The youthful entertainer Little Hearts, starring Mouli Tanuj of 90's Middle Class Biopic fame and Shivani Nagaram of Ambajipeta Marriage Band fame, had its teaser unveiled today by blockbuster director Anil Ravipudi. Directed by Sai Marthand under the banner of ETV Win Original Production and produced by Aditya Hassan, the film is gearing up for a grand theatrical release on September 12, supported by producers Bunny Vasu and Vamsi Nandipati. Anil Ravipudi praised the teaser, saying, 'Teenage fun is something we all relate to—street fights, parental scoldings, crushes, exam tensions. Little Hearts captures it all in a lively way. Comedy films are best enjoyed in theatres, and this team has the guts to bring it out theatrically.' The cast and crew also expressed their excitement. Mouli Tanuj called it a 'true theatrical film' about a carefree son and his father's struggles, while Shivani Nagaram described her role Katyayani as a dream character. Veteran actor Rajeev Kanakala shared that the role gave him a 'new dimension,' joking that he might now be called a 'Settled Star.'

Allu Arjun's Low-Key Airport Appearance Shows Why He Is Truly Loved
Allu Arjun carried his luggage himself, instantly winning fans over with his down-to-earth gesture as he also engaged in a brief, friendly chat with a security personnel. Allu Arjun doesn't need a red carpet to make heads turn; his charm does the job anywhere, even at the airport. The actor, who has been frequently flying in and out of Mumbai for the shoot of his much-anticipated project AA22 x A6, was once again spotted on Wednesday. This time, it wasn't just his style but his humility that stood out. Amidst the presence of security and staff, Allu Arjun chose to keep things simple and grounded, carrying his own luggage, a gesture that instantly won hearts. He even took a moment to exchange a friendly chat with a security personnel, showcasing his warmth and approachable nature. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) Meanwhile, Allu Arjun's much-awaited pan-India project with Atlee will feature him alongside Deepika Padukone. Tentatively titled AA22 x A6, the film's ensemble cast also includes Rashmika Mandanna, Janhvi Kapoor and Mrunal Thakur, apart from a leading Baahubali actor who has also reportedly joined the cast. Any guesses? Speculations are rife that Atlee has approached Baahubali actress Ramya Krishnan, who played Sivagami in the film. If confirmed, this would be Ramya's first project with both Allu Arjun and Arjun. Allu Arjun To Play Four Roles In AA22 X A6 If the reports are to be believed, Allu Arjun has a quadruple role in AA22 x A6. As per insider sources, he will portray an entire generational lineage, a grandfather, a father and two sons. 'It's a first for him and a cinematic challenge few would dare attempt," a source told Bollywood Hungama. He added, 'He's breathing life into an entire family tree." While Atlee was sceptical initially, it was only after Allu Arjun's insistence on playing all four roles himself that he decided to conduct look tests. 'It wasn't just working; it was elevating the film to another level. Viewers will get to witness four distinct shades of Allu Arjun in one film," the source added. Deepika Padukone To Join Shoot In November While filming is slated to wrap in the latter half of 2026, Deepika will join Allu Arjun and Atlee for the shoot in November. According to Pinkvilla, Deepika has allotted 100 days for the film shoot and will be filming dramatic and action-packed sequences throughout the journey. view comments First Published: August 20, 2025, 16:49 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

People absolutely love how grounded and relatable he gets with every person. The latest episode of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati 17' turned into a laughter riot after Amitabh Bachchan opened up about a quirky memory from his youth—when he and his college friends would sneak into weddings just to enjoy the food. The show began with Big B greeting rollover contestant Shruti Jain from Mumbai. Shruti revealed her preference for a simple court marriage over a traditional wedding, explaining that she didn't want to splurge on ceremonies. 'Mujhe apni wedding nahi marriage acchi chahiye,' she said. Bachchan praised her outlook, adding, 'I have learnt a new term these days, 'she is very sorted'.' That's when the 'Sholay' actor to share a slice of his own mischievous past. 'Hum jab college mein the toh rupaya paisa toh hota nahi tha humare paas, shayad 2 rupaya pocket money milta tha.. toh jab bhook lage shaam ko toh samajh mein nahi aata tha kya karen?

This isn't the first time the megastar has reminisced about his modest beginnings on the show.

He fondly described the phuchkas near Victoria Memorial as the finest he had ever eaten. On movie front, Bachchan was last seen in 'Kalki 2898 AD'.
