Vijay Deverakonda's Kingdom Faces Protests For Hurting Tamil Sentiments
Last Updated: The Telugu film Kingdom, starring Vijay Deverakonda, faces protests in Tamil Nadu for allegedly misrepresenting Tamil identity and hurting religious sentiments. The release of the Telugu film Kingdom, starring Vijay Deverakonda, has triggered widespread protests in Tamil Nadu, with several groups accusing the film of misrepresenting Tamil identity and hurting religious sentiments. The film, directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, premiered globally on July 31 but has since become the focus of a growing controversy. Criticism has largely stemmed from Tamil nationalist group Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK), which has taken strong exception to certain elements in the film. Members of the group claim Kingdom portrays Sri Lankan Tamils in a negative light. Further anger was directed at the film's decision to name its antagonist 'Murugan', a name associated with one of Tamil Nadu's most revered deities, Lord Murugan. NTK condemned these creative choices, calling them deliberate and insensitive. According to the group, the film maligns both the identity and cultural history of Tamils. In response, protests were staged outside multiple theatres across the state, with party members demanding that Kingdom be banned from screening in Tamil Nadu. One of the more serious incidents occurred in Ramanathapuram, where NTK supporters gathered outside a cinema hall to obstruct the film's screening. Protesters raised slogans and called for an immediate stop to the show. The situation escalated when police intervened to disperse the crowd, leading to a confrontation between law enforcement and demonstrators. A minor scuffle reportedly broke out during the standoff, prompting the deployment of additional forces to restore order. While no injuries have been reported, security remains heightened in the area to prevent further disturbances. The film features Vijay Deverakonda in the lead, alongside Bhagyashree and Satyadev in key roles. Despite its star cast and scale, the film's reception in Tamil Nadu has been clouded by the controversy surrounding its content. NTK has renewed calls for government intervention, pressing the Tamil Nadu administration to impose a ban on the film, which it claims spreads anti-Tamil narratives and disregards deeply held cultural beliefs. As tensions persist, political observers warn that the controversy may intensify if no response is issued by the filmmakers or the censor board. Talking about the box office collections, according to the latest figures from Sacnilk, Kingdom earned just Rs 2.25 crore on Day 5, its lowest so far. The film had kicked off with a strong opening of Rs 18 crore on Thursday, but the weekend didn't see any big jump. It collected Rs 7.5 crore on Saturday and Rs 8 crore on Sunday. With Monday and Tuesday showing a clear dip, Kingdom's total box office collection now stands at Rs 43.15 crore. At the heart of Kingdom is Vijay Deverakonda's Suri, a simple police constable with a very personal mission. He goes undercover in Sri Lanka to take down a dangerous drug cartel, hoping it'll somehow lead him to his long-lost brother, Siva (played by Satyadev). But things get messier than he imagined. He soon crosses paths with the menacing cartel kingpin Murugan (Venkitesh), and what follows is a high-stakes game of deception, danger, and emotional turmoil. Helping him navigate this chaos is Dr Madhu (Bhagyashri Borse), who is also working undercover. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 19: Ahaan Panday's film becomes second Indian film of 2025 to cross ₹500 cr mark
Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 19: Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's debut film Saiyaara remains unstoppable at the box office even after 19 days since its release. The film is helmed by YRF and directed by Mohit Suri. Saiyaara has now touched yet another milestone, arguably the biggest so far, crossing ₹ 500 crore worldwide, claimed the film team. YRF shared that Saiyaara has grossed ₹ 507 crore at the global box office in 18 days. Sharing the news on their Instagram, the production house's official post read, '#Saiyaara found a home in your hearts - and we couldn't be more thankful.' Reacting to the news, YRF's CEO, Akshaye Widhani, who backed the film, said in a statement, 'As a company, we share this historic success with the captain of the ship, Mohit Suri who has given this generation a defining love story they can call their own, the incredible debutants Ahaan & Aneet who made the world feel love on screen through their brilliant acting, Aditya Chopra for his unwavering guidance, the entire cast and crew of Saiyaara and everyone at YRF for their invaluable contribution towards making this film into a global phenomenon.' He added, 'The success of Saiyaara, a pure love story, once again proves that the romance genre is probably the one to get most love from audience if we give them the right film to cherish and endorse. We are humbled with this success story and it fuels us to look for the next film that can break-out and make India proud globally.' Akshaye also said, 'It's deeply encouraging to see young audiences lead the way in embracing this film, disproving doubts about their theatrical participation. Thank you to every viewer, everywhere, for making Saiyaara the defining love story of our time.' With this, Saiyaara becomes the second Indian film of 2025 to cross the ₹ 500 crore mark worldwide. So far, only Vicky Kaushal's blockbuster Chhaava has achieved this feat. Chhaava minted ₹ 807.91 crore worldwide as its lifetime earnings. Saiyaara recently crossed the ₹ 300 crore mark in India on day 18. However, industry tracker Sacnilk is yet to confirm Saiyaara's ₹ 500 crore achievement at the international box office. According to their website, on day 18, Saiyaara's Worldwide Collection stood at ₹ 492.50 crore. Its Overseas Collection was ₹ 130 crore on the same day. Saiyaara is a romance-drama, focused on the story of Krish Kapur (played by Ahaan Panday), an egotistical, short-tempered musician who is in search of a big break. He meets Vaani (played by Aneet Padda), a shy, aspiring journalist recovering from heartbreak. As they cross paths, love follows, but fate takes them apart, setting them on a journey filled with love, loss and heartbreak.
