Doubles usage is getting bigger – A Star Hero approves a special team

The latest news in the industry is that a star hero has even formed a special team to approve his body doubles. The team will check,and approve his body double scenes in the film.

The reason for this is that if the movie’s team misses anything, it will go very badly in public. So the team will watch all the scenes and approve if they are satisfied. This is certainly a good thing to do, as multiple checks are needed when body doubles are placed in a movie.

Now, in this age of the digital era, audiences can easily find out if any mistake happens and put it on social media. But the heroes need to restrict the use of body doubles to an extent. This is not only a mistake from the heroes but also from the director and producers.

Shocking: Kamal Haasan’s wrong step and wrong attitude

Kollywood Veteran Actor Kamal Haasan caused a big controversy in recent times with his comments at his film Thug Life Audio Launch. The Actor stated that Kannada language took its birth from Tamil, and this stirred a big debate and criticism on social media platforms. Many Kannada Activists and Kannada Film Personalities saw this as a personal insult and demanded an apology from Kamal Haasan. They even banned the film in Karnataka.

However, Kamal Haasan failed to understand this issue and continued his stand, refusing to apologize. This attitude came as a big shock from an Actor who is known nationwide. His statement that Kannada took birth from Tamil has no relevance or proof. Still, the Actor believed in this against the sentiments of Karnataka people and approached the High Court requesting the Court to allow the release of Thug Life in the state.

The High Court objected to the statement of Kamal Haasan and questioned if he was a linguist or historian to have made this statement. The Court directed Kamal Haasan to formally tender an apology to solve this issue by respecting the sentiments of the people of Karnataka.

Surprisingly, Kamal Haasan pushed aside the recommendation of Karnataka High Court and stated that he wouldn’t apologize. Kamal Haasan officially stated that the apology was for a mistake, not a misunderstanding. With this, he still believes that Kannada originated from Tamil. This surely looks like a childish act by a celebrated Actor of the Country.

No one knows if the Actor feels he wouldn’t have to respect the direction of the High Court as well. This attitude has gained him a lot of criticism on social media platforms. Thug Life will not be releasing in Karnataka as a result of this. This will surely be a hit for the film’s revenue there. As the High Court opined, Kamal Haasan should’ve ended this in the first place with an apology, but he made it a state and language war, which is truly unfortunate.

Akhanda 2 vs OG: Release date clash

Akhanda 2 starring Balakrishna is one of the most awaited films of Tollywood. The film was initially announced to release on 25th September this year. Surprisingly, Pawan Kalyan starrer OG also fixed its release date on the same date, inviting a clash. Recently, Tollywood circles have speculated that Akhanda 2 is likely to be postponed to December.

But, the team of Akhanda 2 doesn’t want to move away, sticking to the 25th September date. The Teaser that is schedule to release on the birthday of Balakrishna will also announce the release date officially. It implies that the team of Akhanda 2 haven’t contacted the team of OG regarding the release date.

The team of Akhanda 2 must be careful in fixing the release date since it is a sequel and contains great hype. Releasing in competition with Pawan Kalyan’s film will surely be a risk. The hype and expectations around OG are sky high and this will also disturb Akhanda’s prospects.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu Postponed

Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu, which has been delayed for almost five years, was all set to be released in theaters this June, but the latest shocking news is that Hari Hara Veera Mallu has been postponed.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu – Too Many Delays and now Postponement

Reportedly, the film has financing issues, and that is why the theatrical release has been stalled at the last moment. The team informed closer people that they are looking for a release in the 2nd week of July, but we need to see whether Prime Video will be okay with it.

Even to release the film in July, AM Ratnam and the team need to release solid visual content in the form of a teaser/trailer, and a huge business has to happen to clear all financial issues. Like many movies, the producer of HHVM borrowed money from financiers. 

Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu postponed due to financial issues

All these issues need to be settled before the release, and resolving these financial issues requires a miraculous turnaround. Someone needs to step in and either give assurance or bring in that kind of business for Hari Hara Veera Mallu—Part 1: Sword vs. Spirit.

Right now, fans are extremely disappointed as Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu postponed its theatrical release. The film was already having low buzz, and this postponement will hurt it more.

Karnataka High Court slams Kamal Haasan

Kollywood Veteran Actor Kamal Haasan recently made controversial comments in the Audio Launch of his upcoming film, Thug Life. He opined that the language Kannada originated from Tamil, which caused a stir on social media platforms. Many Kannada Activists and Kannada Film Personalities decided to ban the film in Karnataka. The Actor has approached the High Court of Karnataka to allow the release in the state.

Karnataka High Court has reportedly come down heavily on the Actor for his statements. The Court questioned the Actor if he had been a historian or linguist to have passed on his opinion, also adding that he should have apologized to solve everything. This is not a response that the Actor wished from the Court.

Kamal Haasan has failed to understand the situation. He messed up things, refusing to apologize, and now, approaching the Court is pointless when people of Karnataka and Personalities of the Kannada Film Industry are unhappy. Now, he wrote a letter again to the Karnataka Film Chamber praising Kannada language and Karnataka without offering an apology, which looks senseless.

Thug Life Controversy – Kamal Haasan writes a letter to KFCC

In concern with his latest film, Thug Life’s release controversy in Karnataka, Kamal Haasan, the legendary actor, writes a public letter to the KFCC—Kannada Film Chamber of Commerce. It was issued after the high court slammed the actor for his comments.

Thug Life Release Controversy in Karnataka – Kamal responds with a Letter

It is widely known that the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC) banned the release of Thug Life in Karnataka after he made a controversial statement that “Kannada is born out of Tamil.” 

In a letter addressed to the KFCC president, Haasan said his comments at the Thug Life audio launch in Chennai were “misunderstood” and clarified that they were made out of “genuine affection” for the legendary Dr. Rajkumar’s family in Karnataka.

Before that, the High Court slammed Kamal Haasan and said that the circumstances were created by him, and an apology should have resolved everything. To clear up the Thug Life controversy, Kamal Haasan writes a letter to KFCC.

The Thug Life actor expressed disappointment that his comments were misinterpreted. “It pains me that my statement has been misunderstood, despite being spoken with genuine intent,” the Thug Life actor wrote. He also underscored that there is no contention over the proud legacy of Kannada. 

“Like Tamil, Kannada too has a rich literary and cultural tradition,” he affirmed, noting that he holds both languages and cultures in high esteem. The letter appeared to be an attempt to address hurt sentiments and defuse the brewing tensions between the Kannada film fraternity and his production team.
