Ajith still waiting for a producer for his next?
Ajith Kumar, one of the biggest stars of Tamil Cinema, has delivered a blockbuster with Good Bad Ugly last year. But he had been busy with his racing ambition over the past year and he did not announce his next film, officially. It had been confirmed that GBU director Adhik Ravichandran will direct the film but no announcement yet. It had become a huge topic of discussion among his fans, Industry insiders that the actor has been quoting huge salary and hence, it has become unaffordable for producers to plan the movie with him. Apparently, he had been demanding good share in profits if he had to reduce from his quoted amount, as well. Hence, producers have been not willing to invest so much on the project. Looking at Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth gearing up to come together and adjust their remuneration for the film, many Tamil industry insiders are unable to figure out why Ajith is not listening to reality. On the other hand, it is reported by few sources that the movie shoot will start in March and the producer is ready to invest the budget. Ajith has apparently given assurance to complete the project on-time as per promise. But few insiders state that looking at his ambition to continue racing, producers are hesitant, too. Well, Mankatha release for Republic Day weekend has shown how his fans and Tamil people are ready to celebrate his film in theatres. Somehow, the budget and remuneration have been problematic to go forward, suggest reports. We have to wait and see, what Ajith Kumar team will announce in coming days.

Kaithi 2: Dilli glimpse to soon/?
Karthi and Lokesh Kanagaraj have kick started a highly appreciated Cinematic Universe with Kaithi. Now, the long-awaited expansion of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe has finally taken a massive step forward. It is stated that Kaithi 2 censor has been completed as Dilli and announcement glimpse will release soon. A leaked censor certificate reveals that a 30-second video titled Dilli Teaser has been granted an 'U' certificate by the CBFC. For the uninitiated, Dilli is the iconic character played by Karthi, whose journey from a prisoner to a savior formed the backbone of the original film. The fact that the certificate was applied for by Dream Warrior Pictures, the production house behind the first part, confirms that the world of Kaithi is officially reopening. Speculation is rife that this glimpse could be a surprise title announcement or a specialized intro video, similar to how Lokesh Kanagaraj introduced Vikram and Leo. Interestingly, some reports suggest the sequel might be titled simply as Dilli, emphasizing the character's legendary status within the LCU. While director Lokesh is currently occupied with his upcoming project with Allu Arjun, AA23, this censor update suggests that the team is ready to keep the LCU momentum alive. With Anirudh Ravichander likely handling the score and Karthi returning to his most raw avatar, the 30-second glimpse is expected to drop any moment, potentially setting a new record for digital views.

Kalki 2 to resume shoot from this month end
Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan starrer Kalki 2, sequel to sci-fi epic Kalki 2898 AD, is gearing up to go on sets from February month end. As per the reports, the makers have locked the script and are eager to take the movie on floors from this month end. They have completed extensive pre-production work and locked dates of Big B and Kamal Haasan. Reports suggest that Prabhas will complete the two week schedule planned to start the film and then, he will re-join Fauji sets for a short while. Later, he will continue to shoot for Spirit. As Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan dates would be heard to secure, Prabhas made this adjustment to fulfil his commitment. The legendary actors' part has been increased post Deepika Padukone's ousting from the sequel. Sai Pallavi is said to have replaced her but the official announcement has not yet been made. As off now, the makers are working on shooting the scenes on the three main men and then, they will go for leading lady portions. Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who said to have asked for continuous dates for his film from Prabhas has decided to wait till April end, for his undevoted attention. Recent injury for Prabhas did not deter the actor from accepting to join the sets of Kalki 2, in the direction of Nag Ashwin.

Does Allu Arjun put forth unrealistic demands?
Allu Arjun has become one of the biggest stars of Indian Cinema, with Pushpa 2. Now, he is facing allegations of putting forth unrealistic demands in front of brands whenver he goes to shoot. A brand strategist Kaveri, in a podcast, stated that she met Allu Arjun for an endorsement and his team put forth 42 do's and dont's. According to her, Allu Arjun has a team of managers with manager upon another manager as an hierarchy. Also, she stated that people should not look directly into his eyes, should not shake his hands, should not look directly talk to him. And she stated that he had a huge amount of entourage and they are all very strict. As the video has gone viral, Allu Arjun fans started picking up other parts trying to disprove what Kaveri stated. Many started talking about encounters with the star and his grounded, down-to-earth behavior. While stars do carry a team and many people to manage their personal and professional schedules. We cannot determine if all of these rules are real or not, but there will be preferences and personal level points that actors like to put forth. While these demands do seem unrealistic, Allu Arjun got a name in beginning of his career as easy to approach actor who is ready for good scripts. Now, if these stories about his demands are true, it looks like star status did change him. If not, or if there is any sort of over protective nature shown by team members of Allu Arjun, then the actor should work towards changing that perception. In any case, currently, he is busy with Atlee's project AA22*A6. Disclaimer: The news article is written based on information shared by various sources.

Mega Swap: Pawan Kalyan UBS for Ram Charan Peddi
Mega Family stars seem to swap the release dates according to insider buzz. The reports suggest that Pawan Kalyan starrer Ustaad Bhagat Singh, directed by Harish Shankar and produced by Mythri Movie Makers is set for a worldwide release on 26th March 2026, in place of already scheduled Ram Charan's Peddi. The change comes as Ram Charan and his wife, Upasana Konidela, recently welcomed twins—a baby boy and a baby girl—on January 31, 2026. Earlier, Charan had informed director Buchi Babu Sana and the Peddi team that he would be unavailable for at least three to four weeks after the delivery to spend time with his family. While Charan gave extra dates before the delivery to finish the film, some shoot delays occurred. Director Buchi Babu Sana reportedly asked for more time to perfect important sequences in the second half of the movie to deliver the best quality product. Charan is now expected to return to the sets in March to finish the remaining portions. So, Mythri Movie Makers, who are also presenting Peddi, have decided that releasing Ustaad Bhagat Singh will be perfect for that weekend. Currently, they have fast tracked the post production works to finish the film in time and start promotions for the release date. Official confirmation will arrive in few days, it seems.

Vishwambhara to clash with Jailer 2 release?
Megastar Chiranjeevi starrer Vishwambhara has been in production from past two years and the movie VFX work is going on from past one year. After the release of the first teaser, the makers had to re-work on VFX and hence, from past one year, the extensive amount of post production works are going on in different studios. Recently, UV Creations, the producers, have announced that they are planning to release this year once the VFX works come to an end. They haven't announced a date even at the Couple Friendly Movie pre-release press meet. But the buzz states that Vishwambhara might clash with Jailer 2 in July. Even a June date is being considered but the makers do not want to rush the VFX work and as the movie carries huge amount of investment, they are hoping to deliver a powerful film to recover the costs. Jailer 2, on the other hand, is being planned as the biggest event film for Superstar Rajinikanth with huge number fo cameos. Mithun Chakraborthy, Shah Rukh Khan, Vijay Sethupathi, are part of the film with first film cameos Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar re-appearing on screen. Nelson wants to deliver biggest ever grosser for Tamil Cinema with this massive film after coming close to the mark with Jailer. Well, Vishwambhara also has such huge stakes sans cameos. The clash might not be an option for both the teams but both cannot go till Dasara as the stakes are too high to push for even longer dates. Let's wait for official confirmation from the movie makers about the release plans as SRK portions of Jailer 2 are yet to be shot, say reports.

Vijay advises Jana Nayagan team to not drag censor issue?
Thalapathy Vijay has announced that Jana Nayagan is his last film and he would not act in any other film, at least, in near future. KVN Productions have come up to produce the film but it has run into censor issues prior to release. The team have moved to court against Censor officials for not awarding certificate. They stated that the censor team have stated that they will get U/A but then got the communication that they need to go to revising committee. KVN Productions have gone to court stating that as they have locked 9th January release date, censors intentionally are delaying their film. Single Judge bench granted them U/A. But Censor office moved to High Court and they canceled the Single judge direction and asked single bench to re-examine the case. Now, Vijay has asked KVN productions to not drag on the issue while he initially thought going to Court will help them solve the issue quicker. He asked them to request censors to finish process quickly. Reports suggest that he asked producers to withdraw petition and let censor officials do their due process. Producers have to pay a compensation of more than Rs.50 crores and lose almost 150 crores if delays continue to drag on. Hence, even they have come to this decision and we have to wait and see, how they will move forward. Anirudh Ravichander has composed music for the film and Mamitha Baiju is playing leading lady with Pooja Hegde as hero's love interest. H. Vinoth has directed the film and it is a remake of Nandamuri Balakrishna's Bhagavanth Kesari. If Revising Committee and censors act fast, movie could release in February otherwise it might get delayed till the end of TN Assembly elections 2026, that is, June, piling on the losses of producers.

Is Spirit hype taking over Fauji?
Prabhas has been working on multiple projects at the same time post underwhelming box office returns of Saaho and Radhe Shyam. He chose to act in multiple films at the same time and Adipurush, Salaar, Kalki 2898 AD released with several delays but in short time. He started Fauji along with long shoots of The Raja Saab. After two years gap, The Raja Saab released and failed miserably at the box office. While Salaar and Kalki managed to be his hits, others four films ended up being disasters at the box office after historical success of Baahubali frachise. Currently, he started shooting for Spirit while Fauji is still under production. Mythri Movie Makers have nominally revealed in few interviews that most of Fauji shoot is still pending. But the concentration of all audiences and fans has been shifted to Spirit, as director - producer Sandeep Reddy Vanga locked the release date for the movie as 5th March 2027. On the other hand, Fauji started shoot two years back but still it is not nearing completion by any means. On the other hand, updates and rumours about for Spirit are going viral. Like Prabhas is working hard by standing in hot sun for two hours and Don Lee update for 1st March 2026 are going on. Even speculations about Gopichand playing a prominent role in Spirit is also going on. With such hyper active promotional strategy about Spirit seems to be undermining Fauji, directed by Hanu Raghavapudi. Let's see how Mythri Movie Makers will answer to these questions.

Akhil Akkineni in the race for Anil Ravipudi next?
Anil Ravipudi is one of the most sought after directors in Telugu Cinema has he delivered 9 out 9 hits till date. And his recent two films - Sankrantiki Vasthunnam and Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, have been huge grossers despite being regional films and that too with Senior stars like Venkatesh and Chiranjeevi. He interacted with media today and stated that his 10th film will also release for Sankranti 2027. He won't leave the slot and will begin with announcement promotions, pretty soon. Currently, huge speculations are going on about his next film as he is on a red hot hit streak. Akhil Akkineni could be in the race say new reports. Simultaneously, reports indicate that Pawan Kalyan and Venkatesh are also being considered for this festival entertainer. Given Ravipudi's history of delivering blockbusters with senior stars like Venkatesh and Chiranjeevi, the possibility of a collaboration with PSPK or a reunion with "Venky Mama" remains strong. While Pawan Kalyan fans hope that a film with Anil Ravipudi will settle all box office scores, they are skeptical about PSPK giving his full-time for a demanding director like Anil Ravipudi. On the other hand, Venkatesh needs to finish Adarsha Kutumbam in Trivikram Srinivas direction to think about his next. Akhil Akkineni post Lenin, which is slated for 1st May 2026 release, could be looking for a huge blockbuster for Sankranti season which helped his father Nagarjuna - Soggade Chinni Nayana and brother Naga Chaitanya - Bangarraju, to re-establish themselves at the box office.

During the time, he worked hard to transform. He finally acquired the physique and joined the shoot recently. There have been rumors about NTR not being happy with the output and script. Prashanth Neel is said to be more or less getting pushed to make a film that is far from his earlier vision to align with collective ideas of NTR's team. Now, the shoot is reported to be halted by the sources. Due to NTR's injury and health issues, the actor requested the team for a break to re-join. Sources also state that Prashanth Neel has decided to finish the shoot with other actors where NTR is not needed, so that, their dates won't be wasted. Even though Mythri Movie Makers, the producers, have decided to bring the movie for Sankranti 2027, they are unable to really decide when the movie shoot will progress smoothly and release the film.
