Solar street lights installed on Gerik-Jeli highway, motorists thankful
'THE solar lights are already street is let the light pole get hit (for the area) to become dark again.' That was among the reactions from excited members of the public when solar-powered street lights were installed along the East-West Highway (JRTB) Gerik-Jeli route. In fact, through the comments section on aTikTok video post by @Muhammad Asyraaf, most users were also excited as they frequently use the route, besides praising the Public Works Department (JKR). TikTok user catalognonaa said: 'Alhamdulillah after this, (I won't) be afraid to return from the kampung to the university. The road is always dark and dangerous (to travel) as well. 'Great, they've installed the lights. Don't forget to do maintenance ya,' reminded @Jai. 'It's really good to install solar lights. No need to go through the trouble of laying cables. Not to mention cables getting stolen,' said another user. Earlier, Kosmo reported that Perak JKR would install 385 solar-type street lights on the JRTB Gerik-Jeli route this month. Perak JKR director, Zamri Mat Kasim reportedly said the installation of solar-type street lights was made at the accident location involving a bus carrying 42 Universiti Pendididkan Sultan Idris (UPSI) students with a Proton Alza last month.

'Thammudu' OTT release: When and where to watch Nithiin's action drama; read more
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) After its theatrical release on July 4, 2025, 'Thammudu' is all set for its digital debut. The Nithiin-starrer, which struggled at the box office amid mixed-to-negative reviews, will begin streaming on Netflix from August 1. The platform confirmed the release date through an official post that read, 'Thana lakshyanni, akkani thirigi thevadaniki ee thammudu is on a mission!' The film will be available in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada, opening it up to a broader South Indian audience. A story of siblings, survival, and skill 'Thammudu' follows Jai, played by Nithiin , a gifted archer separated from his sister Jhansi in childhood. Years later, Jhansi, now a principled government officer, refuses to sign a falsified report about a chemical factory explosion in Vizag. Her moral stand turns her into a target of powerful and corrupt forces. As her world begins to crumble, Jai reenters her life. The hero is determined to protect her and her family using not just courage, but also the precision of his bow. Even with an intriguing plot, the movie had received mostly mixed reviews from the audiences. Thammudu - Official Trailer A packed cast and a new turn for familiar faces Directed and written by Venu Sriram, 'Thammudu' marks his first collaboration with Nithiin. The film also brings actress Laya back to Telugu screens, years after her brief appearance in Amar Akbar Anthony. The supporting cast includes Sapthami Gowda, Varsha Bollamma, Saurabh Sachdeva, Swasika, and Hari Teja, among others. B. Ajaneesh Loknath's music received decent responses from the viewers. ETimes gave the movie a rating of only 2 stars out of 5 and an excerpt from our official review read, "On the technical front, the film is visually appealing, with cinematographer KV Guhan capturing the tribal locales with flair. Ajaneesh Loknath's background score is atmospheric but rarely elevates the emotional beats. The action choreography is stylised, though several sequences stretch believability, further distancing the viewer from the story's emotional core. Thammudu had all the ingredients for a stirring emotional-action drama, but in trying too hard to be everything, it ends up being less than the sum of its parts. A film that had the potential to hit the bullseye sadly misses the mark."
