Nani, who is now gearing up for the release of 'HIT 3' on May 1, is fully committed to wrapping up 'The Paradise' with director Srikanth Odela. Nani remarked that The Paradise is shaping up to exceed expectations and that he will likely begin Sujeeth's project only after its completion.

Srinidhi Shetty
, Adil Pala, Rao Ramesh, Brahmaji, and Maganti Srinath in key roles.

Viral video shows Aaron Rodgers high on ayahuasca in Brazil and fans are losing it

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers seen in ayahuasca ceremony in Brazil, video goes viral. Just when Steelers fans were warming up to the idea of Aaron Rodgers wearing black and gold, the universe reminded us: this man is unhinged in the most Aaron Rodgers way possible. A resurfaced video showing Rodgers high on ayahuasca during a spiritual retreat in Brazil has gone viral and the internet has no chill. Some fans are in awe, some are concerned, and others? Well, they're just wondering what the locker room is going to think. The viral clip shows Aaron Rodgers mid-ceremony, deep into an ayahuasca experience in Brazil The now-viral footage shows Rodgers in what looks like a traditional ayahuasca ceremony somewhere in Brazil. The dim lighting, rhythmic chanting, and his spaced-out expression make it very clear: this man is deep into the trip. Turns out, it's part of his upcoming Netflix docuseries called Aaron Rodgers: Enigma and the video is from one of the ceremonies that shaped his "personal awakening." Rodgers has long been open about his use of ayahuasca, a powerful hallucinogenic plant brew traditionally used in South American spiritual rituals. It's not illegal there, but the optics? Very intense. Especially when you're the new QB for one of the most traditional franchises in the NFL. Aaron Rodgers says ayahuasca changed his life and his game If you're thinking this is a one-off weird moment, think again. Rodgers has talked openly for years about how ayahuasca helped him mentally, spiritually, and yes, even professionally. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brits Are Replacing Costly AC's With This Tiny Cooler AiraBreeze Learn More Undo He once credited it with helping him become 'a better teammate' and said it gave him the mental clarity to chase another MVP season. While most quarterbacks stick to weightlifting and tape review, Rodgers was out in the jungle sipping plant medicine with a shaman. And if you think he regrets it? Not even close. He's doubled down in interviews, saying the experience helped him find self-love and purpose. Fans are reacting exactly how you'd expect: wild takes, memes, and chaos Steelers fans were already split on signing the 40-year-old QB, and now... yeah, things are even messier. There's also a ton of confusion about how this footage got released just days after the Steelers officially announced his deal. Coincidence? Rodgers probably doesn't believe in those either. This video didn't surface by accident. It's in his docuseries. He's not hiding it. In fact, he's practically celebrating it. Now the question is: can the ayahuasca QB deliver a playoff run for Pittsburgh? Or are fans in for a whole new kind of trip?

Piracy strikes again: TFCC lodges piracy plaint over leaks of 2 new films

Hyderabad: In a fresh blow to the Telugu film industry, two newly released films—HIT: The Third Case and #Single— fell victim to piracy within hours of their theatrical debut, prompting the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce (TFCC) to escalate the matter to Hyderabad cyber crimes police. The TFCC, through its anti-video piracy cell, alleged that high-definition pirated versions of the films were uploaded on notorious torrent sites, raising serious concerns about security lapses in the digital cinema distribution chain. The TFCC lodged a formal complaint with the cyber crimes police station in this regard. The complaint was filed by Yarra Manindra Babu, project head of TFCC's anti-video piracy cell. It details how pirated versions of both films appeared on various websites within hours of their theatrical release. HIT: The Third Case, starring Nani and directed by Sailesh Kolanu, was released on May 1, while #Single, featuring Sri Vishnu and directed by Caarthick Raju, hit theatres on May 9. An HD pirated copy of HIT: The Third Case surfaced online on the night of May 1 on platforms such as and Preliminary investigations suggest the leak may have originated from UFO Digital Cinema or one of its affiliated theatre chains. The producers had embedded advanced forensic watermarking in all digital cinema package copies to trace such leaks. Similarly, a camcorded version of #Single was found online shortly after its release, appearing on and However, the exact source of this leak remains undetermined. The TFCC emphasised the severe economic impact of piracy on the Telugu film industry, citing estimated losses of ₹3,700 crore in 2024. "Piracy not only undermines producers' investments but also endangers the livelihoods of thousands of families working in the industry," said Manindra Babu. The police registered a case under various provisions, including sections 66C and 66E of the IT Act, section 318(4) read with 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and sections 63 and 65 of the Copyright Act. A cyber crimes official confirmed that the TFCC has provided specific URLs hosting the pirated content and has urged prompt action to identify and prosecute the culprits. The organisation has also called for an inquiry into the possible role of digital service providers and theatre chains in the leaks. Both films are now available on OTT platforms.
