Director Karthik Subbaraj Opens Up on Game Changer Debacle

Director Karthik Subbaraj is one of the renowned filmmakers of South Indian cinema. His films have become a discussion point among movie lovers, irrespective of the box office results. Director Karthik Subbaraj opens up on Game Changer’s debacle.

It is widely known that Shankar and Ram Charan’s Game Changer was released in theaters this Sankranthi, and it became a big disaster at the box office. The film’s story was written by Karthik Subbaraj, which was also one of the exciting factors for audiences before the release.

However, after watching the film, many felt that there is no signature of Karthik in the film. During the promotions of his upcoming film, Retro, starring Suriya, Director Karthik Subbaraj opens up on Game Changer’s debacle.

According to KS, he gave only a one-line storyline for Game Changer to Shankar. In his version, the IAS officer was grounded, and he was excited to see Shankar’s version. After that, many writers came on board for the film, and the story was changed.

Maybe the involvement of too many writers has changed the crux of the movie. A few netizens are already criticizing Shankar for changing Karthik’s version of the story, while a few others feel that the story was an age-old one anyway.

Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 on OTT – Makers Desperately Need a Huge Response

Chiyaan Vikram’s Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 was released in theaters recently, and though the film received fairly good reviews from audiences and critics, it did not receive the desired result at the box office. Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 is now out on OTT, and the makers desperately need a huge response.

The film was a unique attempt, as for the first time, a second part was released before the first part of a film. The team of Veera Dheera Sooran designed the screenplay like that. 

Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 fails at the Box Office despite Positive Reviews

The film did carry a big buzz at the initial stage, but due to multiple postponements and release hurdles, the buzz went down, which resulted in a below-par start at the box office. But the film received positive WOM and reviews, and had a jump in collections after opening day, but that jump was not enough for a box office success.

Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 needs to receive a massive response on OTT

VDS (Veera Dheera Soora in Telugu), the film, collected around 65 Cr gross worldwide and ended up as a cost failure despite positive reviews. As the movie has a prequel to be released, the team hopes that the film will get a big response on OTT, which would create a big buzz about part 1.

Chiyaan Vikram’s Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 is now out on OTT, and the makers desperately need a huge response. We have seen in many instances that a part of the film ends up as a cost failure, but the following part recovers the loss and ends with huge profits.

The producers of Veera Dheera Sooran would also expect the same. The movie (Veera Dheera Soora in Telugu) is available for streaming on Prime Video in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada.

Siddhu Jonnalagadda Under Fire: Harsh Reactions from Industry and Audiences

Siddhu Jonnalagada emerges as one of the most promising young actors in Tollywood with the Tillu Series. He also joined the 100 Cr club with Tillu Square. But now, Siddhu Jonnalagadda is under fire because of harsh reactions from the industry and audiences.

Siddhu Throws Star Tantrums After Tillu Square

As said above, the actor achieved a big success with Tillu Square. However, after that, there was a rumor/report talking about how Siddhu is already considering him a big star with that success. Also, he openly stated in an interview that he asked for more remuneration for his recent release, Jack.

Did Siddhu’s overinvolvement cause the disastrous result for Jack?

During Jack’s shooting time, there have been continuous rumors that Siddhu is getting overly involved in director Bhaskar’s work, and there were also reports of some creative differences between the director and the hero, which became a big burden on the producer.

As a result of all this, Jack was released in theaters and ended up as a big disaster. So many audiences and reviewers felt that the hero’s characterization was similar to DJ Tillu. With such a disastrous result, Siddhu Jonnalagadda is under fire because of harsh reactions from the industry and audiences.

Audiences and Industry Criticise the over-involvement of Siddhu Jonnalagadda in Jack

There is a heavy backlash and criticism of the actor as he feels like a big star with one big hit, which increases his remuneration. With the failure of Jack, people ask whether Siddhu should decrease the remuneration and stop being overly involved in the director’s work.

Because it kills the freedom of the director, and there is also a concern about the acting prowess of Siddhu, as he got the criticism that he is still in a Tillu hangover and not coming out of it.

Jack’s Failuare: Siddhu needs to get a reality check and start afresh

Undoubtedly, Siddhu Jonnalagadda is a promising young actor who is having a good market, but actors should always be in reality and should take success and failure equally, and not take the success to the head, which is very important. 

On the acting side also, the star boy needs to come out of the Tillu hangover and should prove that he is much bigger than that. His next release is Telusu Kada, a love story, which is expected to give him a solid comeback as a star and actor.

Pahalgam Terrorist Attack: Netizens Attack Sai Pallavi

The incidents of film celebrities becoming the target of netizens/the public due to their controversial statements are not new. Sai Pallavi, the renowned actress of Indian cinema, has encountered a similar issue now. Netizens attack Sai Pallavi after the shocking and devastating Pahalgam Terrorist Attack.

Sai Pallavi becomes the target of Netizens

During a January 2022 interview for a Telugu film, Sai Pallavi found herself in a difficult situation. She discussed her Naxal role and anti-violence stance, and the Indian army. She intended to highlight diverse national perspectives and denounce violence, but her statement angered the public and led to a social media uproar.

An old interview continues to haunt Sai Pallavi

In October 2024, during the release of Amaran, a brief version of the interview emerged, prompting claims that she referred to the Indian Army as terrorists, which caused a social media uproar. As said above, the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 27 civilians has reignited the controversy. 

The actress took to her official social media account and expressed her condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones. However, the netizens did not accept her and said she was just lying to be in the good books of everyone.

Netizens attack Sai Pallavi after the shocking and devastating Pahalgam Terrorist Attack. There are many quotes and replies to her posts with clips of her old interview. Though a section of social media supports the Premam actress, the situation is very heated, and most of the social media users are trying to troll/accuse her.

The Deadliest Terrorist Attack at Pahalgam Shocks Indian Nation

On April 22, 2025, a terrorist attack occurred in Pahalgam, specifically at the Baisaran Valley, resulting in the deaths of at least 28 tourists and injuring more than 20 others. The attackers, reportedly from a militant group, opened fire on unsuspecting families enjoying the scenic area, which is often referred to as “mini-Switzerland” due to its picturesque views. This incident marks one of the deadliest attacks on civilians in the region in recent years.

Cricket Buzz Lifts Peddi After Pushpa

After Pushpa Part 1’s release, many factors helped create the massive buzz around Part 2. Among those, one of the main factors is cricketers. The mannerism of Pushpa was imitated by star cricketers on the ground and on other occasions. Now, cricket buzz lifts Peddi after Pushpa.

The cricketers celebrating by imitating Pushparaj’s mannerism during the fall of wickets went viral, and even the official cricket pages heightened the craze by using Pushpa dialogues. These kinds of things helped the craze around Pushpa 2. 

Now the same is happening for Ram Charan’s Peddi. It is widely known that on Ram Charan’s birthday, the first glimpse of the film was released, and it ended with a cricket shot, which worked so well, and now it is continuously trending on the internet with the ongoing IPL.

On April 23rd, Hardik Pandya’s Mumbai Indians scored a big victory over Pat Cummins’s Sunrisers Hyderabad team. After the win, the official page of the Mumbai Indians team posted the cricket shot from Peddi, and it went viral. Much like Pushpa, cricket buzz lifts Ram Charan’s Peddi.

This will certainly help the film a lot to reach wider and bigger audiences. The team released the glimpse at the right time, and it struck gold. Especially for other languages, this will help massively.

Empuraan on OTT: The Crucial Test Begins

Mohanlal’s L2: Empuraan, the biggest hit of Malayalam cinema, has entered the digital field. The film was released in theaters in March and opened to mixed reviews. The film scored good numbers at the box office, but not at the expected level. The crucial test begins for Empuraan as it arrives on OTT.

Lucifer was a big hit at the box office in Malayalam, and it emerged as the 2nd biggest grosser for Mollywood. After its OTT arrival, the film became bigger and reached many audiences. Even in Telugu, it was remade as Godfather with Chiranjeevi, but most of the people opined that Lucifer is good compared to Godfather, as there are many changes in the Telugu version.

Empuraan fails to work in other languages

The huge response for Lucifer helped Empuraan massively, which was evident during the advance bookings and openings. But the film opened with below-par WOM and reviews, and because of such a response, it failed to register good numbers in other languages.

But in Malayalam, the sequel to Lucifer hype works well for Empuraan, and it created all-time records for first-week collections. After the 1st week, the mixed response started to affect the film, and it did not do much from the 2nd weekend.

Empuraan needs to work massively on OTT

Now the crucial test begins for Mohanlal’s Empuraan as it arrives on OTT. The movie is available for streaming on Hotstar in Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada. The response is crucial for L2E, as it will have another part to come.

So, to create buzz on the third part, Empuraan needs to work big on OTT, and in case it fails to impress the OTT viewers, the next part will not see the big buzz even for Malayali audiences. The Hindi version of the film will stream 4 weeks from now, as it has an 8-week theatrical window.

Jack to Stream Early on OTT

Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s latest film, Jack, hit theaters on April 10th and received a unanimous negative response/backlash from audiences and critics for its bad content. Like most of the movies, the film is on its way to making an early digital debut. Jack is set to stream early on OTT.

After the blockbuster Tillu Square, Siddhu Jonnalagada sees a massive setback with Jack. The film ends up with single-digit gross collections, and it has put Siddhu’s market in a big huddle. Also, Vaishnavi Chaitanya faces back-to-back setbacks with Love Me and Jack.

Jack to make its OTT Debut on May 1st?

Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s Jack is set to stream early on OTT. The film was actually planned for the 2nd week of May streaming on Netflix, but it’s said to be arriving early on OTT. From 1st May, the film will be available for streaming on OTT in all languages.

Directed by Bommarillu Bhaskar, JACK – Konchem Krack was made as a spy comedy, but it failed miserably because of the silly scenes and characters. The film was criticized for its poor portrayal of RAW officers.

No Grand Hindi Release for Hit 3, Here’s Why

Nani’s HIT 3 is all set to arrive in theaters worldwide in another eight days, and the actor is busy promoting the film in various languages. However, despite his valiant effort, HIT 3 will not have a grand release in Hindi.

It is widely known that Nani continuously makes good films, and his films reach all languages’ audiences through OTT, but theatrically he is still waiting for a pan-India blockbuster. The fans and audiences anticipated that the third film in the HIT franchise had higher chances to work at the pan-India level, especially in Hindi.

The OTT Deal Disrupts the Plans of HIT 3’s Grand Release in Hindi

Nani and Srinidhi Shetty are doing the promotions in all languages. But the news is that the film will not be released in national multiplexes in Hindi due to the 4-week theatrical window for OTT. 

Nani’s HIT 3 will not be released in National Multiplexes in North India

The OTT rights of the film have been sold for a huge price to Netflix, and the four-week theatrical window will apply to all languages. So, this means Nani’s HIT 3 will not have a grand release in Hindi.

Also, the film faces good competition in other languages, such as Suriya’s Retro in Tamil and Ajay Devgn’s Raid 2 in Hindi. Hopefully HIT-3 can deliver some good numbers in other languages, and in Telugu it will certainly open big at the box office.
