Prabhas’ multilingual project titled Radhe Shyam?

Prabhas, who rose to international fame after the humongous success of gobsmackingly epic Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Baahubali: The Conclusion (2017), was busy shooting for his 20th outing when the Coronavirus pandemic struck and all shooting activities came to a screeching halt everywhere in the world.

Though the Indian film industry is gearing up to resume shooting in a couple of weeks, there is no update on when the makers of Prabhas’ next will roll the camera again. Meanwhile, the news is coming in that the makers have finalised a new title for the romantic action entertainer. Earlier called Jaan, the movie has now been titled Radhe Shyam. However, there has been no official announcement confirming the development.


Last seen in Saaho, which emerged as one of the highest-grossing films of 2019, Prabhas plays a dual role in his next. One of his characters is a palmist. Pooja Hegde, who has been delivering back-to-back hits across industries, stars opposite Prabhas. This is the first time when both actors are working together on a project. The audience is really excited and is looking forward to seeing their crackling chemistry on the silver screen.

Directed by well-known South Indian filmmaker Radhakrishna Kumar, the forthcoming film has become one of the most anticipated movies of the year. But if reports are to be believed, it may not make it to theatres in 2020. Some media outlets suggest that the makers are planning to release it early next year as a major chunk is yet to be shot.

Prabhas will also star in an untitled film, which will be helmed by Nag Ashwin. Pooja Hegde, on the other hand, will romance superstar Salman Khan in her next Hindi film Kabhi Ek Kabhi Diwali.

Akshay Kumar tells King Charles to watch Kesari 2: “You’ll know why the British should say sorry”

Akshay Kumar isn’t asking for an apology. He just wants the British to look back and really see what happened. With his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 hitting screens on April 18, the actor is urging both the UK government and King Charles to watch the film and confront a dark chapter in colonial history.

The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and based on The Case That Shook the Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, tells the story of C. Sankaran Nair, a Malayali lawyer who took legal action against General Dyer and the British government after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The massacre when British troops opened fire on a peaceful crowd remains one of the most horrific events of British rule in India.

Ageing Icon or Fading Star? Salman Khan’s outdated onscreen avatar sparks criticism in yet another box-office debacle

Salman Khan is stuck in the past

There have been many instances across generations where once-popular leading men, unwilling to grow old gracefully, have clung to past glories so desperately that they have ended up dismantling their own legacies.

These ageing Bollywood idols continued romancing inappropriately young heroines, playing roles far removed from their real age, and starring in outdated movies where their presence mattered more than the storyline.
