Thug Life Makers Claim Karnataka Govt Not Acting Against Threats: 'Not A Single FIR Filed'
Last Updated: Kamal Haasan landed in a controversy recently during the Thug Life audio launch event in Chennai, where he made a statement linking the origins of the Kannada language to Tamil. The makers of Kamala Haasan's Thug Life have alleged that the Karnataka government is not protecting them from threats amid the actor's 'Kannada born out of Tamil" remark. Recently, the makers filed a plea in the court seeking protection and claimed that the state government has not filed even a single FIR as of now against groups who are openly threatening them. 'A fringe group issued threats of large-scale violence, including the burning of theatres and attacks against members of the Tamil linguistic minority residing in Karnataka. Despite these open and public threats, not a single FIR was registered, nor was any prosecution initiated by the State Government. On the contrary, the government appeared to adopt the position of the very fringe elements that issued those threats. We are aggrieved by this inaction and are now before the Supreme Court, seeking enforcement of this Court's past directions," Advocate A Velan said, as quoted by Hindustan Times. The plea of the Thug Life makers argued that such inaction violates the fundamental right to freedom of speech and expression under Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution. The Supreme Court has now sought the state government's response on this. For the unversed, Kamal Haasan landed in a big controversy recently during the Thug Life audio launch event in Chennai, where he made a statement linking the origins of the Kannada language to Tamil. 'Actor Shivarajkumar is my family living in another state. That's why he is here. That's why when I started my speech, I said 'my life and my family is Tamil'. Your language (Kannada) was born out of Tamil. So you are included in that line," he said. The actor's remarks quickly went viral and triggered backlash from pro-Kannada groups in Karnataka. The film was also banned in Karnataka, and a complaint was also filed against the actor. Later, Haasan also wrote a letter to the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC) and claimed that his comment was 'misinterpreted'. 'It pains me that my statement at the Thug Life audio launch, spoken out of genuine affection for the legendary Dr. Rajkumar's family, especially Shiva Rajkumar has been misunderstood and taken out of context. My words were intended only to convey that we are all one and from the same family and not to diminish Kannada in any way. There is no dispute or debate on the rich legacy of Kannada language," he wrote. First Published:

Rana Naidu 2: Arjun Rampal Felt 'Small' In Front Of Rana Daggubati, Gained 14 Kgs
Arjun also revealed that while he is used to playing the bad guy on screen, it does take a toll on him mentally. Arjun Rampal has joined Venkatesh and Rana Daggubati in Raina Naidu 2. The actor plays the menacing villain, Rauf; while Arjun has played villains before, this one was different for him. The actor felt small in front of the towering Rana and had to gain weight for this role. He revealed to the Hindustan Times that he gained 14 kgs to match up to Rana. Arjun Rampal expressed how he had to undergo a physical transformation for this role. 'Talking about physicality, the thing that I felt I really needed to work on for Rauf was gaining weight. Especially because I was working with Rana, who is a huge guy. He is really tall and big, and has this incredible screen presence that I was feeling small next to him," Arjun said. 'I decided to gain weight, because that's the only way it would appear like two guys, equals, at each other. If I go at this weight, which I have now, I would really look small next to him. So, it was important for me to put on this mass and have Rauf appear big," he added. Arjun also revealed that while he is used to playing the bad guy on screen, it does take a toll on him mentally. However, he has managed to make it a fun process. 'Nobody likes to be that (bad) guy. It takes a lot out of you. It's not an easy space to be in. But while doing it, you can have a lot of fun. So, I enjoyed it," he said. Arjun Rampal explained, 'The more time you've spent working on your character with your director, writers, and yourself, then when you are on set, you can have fun. Because by then you have given your inputs, understood the character, and done all the work. And it was very important for me for Rauf to be unpredictable, funny, and have a belief system." News18 Showsha gave the show 3/5 stars. 'Rana Naidu season two may be a letdown when compared to its previous counterpart, but watch it for the performances and the emotional moments. It's a pretty good representation of a dysfunctional family where trouble simmers at every corner, dead bodies are dug in and out on a whim and insecure fathers accuse their daughters of sleeping around. It still continues to be a crazy, reckless world where everything's fair in love and war. At the end of it, you're left with Karan Johar's golden words that it's all about loving your family. But here's hoping that season three turns out to be a less safe and more unhinged version of season two," our review mentioned. First Published:

Drishyam 3: Mohanlal And Jeethu Joseph Likely To Begin Filming In September 2025
Last Updated: Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph are reportedly set to start filming Drishyam 3 in September 2025. Malayalam cinema's iconic duo—Mohanlal and director Jeethu Joseph—are ready to bring back the suspense and intrigue of the Drishyam universe. According to a new report by Cinema For You, the third installment of the celebrated thriller franchise is likely to begin production in September 2025, much to the excitement of fans across the country. While speculation had long surrounded their return, the report suggests that Drishyam 3 might finally move ahead—possibly at the cost of delaying their much-anticipated but long-stalled project Ram yet again. With dates aligning and mounting pressure from eager fans, the team seems to be prioritizing the next chapter in Georgekutty's chilling tale of deception and survival. An official confirmation is still awaited, but the buzz has already reignited anticipation among viewers who have followed Georgekutty's journey since the very beginning. For the uninitiated, Drishyam (2013) was a game-changer in Indian cinema. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the original film followed Georgekutty, a simple cable TV operator, whose life spirals into chaos after a shocking incident involving his family. What followed was a masterclass in suspenseful storytelling, as Georgekutty wove a web of lies to protect his loved ones from law enforcement. The film's gripping narrative, moral ambiguity, and powerful performances struck a chord with audiences, making it a blockbuster and a blueprint for remakes across multiple Indian languages. In 2021, the franchise returned with Drishyam 2: The Resumption, picking up seamlessly from where the first left off. Released directly on Amazon Prime Video due to the pandemic, the sequel was lauded for maintaining the franchise's high standards of storytelling, layered drama, and emotional depth. Mohanlal once again proved why he's considered one of India's finest actors, and Jeethu Joseph's direction was praised for its sophistication and restraint. As the Malayalam original prepares to enter its third and possibly final phase, interestingly, its Bollywood counterpart is also revving up for its next chapter. Actor Ajay Devgn is reportedly set to reprise his role as Vijay Salgaonkar in Drishyam 3, with Abhishek Pathak returning to direct. That film, according to Pinkvilla, will go on floors in August 2025, creating a fascinating parallel between the two cinematic universes. Meanwhile, Mohanlal continues to be one of the busiest stars in the industry. After headlining Thudarum, a hard-hitting crime drama about a father's quest for justice, he is now gearing up for Hridayapoorvam, a feel-good family film helmed by veteran director Sathyan Anthikad and co-starring Malavika Mohanan. His packed slate also includes big-ticket projects like Vrusshabha and MMMN, further cementing his status as a pan-Indian force to reckon with. With Drishyam 3, Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph have the potential to close the chapter on one of Indian cinema's most iconic franchises with the same finesse and unpredictability that made it a cultural phenomenon in the first place.
