Dhanush film shoot in Tiger Reserve - Kerala Story for release - Tovino film bombs
The filming of Captain Miller, featuring Dhanush, has resumed in the buffer zone of Kalakad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve forest region after it was temporarily halted by the District Collector. The pause was caused by complaints from locals about the use of explosives and night shooting with heavy laser lights by the production unit. However, the production house took action to ensure smooth filming and the Collector's order was withdrawn. Recently, Dhanush was seen at Tuticorin airport as he joined the final schedule of the film, which is expected to wrap up soon. The movie, set in the 1920s, also stars Shiva Rajkumar as Dhanush's brother, along with Priyanka Mohan, Sundeep Kishan, and Nivedhithaa Sathish among others. GV Prakash Kumar is composing the music, and the release of the first single or teaser is anticipated soon.

Kerala Box office - Nee;avalicham bombs - Romancham most profitable
The much-anticipated movie Neelavelicham, directed by Ashiq Abu and starring Tovino, has failed to perform well at the box office, grossing only Rs 1.75 crores in its first five days. This is the second flop for the duo after their previous movie Naradan. PS2 advance bookings are slow, with the highest number of bookings so far being in Trivandrum Aries Plex, which has sold close to 6000 tickets. In contrast, Friday Matinee reported that #Romancham has become the 7th highest-grossing movie of all time and the 4th highest-grossing Malayalam movie in Kerala, with a total gross of 42.10 crores. It is also the 6th highest-grossing Malayalam movie worldwide, with a total gross of 69.60 crores. The movie has grossed more than 50 lakhs in approximately 15 screens and has crossed the 1 crore mark in Trivandrum Aries Plex, Ernakulam Pvr, and Kavitha. Cochin multiplexes have contributed around 3 crores to the total gross, while national multiplexes (Pvr + Inox+ Cinepolis) have grossed 5.50 crores across the state. The movie has been screened in approximately 31,000 shows in Kerala, with an overall cost of 6.50 crores. The OTT and satellite deals for the movie are moderate, considering its box office performance, but still good considering the cast involved. Overall, #Romancham is one of the all-time profitable Malayalam movies.

Kerala Story ready for release
The upcoming film, The Kerala Story, produced by director Vipul Amrutlal Shah, portrays the heart-wrenching tale of missing girls from Kerala over the past few years. The film's trailer was shared on Instagram by Siddhi Idnani on Wednesday, and it is scheduled to be released worldwide on May 5. The trailer begins by showcasing Adha Sharma's character, a Hindu girl from Kerala, who, along with Siddhi Idnani's character, is coerced into converting to Islam. The character Fatima, played by Adah, recounts her harrowing experience of being abducted from her home, brainwashed by religious extremists, and turned into an ISIS terrorist. She eventually ends up in an Afghan prison. Sudipto Sen has written and directed The Kerala Story, which delves into the tragic events surrounding 32,000 women who have gone missing in Kerala. The film is also supported by Ashin A Shah of Sunshine Pictures. Recently, CPM MP John Brittas criticized the film's teaser, calling it a misrepresentation of facts, and urged Union Home Minister Amit Shah to take action. Despite the controversy, the trailer of the film delivers the same message.
