AMMA election: Actor Jagadeesh opts out of race for post of president in Malayalam film body
Actor Jagadeesh has decided to withdraw his nomination for the post of president of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA). He was among the six actors who had filed their nomination papers for the top post in the actors' body in the Malayalam film industry. Mr. Jagadeesh had sought the concurrence of actors, including Mohanlal, Mammootty, and Suresh Gopi, before deciding to withdraw his nomination. It was stated that he decided to withdraw from the fray amid the support from various quarters for a woman president. Swetha Menon is the lone woman candidate, who had filed the nomination for the post. Actor Raveendran had withdrawn his nomination on Tuesday, though he had said that he would contest for the post of general secretary. Actor Devan had said on Wednesday (July 30, 2025) that he had no plans to withdraw from the contest for the post of president as he pointed out that he had decided to file his nomination only after senior actor Mohanlal opted out of the race. He said that 'women had every right to assume leadership roles in any organisation. But it should not be at the mercy of men. It would be an insult to actor Swetha Menon, who is contesting for the post of president, if Mr. Jagadeesh has to withdraw from the race for her,' he said. A clear picture on the final list of candidates in the electoral race will emerge by Thursday (July 31, 2025) evening. The deadline for withdrawal of nominations is around 3 p.m. The election is scheduled on August 15.

Bigg Boss Malayalam 7: Just three days to go! Mohanlal warns against 'cuteness overload', crybabies, and 'kalipp'
Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 is launching in three days, with host Mohanlal cautioning contestants against predictable gameplay patterns like excessive cuteness, crying, or aggression. Promos have targeted favouritism and gossiping, aiming for a more genuine environment. The season premieres on August 3rd, featuring contestants joined by loved ones and a new set in Chennai, promising high-voltage drama. The wait is almost over for Bigg Boss Malayalam fans, as the seventh season of the hugely popular reality show is set to launch in just three days. With the countdown ticking, the makers are ramping up excitement with hard-hitting promos, and this time, host Mohanlal has issued a sharp warning against repetitive and overdramatic gameplay inside the house. In the latest promotional teaser, Mohanlal is seen entering a theatrical setup, where three familiar character tropes are being enacted on stage: a girl with an overly 'cute' persona, another in tears, and a young man displaying exaggerated anger. The host then makes his powerful entrance with the iconic dialogue 'Nadakame Ulakam', setting the tone for the season ahead. He cautions future contestants against falling into predictable patterns such as cuteness overload, playing the crybaby card, or resorting to unnecessary aggression, popularly known as the 'kalippan' type. This isn't the first time the promos have called out such antics. Previous teasers have cleverly taken digs at favouritism, groupism, gossiping, and misuse of privileges, all of which have often stirred controversy in past seasons. This bold move by the makers suggests that Season 7 is aiming to break free from old clichés and introduce a sharper, more genuine gameplay environment.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 13: Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's debut movie, Saiyaara, is now the biggest Bollywood grosser of 2025 in the international market, surpassing the lifetime overseas collection of Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the Mohit Suri directorial grossed approximately ₹ 94 crores overseas in just 12 days, compared to the ₹ 91 crores Chhaava earned in its lifetime at the international market. Among all Indian releases in 2025, Saiyaara now stands as the second-highest-grossing film internationally, also beating Malayalam superstar Mohanlal's Thudarum ( ₹ 93.80 crore). Only Mohanlal's L2: Empuraan stands above it with a towering international gross of ₹ 124.50 crore. Globally, Saiyaara has crossed the ₹ 400 crore mark, becoming the second Indian film of 2025, next only to Chhaava ( ₹ 808 crore). Its total worldwide gross has reached ₹ 413.75 crores in 12 days, and it is now eyeing entry into the prestigious ₹ 500 crore club, possibly by the end of the third weekend. Saiyaara's India gross stood at ₹ 319.75 crore. This will be a monumental achievement for a romantic drama led by two debutants. This dream run is expected to continue for Saiyaara till at least August 1, after which it will face some competition from Dhadak 2 and Son of Sardaar 2. According to Sacnilk, Saiyaara witnessed a 30% fall in its earnings on Wednesday, which is just marginal considering that it is the movie's second mid-week. Saiyaara earned ₹ 7 crore on Wednesday, Day 13. Saiyaara's 13-day total now stands at ₹ 273.50 crore net in India. It will possibly achieve ₹ 300 crore net by the end of the second week. Saiyaara is a romance-drama about Krish Kapoor (Ahaan Panday), a budding musician, and Vaani Batra (Aneet Padda), a shy writer. Through their relationship, the film explores love, loss, and drama.
