Telugu Producers Council Asks Producer Dil Raju To Not Prioritise Tamil Movie In Telugu States

Hyderabad, November 13 - Thalapathy Vijay's family action drama film Varisu/Vaarasudu is unlikely to get a big release in Telugu states despite the film being directed by senior and one of the biggest Telugu producers Dil Raju. ## "Varisu" is a Tamil movie that will also release in Telugu as "Vaarasudu". It is directed by Telugu director Vamshi Paidipally. Producer Dil Raju holds a huge command over the theatrical exhibition of the films and it was one of the reasons that he was able to book more theaters than the direct Telugu movies for "Varisu" in Telugu states.## Now, Telugu Producers Council has taken note of the aforementioned situation and has asked Dil Raju to not prioritize dubbed movies over direct Telugu films. The council fears that sidelining Telugu films for dubbed versions would be harmful to its own film, hence, it has decided that during festivals, Telugu films should be given priority. ## Only Telugu straight films should be given preference during Sankranthi & Dussehra - #TFPC #Tollywood pic.twitter.com/1v6HsgviQK— Aakashavaani (@TheAakashavaani) November 13, 2022 ## "Varisu" is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023. It will clash with megastar Chiranjeevi's "Waltair Veerayya" and Nandamuri Balakrishna's "Veera Simha Reddy" at the Telugu box office.## Stay tuned...

'Everything Everywhere All at Once' Director Heaps Praise On SS Rajamouli's 'RRR'

Hyderabad, October 18 - SS Rajamouli's cinematic masterpiece RRR has a new fan in the form of director Daniel Kwan. The Jr. NTR and Ram Charan-fronted period action drama film is the most loved Indian movie internationally, especially in the United States where the general audience and filmmakers are literally going gaga over the movie. ## Daniel Kwan, who wrote and directed the critically acclaimed absurdist comedy-drama Everything Everywhere All at Once lauded the Indian blockbuster. "After a busy year of work and travelling I’ve finally checked a couple things off my list 1) finished my taxes (I know the irony) and 2) watched RRR. HOLY COW ya'll weren't kidding. Anytime I watch an Indian action film I feel like I'm working in the wrong country", Kwan tweeted.## "What really struck me is, while a lot of the blockbusters we're making in the states tend to have self-aware, cheeky characters trapped in self-serious filmmaking, RRR was all heart-on-its-sleeve sincerity wrapped up in the most ridiculous over-the-top execution. So much to love", the filmmaker added.## What really struck me is, while a lot of the blockbusters we’re making in the states tend to have self aware, cheeky characters trapped in self-serious filmmaking, RRR was all heart-on-its-sleeve sincerity wrapped up in the most ridiculous over the top execution.
