Darshan from Jail: Please Kill Me

0

Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, arrested again in August for the Renukaswamy murder case, told the court that life in jail has become unbearable. He added, “Please pass an order to give me poison in court.” 

During a video hearing at the 64th City Civil and Sessions Court, he said he had not seen sunlight for over a month and developed a fungal infection on his hands. Upon hearing his plea to kill, the judge immediately instructed Darshan not to make such a demand.

Breaking down in tears, Darshan pleaded, “I can’t live like this anymore. Please give me poison.” He also asked for basic items like a pillow, bedsheets, and home-cooked food. After the judge spoke, he nodded quietly and remained silent.

Darshan, who looked strong at the time of arrest, appeared weak during the hearing. His alleged girlfriend, actress Pavithra Gowda, was also arrested at her Bengaluru home.

 A video showed her being taken by police, visibly upset as the media surrounded her house. This news is now being shared online as the fans show sympathy to Darshan, who wants to kill himself. 

But there are other netizens who do not want to support him and feel that he deserves the punishment.

Kantara Chapter One Kerala Release in Trouble

0

Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter One has a super craze across India, and all are awaiting the film’s theatrical release. While the film received good offers from Telugu states, it faces trouble for the release in Kerala. 

There are ongoing disputes between Prithviraj Productions and FEUOK (one of Kerala’s theater associations) over revenue share terms. These issues are likely to sort out, but if the issue continues, then in that case, FEUOK screens will not screen Kantara Chapter One.

Normally, these issues will be sorted out before release. KGF 2 did huge in Kerala, and the Kantara team also expects such huge revenue. This is the reason they are demanding a bigger percentage in distributor share, which FEUOK is not ready to agree to.

Set to be released in theaters on October 2, 2025, the Kantara prequel has Rukmini Vasanth playing a key role. Produced by Hombale Films, the movie will be released in seven languages—Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Bengali, and English. Music is composed by Ajaneesh Loknath.

The Tamil movie lovers were extremely happy when the sequel of 96, starring Vijay Sethupathi and Trisha, was announced. However, they would be deeply disappointed, as the sequel is said to be dropped now.

Directed by Prem Kumar, the film is a blockbuster in Kollywood. A few months ago, the director and team announced a sequel for the movie.

But there is a buzz that some creative differences have happened within the team, and the film may not happen. Lately, director Prem Kumar’s official announcement about his next projects confirms that the film, 96 sequel, has been dropped.

Prem Kumar’s Next Projects:

  1. An adventure survival drama with 9 characters.
  2. An action thriller starring Fahadh Faasil in the lead role.
  3. A film where the plot revolves around a love story but without a heroine.

If we observe the above-mentioned list, there is no mention of the second part of 96, so it is confirmed that the sequel plan has dropped.

Kalki 2898 AD America Premieres Record Untouchable

0

Undoubtedly, for Kalki 2898 AD, the best-performing territory is North America. The film has created a sensation and many benchmarks, from advance bookings to opening day to full run.

With 3.9 million premieres, the Nag Ashwin directorial became the biggest Indian film opener, as it beat RRR by a big margin. After that, Devara, Pushpa 2, and many biggies were released, but they were unable to break the Kalki premiere.

Pawan Kalyan’s OG initially seemed to break it, but the bookings are not going at the expected pace. Now the premieres of this action drama are expected at 3 million.

This means Kalki 2898 AD will still hold the North America record, and it seems to be sitting there for some more months. Maybe only SSMB 29 can break Kalki’s premieres comfortably.

Su From So is one of the biggest blockbusters in the Kannada film industry. Its OTT release was highly awaited, but the response from viewers has turned out to be surprisingly mixed.

Produced by Raj B. Shetty, the film was also released in Telugu and enjoyed a decent run in theaters. Since it performed exceptionally well at the box office, audiences were eagerly waiting for its OTT release.

The movie recently started streaming on Jio Hotstar in Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. Many expected it to receive an even bigger response on OTT.
