Ajithkumar battles insomnia / Deepika `Cameo' schedule out

 Ajith reveals his battle with insomnia

In a chat with India Today, Ajith said, “I have trouble sleeping. I can't sleep well for more than four hours at a time. Even on flights, I try to rest as little as possible.” He mentioned that this has prevented him from spending much time watching movies and web series.

Ajith also candidly shared about family sacrifices, such as not being able to spend time with his children.

He said that he missed out on some family moments because of pursuing his dreams. Meanwhile, the support of his wife Shalini, was the main pillar of his life. Ajith said that his son recently started go-karting, but he doesn't plan on leading them in his own direction; he will fully support them in whatever field they choose.

'AK 64', Ajith’s next big cinema comeback

On the professional front, Ajith last delivered the film ‘Good Bad Ugly’. Following the success of the gangster drama, he is set to act in a new film 'AK64' with director Adhik Ravichandran. Fans are eagerly waiting for the film's official announcement. In addition, his insomnia, family relationships, and anticipated new films in the film industry are all currently the topics of discussion.

When asked whether staying grounded is his secret to success, Ajith Kumar explained that he is simply an actor, and it’s just another job for which he gets paid. He also shared that he doesn’t prefer being called a ‘superstar’.

To all those who say Deepika Padukone role in Atlee- Allu Arjun film has been shortened to a cameo , this is her schedule for the film and decide whether it is a cameo ;

Deepika Padukone is all set to dive into the world of AA22xA6 with a packed schedule. She will join the film’s set in late October, right after she finishes her work on Shah Rukh Khan’s King. Her schedule for the film is planned from October through December.

The initial part of her shoot will focus on establishing her character. November will be all about action, with massive, high-stakes sequences planned. This includes a major chase scene that Atlee is designing with a professional stunt team from South Korea.

Pawan Kalyan OG crash 70 % / Sukunya turns Nun / Rajini- Ajith white hair look for Maddy

 Sukunya is back to big screen. She has joined the crew of the film directed by Shaji Karun and starring Joju George. Sukunya had quit films after marriage toSridhar and settlled down in New Jersey. Now she has parted ways and come back to acting. She had been part of many hit Malaylam films. She married at the peak of her career. Her married life was plaugued by marow Sukunya plays a Nun in the Shaji Kailas film. The film is titled Varavu.

 The actor, who was last seen in Aap Jaisa Koi, stated in an interview with ETimes that he is "very comfortable in his shoes" and does not seek to present himself as younger than anyone. He considers Rajinikanth and Ajith Kumar to be major influences in retaining his natural look off-screen. He said, "Rajini looks himself off screen and on screen he is magic ". He also points out that Ajith is himself on and off screen and does not try to be younger than himself in public. He also said that Bollywood is now casting heroes and heroines whose age differences are not much.Madhavan has been keeping his Instagram buzzing with photoshoots of him showcasing his greys with grace and confidence, receiving endless admiration from fans.

Last seen in Vivek Soni's Aap Jaisa Koi opposite Fatima Sana Shaikh, Madhavan, up next has De De Pyaar De 2, Dhurandhar, and Adhirshtasaali in different stages of production.

As it happens with most massive star vehicles, Pawan Kalyan-starrer They Call Him OG witnessed a huge drop in its day 2 collections at domestic box office, after taking a thunderous start on Thursday, September 25. 

According to Sacnilk.com, OG garnered Rs 19.25 crore (nett) on Friday, witnessing a 70 per cent drop from its Thursday figures which stood at Rs 63.75 crore. A 50-60 percent drop is usual for most of these star vehicles in Telugu film industry, which experiences an unusual level of mania especially on its opening day. And with OG, the drop is all the more expected, considering how with its premiere shows alone, the film collected more than 20 crores in India.

A M Ratnam Kollywood TOAST Now Tollywood's ???

 At one time in Kollywood, the name A M Ratnam meant hits and viewers clapped when his banner name came on screen, His success ratio was high. He made films with Kamal Haasan, Pawan Kalyan Vijay, Ajith Kumar, Chiranjeevi, Vikram ,Prabhu Deva and Dhanush. Then we saw that Ajith gave him a three film deal so as to bail him out of a financial crisis. Whether it helped him or not is not known but trade figures show that these films were hits. Later I was told that his two sons – Jyoti and Ravi ‘s ambition to turn Director and hero and Dad funding them were reasons for his downfall. In fact, there is a Kerala connect to Rathnam’s success story. He acquired the rights of film God Father directed by Siddique- Lal and he cast N N Pillai itself in the Telugu version and Bhanumathi for role played by Philomina. He put Sukunya ( Telugu debut) for Kanaka and Jagapathi Babu for Mukesh. He took upon himself the Director’s mantle. It was a blockbuster hit that put Babu in the running. Tasting success, he took Malayalam film Mithunam and remade it with Jagapati Babu and Gautami and also directed it. It was a super flop.

When Ratnam turned Independent Producer after graduating from Vijayshanthi’s makeup man  to her executive Producer for her home Production, many traditional Producers ( ones who are second generation producers) looked at him with shock . Walking around with a small towel on his shoulder he was rolled into a production boy to the BOSS. His success created lot envy. With flops, they all had this look of `I Told You So’. I put him as jury member of our South Screen Awards . Then Editor Rauf Ahmed came to Chennai to meet the jury  members. He got introduced to the jury. After the meeting, he came out and asked me on what basis I had  put Rathnam as jury member representing the Producer’s category as he was a makeup man turned Producer, Rauf said that iconic names from Producer’s list were those that were in Bollywood awards jury member list.

I told him that from Kamal Haasan to many have worked in the banner of Ratnam and his hits total box office figures far outreached the so called iconic banners. I told him that I could have got the icons to give consent to be on the jury but they would not be coming for the screenings. In contrast Rathnam took his job seriously. Anyway in Rauf’s words- Harm has been done and cannot be undone.

I lost touch with Ratnam. Once me and a few Shirdi Bhakths visited the temple that he had built in Chennai suburbs.. Today in Telugu filmdom most talked about name is A M Ratnam. As producer of the film which has Pawan Kalyan as hero , he is facing a barrage of notices from people who have given him money for films that he started and never took off or one that got released but he did not pay back. Read on :

Hari Hara Veera Mallu has landed in unexpected trouble just a few days ahead of its release. A complaint has been filed against the film’s producer, AM Ratnam, with the Telangana State Film Chamber of Commerce by Asian Enterprises for recovery of dues amounting to Rs. 2.60 crore with interest for the refundable advance they paid for the movie ‘Oxygen.’

Another complaint was filed by Mahalaxmi Films against Sri AM Ratnam for recovery of Rs 90 lakhs for the movies ‘Muddula Koduku’ and ‘Bangaram.’ The chamber has requested the distributors of HHVM to cooperate in resolving the matter and help Asian Enterprises and Mahalaxmi Films in recovering their dues before the release of the HHVM in the Nizam region.

It remains to be seen how HHVM producer AM Rathnam will resolve the issue and ensure a smooth release for the movie on such short notice. Stay tuned to 123telugu.com for further updates. The website uploads a circular from Telangana Film Chamber.

If Rathnam clears his debts or still better makes profits, he will come back to Kollywood  and with this film , his son Jyoti Krishna as a Director would arrive. If not ? LETS BE POSITIVE

 

Aamir Khan - Vishnu Vishal and bonding with Ajith

 

Bollywood actor Aamir Khan recently flew down to Hyderabad to name Tamil actor Vishnu Vishal and badminton star Jwala Gutta’s baby girl. Born in April, the couple’s daughter has now been named Mira—a name that, as Vishnu shared on social media, stands for “unconditional love and peace.”

Sharing a family photo with the actor on his official X handle, Vishnu expressed his gratitude to Aamir Khan for flying down all the way to Hyderabad only to name his baby. The tweet might come as a surprise to many, but those who’ve been following Vishnu Vishal’s journey would know that this moment is the culmination of a unique and unexpected friendship, one that blossomed between two actors from very different worlds.

In multiple interviews over the past year, Vishnu has spoken with endearing honesty about how his relationship with Aamir Khan began, not through cinema, but through serendipity. “His friendship is something beyond my dreams,” he said in a previous interview with CE. “I’m an introvert, someone who thinks twice before initiating a conversation with a stranger. But I’ve reached a point where I can pull Aamir sir’s legs without any inhibitions."

It all started with what Vishnu calls an “accidental meetup," a chance encounter that Jwala Gutta had with Aamir at a function. From there, the veteran actor and director gradually became a part of the couple’s inner circle. “He slowly went on to become a close friend of our family within a year,” Vishnu revealed.

That bond was only strengthened during the Chennai floods in late 2023. Vishnu and Aamir both happened to be in Karapakkam—the actor caring for his mother, and the rains suddenly stranding them in the area. “The water levels started rising, and we got scared. That’s when I posted on X. Those who knew where I lived helped me get a boat,” Vishnu recalled in an interview with Suryan FM during the promotions of Lal Saalam. “Aamir Khan sir was in the area. I helped him in whatever way I could.”

The actor revealed that Aamir was meant to return to Mumbai that very day, after his mother’s treatment was completed. But with no way out, he ended up staying back for two days. “That’s when our friendship began,” Vishnu said. “Later, Ajith Kumar helped us with the transportation after we reached the main road by boat.”

Their relationship, however, has extended well beyond those trying days. Aamir has seen Vishnu’s films Ratsasan and FIR and offered warm praise. The Tamil actor, in turn, has spoken about learning from Aamir’s process, be it in acting, marketing, or discipline. “If I can adopt even a part of Aamir’s approach, it would help me make great films,” he had told News18.

And while there’s been buzz about the two collaborating professionally, Vishnu is in no rush. “Actually, I’ve been turning it down, as I want to relish our bond and not let business influence it,” he said. “But sir is keen on making a film with me. So, we might join hands at the right time, for the right script," he said in an interview with Cinema Express.

 Vishnu had posted a picture from that time with Aamir Khan and Ajith. The couple had also attended the wedding celebrations of Aamir Khan’s daughter Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare in Udaipur in January 2024.

 

Prabhu- Suresh Chandra to Produce Ajith Next / Tamil Hit- Flop Report

 Ajith’s next with Adhik Ravichandran as Director is to be produced by Prabhu in association with the actor’s manager Suresh Chandra. This is the latest buzz as the speculation about the Director has died down. Valai Pechu reports that right from paying hotel charges for director’s discussion to mediating talks with Anirudh, Suresh is doing it. Another report said that Sivaji Productions is to be Producer.  Ajith and Siavji Productions  collaborated on the film "Aasal" in 2010, and there were also plans for a film with director Gautham Menon, which didn't materialize. Additionally, there were discussions about Ajith potentially starring in a remake of Sivaji Ganesan's "Puthiya Paravai" under the Sivaji Productions banner, though this project didn't come to fruition. 

Adhik is son in law of Prabhu and the latter turning Producer is possible. Vijay  made two of his managers  PT Selvakumar and Jagadeesan as Producers. On these lines Suresh Chandra could be executive Producer of Ajith film. Apart from Sivaji Productions, family owns Sivaji Films the banner under which only Sivaji Ganesan acted.

Ram Kumar eldest brother of Prabhu and partner of Sivaji Productions was in the news for his son Dushyanth’s debt with a financier over a film that did not release. The issue went to court and hit headlines as the ancestral house owned by Sivaji Ganesan and now by Prabhu was ordered to be auctioned. Subsequently the aution notice was withdrawn . Whether the debt has been cleared is not known.

Adhik directed "Good Bad Ugly"  starring Ajith Kumar  was a commercial hit  earning ₹212 crores worldwide.  However trade circles say the film's financial performance is considered a flop as it failed to break even and incurred a loss due to high mounting costs.

Kamal with Chiyaan Director / Vels with Ajith / Geetha Kailasam Angammal'and Meenakshi Jayan Victoria Winners

 Two Top Superstars in todays headlines- Ajith and KH. First Ajith news- His next film is not by Mythiri Movie Makers but bu our own Vels Film International. Ashik who did Vidamuyurchi is tipped be repeated and AK takes home 65% of the total budget as his fees. 

Next is Vinveli Nayaga KH and though we were thinking about Anbu Arivu duo to do the next, there is a change of plans- S U Arun Kumar of Veera Dheeran Sooran the Chiyaan film is to do a rustic thriller and a quickie to be bankrolled by RKFI.

Tamil film 'Angammal' has won Best Film at the 2025 edition of the New York Indian Film Festival (NYIFF), Geetha Kailasam, who is renowned filmmaker K Balachander’s daughter-in-law, was the first choice for the role of Angammal. “We chose Geetha Kailasam after watching her performance in Navarasa, Sarpatta Parambarai and Natchathiram Nagargiradhu,” Director Radhakrishnan said. “She was very natural, and the screen presence she commanded was really impressive in all her above performances.”. Radhakrishnan’s second feature after the Malayalam-language Ave Maria (2018) is set in the mid-1990s. Angammal is based on acclaimed Tamil writer Perumal Murugan’s short story Kodithuni.

 Vipin Radhakrishnan's sophomore directorial venture follows a son's attempts at making his free spirited mother wear a blouse. Set against a rural backdrop in Tamil Nadu, the story does a pretty good job at establishing the dynamic between Angammal and Pavalam, the different life that her son wishes to lead and disgusted of the old ways in his village. Driven by the excuse of his girlfriend's family visit for an arranged love marriage proposal, the story mostly follows the rift that occurs between the mother and son as the former sticks on to what she desires to wear.

Meenakshi Jayan has won the Best Actress award in the Asian New Talent category at the 27th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF) Golden Goblet Awards. She was honoured for her role in the Malayalam film Victoria, which was also the only Indian film selected for competition at this year’s festival, which concluded on Sunday. Directed by debutant Sivaranjini J, Victoria tells the story of a young beautician from Angamaly, a small town in Kerala, who is planning to run away with her Hindu boyfriend, defying her Catholic parents’ wishes. However, her plans take an unexpected turn when a neighbour’s rooster, meant for a church festival, disrupts her day. What follows is a mix of emotional, personal, and spiritual challenges, all playing out over the course of a single day.

Excerpts from a boatman ;

‘That’s Meer Ghat, associated with Meerabai. That’s where Shabana Azmi’s English film was going to be shot… but they were chased away,’ said Gorakh referring to Deepa Mehta’s Water. ‘Why?’ ‘Arrey, it was on a sensitive subject – Indian widows. There is a widow house right there… below Ganapathi Guest House. You have to keep in mind local sentiments.’

‘It’s only a film and eventually they shot it… in Sri Lanka’, we countered, defending artistic freedom. ‘Hardly surprising, Ravana’s evil lair! Who says not to shoot here – Arjun Pandit, Yamla Pagla Deewana, Laga Chunari Mein Daag were all filmed at Man Mandir ghat. That’s the boat in which Ram Teri Ganga Maili was shot. There’s Pradeep Kumar’s riverside mansion. But anything ulta pulta…’ Gorakh shook his head.

Heera Blog on AK : Weapon to hit at Political Masters

 

What Did Padma Bhushan Ajith Kumar do to Heera his then GF and that too 27 years back ? It would not have mattered but somebody thinks by posting this it would embrass those who awarded him the honour. Ajith and family image is not one bit going to be damaged and we have seen that in many cases before. Blog appeared in January this year and no one noticed it coz she was not anywhere near the limelight or in any way her blog was in the viewing list of netizens. Now somebody has picked it up and guess what her site crashed. Once it is back, Heera will have a captive audience and probably shift to Instagram.

Without saying Ajith name she wrote that he had come to her house in a state of confusion and she took him under her wings and nutured him . She sought roles for him. Without mentioning the names, she has reacted to the allegations that Ajith had made against her 27 years ago. Thala, in an interview, had allegedly claimed: "We lived together, I really liked her, but now everything has changed; she is not the same person anymore. In fact, she is a drug addict". Post this break-up, Ajith met Shalini on the sets of Amarkalam in 1999, and married her in the year 2000.
n the blog post, the yesteryear actress has claimed that she was betrayed and abandoned the said actor, after which an intermediary had arranged a meeting at a studio. She was still in shock and "crying inconsolably, pleading for an honest answer from the actor."

In the post she said: "As a young adult, I was blindsided by the scale of orchestrated cruelty- betrayal, character assassination- labelling me a cheater and a drug addict, smear campaigns and public humiliation at the hands of an actor with whom I was in a long-term relationship, known to the public. She adds: "The actor was ruthlessly cold, not saying much; he uttered, 'I am going to marry a woman who looks like a servant; nobody will look at her, and I can have sex with anyone I want."

Heera then accused Ajith of faking surgeries and helping him when he was bedridden after an accident. She explained: "My young mind could not comprehend how the person who landed lost at my doorstep-I took under my compassionate wings-included, supported, protected, encouraged and cheered-became antagonistic overnight. And how I went from standing for days and nights on end at the actor's bedside in a hospital, caring for him (including changing his bedpans) as he recovered from "supposed" spine surgery to him flipping the switch-abruptly shutting off with no access or communication. Ajith had undergone three major surgeries early in his career due to which he was in bed rest for 1.5 years. Mostly recently in 2024, a minor medical procedure to treat a swollen nerve connecting his ear to the brain (not a brain surgery.

"The actor's criminality -slander, libel, gaslighting society and grooming his fans for violence and contemptible lies designed to promote unforgivable attacks on my dignity, integrity, sanity, and safety made me spiral into despair, making me want to commit suicide," the former actress added.

Bison makers let out a SpotifySpotify playlist picture. The playlist, which surfaced on Reddit and Instagram on April 11, reportedly featured a profile picture showing a couple kissing under a blue moon. The photo resembles Anupama and Dhruv Vikram. But there are doubts whether anybody would keep a personal kissing picture on a public playlist. Plus, there are also speculations that this must be a deliberate attempt to bring publicity to their upcoming Tamil film named “Bison.” The film is being directed by Mari Selvaraj. Some say it could be a picture from their movie.Anupama Parameswaran, on the other hand, is readying for the release of her Telugu film, Paradha.
