Abhishek Banerjee, Rana Daggubati react to row over Kamal Haasan's Kannada comment: ‘Same about Marathi-Bihari…'
Actor Kamal Haasan finds himself in the midst of a language row ahead of the release of his film Thug Life. The Mani Ratnam-directed film has been barred from release in Karnataka, with Kamal doubling down and not apologising for a statement he made on Kannada being born out of Tamil. Recently, the Karnataka HC slammed his statement and called him out for not apologising. In an interview with India Today, Rana Daggubati and Abhishek Banerjee, however, said this when asked about it. (Also Read: 'I thank the people of Tamil Nadu for supporting me': Kamal Haasan in 1st press meet after Kannada language row) When asked to comment on Kamal's language row, Rana questioned why actors are being looked up to for the way society lives instead of scholars or politicians. He said, 'Now, social media has become a place to make an opinion. Earlier, you didn't have that. Anything gets touchy and political quite quickly. If the media and the news, and people become smarter (and understand) that actors are not the ones to advocate for the way society lives - it will be a better place. I think you should look at scholars, politicians and learned men and women to lead a way into society.' His Rana Naidu co-star Abhishek also agreed with Rana and compared it to the Marathi-Bihari conflict in Maharashtra and said, 'When I came to Bombay many years back, I heard the same thing about the Marathi-Bihari and Kannada-Tamil conflict, which has been going on. I feel it's completely worthless and useless. People who don't have anything better to do, will just try and get attention while doing this.' He also stated that language is great when used to educate people and cultivate culture, rather than to cause divide. Thug Life will be released across the country on 5 June except for Karnataka. It remains to be seen if the move will affect its box office collections.

Metro in Dino trailer explores modern love across generations — From Gen Z to elderly romance, here what Anurag Basu wants to showcase
Anurag Basu's upcoming film Metro in Dino has stirred conversation with its trailer, not just for its ensemble cast and soulful music but for its sensitive portrayal of love in different stages of Life. Lauded as a spiritual successor to Life in a Metro (2007), the film reflects how relationship dynamics have evolved—from Gen Z's complex dating lives to millennial dilemmas and even elderly love stories that still seek connection and companionship. Love in the times of modern India: A generational breakdown The trailer gives a glimpse into six stories—each representing a unique kind of relationship set in the hustle and isolation of city life. Gen Z romance: digital-age complications In Metro in Dino, Sara Ali Khan and Aditya Roy Kapur portray a young couple navigating the complexities of modern relationships. Their story reflects how younger generations often wrestle with commitment, identity, and the impact of social media on emotional bonding. Quick love, faster heartbreak, and self-discovery define their arc. In a candid moment from the trailer, Sara's character confronts Aditya, saying, "You're a commitment-phobic man-child," highlighting the emotional challenges faced by Gen Z in the realm of love. Millennials: Career Vs. connection Fatima Sana Shaikh and Ali Fazal bring forward the complexities faced by urban millennials—balancing career, emotional baggage, and long-term compatibility. Their narrative hints at a generation that is constantly trying to "fix" relationships while chasing stability. Elderly love: a second chance Veteran actors Pankaj Tripathi and Neena Gupta portray a tender, late-life connection. Their story is heartwarming and nostalgic, touching upon the loneliness that often follows retirement or personal loss and how love can bloom even after decades. Actors like Anupam Kher and Konkona Sen Sharma also feature in similar emotionally rich arcs that highlight love beyond youth. A callback to Life in a Metro The style, tone, and interlinked storytelling of Metro in Dino instantly remind viewers of Basu's Life in a Metro, which explored urban loneliness and complicated relationships in a rapidly growing city. While that film reflected the early 2000s mindset, Metro in Dino updates the narrative to reflect today's social shifts: Anurag Basu's storytelling remains emotionally grounded, but now it also mirrors how love has become more individualistic, nuanced, and sometimes fragile. Why this film matters now? In a world of fast swipes and fleeting connections, Metro… in Dino seems to ask a fundamental question: Do we still believe in lasting love? By showing various types of love—messy, slow, intense, and rediscovered—the film becomes a mirror for our times. It's not just about falling in love anymore. It's about healing, understanding, and growing through it—all across generations.

Kannappa actor Vishnu Manchu: Hindi films are rooted too, not just South cinema
Amid the ongoing debate around rooted storytelling in Indian cinema, actor-producer Vishnu Manchu has offered a balanced take, arguing that while South Indian industries deserve praise, Hindi cinema's contributions shouldn't be an exclusive conversation with India Today, the 'Kannappa' star said, 'You know, it's very funny when people talk only about the four South industries being rooted. Malayalam has always been rooted — they've been far ahead in storytelling. Tamil cinema too has very native, rooted subjects. Telugu and Kannada industries have that as well, but they tend to be more glamorous in their presentation.'advertisementHe acknowledged the recent buzz around South Indian films, especially in terms of storytelling authenticity, but warned against reducing the impact of Hindi films that have done equally well in that space. Manchu said, 'People forget that even Hindi cinema has delivered some deeply rooted films that have done phenomenally well. One of the films is 'Stree 2', and then 'Chhaava', which have done phenomenally well. And if you look back, 'PK', 'Dangal', 'Munnabhai MBBS' — those are incredible films, and they're as rooted as they come,' he also criticised the tendency to repeatedly highlight Bollywood's failures while ignoring its success stories. 'I think the Hindi media has been a little too harsh on its own industry. It's not performing as badly as people claim. Yes, we're going through a dull period, but we should celebrate the successes and the great movies we've made instead of constantly harping on what didn't work," he Manchu pointed out that no film industry is immune to failure. 'The success ratio in entertainment, across the globe, is 15–20%. Telugu is no different, Tamil is no different, and Hindi is no different. Just because 20% of Telugu films are working, and you're also seeing the top 20% of Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada — together, that success looks huge. But if you look at each industry in isolation, we're all facing the same challenges.'Vishnu Manchu is currently busy promoting his upcoming 'Kannappa', which will hit cinemas on June 27.
