Nagarjuna addresses changing trends in Tollywood and Bollywood: 'It can't be fantastic all the time'

Picture Credit: Facebook Veteran actor Nagarjuna who is gearing up for the release of the upcoming film 'Kuberaa', starring Dhanush in the lead, recently weighed in on the ongoing comparisons between Bollywood and the southern film industries. During an interview with Galatta Plus, Nagarjuna shared that he believes these trends are cyclical, and no industry remains at the top forever. When asked if Bollywood has lost it's spark in contrast to a booming southern film industry, the actor dismissed it saying, "These narratives keep changing." He explained that it's like an actor or director having a bad time of 4-5 years. He further explained, "Everything cumulative probably happened there, and films didn't work. And then they say the whole film industry is gone. In my time, in the Telugu film industry, it has happened four times. And I believe the fourth time will come now, very soon. I'm very sure, it's my hunch." Nagarjuna was also asked about filmmaker Naga Vamsi's recent prediction of a "bloodbath" in Tollywood due to changing audience tastes and underperforming films. The actor disagreed with it but also shared the need for timely reinvention. He about how films like mentioned that Tourist Family' in Tamil, 'Court' in Telugu, and 'Anaganaga' on OTT are working so well. He shared that audience's tastes are changing and as filmmakers, they have to keep that in mind. "They have to change fast. If we don't look at the future, things could be pretty bad. I feel that's what happened in Hindi. Now they'll change. It can't be fantastic all the time", he said. On the work front, he will be seen next in 'Kuberaa' joining Dhanush and Rashmika Mandanna in the lead. The movie will be released on June 20. He will be further seen in Rajinikanth's film 'Coolie' which also includes the brief appearance of stars like Aamir Khan, Upendra Rao and Pooja Hegde.

Bipasha Basu slams trolls fat-shaming her for weight gain after childbirth: ‘Memes do not define me'

Actor Bipasha Basu is not letting any meme, mocking her for her weight gain after childbirth, define her. She recently took a strong stance against trolls who were body-shaming her post-partum look, asserting that their hurtful comments don't define her identity or self-worth. Also read: Mika Singh feels Bipasha Basu is out of work because of her attitude: 'The drama she created on Dangerous ensured...' Instead, Bipasha pointed out that such behaviour reveals a disturbing aspect of society's mindset towards women. Bipasha took to Instagram to react to the online chatter around her weight gain after embracing motherhood. She expressed her thoughts in the comments section of a reel that criticised the unfair expectations and pressures women face after childbirth. The reel referenced an Instagram post featuring a collage of Bipasha's past and present photos, set to the lyrics of Night Changes, which seemed to emphasise the changes in her appearance over time. Shweta Vijay Nair, a former Miss India and beauty influencer, took to Instagram to speak out against the unrealistic expectations placed on women, particularly mothers. In her reel, she highlighted the emotional and physical toll of motherhood, emphasising how women are expected to juggle multiple roles while facing judgment for even the smallest imperfections in their appearance. A post shared by Shweta (@shwetavijaynair) Bipasha reacted to the whole issue in the comment section. 'Thank you for your clear words... Hope the human race does not remain so shallow and so low forever… and they encouarge and applaud women for the million roles they play each day,' she wrote in the comment section. Bipasha continued, 'I am a super confident woman with a very evolved loving partner and family. Memes and trolls do not define me ever… nor did they make me who i am. But these are deeply disturbing reflections of the society towards women . Another woman in my place could be deeply affected and scarred with the viciousness'. 'Anyways if we have more strong voices and atleast women understanding and applauding women for who they are then women will rise higher and higher :) We are unstoppable ladies,' she ended. Her husband and actor Karan Singh Grover wrote, 'We should be putting all the women we know and love on a pedestal and praying to them. They are the gods/goddesses we should pray to. In fact I believe that god/ source is a feminine energy. Nothing else could have created something as beautiful as life'. He also thanked her for 'being so awesome'. Bipasha and Karan welcomed their first child on November 12, 2022, six years after their marriage. Taking to Instagram, Bipasha had shared a post through which she announced the name of her daughter. The picture read, "12.11.2022. Devi Basu Singh Grover. The physical manifestation of our love and blessings of Ma is here now and she is divine'. Since then, the actor has focused on her daughter.

Bhool Chuk Maaf: Rajkummar Rao has become the poster boy for losers; he plays the same character over and over again

Nobody is above being typecast, not even Shah Rukh Khan. But while the Badshah of Bollywood has broken hearts and weakened knees with his culture-defining romance movies, Rajkummar Rao has become the patron saint of losers. Far too many times in the last decade, the once-promising star has played versions of the same person: a small town layabout whose overwhelming uselessness is inexplicably presented as innocent charm. The secret behind these characters' appeal is never revealed, nor does Rao play them as particularly irresistible. In fact, in most of these movies, not only are the protagonists indistinguishable from each other, they're positively repulsive. Even Rao would've struggled to bring freshness to his performance in Bhool Chuk Maaf, the latest in this long line of films. He plays a 25-year-old man named Ranjan in the supposedly 'high-concept' comedy. But his age is something we must live with; we can't get annoyed in the first five minutes of the movie, can we? There are bigger problems to shake our fists at. So, we move on, reminding ourselves that it would've been even weirder if Rao was playing his real age. Because although Ranjan is old enough to vote and get married, he hasn't ever bothered finding a job. This doesn't sit right with his girlfriend's dad, understandably so. All he wants is for Ranjan to find gainful employment before asking for his daughter's hand in marriage. Also read – Pokhar Ke Dunu Paar movie review: Poetic and profound, the best Hindi film of the year Left with no choice, Ranjan agrees. But instead of scouring through LinkedIn and giving an interview or two, he goes to a shady old man played by Sanjay Mishra, who claims to have connections in various government departments. For Rs 6 lakh, the old man promises Ranjan a government job within the two-month deadline that he has been given by his girlfriend's dad. Ranjan arranges for the money by selling his mother's jewellery against her knowledge. When his girlfriend — she's played by Wamiqa Gabbi, by the way — offers to lend him some of her dowry, he pretends to be outraged, but agrees three seconds later. This is the guy we're supposed to be rooting for. He doesn't have a single redeeming quality. But for some reason, it's characters like Ranjan that Rao gravitates towards these days. There's nothing wrong with playing terrible people on screen, but it can become monotonous for the audience when an actor — especially someone of Rao's talent — reduces themselves to a type. If Ranjan were to walk into one of his other movies, you wouldn't even notice. Barring a couple of films in which he played cops — Badhaai Do and Bheed — Rao's been stuck doing the same small town schtick. In Stree, he plays a loafer who falls in love with a ghost lady. In Chhalaang, he's barely able to secure work as a school PT teacher. In Shimla Mirchi, he stalks a woman in the hills because he has nothing else to do. In Roohi, he plays a kidnapper. Before you say anything, this isn't a real job. In Guns & Gulaabs, he runs some kind of cycle repair shop; in Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, he's a mehendi artist who's managed to get married to someone way out of his league; in Mr & Mrs Mahi, he's forced to sit behind the counter of his dad's sports store. In each of these projects, Rao's characters are barely-functional man-children. The only reason they find employment is because their love life relies on it. Mr & Mrs Mahi is probably the worst offender; not only is Rao's character in it severely immature, he's also rather rude to his angelic wife. He grooms her to give up on her dreams of becoming a doctor, all because he wants to live his fantasies vicariously through her. In a more sensible movie, she'd have knocked him over the head with his own hockey stick and walked out. Instead, Rao's character is projected as some sort of valorous hero; a champion of women who empowers his wife to become a cricketer. Bhool Chuk Maaf isn't as well-made as either Bheed or Badhaai Do, two movies that understood that people live inside prisons of society's making. Ranjan's frustration manifests in horrible behaviour that the movie never fully addresses. Sure, he has a change of heart at the end, when he realises that he shouldn't have stolen a job with someone else's name on it. But what about his other faults? How about we address the entitlement that folks like him and Ajju bhaiyya from Bawaal walk around with? It was funny the first time, when he played a person like this in Bareilly Ki Barfi all those years ago, but that's because his character in that film was genuinely endearing. Read more – Loveyapa: Junaid Khan plays the world's biggest red flag again, this time in Advait Chandan's outdated romantic comedy The unimaginative writing aside, Rao's work in these movies itself is an issue. There's a tendency to lean into the dialect, which often sounds interchangeable. There's also a tendency to have outbursts; there's a false sense of pride in these people, bordering on arrogance. Rao has a difficult time injecting them with vulnerabilities. These movies, including Bhool Chuk Maaf, leave no room for introspection and indecision. The men at their centre are empowered by the filmmakers to strut through life with a delusional overconfidence. Some movies, like Monica O My Darling, are smart enough to call their so-called hero out on their bashfulness. Others, like Srikanth, are too terrible to take seriously. But there is a difference between creating complex characters and two-dimensional oafs. In Bhool Chuk Maaf, when Ranjan is terrible, he's uniformly terrible. And when his redemption arc is complete, it's as if his entire personality has changed. Neither version is particularly realistic, because most humans exist somewhere in the middle of this spectrum. Rao has played such characters many times in the past, in movies such as Shahid and Aligarh, in Trapped and Newton. It's about time he returns to his roots, not for our sake, but his own.
