Official! Keerthy Suresh's 'Revolver Rita' locks release date; aims THIS festival in August

Time of India12-06-2025
The much-awaited release date of
Keerthy Suresh
's next film 'Revolver Rita' has been announced. The film is set to hit theaters on 27 August, aligning with the celebration of Vinayagar Chaturthi.
This official confirmation has encouraged the fans, who have been waiting for the update since the film's teaser, which was unveiled on Keerthy Suresh's birthday.
With the prescribed release during a major festival, producers are expecting to attract large family audiences to theaters.
Anticipated for Keerthy Suresh's strong comeback
'Revolver Rita' is an important film in Keerthy Suresh's career, especially after the lackluster reception her recent films have received.
Her last Tamil outing, 'Raghu Thatha', was released in 2024, but failed to leave an impression at the box office. She then played the lead role in 'Baby John,' which was the Hindi remake of Vijay's 'Theri', which did not perform as expected. Despite the failures, Keerthy Suresh continues to work in diverse roles, and 'Revolver Rita' is expected to be shown in a bold and dynamic avatar.
Stellar cast and crew raise expectations
Directed by JK Chandru, who first helmed 'Naveena Saraswati Sabadham', 'Revolver Rita' boasts a unique story and an ensemble cast. Along with Keerthy Suresh, the film also stars Sunil, Ajay Ghosh,
John Vijay
, Redin Kingsley, Suresh Chakravarthy, and
Blade Shankar
.
The technical team consists of cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan and music composed by Sean Roldan, as both bring a rich creative value to the project.
Teaser generated great buzz
After wrapping her shooting in 2024, 'Revolver Rita' has been in post-production for several months. The teaser indicated a bizarre, action-packed story, where Keerthy Suresh is playing a powerful, possibly eccentric character with Suresh. Now with its dramatic release, 'Revolver Rita' aims to offer a fresh cinematic experience to the audience.

Rajinikanth's 'Coolie' didn't deserve an 'A' certificate, says Producer Elred Kumar

Chennai: Lauding director Lokesh Kanakaraj's action extravaganza 'Coolie', featuring Superstar Rajinikanth in the lead, one of Tamil film industry's well-known producers Elred Kumar has now expressed surprise and displeasure at the film having been given an 'A' certificate by the Censor Board. Taking to his X timeline soon after having watched the film, the producer wrote, "Watched #Coolie @Dir_Lokesh fantastic work. #Rajini sir amazes me, Superstar is always a Superstar! @anirudhofficial elevates the film to another level. Other language films with more violence get U/A, yet #Coolie gets an A? This film didn't deserve that. Something fuzzy, Tamil film fraternity needs to step up." Producer Elred Kumar isn't the only one to have expressed this opinion. Scores of other viewers who watched the film too have expressed a similar opinion. In fact, the decision of the Censor Board to grant an 'A' certificate to the film raised many eyebrows, even before the film's release. The development even had a section of the audience concerned. Family audiences and children form a considerable chunk of actor Rajinikanth's fan base and Coolie getting an 'A' certificate meant that families would be unable to take their children to theatres to watch the eagerly-awaited film. However, despite the A certificate, the film has performed exceptionally well, setting the cash registers to ring at the box office. The film's makers, Sun Pictures, claimed that the film had made a worldwide gross of Rs 151 crores, the highest ever day one worldwide gross made by a Tamil film. Coolie also became the highest overseas Day 1 grosser among Tamil films, making over 8.75 million Dollars. Coolie, which seems to be living up to the huge expectations from it, has made headlines by becoming the highest overseas procurement for a Tamil film to date. Rumours doing the rounds in the industry also suggest that director Lokesh Kanakaraj's much awaited action entertainer has reached audiences in over a 100 countries around the world. Hamsini Entertainment, a key player in international film distribution, is backing the film's global distribution. Apart from Rajinikanth, the film also stars stalwarts from the Indian film industry like Nagarjuna, Sathyaraj, Aamir Khan, Upendra, Soubin Shahir and Shruti Haasan. Anirudh has composed the music for the film, marking his fourth consecutive film with director Lokesh Kanagaraj. Cinematography for the film is by Girish Gangadharan and editing is by Philomin Raj. Interestingly, director Lokesh Kanakaraj had disclosed that 'Coolie', which is Rajinikanth's 171st film, will be a stand alone film and not a part of his Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU).

(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Malayalam superstar Mohanlal's upcoming family drama 'Hridayapoorvam', directed by veteran filmmaker Sathyan Anthikad, is fast becoming one of the most anticipated films of the year. Now the makers have released the lyrical video of the film's melodious track 'Venmathi', exuding Onam vibes. The soothing composition which is set to tune by Justin Prabhakaran, has been soulfully rendered by Sid Sriram. Lyricist Manu Manjith's heartfelt words, accompanied by simple yet beautiful visuals, make the song a treat for both the ears and the eyes. Adding to its uniqueness is an a capella portion sung by Shibi Srinivasan, with backing vocals from Feji, Indu Sanath, Devu Mathew, and Gayathry Rajiv. Onam festivities get a cinematic touch The timing of Venmathi's release could not be more perfect. The film is set for an Onam 2025 release, with the lyrical track dropping just days ahead of the festivities. Mohanlal himself shared the song on his social media handles, writing, '#Hridayapoorvam lyrical video #Venmathi out now!' The film's production house too shared the song with the caption, 'Good things take time… and this one's straight from the heart.' Venmathi Lyrical Video - Hridayapoorvam | Mohanlal | Sathyan Anthikad |Sid Sriram|Justin Prabhakaran Netizens react - 'Heavenly' Fans have already begun hailing the track as an 'Onam gift,' adding to the celebratory mood that accompanies Mohanlal's films during festival seasons. One comment read, "Hoping Lalettan to score a hattrick blockbuster with Hridayapoorvam." Another comment read, "Wat a freshness !!!!.." A third one commented, "Justin Prabhakar is so under utilized by Tamil Industry. Glad that he is making a mark in Malayalam. Kunjiramayanam, Pachu and now Hridayapoorvam. " Comedy, heart, and Sathyan Anthikad's magic Beyond its music, 'Hridayapoorvam' has already raised expectations thanks to a teaser released earlier. The teaser was filled with situational humor and shows Mohanlal in a lighthearted exchange with a non-Malayali fan of Fahadh Faasil. The teaser perfectly blends humor with cultural quirks in a way that only Sathyan Anthikad can. With a stellar supporting cast that includes Malavika Mohanan, Sangeeth Prathap, Siddique, Sangita, Lalu Alex, and Baburaj, the film will release on August 28.
