Last Updated:
Allu Arjun has reportedly been ousted from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's next; Avika Gor returns as herself in the reality show Pati Patni Aur Panga after engagement.
Allu Arjun has reportedly been ousted from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's next film. If a recent report by Siasat.com is to be believed, the Telugu superstar had signed a movie with the Animal director last year. However, insiders now claim that the film has been put on hold and Allu Arjun has been removed from it.
Television star Avika Gor, who just got engaged to Milind Chandwani, is ready to make a special return to the small screen, but this time, she's not stepping into a fictional role. The actor, known for her breakout performance as Anandi in Balika Vadhu, is set to appear as herself in a new reality series titled Pati Patni Aur Panga. Joining her on this new journey is her fiancé, Milind.
Akhil Akkineni, the younger son of superstar Nagarjuna, tied the knot with Zainab Ravdjee in a private wedding ceremony at the family's Hyderabad residence on June 6. The intimate event was followed by a lavish reception hosted at the iconic Annapurna Studios, where the Akkinenis welcomed industry friends and extended family to bless the couple.
In the aftermath of the devastating Air India crash that occurred earlier today in Ahmedabad, former commercial pilot and popular YouTuber Gaurav Taneja — better known as Flying Beast — has weighed in with a sobering perspective. Taneja, who often shares aviation insights with his millions of followers, took to X (formerly Twitter) shortly after news of the tragedy broke, suggesting that a catastrophic technical malfunction may have been the cause.
A wave of shock and sorrow swept through the nation following the tragic crash of Air India Flight AI 171 near Ahmedabad on Thursday morning. The flight, which was bound for London, crashed shortly after take-off from Ahmedabad airport, with 242 passengers and crew members on board. The mishap occurred in the Meghaninagar area, and the aircraft caught fire on impact.

Rana Daggubati opens up about struggling with action scenes after eye surgery: ‘I even joke with people that I'm almost like the Terminator'
Actor Rana Daggubati, whose series Rana Naidu Season 2 premiered today, recently spoke about undergoing a corneal transplant and the difficulties he has faced during action scenes since the procedure. Addressing the challenges of filming with a transplanted cornea, Rana told Bollywood Bubble, 'I mean, my eye over the years has kind of become a joke, because I can't see from one side. And during action scenes, it gets really funny if I don't have my lenses on, there's too much dust, and it gets pretty messy. But yeah, I've lived through all of that now. I even joke with people that I'm almost like the Terminator, I've got an eye, a kidney, and a bunch of other things that are transplants. So, if you've seen the Terminator, yes, I'm almost there, guys!' Also Read | Rana Daggubati on having partial vision, undergoing corneal transplant: 'I can't see from my right eye, so I operate differently' Rana Daggubati has partial blindness in his right eye and underwent a corneal transplant. The actor has previously discussed the physical and psychological toll of the condition, including emotional challenges that persisted after the surgery. He also revealed that his left eye is a transplant received from a donor. It was in 2016 when Rana first revealed his blindness in the right eye. On the Telugu chat show Memu Saitham, after hearing a young boy share his emotional story, Rana told him: 'Should I tell you one thing? I am blind in my right eye. I see only from my left eye. The one you see is someone else's eye, which was donated to me after his death. If I close my left eye, I can see no one. LV Prasad operated on me when I was young. Study well, we will support you. Be courageous, as you have to look after your family. Sorrows will go away one day, but you have to gear up and keep your family happy always.' Rana will be seen next in the film Rakshasa Raja, which is said to be a period action drama set in the 1930s during the British colonial era. Offering a larger-than-life adventure, the upcoming film is expected to portray the story of a fictional village, incorporating influences of Portuguese and French cultures into the storyline.

From Dear Uma and Aa Okkati Adakku to Subham and Rana Naidu Season 2: Latest Telugu OTT releases on Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar
Do not miss out on these exciting releases this week. (Pic courtesy- IMDB) June brings a diverse lineup of Telugu films and series to the OTT space, with genres ranging from fantasy and horror to crime, romance, and satire. Whether you're in the mood for a supernatural laugh, a heart-racing mystery, or a poignant drama, there's something new to stream across JioHotstar, Prime Video, Netflix, SunNXT, ETV Win and ZEE5. Here's a look at the latest releases you won't want to miss this week: Streaming on: JioHotstar Blending horror with laughter, Subham is a uniquely entertaining ride that redefines the classic ghost story trope. Directed by Praveen Kandregula and produced by Samantha under her banner Tralala Moving Pictures along with Kanakavalli Talkies, this film introduces audiences to a town possessed—not by evil spirits, but by a deep obsession with a Telugu soap opera. The plot revolves around three friends who run the only cable TV service in their town and face an absurd crisis when ancestral spirits begin possessing the local women just so they can watch their favourite serial. The clever twist? The only way to break the curse is to change the ending of the show. With performances by Harshith Reddy, Gavireddy Srinivas, Charan Peri, and others, Subham delivers both absurdity and social satire in a spooky, entertaining format. Streaming on: SunNXT Dear Uma tackles a bold and controversial topic—the medical mafia—in a story that blends emotional grit with an investigative tone. Directed by Sai Rajesh Mahadev, the film is anchored by a commanding performance from Sumaya Reddy, who holds the narrative together with depth and conviction. It also features Kamal Kamaraju, Sapthagiri, and Ajay Ghosh in pivotal roles. Though the film didn't fare well in theatres due to its lesser-known cast, the team is optimistic that the film will find its audience on OTT. Prithvi Raj Amber, who plays the male lead, believes the film's subject matter will spark much-needed conversations. With music by Radhan and a grounded script, Dear Uma could be a slow-burner success online. Streaming on: ETV Win Allari Naresh returns to his comedic roots in Aa Okkati Adakku, a romantic comedy driven by a ticking-clock prophecy and plenty of laughs. Directed by Malli Ankam, the story follows Gana, a man desperate to get married after a priest foretells that he has only 25 days to find a bride—or remain single for life. The prophecy becomes a source of comic paranoia as his family and society pressure him into a frantic search. Enter Siddhi, played by Faria Abdullah, who initially rejects him but slowly warms up, leading to a feel-good romance filled with misunderstandings and emotional depth. The supporting cast includes Vennela Kishore, Harsha Chemudu, Jamie Lever, and Ravi Krishna, all of whom bring fresh energy and humour. The film is both funny and endearing, making it a solid OTT pick for fans of light-hearted dramas. ETV Win Releasing: June 15 Part of ETV Win's Kathasudha series, Premante Idhi Kadha is a short film with a big emotional core. Though only 30–40 minutes long, it promises to pack a punch with its direct-to-OTT debut. Set for release on Sunday, June 15, it continues the trend of short-form storytelling that explores varied themes and human emotions. This anthology series has been receiving praise for its simplicity, warmth, and the ability to connect deeply in a short runtime. While details of the cast remain under wraps, the storytelling format itself has become a viewer favourite, and this episode is expected to follow suit. Streaming on: SunNXT A romantic thriller with a twist, Jigel introduces viewers to the quirky world of Nandu, a self-styled 'locker technician' with a talent for cracking open anything locked. Played by Thrigun, Nandu's aspirations for wealth are derailed when he begins having vivid dreams about a mysterious woman. When he finally meets Meena, played by Megha Chowdhury—a petty thief in real life—the two forge a bond that goes beyond attraction. Together, they take on the challenge of unlocking an ancient mystery hidden in a rich man's home. While the screenplay received praise for its freshness, the film had a lukewarm response in theatres. However, its digital release could attract genre fans interested in a mix of romance, suspense, and action. The film also stars Sayaji Shinde, Mukku Avinash, and Raghu Babu in supporting roles. Streaming on: Netflix The explosive father-son drama Rana Naidu is back with Season 2—and it's more intense than ever. Starring real-life uncle-nephew duo Rana Daggubati and Venkatesh Daggubati, the show dives deeper into the murky underbelly of celebrity scandals and power games. The second season spans eight episodes and continues the story of Rana, the fixer to the rich and powerful, and Naga Naidu, his morally complex father. The drama unfolds with more betrayals, moral dilemmas, and violent reckonings, offering a gripping binge-watch across six languages. Directed by Karan Anshuman and Suparn S Varma, Rana Naidu stands out for its gritty storytelling and character depth, elevating Telugu web content to international standards.
