In a significant development reinforcing celebrity rights in the digital era, actor NTR has secured legal protection from the Delhi High Court against the unauthorised use of his name, image, and likeness across digital platforms. The actor, popularly known as the Man of the Masses, approached the court citing widespread misuse of his identity on social media and e-commerce platforms. According to the petition, such unauthorised exploitation not only caused commercial harm but also posed a serious threat to his reputation, particularly in an age dominated by artificial intelligence, deepfakes, and manipulated digital content. Taking note of the concerns raised, the Delhi High Court treated the plea under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021. The court directed concerned intermediaries to promptly remove, disable, or restrict access to infringing content upon receipt of a valid complaint.   Reacting to the order, NTR expressed gratitude to the judiciary, stating, “I thank the Hon’ble Delhi High Court for granting a protective order safeguarding my personality rights in today’s digital environment.” He also acknowledged the efforts of his legal team, including Supreme Court Advocates Dr. Balajanaki Srinivasan and Dr. Alka Dakar, and the team at Rights & Marks, for their role in securing the relief. The ruling reinforces the growing judicial recognition of personality and publicity rights in India, underscoring that unauthorised commercial exploitation of an individual’s name, image, or likeness—particularly when it risks reputational harm—will invite legal consequences.

Producers, exhibitors and distributors will remember 2025 as a year that did not yield big dividends to big action spectacles and star vehicles despite their price tag and star attraction. Here is the list of biggest disasters of the year 2025. Game Changer: Game Changer suffered from "pacing issues" and a dated feel. The movie starring Ram Charan in the direction of Shankar was pitted as his biggest ticket to strengthen his Pan-India stardom post RRR. But it ended being an embarrassing disaster for him like Vinaya Vidheya Rama for Pongal.  Akhanda 2: Thaandavam:  The year’s biggest shock came from the two giants - Nandamuri Balakrishna and Boyapati Srinu. Akhanda 2 was criticized for being "over-the-top without soul," leading to massive losses. The movie coming from a formidable combination that gave three big hits failed to entertain audiences.  WAR 2: NTR and Hrithik Roshan coming together for the first time and YRF venturing into Pan-India production with War 2 and trying to take big leap into South Indian market met with huge losses and rejection from Day 1. The movie effectively paused YRF Spy Universe aggressive expansion. Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1: Years of production delays and "unpolished VFX" hampered Pawan Kalyan’s period epic. The film’s astronomical budget made it one of the most significant disasters in recent Tollywood history. Kingdom: Vijay Deverakonda teaming up with Jersey director Gowtam Tinnanuri ended as a huge dud as the big budget film lacked any soul and perfect pacing. It looked like an extended one part that has been dragged into two parts forcefully for Pan-India price tag.  Ghaati: Big comeback vehicle of Anushka Shetty into mass action genre failed in all departments to ignite any sort of admiration. Audiences rejected this Krish directorial without any trace after the first show upon release.  Also Read: 2025 Round-up: Hits and Blockbusters of the Year  Mass Jathara: Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja continued to his poor run at the box office with heavily delayed Mass Jathara. While the film tried to play to Ravi Teja's strenghts, it just ended up being a bloated mess of a film with nothing working in its favor.  Thammudu & Robinhood: Nithiin saw two of his projects fall flat as audiences rejected "formulaic tropes." Thammudu in particular was a major blow, failing to recover even 30% of its production costs. Bhairavam & Odela 2:  High-intensity action dramas starring Bellamkonda Sreenivas, and Tamannaah respectively failed to find an audience. Critics cited "tonal inconsistencies" as the primary reason for their quick exits. Arjun S/O Vyjayanthi: Despite heavy marketing, this film struggled with visibility. Audiences preferred the year's smaller, more innovative hits over the traditional action buster attempt. Telusu Kada: The movie had an interesting premise and good marketing as well. But the movie got panned for being too lop-sided and presenting one-way arguments rather than any "substantial content".  Andhra King Taluka: Rounding out the misses, this film was largely ignored by the public. Despite interesting premise, the lack of a "theatrical hook" led to substantial deficits for the producers. Also Read: 2025 Round-up: Average Performers of the Year  Laila: Vishwaksen got panned for this film as it lacked any ounce of decency. This is not a miss, this is an abomination of senses and people rejected it outright.  Disclaimer: The news article is written based on information shared by various sources.

The year 2025 has presented itself with huge lessons to film industry. Some films did attract audiences but after a point they did not end up being such remarkable grossers that exhibitors and distributors expected them to be. Here's the list of such films that ended up as Average grossers at the box office.  They Call Him OG: Pawan Kalyan’s gangster drama delivered the year’s biggest opening day but struggled with high distribution costs. Despite high collections, the "massive acquisition price" pushed it into the "average/losing" category for many distributors. The Great Indian Pre-Wedding Show: Starring Thiruveer, this quirky rural comedy was lauded by critics for its "Srikakulam flavor" and "unforced humor." It performed steadily as a sleeper average-to-hit, though its niche appeal limited a massive breakout. Kishkindhapuri: Bellamkonda Sreenivas found a commercial success after six years with this horror-thriller. While not a record-breaker, its steady theatrical run and low-budget recovery earned it a "plus" verdict. Also Read: 2025 Round-up: Hits and Blockbusters of the Year  Daaku Maharaaj: Nandamuri Balakrishna’s mass entertainer performed well in rural centers but struggled to recover its heavy budget in urban markets. It remains a staple for the mass audience but finished as an average venture. Kuberaa: The Dhanush-King Nagarjuna Akkineni multi-starrer was a critical darling for its unique narrative structure by writer-director Sekhar Kammula. However, it fell short of being a "hit" due to a heavy budget that proved difficult to fully recoup theatrically. The Girlfriend & Sundarakanda: Both films found a second life on OTT platforms. While they didn't ignite the theatrical box office, their quality content ensured they were respectable average performers.
