Emraan Hashmi diagnosed with dengue
Emraan Hashmi has been diagnosed with dengue while filming his upcoming pan-Indian film OG alongside Pawan Kalyan . We have learnt that the actor was shooting in Aarey Colony, Goregaon, Mumbai, when he began experiencing symptoms. Production sources confirm that Emraan is currently recuperating and has taken a temporary break from the shoot. Despite the health setback, the production team is optimistic about resuming the shoot once Hashmi recovers. A source from the production house shared with us, 'Emraan started feeling uneasy and a doctor was consulted. He was later diagnosed with dengue. He has been advised to rest and will resume the shoot once he recovers.' OG, which is slated for a global release on September 25 this year, marks Emraan's Telugu debut, and he plays the primary role alongside Pawan Kalyan. In a chat with News18 Showsha, Emraan observed that the Hindi film industry is truly lacking the courage to take risks. Talking about why Indian producers avoid risky projects, Emraan said, 'If you put that across to a producer over here, I would say that nine out of ten of them would tell you, 'Are you out of your mind?' It would be a logistical nightmare. Thirteen minutes into a shot, someone may goof up and we would have to do the entire thing again. What would happen to the budget? We would need a director who leads the team, to be audacious and mad enough to make a show that way.' Talking about the scripts he's been reading lately, Emraan Hashmi said many of them feel outdated or too similar to what he's already done. 'I'm like, why can't you see me or a film from a fresh perspective? I know that it's easier said than done. I definitely do say no more than yes. We should at least put out something we believe in rather than something that's run-of-the-mill. The probability of that working is more,' the actor added.

‘Trance of Kuberaa' teaser sets the tone for a high-stakes power drama
The second glimpse of Kuberaa, titled Trance of Kuberaa, has stormed the internet, plunging viewers into a morally complex world driven by greed, ambition, and unrelenting power. With National Award-winning actors Dhanush and Nagarjuna at the forefront, and Sekhar Kammula in the director's chair, this pan-Indian thriller is shaping up to be one of the most intense cinematic experiences of the year. The teaser showcases a hypnotic, gritty universe where each character is layered with ambition and secrets. Nagarjuna stands out with a powerful, emotionally rich performance, portraying a man of values yet wrapped in mystery. Dhanush, known for his raw intensity, commands attention throughout the video. Rashmika Mandanna and Jim Sarbh also make brief but impactful appearances, teasing their pivotal roles in the narrative. What sets Trance of Kuberaa apart is its unconventional approach to marketing — not just a teaser, but a stylised mood piece that immerses audiences in the film's dark universe. At the core of the teaser is Devi Sri Prasad's pulsating track 'Naadi Naadi Naadi Naade Yee Lokamantha', a stirring Telugu anthem voiced by Dhanush, Hemachandra, and others, perfectly echoing the film's themes. Produced by Suniel Narang and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao under Sri Venkateswara Cinemas LLP and Amigos Creations Pvt Ltd, Kuberaa is slated for a grand release in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam. With conscience and chaos colliding, Kuberaa is poised to redefine the action-drama genre.

Vishnu Manchu's production house claims ‘sabotage, personal vendetta' behind Kannappa's stolen hard drive: ‘No secret who orchestrated this'
Just a month before the release of actor Vishnu Manchu's pan-Indian film Kannappa, a hard disk containing footage from the movie has allegedly been stolen from the office of his production house 24 Frames Factory in Hyderabad's Film Nagar. Now, 24 Frames Factory has released a statement, claiming that there's 'sabotage and personal vendetta' behind the robbery. In the statement, they confirmed that a hard drive was stolen. 'A hard drive containing a pivotal action sequence between two lead characters of Kannappa, along with critical VFX work, was stolen during transit. The drive was shipped from Hive Studios, Mumbai, and intended to be delivered to our official production office,' it read. Also Read | Hard disk with visuals of Vishnu Manchu starrer Kannappa 'stolen' from Hyderabad production house: Police Reports also suggested that the individuals who stole the drive were associated with Team Kannappa, but the production house dismissed those claims and added, 'Shockingly, the package was unlawfully intercepted and signed for by an individual named Mr. Raghu, who acted under the instructions of a woman named Charita. Neither of them are employees, representatives, or associates of 24 Frames Factory. Their act constitutes impersonation and theft.' Vishnu Manchu's production house 24 Frames Factory also revealed that a police complaint was filed around four weeks ago. 'A police complaint was formally filed nearly four weeks ago, and the investigating authorities have been fully briefed on the identity of those behind this. It is no secret who orchestrated this attempt—both we and law enforcement are well aware of the forces at play. The perpetrator's identity is known, and the motive is clear,' the statement said. They also claimed that the culprits have plans to leak more than 90 minutes of footage from Kannappa. 'More disturbingly, credible intelligence has recently emerged that these individuals, under guidance from the same source, are planning to leak over 90 minutes of unreleased footage online in a desperate attempt to derail the release of Kannappa. In response, the Executive Producer has formally escalated the matter to Cyber Crime authorities to take swift and firm action.' Vishnu's production house concluded the statement with, 'It is disheartening to see such cheap and calculated tactics being deployed from within the industry itself. This is not mischief—it is sabotage, and it reflects a deeply unfortunate descent into personal vendetta-driven behaviour. At a time when Telugu cinema is earning global recognition, stooping to such levels is not just regressive—it is disgraceful.' Also Read | 'Akshay Kumar rejected me twice, had to request Sudha Kongara to convince him,' recalls Kannappa star Vishnu Manchu: 'Couldn't afford his fees' According to a police complaint, a copy of which is with The Indian Express, the film's footage was sent to their office by Hive Studios, a VFX vendor, from Mumbai on March 23. The complaint further mentioned that the courier was sent by DTDC. A staff member of the production house received the courier and gave it to another staff member, who is allegedly absconding with the disk. 'The hard drive was taken without any authorisation and with malicious and deliberate intent,' the complaint, which is quoted in the FIR, read. Kannappa is set to hit theatres on June 27. It also features Mohan Babu, R Sarathkumar, Arpit Ranka, Kaushal Manda, Rahul Madhav, Devaraj, Mukesh Rishi, Brahmanandam, Raghu Babu, Preity Mukhundhan and Madhoo in pivotal roles and Mohanlal, Prabhas, Akshay Kumar and Kajal Aggarwal in cameos.
