Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer Anek releases this Friday, and it is yet another content-driven film after The Kashmir Files to be arriving this year. Just like the Vivek Agnihotri-directed geo-political film that dealt with the Kashmir genocide, the Anubhav Singha directorial Anek picks up the geo-politics of the Northeast and is set in the current times. By the look and feel of the film, this one has a far bigger commercial set up with loads of action in there that should reach out to a larger population. The promo of the film is impressive and conveys the true content of what’s in the offering. Apart from action, one can expect a lot of drama and dialoguebaazi in there, something that was the core of Article 15 as well, another Anubhav Sinha and Ayushmann Khurranna starrer, which made a statement on the current state of underprivileged and casteism in the country. Back in time that film had seen an opening day number of Rs. 5.02 crores and then grown from strength to strength to cl...

Akshay Kumar-starrer historical drama Prithviraj was recently caught up in a controversy owing to its content. Just like the historical dramas in the past, this film too was facing issues over its release. However, just few days ago, reports had it that Karni Sena, who had expressed their concern over the film, gave a green signal after viewing it. However, they further demanded for a title change, asking filmmakers to add ‘ Samrat’ to the title. But now it has been decided by the production house, Yash Raj Studios themselves that the title will not be changed. A source close to this development said, “Yash Raj Films have decided that they will not be changing the title. There are hardly few days left for the release for the film. They do not want to change the title now. We can safely say that we have portrayed the king in all his glory and we have tried to retain as much history as we can.” In an earlier report, Surjeet Singh Rathore from Karni Sena had spoken to ETimes where he...

In his new Tamil rom-com  Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal  Vijay Sethupathi plays a man sandwiched between two women, played by Nayanthara and Samantha. However, there is a mention of a third woman at the end of the film. And she is none other than Katrina Kaif. Vijay, who is currently shooting with Katrina for Srirram Raghavan’s  Merry Christmas , actually took Katrina’s consent before using her name in   Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal . This seems like a refreshing change from other South Indian films where actresses are casually named in conversations. Vijay says that it is a pleasure to work with Katrina. “It’s lovely to work with her. She is professional and very committed to her part. Sriram has collected a terrific team for Merry Christmas, and I can’t wait to see how it finally shapes up.” "I can’t think of a more unlikely screen combination than this." Says the director Sriram Raghavan, always known to venture into forbidden territory is bringing Kai...

The immensely hyped actioner Dhaakad starring Kangana Ranaut was released last week. However, despite the promotions and of course the insane amount of action, the film has massively under performed at the box office. After collecting just Rs. 0.50 cr. on opening day, the business of the film continued to remain low over its opening weekend with just Rs. 1.55 cr. coming in. When compared to Kangana Ranaut’s previous releases Dhaakad ranks as her third lowest opening weekend grosser, managing to surpass the collections of her previous releases like Thalaivii, which collected Rs. 1.07 cr, and Miley Naa Miley Hum, which had collected Rs. 0.46 cr. If that wasn’t all, look at Kangana Ranaut’s release list in the recent past, with Dhaakad underperforming, the actress now has two back-to-back disasters at the box office in the form of Dhaakad and Thalaivi. In fact, Kangana Ranaut’s recent releases like Judgementall Hai Kya managed to collect Rs. 33.11 cr. during its run, while her other re...
