Trisha opts out of Chiranjeevi’s Acharya due to creative differences!

One of South cinema’s leading heroines, Trisha has walked out of Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi’s new film ‘Acharya’ citing creative differences. Kortala Siva is directing the film that tracks the story of a social reformer, who fights against misuse of temple funds and donations. Trisha was supposed to be paired opposite Chiranjeevi. However, the actress feels that things have not turned out as planned initially. She has tweeted,

Sometimes things turn out to be different from what was initially said and discussed.Due to creative differences,I have chosen not to be part of Chiranjeevi sirs film.Wishing the team well.To my lovely Telugu audiences-hope to see you soon in an exciting project.

The makers of ‘Acharya’ are currently in talks with some other top league heroines. Kajal Aggarwal is said to be the front runner. The film is about a middle-aged naxalite-turned-social reformer who launches a fight against the system. Mahesh Babu was approached to play a crucial cameo role of a Naxalite but it could not materialize. It is now reported that Ram Charan will be playing the part.
He is also producing the film along with Niranjan Reddy of Matinee Entertainment.

After the superhit success of Shylock, Joby George to produce Bilal next

Joby George of Goodwill Entertainment has collaborated with Mammootty for films like ‘Kasaba’, ‘Abrahaminte Santhathikal’ and ‘Shylock’. The most recent one ‘Shylock’, which hit screens earlier this year, emerged as a big commercial success. The banner is now set to produce yet another Mammootty starrer — the much awaited ‘Bilal’.

‘Bilal’, which is the second part of Mammootty’s cult gangster film ‘Big B’, is gearing up to go on floors. Unni R is scripting the film and it will be directed by Amal Neerad. Bala, Mamta Mohandas and Manoj K Jayan, who all played crucial roles in the first part, have been retained in the sequel as well.

Shoot was supposed to begin by the end of this month but due to the Corona virus outbreak we hear that it might get delayed. Though ‘Big B’ was not a big success during its time of release, it went on to attain a cult status among the Malayali audience over the years. Naturally, expectations on ‘Bilal’ are sky-high.

A formal official announcement with full details regarding the cast and crew is likely to be made shortly.

Vijay earns a whopping Rs 130 crore as remuneration for Bigil and Master!

Nearly a month after the Income Tax (I-T) department conducted raids at Tamil star Vijay’s residence in connection to his earnings from ‘Bigil’, officials were once again seen in the actor’s house in Chennai last day. While there were speculations about another round of raids and investigation, department officials clarified that they were merely there to remove the prohibition order. They had to remove the seal of certain rooms, draws and lockers.

The officials have given a clean chit for Vijay and also confirmed that the star has earned a salary of Rs 50 crore for ‘Bigil’ and Rs 80 crore for ‘Master’. That makes it a whopping sum of Rs 130 crore for his last two films, which makes him probably the highest paid actor in Tamil cinema currently.

Last month, I-T officials had landed on the sets of ‘Master’ and investigated Vijay regrading supposed financial irregularities in connection with the blockbuster success of ‘Bigil’. Several properties belonging to the film’s producers AGS Entertainment, financier Anbu Chezhiyan and Vijay. The star was investigated continuously regarding tax evasion for 30 long hours before he was let off.

During the raids, unaccounted cash worth Rs 77 crore was taken from Anbu Chezhiyan’s properties. A large number of documents, promissory notes and post-dated cheques taken as collateral security were also recovered from him. Officials raided 38 premises of the AGS group across Chennai and Madurai. It is estimated that the concealment, in this case, is likely to exceed Rs 300 crore.

After Trance, Anwar Rasheed to team up with Dulquer Salmaan?

Anwar Rasheed’s hugely hyped film ‘Trance’ ended up garnering mixed response and could not reap the desired success. The director who is known for taking long gaps between his films might break that trend and direct a new film very soon. Buzz is that he is planning to do his next with Dulquer Salmaan. Names like Aishwarya Lekshmi and Manju Warrier are doing the rounds for the female lead’s part but nothing is confirmed as of yet.

Anwar Rasheed had earlier directed Dulquer Salmaan in ‘Ustad Hotel’, which proved to be a big booster in the actor’s career. The film was a big success and it even went on to win a couple of awards at the National level. Later, Dulquer and Anwar collaborated for ‘Bangalore Days’, which was produced by the latter. Since both their previous outings were hugely successful, expectations will be high when they reunite.

Dulquer Salmaan is currently shooting for his new Tamil film ‘Hey Sinamika’ directed by dance choreographer Brinda. In Malayalam, he has committed for films with directors Rosshan Andrrews and Joy Mathew. A straight Telugu film is also in the pipeline.

David in Malik is my most favorite among the characters I’ve played so far: Vinay Forrt

Vinay Forrt is very selective these days as he carefully chooses his projects. This year, he has got two big films coming up — ‘Malik’ and the Lijo Jose Pellissery directorial ‘Churuli’. The actor has pinned high hopes on both the films. In Malik, he plays a character named David. According to Vinay Forrt, David is his most favorite among the characters he has played so far.

‘Malik’ directed by Mahesh Narayanan is actually based on a true incident that occurred few years back in Kerala. The story revolves around a sensitive coastal area where there was a resistance against this constant threat of displacement of a minority community.

Fahadh Faasil plays the lead character of Sulaiman Malik who was like a leader of the community. Vinay Forrt’s character David is a grey shaded one and he believes that it is very different from what he has done before. Since the story goes through various timelines, both the actors will be seen in looks ranging from their mid 20s to 50s.

The cast also includes Nimisha Sajayan, Dileesh Pothan, Indrans, Sudhi Koppa, Chandhunath, yesteryear actress Jalaja, Maala Parvathy and many others. The film, which is being made on a budget of close to Rs 30 crores is scheduled to release in April.

In a recent interview, the producer revealed that shoot is expected to begin in September 2020.

Siva had requested Suriya and Gnanvel Raja who gave him the green signal to go ahead. Siva is currently working on the superstar film ‘Annatthe’, which is slated for Diwali release in November.

Siva’s film with Suriya is expected to be a rural based mass entertainer on the lines of the director’s blockbuster film ‘Viswasam’.
