Tollywood

In these 10 days, the makers will round up quite a few sequences including a fight sequence with Allu Arjun. The superstar is currently donning long hair for this sequence. A fanclub of Allu Arjun shared a still from the sets which shows Allu being showered with flower petals and he greets his fans through the sunroof of his car.

Today, there is a clear demarcation in the mind of the audience about what they want to watch in theatres, because let's face it, going to the cinema is not a cakewalk because it involves some effort and then there are the hidden costs of fuel, parking, food and beverage, and not to forget the mind-numbing traffic and pollution.

Savouring the film's success, Rashmika said: "Looking at the massive love and appreciation being showered on 'Varisu' really warms my heart and makes me feel so grateful!" Directed by Vamshi Paidipally, Rashmika's performance in the songs 'Ranjithame' and 'Jimikki Ponnu' has been particularly appreciated by critics and audiences alike.

Speaking to the American media, Ram Charan said: "It was not part of our goal to come to LA, but we landed up here. So we are taking it as it goes. Of course, we want to experience the great directors of LA and Hollywood, and I want them to also experience us as actors and share cultural ideas and stories between the East and the West."

Needless to say, the actor was bowled over by how the director put the film together with the editing and the spellbinding VFX. Ram Charan told film critic David Poland, "My mind was blown and we never knew the same when we were shooting it".

Rajamouli shared a string of pictures on Instagram from his meeting with Spielberg along with Golden Globe-winning 'RRR' music composer M.M. Keeravani. The first shows Rajamouli all excited with both hands on his face on meeting the maestro.

Sharing screenshots on social media of several media reports which claimed Shruti Haasan has "mental problems" and is undergoing treatment, she wrote: "Ok so here's the thing, misinformation like this and the over dramatisation or flippant handling of such subjects is what makes people afraid to talk about mental health Guess what? It doesn't work."

The rumour mills worked overnight after Aiswarya shared a photo of hers with Arjun along with a love emoji. The photo of the actors became viral, with fans of both Aiswarya and Arjun going gaga over it. Aishwarya, however, came out with a post on Instagram stating that they are just friends and not in love and that the picture was shared on social media not to make a relationship announcement.

The Golden Globe award for Best Original Song has heightened the expectations of not just S.S. Rajamouli and his team but the entire Tollywood. RRR for Oscars has been one of the top trends for the last couple of days and the fans of Junior NTR and Ram Charan are rooting for the epic action drama to bag the Academy awards.

Coming as they do from two of Kollywood's top stars, their movie releases promise an epic box-office clash in Tamil Nadu during the Pongal festival holidays. Earlier in the day, Vijay unveiled the Tamil trailer of 'Pathaan' on his social media handle and conveyed his best wishes.
