Will Tamil Audience Accept Telugu Director At Full Capacity With VAS?

Before Suriya's film Vishwanath And Sons releases on August 14 in Tamil and Telugu, people are wondering if Tamil audiences will really like a movie made by a Telugu director, Venky Atluri, on a big level.

Telugu audiences usually like films from other industries. If the story is good, they don't mind different languages or backgrounds.But Tamil Nadu is a bit different from Telugu states.

Tamil audiences are more careful when Tamil actors work with directors from other regions.

For example, Suriya’s 24 and Dhanush’s Vaathi (Sir in Telugu) and Kuberaa did okay in Tamil Nadu but didn’t do as well as in Telugu states.

So Vishwanath And Sons is a new test. Venky Atluri is a Telugu director, and Suriya is very popular in Tamil Nadu.The film is meant to be a family drama, which might help it get more people to watch it.

The main question is whether Tamil audiences will look at it as a Suriya film and judge it on its own, or if they will focus more on the fact that it's made by a Telugu director.

If the film gets good reviews, the language and director's background might not matter much.

But if the movie does not do well, it could again bring up the issue of how much Tamil audiences are open to supporting Tamil stars working with people from outside the Tamil film industry.

As the film starts this weekend, everyone is watching Tamil Nadu's box office numbers.

The real test is not just how well Vishwanath And Sons does in Tamil Nadu, but whether Tamil collections can really help the film do better and give it a big home market advantage.

 Anupama Parameswaran has shared details about her past relationship, making strong comments about the behavior she faced while dating a young Tamil actor.In a recent interview, she described the relationship as harmful and self-centered.

She didn't name the person directly but called her ex-partner narcissistic, comparing his attitude to the main character in the movie Anniyan (Aparichithudu), who has a split personality.

Anupama explained that some days he was loving and romantic, but other days he became aggressive.

She also mentioned that he would come back and apologize, which left her shocked.

She added that her partner and his family were even ready to talk about marriage just three months into the relationship.

The pressure to get married early, along with the emotional highs and lows, made the relationship harder for her.

Her comments have become very popular online, and the comparison to Anniyan has made the situation even more interesting.

So far, only Anupama has spoken about the relationship, but some people are hoping the other person will share their experience too.

Being from a respected family, it's important to know what that young hero has to say now.

Dil Raju Finds Respite in Long Running Copyright Case

 Acclaimed Tollywood producer Dil Raju has found some relief from the Supreme Court in a long-running copyright issue.The case started in 2017 when a writer named Shyamala Rani claimed that the story of Dil Raju's 2011 film Mr.Perfect, starring Prabhas, was copied from her novel called Naa Manasu Korindi Ninne.

Because of this claim, a lower court sent notices to Dil Raju under cheating and copyright laws.

He then took the case to higher courts to fight these notices and protect his reputation.The High Court removed the cheating charges but let the copyright part of the case continue.Not happy with that, Dil Raju went to the Supreme Court in early 2025.

The Supreme Court stopped the lower court proceedings while it looked into whether the original complaint was filed on time.

Recently, the complainant's lawyer asked the Supreme Court to end this pause, saying the writer is old.But a bench led by Chief Justice Surya Kant refused.The court said it had already looked at all the details and arguments before stopping the lower court case.

So, the pause on the case will stay for now, giving some relief to the senior producer.

Bhimavaram Doubles the Buzz Around Irumudi

Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja's film Irumudi has seen a big increase in popularity after the trailer got a good reaction and the successful Bhimavaram event.

The Bhimavaram event really raised the excitement level with a lively atmosphere and strong speeches from the film's makers and guests.

Ravi Teja talked about how his family is connected to Bhimavaram.

He shared some personal memories from the town and how he used to watch movies there.His speeches were warmly received by the local people.The crowd cheered and clapped a lot when he was speaking.A large number of people attended the event in Bhimavaram.

Producer Mythri Ravi also gave a positive review of Irumudi and shared some interesting information about Prabhas' upcoming movie Fauzi, which added more excitement to the audience.

The main highlight of the day was Raghurama Krishnam Raju announcing that Ravi Teja is his cousin.

This became a big topic of conversation at the event and surprised many in both the film and political industries.

With the trailer getting a good response and the Bhimavaram event going well, the excitement around Irumudi has definitely doubled.

The film, directed by Shiva Nirvana, who has worked on movies like Kushi, Majili, and Ninnu Kori, now has even more momentum as it approaches its release on August 21.

Prabhas’ Fauzi Gets a Strong Competitor at the Hindi Box Office

Prabhas has a big fan following in Hindi-speaking areas because of his movies like Baahubali, Saaho, Salaar, and Kalki 2898 AD.But some of his other films, like Raadhe Shyam and The Raja Saab, didn't do well at the box office.

Because of this, people are now looking at his upcoming films, Spirit and Fauzi.

Especially Fauzi, it doesn't seem to be getting much attention in the Hindi market.There are reports that Fauzi might face competition from Shraddha Kapoor's Eetha in the first week of December.So the team behind Fauzi needs to work on creating more buzz for the movie in the Hindi film world.

Even though Prabhas still has a large fan base in Hindi areas, The Raja Saab's poor performance at the box office has left a bad impression.

Because of this, the makers of Fauzi can't rely only on Prabhas's existing popularity.They need to build up interest in the film before it comes out.

On the other hand, Eetha has been getting positive responses from day one.

The film has created a lot of excitement among Hindi audiences, and Shraddha Kapoor's presence has helped increase the buzz.If there's a clash between Eetha and Fauzi, Fauzi might find it hard to compete in the Hindi market.

There's no doubt that Prabhas has the power to draw big crowds in North India.

However, the situation shows that the makers of Fauzi need to put in more effort into marketing, promoting, and making the film more visible to Hindi audiences.

A strong promotional campaign could help Fauzi rekindle its momentum and remind Hindi viewers why Prabhas is still one of the top South Indian stars.

The Hindi market could become a major competition ground, and Fauzi will need much more hype to stand a chance against the strong buzz around Eetha.

Mohanlal’s Daughter’s Debut Gets an Impressive Response

Malayalam cinema has a new hit with Thudakkam, the first film of Vismaya Mohanlal, daughter of superstar Mohanlal. Directed by Jude Anthany Joseph, a well-known filmmaker, the movie has started very well at the box office and is setting new records.

Thudakkam was released on August 7 and got a good reaction and high audience turnout in Kerala.

The latest update says the film made Rs 6.8 crore on its first day, which is more than Kalyani Priyadarshan’s Lokah, which made Rs 6.6 crore. So far, it has crossed Rs 20 crore in its opening weekend, which is a great achievement for a film led by a debutant, even though Mohanlal has a major role in it.

The film kept its strong performance over the weekend, showing excellent numbers and becoming one of the biggest successes in Malayalam movies that focus on women.

Even though Vismaya is a famous kid and has her father's support, the film's success is important because female-led movies have often struggled to match the opening numbers of films with male stars.

Thudakkam has attracted both family audiences and young viewers.

This success is also a big win for Asish Anthony, who played an important role in the film.

For Vismaya Mohanlal, this is a dream start. She plays the character Meenu, and her portrayal of a woman facing many challenges in society has become a topic of discussion. Everyone is waiting to see how her career develops from here.

Mega Fans Awaited Vishwambhara, But Chiru Revealed Kadiri

Megastar Chiranjeevi attended the success meet of Korean Kanakaraju, which was produced by UV Creations.During the event, there were discussions about his upcoming film with Bobby Kolli, but no one mentioned Vishwambhara, the long-delayed fantasy drama that is also produced by UV Creations.

Chiranjeevi spoke about his new film with Bobby Kolli and even shared its title, which is 'Kadiri'.

However, neither Chiranjeevi nor any UV Creations producer said anything about Vishwambhara.This has left fans confused, especially since there are reports that the film is planned for a Dasara release.

Vishwambhara, directed by Vassishta and starring Trisha as the female lead, is one of the most expensive films in Chiranjeevi's career.

It has been in production for more than two years and faced several delays, mainly because of the heavy VFX work involved.

The teaser for the film was released earlier, but it faced criticism for its visual effects.

As a result, the team had to completely redo the VFX.Since then, there have been no new updates, and the lack of information has made people more worried.Now that Chiranjeevi is not talking about the film, fans are even more curious and want some clear news.

The makers have not yet announced a release date, and the silence around the project is making people even more uncertain.

It might be time for Chiranjeevi and the team to give some updates on Vishwambhara and let fans know when it will be released.
