Karthi regales Coimbatore fans- Salman Khan film scares PS 2 - Agent - Sam- Chay fans spat

Karthi made a big impression with the audience during the promotional tour of his upcoming film, PS 2, in Coimbatore. Playing the role of Vanthiya thevan, Karthi's Coimbatore dialect, coupled with his father Sivakumar's Coimbatore roots, made him an instant hit. He even delivered two dialogues that were removed from the first part of the film. One of them summarizes the entire story, which revolves around a property dispute between an elder brother's son and a younger brother's grandson. The other dialogue, which received an enthusiastic response from the crowd, describes the characters of Trisha and Aishwarya Rai in the film. According to Karthi, the challenge is to make the story accessible to those who haven't read Kalki's novel while also satisfying those who have and compare the film to the book. ------

Salman Khan film hits PS 2 Hindi prospects The release of Salman Khan's film "Kisi ka Bhai Kisi ka Jaan" on April 21 is expected to have a negative impact on the box office prospects of Mani Ratnam's "Ponniyin Selvan 2" in North India. "Ponniyin Selvan 2" is set to release worldwide on April 28 in four South Indian languages and Hindi, and the cast, which includes Vikram, Trisha, and Karthi, have embarked on a promotional tour via a private jet to visit several cities in the South as well as hold media events in Mumbai and New Delhi. The makers of "Agent," a Telugu film starring Akhil Akkineni and Mammootty, have announced that the Malayalam version will release in Kerala on April 28 alongside the Telugu version. However, due to the release of Salman's film a week earlier, they have postponed the Hindi version's release. ----

Samantha blocks Naga Chaitanya fans The film "Shakunthalam," which had Samantha as the central character, has unfortunately not performed well at the box office, earning only Rs 7 crores worldwide. Out of this amount, Rs 5 crores were contributed by the two Telugu speaking states. As a result, Naga Chaitanya's fans are pleased and are criticizing Samantha. One fan remarked that merely using emotional stories as a promotional tactic is not sufficient to attract an audience. It's been reported that Samantha has blocked such negative comments on her social media. In the past, when Naga Chaitanya's movie "ThankYou" didn't do well and Samantha's "Yashoda" was a success, he faced criticism. However, the tables have now turned. -----

Dasara effect Nani's upcoming 30th film, which revolves around the bonding of a father and son and stars Murnal Thakkaur as the lead, has been sold to an OTT platform for Rs 30 crores. This amount constitutes half of the film's budget, and the sale was likely influenced by the success of the recent film Dasara , which crossed the Rs 100 crore mark. The film is directed by newcomer Shaurya and features music by Hesham, who previously composed the hit soundtrack for the Pranav Mohanlal film, Hridhyam.
