Atlee Dismisses Don 3 Rumours, Talks Jawan 2

Tamil Director Atlee rose to fame with continuous big hits, and currently, he is working on a massive project with Allu Arjun as the lead, AA22. The film is already creating waves, and Atlee, in a recent interview, talked about the possibility of Jawan 2 and Don 3 rumors.

Recently, there was a lot of buzz that Shah Rukh Khan had set a condition for the makers of Don 3, stating he would only participate if Atlee was the director. The sequel, led by Farhan Akhtar, was originally planned to feature Ranveer Singh. When questioned about this, Atlee dismissed it with a laugh, referring to it as just a rumor.

Atlee clarified that while he is keen on reuniting with Shah Rukh Khan, Jawan 2 is not happening anytime soon. The director stated that although he is excited to collaborate with SRK again, a sequel to Jawan could only materialize “maybe after some years” and will not be their immediate next project. 

He also emphasized that they would work together again only when the right idea comes organically. He also dismissed reports of directing Shah Rukh Khan in Don 3, laughing off the speculation and calling it “just a rumor.”

Akhil Akkineni has faced a big disaster like Agent (2023), and he needs a big blockbuster to set up his career. His upcoming movie is Lenin, which co-stars Bhagyashree Borse as the female lead, and the film’s release date options are out now.

As said above, the last theatrical release of the actor, Agent, was a terrible failure that pushed him into a very difficult position. After that, Akhil took a long time to sign his next project. Finally, he okayed Lenin, and the shoot started last year.

The team recently released the first single, and along with that, they also revealed the release date. Akhil’s Lenin is set for a grand worldwide theatrical release on May 1, which is a very good date to get solid collections at the box office.

Big Update on Jana Nayagan: Supreme Court Appeal on Cards

While Vijay’s fans are eagerly waiting for Jana Nayagan to receive clearance from the court or the Censor Board, the film’s issues remain unresolved. The latest update is that a copy of the judgment passed by the first Division Bench of the Madras High Court has now been released.

Vijay’s Jana Nayagan Continues to Face Delays, Frustrating Fans

Following this development, the producer is expected to challenge the judgment by approaching the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, frustration is growing among fans as Jana Nayagan continues to face delays and is not getting the clearance. Some fans feel that instead of moving to the Supreme Court, the producer should consider approaching the Revising Committee of the CBFC.

But there is no guarantee that the Revising Committee route will bring quick or positive results. The process is likely to take several months, as a new Revising Committee would need to be formed. After that, the members must review the film, which itself could take weeks due to scheduling and screening queues. This lengthy process could further delay the film’s release.

Jana Nayagan’s Court Proceedings Continue to Prolong

According to the judgment, the Madras High Court Division Bench set aside the earlier order of the Single Judge, who had directed the CBFC to issue a certificate to the film. The court ruled that the CBFC Chairperson acted within legal authority in referring Jana Nayagan to the Revising Committee. 

The judges observed that the film contains certain visuals and dialogues suggesting foreign powers creating large-scale religious conflict in India, which could disturb religious harmony. The court also noted that the film includes several army-related references, but no defence expert was included in the Examining Committee.

The court emphasized that these were serious issues requiring proper verification before granting certification. It further stated that the filmmakers were not given adequate opportunity to present their case, which made the earlier writ petition legally unsustainable. 

As a result, the appeal was allowed, the Single Judge’s order was set aside, and the matter was sent back for reconsideration under proper legal procedure. The court made it clear that the final decision on whether the referral to the Revising Committee was lawful will now be examined afresh.

Spirit Bags Massive Netflix Deal

Spirit Bags Massive Netflix Deal

With the combination of Prabhas and Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the film Spirit has already gathered huge craze, and with the help of that craze, the OTT rights of the film have been sold to Netflix for all languages at a huge price. 

The making cost of the film (excluding Prabhas and Sandeep Vanga’s remunerations) is lower than the OTT deal itself. These figures indicate that the film will see massive box office profits even before its release. The rights are said to be closer to 200 Cr for all languages, while the cost of the film is less than 150 Cr.

The power of the Prahas and Sandeep Reddy Vanga combination and the planning of the director have made this possible for Spirit. All films of Sandeep Vanga run on powerful characterizations, not on VFX or some other big-budget aspect, so the profits will always be huge.

Mahesh Babu’s Next Not with Sandeep Vanga

There was buzz that Mahesh Babu’s next film after Varanasi was likely to be with Sandeep Vanga, but it now appears there is no chance of that happening, as the director’s lineup is proceeding as per his initial commitments.

After Spirit, many expected Sandeep Vanga to work on a project with Mahesh Babu, especially since Mahesh Babu is also expected to be free after the SSR project, leading to speculation that the film would start immediately.

But the producers and now hero Ranbir Kapoor have officially confirmed that Sandeep Vanga’s next film is Animal Park, with the shoot scheduled to begin in 2027. Hence, there is no immediate possibility of a Mahesh Babu–Sandeep Vanga collaboration. Moreover, after Animal Park, Vanga is also committed to directing a film with Allu Arjun.

Ranbir Kapoor Talks about the Animal Franchise

Ranbir Kapoor revealed that Animal Park will feature him in two roles: as both the hero and the villain. This dual role brings a new dimension to the franchise and promises a more intense and intricate storyline.

Ranbir also praised Sandeep Reddy Vanga, referring to him as an “incredibly original director.” He mentioned that they have been sharing ideas since the start and that the direction of the story is “very exciting.”
