Shankar to team up with Yash for a mega-budget war drama!

Tamil filmmaker Shankar is hugely popular for his penchant to helm big-scale films. His films like ‘Sivaji’, ‘Endhiran’ and ‘2.0’ are popular among cinephiles across the country. The director is currently working on ‘Indian 2’ with Kamal Haasan. After its completion, he is planning to make a mega-budget historic action film with some big stars from various languages.

Buzz is that Shankar has already got Kannada star Yash on board. Ever since the release of ‘KGF’, Yash has become a pan-Indian actor and his possible collaboration with Shankar will only enhance his popularity. Apparently, the director is also in talks with several other leading stars including Telugu actor Ram Charan but nothing has been finalized yet.

According to a report in DT Next, the film will start rolling in 2022 and the makers are eyeing to release it only in 2027. Shankar is expected to start pre-production works as soon as he finishes the shoot of ‘Indian 2’. The team has been on a break for sometime due to various reasons including Kamal Haasan’s political campaigning. They are most likely to wrap it up by the end of this year itself.

Master storms past 200 crore mark; Vijay’s fourth consecutive 100 crore grosser in TN

Vijay-Vijay Sethupathi starrer ‘Master’ continues its domination at the box office as the film entered the elite Rs 200 crore club. It is the fourth successive Vijay film after ‘Mersal’, ‘Sarkar’ and ‘Bigil’ to achieve this feat. Along with the aforementioned three films, ‘Master’ has also become the fourth consecutive film to gross over Rs 100 crore from Tamil Nadu box office alone. The fact that it has managed to achieve such a phenomenal feat despite the pandemic and the 50% audience restriction in theatres speaks a lot about Vijay’s massive stardom and the humongous reception that the film has got.

‘Master’ hit screens on January 13 after almost a 9-month long delay. Its release has given a major booster to the film industry that has been severely hit due to the pandemic. Apart from the excellent performance in the domestic markets, ‘Master’ is also making waves in international markets. Recently, it became the highest grossing movie for the opening weekend, globally.

Shoot for Mohanlal’s new film ‘Aarattu’ is nearing the final stages. The film directed by B Unnikrishnan has Mohanlal playing a larger-than-life character named Neyyattinkara Gopan. Udhayakrishna has scripted the film as a mass-masala entertainer set in a rural backdrop.
As per the makers, ‘Aarattu’ is a proper entertainer film with action, comedy and all essential commercial ingredients in it.

Last day, director B Unnikrishnan shared a photo taken with Mohanlal and KGF actor Garuda Ram in his social media handle. The latter is playing an important role in the film, which also marks his Malayalam debut. Though Ram is not playing the main antagonist role, he will be having fight scenes with Mohanlal.

Ram was Kannada star
Yash’s driver and personal bodyguard for over 12 years before he got noted by ‘KGF’ director Prashanth Neel. He then took part in an acting workshop for about a year and also worked out hard in the gym to play the role of Garuda. Eventually, his performance got noted and made him famous among the masses. The popularity of the character prompted him to prefix the character’s name to his real name.
