Jr. NTR and Prashanth Neel's Dragon To Be Released In Two Parts?

Hyderabad, November 6 - The buzz surrounding Jr. NTR's highly-awaited film with KGF and Salaar director Prashanth Neel continues to intensify. Tentatively titled Dragon, the high-octane pan-India action spectacle is now reportedly being developed as a two-part cinematic saga. According to multiple reports, it is said that the film's grand scale and extensive narrative have prompted the team to consider a dual release. The story of Dragon is said to be massive in scope, making it difficult to contain within a single film.

Superstar Yash Teams Up With Farhan Akhtar For 120 Bahadur

Mumbai, November 6 — Superstar Yash has joined hands with actor and filmmaker Farhan Akhtar for the trailer launch of the latter's upcoming war drama film 120 Bahadur. The film, based on the Indo-China War, is one of the most anticipated films and promises to deliver an emotionally charged and action-packed patriotic experience. Yash will launch the trailer on November 6 at 2:07 PM on his social media handles. The Kannada superstar's association with the trailer launch adds further star power to the event. The KGF actor, known for his massive pan-India appeal, will present the trailer digitally, generating nationwide attention ahead of the film's release. 120 Bahadur recounts the Battle of Rezang La, considered one of the major events of the Sino-Indian War and fought on 18 November 1962, when 120 soldiers of the Charlie Company, 13 Kumaon Regiment, entirely made up of Ahirs, defended their post against a 3000-strong Chinese Army contingent, inflicting on them over 1300 casualties. The timing of the trailer launch — 2:07 PM — is believed to hold symbolic significance tied to the title and the number 120, adding a sense of intrigue to the event. The recently launched teaser and songs hint at a grand-scale war epic filled with patriotism, grit, and high-octane action sequences. Directed by Razneesh Ghai and produced by Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios, 120 Bahadur stars Farhan Akhtar as Major Shaitan Singh and Raashii Khanna as Shaitan's wife, Shagun Kanwari Singh. The film portrays Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, who was posthumously conferred the Param Vir Chakra, which is India's highest military honour, for his bravery in the Battle of Rezang La.

Shehnaaz Gill's Ikk Kudi Struggles To Make An Impact At The Box Office

Mumbai, November 5 - Actress Shehnaaz Gill's romantic comedy drama Punjabi film Ikk Kudi was released on October 31 amid decent buzz, but the movie has failed to create the expected impact at the box office. Despite the decent initial word of mouth, the film's performance at the ticket counters has been poor. After opening to around 15 lakh gross on Day 1, Ikk Kudi could not maintain steady momentum through its first weekend. Over five days, the film has managed to collect approximately 1.25 crore gross in India, which is far below expectations for a film headlined and produced by Shehnaaz Gill. The film marked a significant step for Shehnaaz, not just as the lead actor but also as a producer, while Dharma Productions presented the project, lending it a touch of mainstream credibility. However, even with that backing and Shehnaaz's strong fan following, Ikk Kudi couldn't translate social media buzz into box-office numbers. The film lacked aggressive promotion and limited appeal beyond core Punjabi markets hindered its box office growth. Although the initial audience response was decent, the footfalls did not sustain after the opening day, suggesting that Ikk Kudi might wrap up its theatrical run on a disappointing note.

Supreme Court Warns Multiplexes Over Exorbitant Prices

New Delhi, November 4 - The Supreme Court of India has raised serious concerns over the exorbitant prices charged by multiplexes for food and beverages. Over the last many years, theatres have struggled to bring the audiences, and the unaffordable prices are one of the major reasons for it. On Monday, a bench of the apex court, comprising Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta, in an oral observation, said that exorbitant rates for tickets and food items at multiplexes could drive moviegoers away. They observed that the rates should be appropriately fixed so that people will come. According to Live Law, the apex court's observations came while hearing petitions by Multiplex Association of India against a recent Karnataka HC order to cap multiplex ticket prices at 200. The SC bench stayed the HC order, while issuing a notice on the petitions. Recently, the Karnataka Government passed an order that movie ticket prices in multiplexes shouldn't be more than Rs. 200. To challenge the order, the makers of Kantara Chapter 1 moved the high court, which stayed the order till further notice. The Karnataka HC had directed the multiplexes to keep auditable records of every ticket sold, both online and offline, so that refunds can be made if the multiplexes lose the case. The HC also ordered to maintain audit reports verified by a CA regularly, among other things. Stay tuned...
