Atlee Could’ve Prevented Mixed Buzz on Bunny’s Transformation

  Allu Arjun, the reigning pan-India actor, is widely known as the 'Stylish Star' by his fans due to his stylish look and mannerisms from the start of his career.
 Over the years, he has effortlessly carried the reputation of this title with his onscreen presence and offscreen confidence.

But for the first time, his offscreen look is getting mixed feedback from the audience.
 In recent days, Allu Arjun has been showing off a new hair color that is a mix of light golden and natural brown. This new style has become a topic of conversation among fans because he has been seen with it quite often in public.

It is not clear if this new look is part of his transformation for his upcoming film with director Atlee.
 However, this unusual offscreen look has started getting mixed reactions from fans and audiences. It’s surprising that his look has been shared even before any content from the film has been released or any character details have been introduced.

Normally, big actors keep their looks secret until something related to the film is shared by the team.
 But Allu Arjun is frequently spotted with this new hairstyle.

If Atlee had shared some content from AA22, it could have made a big difference.
 Audiences would have known about the main character’s look and story, and they would have understood the reason behind such an unusual hairstyle.

Since nothing has been revealed about the film’s genre or characters yet, some confusion has affected audience expectations.
 However, Icon fans are liking Bunny’s new style a lot. On the other hand, a few audiences have started criticizing it, which is rare as he has rarely faced any criticism regarding his looks or transformations until now.

It would have been better if Atlee and his team had shared some content, even a first look poster, to set the right expectations.


Allu Arjun is reportedly playing a dual role in the film, which is expected to be a major pan-India release.
 Deepika Padukone has been confirmed as one of the female leads. The film is expected to be a high-octane sci-fi entertainer with exciting action sequences.

Dacoit – It’s High Time to Wake Up!

It has been a while since talented actor and writer Adivi Sesh released his last film. After playing the main role in the second part of the Hit series, Sesh had a small role in the third part. He is now set to release two films back-to-back in a short time after staying away from the spotlight for about three years.

Sesh's much-anticipated romantic action thriller, 'Dacoit,' was originally planned to release on March 19th.
 However, recent reports suggest that the film might avoid a direct competition with Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic at the box office. Surprisingly, the team has not confirmed or denied these unverified reports, which has led to more confusion about the actual release plans.

There are strong rumors in the media that the makers are considering pushing the release date to April after deciding to delay it from March 19th.
 Still, there has been no official statement from the team, even though many summer slots, including March and April, are filling up quickly.

The summer season is turning out to be very busy with several films already finalizing their release dates in March and April.
 Sesh and his team should act quickly and announce the release date before it's too late. They should also start promoting the film to build excitement and stand out in the tough box office competition.

'Dacoit' is a bilingual film shot at the same time in both Hindi and Telugu.
 It is directed by Shaneil Deo and written by Sesh. The film features director Anurag Kashyap in a key role and Mrunal Thakur as the female lead.

Rashmika’s Most Daring Bold Role Yet in Upcoming Film?

The filming of Cocktail 2 has now officially wrapped up, and the movie is already getting a lot of attention for several reasons. The film is directed by Homi Adajania and stars Shahid Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Kriti Sanon in the main roles.

According to reports from Bollywood media, Rashmika and Kriti are believed to be playing a lesbian couple in the movie.
 Although the makers haven't officially confirmed this yet, the idea has created a lot of interest among fans and people in the industry.

If this is true, the story could represent a big and forward-thinking change in mainstream Hindi cinema, especially for Rashmika, who is taking on a role like this for the first time.


The first Cocktail was famous for its bold story, focusing on one man and his two close female friends, and it explored modern relationships and emotional issues.
 However, the second movie seems to be even bolder with its unusual theme.

This news has especially excited Rashmika's fans, as she hasn't taken on such a role before and is said to be getting ready for marriage soon.
 If the rumors are correct, Cocktail 2 might become one of the most discussed movies when it comes out. The exact release date hasn't been announced yet.

‘A’ Hurdle For Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic?

This year's summer will start off with a big event for Indian cinema as Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic will compete at the box office on March 19th.
 Trade experts are really excited about this big showdown.

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar 2 is hoping to take advantage of the huge success of the first movie.

 On the other hand, Toxic is riding on Yash's massive popularity after the huge success of KGF 2.

What's interesting is that both movies share a common point that might affect how well they do at the box office, depending on how audiences react once they are shown.

Dhurandhar had a lot of strong action and violent scenes, and the sequel is expected to have a similar amount of intense and bloody scenes because of the excitement and hype among moviegoers.


Now, the makers of Toxic have also given some clues through their latest teaser.
 The Yash starrer is expected to be a tough and raw story with explicit scenes and lots of bloody action sequences.

So, it's clear that both Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic will be given an A certificate without any doubt.
 Usually, movies with an A rating have a hard time attracting family audiences and this could be a problem even if they get good reviews and positive word of mouth.

It will be interesting to see if the decision to go with full-length, violent scripts works out and if both films can do well at the box office despite the A certificate.
