Megastar Chiranjeevi Prevents The Makers From Selling Distribution Rights of 'Godfather'?

Hyderabad, September 15 - After the debacle box office performance of Acharya, Megastar Chiranjeevi is gearing up for the release of his next, titled Godfather. The remake of the Malayalam movie "Lucifer", the upcoming film also stars Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and Nayanthara in key roles. ## According to the latest reports, "Godfather" will be released by the producers themselves as Chiranjeevi has reportedly prevented them to sell the distribution rights of the movie for both domestic and overseas markets. ## "Godfather" is produced by RB Choudary and NV Prasad while the presenter is Konidela Productions banner. According to greatandhra.com, Chiranjeevi has advised the producers not to sell the film at higher prices but only release it against advances. NV Prasad is believed to be very close to Chiranjeevi and he has his own distribution network. ## Megastar Chiranjeevi's last two films - "Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy" and "Acharya" didn't work out at the box office. While "Sye Raa" was still a decent box office outing, "Acharya" did cause huge losses to the distributors which might have forced Chiranjeevi to think differently for "Godfather" or he might have anticipated the movie to become a sure-shot hit. ## "Godfather" is a political action film directed by Mohan Raja. It also stars Satyadev Kancharana, Puri Jagannadh, Murali Sharma, Samuthirakani, and Tanya Ravichandran among others in key roles. The movie is scheduled to release on 5 October 2022, coinciding with the festival of Vijayadashami, in Telugu and Hindi. ## Stay tuned...

Diljit Dosanjh Opens Up On The 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots

Mumbai, September 14 - Punjabi and Bollywood actor, Diljit Dosanjh is gearing up for the release of director Ali Abbas Zafar's Jogi, which is set against the background of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots that happened across the country following the assassination of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards on October 31, 1984.## While promoting the film, Dosanjh spoke about India's one of the darkest chapters of history and said that it shouldn't be called a riot and should be termed genocide. In an interview with PTI, while talking about his upcoming film "Jogi", Diljit Dosanjh shared how he feels about the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. ## He said, "We should not call it riots, the right word is genocide. When there is a two-sided fight between people, then it is a riot. According to me, it should be called genocide. It is not that it happened to one or a few people. I know it happened collectively, with all of us".## "If I talk about some incidents, it will be personal. We are talking about it collectively in the film. I have been hearing about it since I was born and we are still living with it. We all have heard a lot of stories and we couldn't believe something like this can happen in life. But, anything can happen", he added.## The "Good Newwz" actor further said that even though cinema is all about entertainment, films like "Jogi" based on true facts should also be made which has been part of the dark history of India. "This is not a new story. This film (Jogi) is also talking about the same things that we have grown up listening to. Whatever has happened is there for everyone to see", he added.## "Jogi" is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on September 16. It is billed as a thrilling and emotional journey of the fighting spirit of three friends, played by Diljit, Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub, and Hiten Tejwani.## Stay tuned...

Ayan Mukerji Reveals Basic Storyline And Sets Release Plans of 'Brahmastra Part 2: Dev'

Mumbai, September 14 - It took nearly a decade for director Ayan Mukerji to bring the first part of the planned Brahmastra trilogy to the big screen, but the second part, titled Brahmastra Part Two: Dev will be back on the big screen, faster with more love and light. ## There have already been several fan theories going on regarding the sequel after the first part left enough for the fans to keep guessing. It was released in cinemas on September 9 and smashed box office records, setting the stage perfectly for part 2 "Dev". ## Director Ayan Mukerji, in an interview with Indian Express, revealed that he has already written the script for the remaining two parts, which were completely dependent on the acceptance of part one "Shiva". Despite the mixed reviews, the movie found acceptance among the audiences which paved the way for the next film in the trilogy. ## There has not been set a release date timeline for "Brahmastra 2", but the director has planned to bring it in nearly 3 years in 2025. Ayan revealed that Part 2 will chronicle Dev's backstory as well as continue the present-day timeline. It is not yet known who will play Dev's role but rumors suggest it could be either Hrithik Roshan, Ranveer Singh, or Ranbir Kapoor. ## "I can answer very few things about Dev. The idea was to create a very clear indication of where we are going next with the storytelling. Now we are really getting into the story of our antagonist. Decoding it, giving you some hook to hang on to for part two. Dev is the fulcrum of the entire Brahmastra trilogy", Ayan said. ## According to the filmmaker, Brahmastra 2 will switch between the past and the present and showcase how Dev impacts the universe. ## "The problems that this community and the world will face because of Brahmastra, what is the real stress with it? All of this will actually unfold in Dev's story. His story is meant to take us back into his past but also he has returned to the present. So, the idea is, we will be continuing the present story, but also telling you the story of the past", he added.## Stay tuned...

"There was a core five years where I was extremely overworked, not my happiest, and I felt like I was saying yes to everything because I felt really grateful to be in the position I was in".## Jenner ultimately decided to make her well-being her number one priority. She admits that her new approach has transformed her life. "I just wasn't happy anymore so I had to set those boundaries for myself.

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's 'Karna' To Be Made In Two-Parts

Mumbai, September 14 - Last year, it was reported that filmmaker Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has been working on a mythological epic based on Mahabharat's key character Karna. The director reportedly had approached Shahid Kapoor to play this iconic role, however, things seem to have changed since then. ## According to Peepingmoon.com, Shahid Kapoor has backed out from this magnum opus, and now, the makers are looking for new actors to play Karna. It is also revealed that the movie will be split into two parts and Mehra is writing this film along with veteran author Anand Neelakantan accordingly. ## "The subject and characters are so vast and complicated that he (Rakeysh Mehra) believes one film can not justify Karna's story. Baahubali, KGF, and Pushpa's success have further boosted the maker's confidence to experiment with a multi-part format", read the report. ## Meanwhile, this mega project will now reportedly be produced by Farhan Akhtar under his banner Excel Entertainment. It was earlier supposed to be produced by Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP Movies. "The makers are contemplating a big star to headline this project, and while they have pitched the film to 2-3 Bollywood stars, no one has come on board as yet". ## "Karna" is touted to be the ambitious project of Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, which will be a big-screen spectacle to be made on a 200-crore budget. It will be told from the point of view of the spiritual son of Surya and a loyal friend of Duryodhana. The first part of this epic is expected to go on floors by mid-2023. ## Stay tuned...
