Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph to begin Drishyam 3 shoot in September 2025, Ram getting postponed once again?
Mohanlal and director Jeethu Joseph announced their reunion for the 3rd installment of the Drishyam franchise. While the production details had been unclear, it seems the superstar and director would start filming in September 2025.
As per a report by Cinema For You, the actor and director are likely to postpone the shoot of their much-delayed project, Ram, once again. With dates clearing up, the duo is likely to begin filming for Drishyam 3 instead.
While more details about the movie haven't been clear, an official confirmation of its production is yet to be made.
For those unaware, Drishyam was a 2013 crime thriller directed by Jeethu Joseph. The film tells the story of Georgekutty, a family man who lives with his wife and two children.
In a rather striking turn of events, the man, along with his family, comes under suspicion in Varun Prabhakar's missing case. The rest of the film focuses on how Georgekutty manages to evade the police and protect his family from all harm's way.
In 2021, the movie received a sequel titled Drishyam 2: The Resumption, with Mohanlal and the rest of the cast reprising their roles. The second installment received widespread praise after being directly released on Amazon Prime Video.
Over the years, both films have been remade into other languages, with the Bollywood remake having Ajay Devgn in the lead role.
Interestingly, the Bollywood superstar is also gearing up to hit the big screens with the 3rd installment of Drishyam franchise. In an exclusive report at Pinkvilla, we learned that the actor would be reuniting with director Abhishek Pathak for the sequel and would begin shooting by August 2025.
Coming to Mohanlal's work front, the superstar was last seen in a leading role in the Tharun Moorthy directorial Thudarum. The crime drama movie featured the tale of a father who exacts revenge upon the powerful men responsible for his son's death.
Moving ahead, the actor will next be seen in the feel-good venture Hridayapoorvam, directed by Sathyan Anthikad with Malavika Mohanan as the co-lead. Furthermore, he has films like Vrusshabha and MMMN in his lineup.

Aamir Khan To Release Sitaare Zameen Par In Over 3,000 Screens In India
Last Updated: As per the latest report, Aamir Khan is determined to keep the film exclusively for theatrical release. Aamir Khan's upcoming film Sitare Zameen Par, directed by RS Prasanna, has generated significant buzz among movie enthusiasts. The film delves into powerful themes of inclusion, empathy and resilience, told through the inspiring stories of children with special abilities. Determined to make the film a success, Aamir Khan is going all out with its release strategy. According to recent reports, the actor plans to launch the film across approximately 3,000 screens nationwide. According to a report by Pinkvilla, Aamir Khan and his distribution team initially planned to release Sitare Zameen Par on 1,000 to 1,500 screens across India, with the intention of expanding based on audience demand over the opening weekend. However, the strategy has since evolved into a full-scale nationwide release. As per sources cited by the portal, several single-screen theatre owners and non-national multiplex chains approached Aamir Khan, expressing interest in screening the film at their venues starting June 20. A source known to the entertainment portal said, 'Though the genre has its limitations in the post-pandemic, the exhibitors are confident that the Aamir Khan factor, coupled with strong content, will draw audiences in larger numbers over the weekend. The exhibitor support for Sitaare Zameen Par is also coming from the 'No OTT' stance taken by Aamir Khan. The film will now release on 3000 to 3500 screens all across the country." Moreover, with Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir is making a game-changing move by refusing to sell the OTT rights to any platform, despite repeated offers. According to sources, the actor is determined to keep the film exclusively for theatrical release. Initially developed in collaboration with Sony Pictures, the film eventually became a solo venture for Aamir after the studio expressed reservations about the big-screen-only strategy. In response, Aamir reportedly bought back full control of the project, ensuring complete creative and distribution authority. Sitaare Zameen Par is a sports comedy-drama starring Aamir Khan alongside Genelia Deshmukh. The film is described as a spiritual sequel to Khan's 2007 critically acclaimed Taare Zameen Par and is an official remake of the Spanish film Champions. The movie also marks the Hindi film debut of several newcomers, including Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.

'Mujhe laga ab toh maut...'; This actress made shocking revelation, was forced to work for 17 days straight without..., her name is...
This famous actress began her journey under the spotlight with television's most iconic family saga and gradually carved her space in the world of cinema. From emotionally charged scenes in daily soaps to holding her own alongside Bollywood legends in a grand period drama, this actress proved her versatility with grace. However, recently she has revealed something about her hectic work schedule that almost caused trouble in her life. Television Industry's Most Renowned Face… Here we are talking about actress Apara Mehta, best known for the television series Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. She additionally participated in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's movie Devdas. Hailing from Bhavnagar, Gujarat, Apara is her parents' sole offspring and is well-acquainted with the life of a performing artist. From a young age, she began studying classical music and Kathak. At 15 years old, she presented a children's TV show for Ahmedabad Doordarshan. Apara recently discussed her experience of working on both projects at the same time. Apara Discusses About Her Working Experience In a recent interview with Friday Talkies, Apara Mehta reminisced about shooting for 17 days straight without sleep for both Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Devdas at same time. She stated, 'During Diwali in the year 2000, I received a call on my landline. The voice on the other end responded, I am Sanjay Leela Bhansali. I was rendered speechless. I was preparing potato tikkis then. During that moment, I was unable to speak to him. After that, he invited me to meet him. I promptly went to his home. Upon arriving at his house, Leela's sister greeted me at the door and joyfully informed me in Gujarati that she had recommended your name.' Following multiple meetings, Apara learned that she would need to film for 12 days for the mujra song 'Kahe chhe chhe mohe' from Devdas. She mentioned, 'I believed I could change the shooting schedule for the show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, but that shoot was prolonged to 17 days.' She further said, 'Iske baad main 17 dinon tak bina ruke kaam kiya tha, jiske baad mujhe ehsaas hua ki aage sirf maut hi hai, aur mujhe hospitalized hona pad gaya tha.' Apara further mentioned that she often attended the filming of Devdas with bloodshot eyes from sleep deprivation. Yet it was an experience on its own. Seeing the Devdas set made me happy, which felt like paradise. More about Apara On the personal front, in 1980, she wed Indian television and film figure Darshan Jariwala, with whom she shares one daughter, Khushali Mehta. The two have parted ways by mutual agreement but are not formally divorced. Segments of their private life were featured in the reality program Maa Exchange, which was broadcast on Sony Entertainment Television.
