Tollywood filmmaker Ravi Babu, known for bringing a different style to horror and suspense thrillers, is preparing for an interesting new project. Films like Anasuya, Amaravathi, Avunu and Avunu 2 established his reputation for keeping audiences hooked with frightening moments. After his recent violent film Razor failed to make the expected impact, the director is now planning a return with his favourite horror genre.This time, Ravi Babu is stepping beyond Telugu cinema and joining hands with Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut. The National Award winning actress, who has proved her versatility across different genres, is set to headline a full fledged horror thriller titled Scary Picture. The project has already grabbed attention because of this unusual combination of a Telugu director and a Bollywood actress.Scary Picture is being produced by Daggubati Rana and Suresh Babu under the prestigious Suresh Productions banner. Reports suggest that Rana was impressed with Ravi Babu's horror concept and helped bring Kangana on board for the project. The combination has raised expectations, especially among audiences who enjoy fresh ideas and experimental filmmaking.The makers have officially announced Scary Picture as a Hindi film, while details about a Telugu version are yet to be revealed. The horror thriller is expected to reach theatres sometime in 2027, although an exact release date is yet to be confirmed. With Ravi Babu's experience in horror filmmaking and Kangana's powerful screen presence, audiences are curious to see what kind of frightening experience Scary Picture will deliver. &nbsp;

Ramayana has crossed the Rs 1,000 crore mark worldwide within eight days. However, there is still no clear answer to how much the film needs to recover its investment. There has been a lot of discussion about the film's budget. The Rs 4,000 crore figure includes both parts along with release and promotional expenses, as Yash clarified earlier. The first part alone is estimated to have cost around Rs 2,000 crore. However, the makers have not officially revealed its individual budget. Trade estimates suggest that the film might need to gross around Rs 5,000 crore worldwide through theatrical business alone to break even. But this is an estimate, not an official target from the producers. Interestingly, producer Namit Malhotra is looking at the two films as one project. He recently indicated that even if the first part falls short of expectations, the second part could make up for it. While crossing Rs 1,000 crore is a major achievement, the financial picture is still not clear. How much does Ramayana actually need to recover, and can the two-part project justify such a massive investment?&nbsp;- Ashish

Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash's Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is setting new records at the box office. Now all eyes are on the film's second part, Ramayana Part 2.According to the latest, it is coming out that Ramayana Part 2 has already completed 60% of the shoot. Ranbir Kapoor, speaking to scribes, shared, “We have already shot about 60 per cent of Part 2. A lot of VFX work, a lot of motion-capture work is left because the second part is going to be more grand than the first part. It has a lot more CG characters, like Hanuman and the whole vanar sena. A lot more details need to be worked on,”He revealed, “See, if we shot Ramayana in a real jungle, the world would look very real, but maybe that’s not what we’re looking for. We want our world to look more enhanced, better than the real forest. For the forests that Ram and Lakshman are walking in to fight demons, realistic trees in the jungle may not give us that larger-than-life experience, with giant monsters attacking and our characters swinging from one tree to the other. Where is realism in that? There is no realism in that. You are giving a fantasy world to the audience. So why be a stickler for realistic-looking leaves or branches? It’s just a different medium of expressing yourself,”Namit Malhotra, the producer, said that the film's second part will be released in 2028. He said, &nbsp;“That extra year is what I genuinely believe we need to do justice to a film of this size.”-- Nirvighn Nandivada

Tollywood is currently under the impression that films with a Telangana flavour will make movie lovers throng theatres.

In the wake of Sharwanand's Bhogi and Priyadarshi's Idupu Kayitham racing for release, the recent results are sending signals to the upcoming films and those who are planning films with Telangana backdrop.Balagam which highlighted Telangana village culture in 2023 turned out to be a blockbuster. Riding on the wave, Nani's Dasara with Singareni coalmines backdrop also entered into Rs 100crs. Mem Famous with the local guys punches entered into the safe zone.However, Pareshan presented by Rana failed at the box office. All the four came up with different results though with the similar backdrop. Razakar based on Telangana history turned out tobe a commercial failure. Pottel wich had patel domination and fight for studies, though got good content, didnot do well at the box office.Tillu and Tillu Square with Hyderabadi slang did well. Raju weds Rambai based on Illandu real incidents got good soild collections. Dhandora which highlighted the case discrimination failed in the theatres though got good response from the critics. Champion which tried to narrate Telangana history also failed at the box office.Same is the case with Nani's The Paradise. This shows that Telangana accent along is not enough for success and it should have proper emotions blended wwith entertainment.Raviteja's nephew Madhav's Maremma with Telangana village backdrop and traditions disappointed at the box office. Sharwanand is testing his luck with Bhogi and Priyadarshi is testing his luck with Idupu Kayitham on 11 December . It has tobe seen how these films perform at the box office.- Nirvighn Nandivada

Young and talented actor and passionate producer Rakesh Varre is coming up with his new film “Maya Lady”. Rakesh Varre plays the lead role and is also producing the film under his Crazy Ants Productions banner. In the past, he earned appreciation for backing content-driven films such as “Evvarikee Cheppoddhu” and “Peka Medalu” under the same banner. Now, he is set to bring another interesting film to audiences with “Maya Lady”. The film is directed by Prasankar, with Madhumitha Sarcar playing the female lead. “Maya Lady” is set for a grand worldwide theatrical release on the 13th of this month. In a recent interview, hero and producer Rakesh Varre shared several highlights about the film.The title “Maya Lady” is apt for the story. The heroine has an edge in the narrative, but this is not a female-centric film. We chose this title because it suits the story. We could have also named the film based on my character, but after watching the movie, audiences will agree that “Maya Lady” is the right title. It is a romantic family entertainer with an interesting element in the story. A strong turning point arrives around 30 minutes before the interval, followed by another interesting element at the interval. By then, the film takes an intriguing turn and gives audiences a thrilling experience. The story begins on a normal note, reaches an extraordinary level and eventually returns to a normal space.I like romantic films, love stories and family entertainers. These are also the kind of films I enjoyed watching with my family in theatres. We watched and enjoyed films such as “Preminchukundam Raa”, “Bommarillu” and “Ninne Pelladatha” together. I am trying to make similar films for audiences, while ensuring that every story has something fresh. Audiences appreciated the unique elements in my earlier films “Peka Medalu” and “Evvarikee Cheppoddhu”. “Maya Lady” also has that kind of variation, while maintaining a commercial appeal.There is currently a trend of intense action films and violent entertainers. As a hero, I have two options: either make the kind of films I personally enjoy or follow the current trend and do intense action movies. Once I achieve commercial success as a hero, there is nothing wrong with occasionally exploring such films. I also like action dramas. When I acted in “Jithender Reddy”, some people felt that the film was beyond what was expected of someone my age. Once you achieve success, you can experiment with different kinds of roles. First, I need to establish a strong identity as a hero and ensure that my films generate good business. A blockbuster can make all of that possible. I am working towards that goal, and I believe “Maya Lady” will give me that success.I can act in films produced by other production houses, but the process often takes a lot of time. Even if they like a story, they sometimes ask for something that is trending at the time. After the success of “Little Hearts”, many people wanted to make similar stories. If everyone keeps making the same kind of films, that genre will also become repetitive. My role as Sethupathi in “Baahubali” gave me good recognition, but that film itself took a long time to happen. If I delay things further, there is a possibility of being limited to character roles. That is why I am focusing on continuing as a hero. Recently, I also played a good character in a film featuring the combination of Gopichand and Sankalp Reddy.Since I am the producer as well, I take extra care when it comes to the story. From a production perspective, I try to make the film at the most economical cost possible without compromising on quality. I also personally oversee the marketing. We have already closed a few business deals for the film. Looking at the industry today, theatrical and OTT business have reduced considerably compared to the past. The investments made in my previous films were recovered, so those projects can be considered safe ventures.Madhumitha plays two characters, Roopa and Aasha, in this film. She has delivered a very energetic performance. I personally like the character of Roopa. The trailer shows only a small glimpse of her role, and audiences will enjoy it much more in theatres. Aasha is a softer character. Vishal Chandrashekhar’s music will be one of the major highlights of our film. He liked the story as soon as he heard it and immediately suggested that we begin work on the music.We have been planning the release for nearly a month, so we have managed to secure a decent number of theatres. Dil Raju garu is distributing the film across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. We are planning a compact release rather than going for a massive scale. In the US too, we are identifying locations with a significant Telugu-speaking population and releasing the film in those areas. Initially, 13 films were expected to release this week, but a few have now postponed their releases. Around seven films are now set to arrive. We are confident about the content of our film. No matter how many films release together, we believe that a movie with strong content will find its audience and stand its ground.

Idupu Kayitham Teaser Promises Love, Comedy and Family Drama

In a major shocker, Young Tiger NTR's new film Jai lava Kusa pirated video clippings have gone viral in social media. These scenes have reportedly pirated from Overseas where the film screened yesterday.&nbsp;

Of late, piracy menace is affecting every film. Although celebs and film lovers are requesting the pirates not to practice such an evil cult, none of their appeals were paid heed by them. It's high time immense policing had done and stringent actions against the pirates had been taken up.&nbsp;

Jai Lava Kusa makers, in the meanwhile, called for all fans to send piracy links to the them so that they would take further action against pirates.&nbsp;

As we know, NTR has done three contrasting roles in JLK. Rashi Khanna and Nivetha Thomas have done opposite to him. Bobby has directed the movie on Kalyan Ram's NTR Arts.

Jai Lava Kusa Affected by Piracy!

Piracy Shock to Jai Lava Kusa

<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Review, What&rsquo;s Behind:</h2>
Junior NTR&rsquo;s triple roles in title characters marked the biggest attraction for film which has hit screens today beginning the much awaited Dasara season on a big note. Directed by Bobby of Sardaar Gabbar Singh fame with Rashi Khanna, Niveda in other glam parts, let us see what JLK is here to offer us?
<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Story Review:&nbsp;</h2>
Jai, Lava and Kusa are three brothers working as artists in Tenali Drama Company performing mythological stage plays with uncle (Posani). Elder brother Jai develops hatred and jealous against his rest of the two brothers because of his stammering weakness. While performing a drama one day, the stage is set on fire and three brothers get separated presuming that everyone is dead. Into the present after 20 years, Lava (Jr NTR) is a good natured bank manager falls for Priya (Raashi Khanna) and Kusa (Jr NTR), a cunning thief is on a trial to fly USA. After an accidental meet of these two brothers, situations turn adverse as both of them are kidnapped to Bhairanpur in Orissa, controlled by Jai aka Raavan Maharaj (Jr NTR), a ruthless gangster who is ambitious to join Parliament. To overcome his stammering weakness in winning the public trust to become an MP and marry his lady love Simran (Niveda Thomas), Jai employs Lava and Kusa on respective jobs. In the process, Lava and Kusa also determine to bring Ram out of a Raavan inside Jai&hellip;did they succeed?
<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Artists, Technicians Review:</h2>
Jai Lava Kusa is not a simple story and script to execute. The script is thoroughly designed to showcase NTR strengths and how terrific actor he really is. Idea of Bobby to draw parallels between Ramayana and contemporary triplets from childhood is acceptable. As the film runs on, one can find a mythological flavor in Jai&rsquo;s Raavan characterization to connect with. In between, Bobby failed as a director in filling scenes of Lava and Kusa with numerous flaws in treatment and execution. Kona and Bobby&rsquo;s writing part lacked in penetrating dialogues though here and there Jai injects intensity with dialogue delivery. Bobby&rsquo;s efforts are praiseworthy in beginning, climax while rest is a regular fare. CK Muraleedharan and Chota K Naidu&rsquo;s camera work is good in Jai introduction portions. Editing followed the beaten path as screenplay hasn&rsquo;t got big twists and turns. Devi Sri Prasad&rsquo;s background score dominated the poor score on songs. VFX is again mediocre. Production standards from Kalyan Ram and NTR Arts are also just fine. Onto performances, NTR occupied more than 90 percent of screen space with Jai haunts us for a while. Tarak is versatile and a powerhouse talent. His skill to get into Jai characterization was effortless. Coming to Lava and Kusa, there&rsquo;s nothing new to offer because a dose of Adhurs Chary is evidentially felt. Performing two to three roles in every scene is a challenge for any actor and there&rsquo;s no other artist than NTR to accept such challenges. Raashi Khanna, Niveda Thomas did not make any impact. Abhimanyu Singh and Ronit Roy are spineless villains. Posani shined brightly in pre climax portions consolidating the story in one line. Sai Kumar played his part decently. Tamanna&rsquo;s item song is raunchy. Nanditha, Priyadarshi played small roles.
<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Review Advantages:</h2>
Story NTR As Raavan Correlating Concept With NTR Personal Life Climax
<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Review Drawbacks:</h2>
Direction Making Predictable Screenplay Songs Love Tracks Weak Villainy
<h2>Jai Lava Kusa Review Rating Analysis:</h2>
As mentioned above, Jai Lava Kusa glues more with audience not for on screen story but for the off screen personal life of NTR. In one line, Jai appeared like a replica of NTR who fought against all odds to achieve stardom and Nandamuri brand. Despite a fact that JLK story sights freshness, Bobby and Kona could have scored further more by adding more emotional peaks instead of wasting time on inodorous Lava and Kusa tracks. Beginning the first half sowing seeds for a vigorous Jai&rsquo;s characterization, Bobby concentrated more on stage plays as the three child artists gelled well in lengthy scenes. First fifteen minutes went well. Introducing Lava and Kusa has been a time taking process with mild entertainment dose. Lava&rsquo;s bank scenes and love with Raashi Khanna are frail. Kusa also appeared very regular imparting some comedy. Kusa entering into Lava role demanded much more on treatment. From here on, story moves on at its own pace till Jai enters with a bang kidnapping Lava, Kusa which is in fact the major highlight. Second half calls for much more as Sai Kumar begins to narrate Jai&rsquo;s childhood and his journey as gangster in Bhairanpur taking on opposition villains. This is told in a commercial mould which might please Fans. Reason behind a powerful Jai employing Lava, Kusa on political and love grounds is silly and unjustified. One episode of Lava asking the bank managers to rescue farmers is heart touching. Kusa romance with Niveda Thomas is just ok. Once Jai takes extreme step to eliminate the clues of triplets, film gets a genuine acceleration. Posani episode, Ramayana episode and sentiment filled action on Jai, Lava, Kusa makes way for one of the meaningful climaxes in recent times. In total, Jai Lava Kusa stands tall for Jai&rsquo;s character and terrific performance from NTR. Had director Bobby took proper care in interweaving necessary entertaining, emotional peaks JLK could have been an overall masterpiece. For now, it&rsquo;s a treat for NTR Fans to anchor with their hero&rsquo;s off screen personal life presented beautifully on big screen. Commercially, JLK will open to some mind blowing figures and long run depends on how audiences react at Jai. Being Dasara holiday season, Jai Lava Kusa is set to create new records. CJ goes for 2.75 stars congratulating NTR for his impeccable acting skills.

Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: What's BehindSmall film Chandrayaan generated interest as it is presented by Venu Udugula who produced the superhit film Raju Weds Rambai .

Let us findout how the film entertained movie lovers.Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Story ReviewChandrayaan story revolves around three youngsters who pass time listlessly in their village and how their lives change when they decided to achieve something different to surprise all.Three underachieving youngsters in Mandamarri decide to build a rocket and travel to the moon, launching their own space program with experiments that include sending a chicken into space.Shiva (Shiva Kumar Dheekonda), Ravi (Ravi Shiva Teja) and Raju (Vamsidhar) are mocked by the people in their village as bad omen as the moment they enter, they virtually spoil everywork. Shiva falls in love with a beautiful girl Bindu (Swapna Priyadarshini) and seeing him flirting her, she makes fun of him and this triggers his ego and the three friends along with the child Chinna (Lokesh Murukuth) plan a secret mission. What is the secret mission and how it impacts the lives of all including the Indo-Pak relations, should be watched on the screen.Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Artists ReviewShiva Kumar Dheekonda, Ravi Shiva Teja and Vamsidhar performed well in the roles of the village youngsters who enjoy life in a listless manner. Their body language and makeup are in sync with their characters. Their dialogues and Telangana accent are natural and realistic.They came up with natural and realistic performances. Swapna Priyadarshini is fine in her role. Lokesh Murukuth is good in his role. Others performed according to their roles.Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewChandrayaan, a film written and directed by Srinath Chandrasekhar, tries to merge fun and innocence in a rural setup, dealing with three young boys aspiring to travel to the moon. Undoubtedly, the idea is very good and leaves a lot of space for many entertaining instances. Though the movie has some good concepts, the presentation is rather dull. Innocence of the young boys and their efforts to make a rocket are fairly entertaining in the first half, but narration of the film pales in the second half with a few dragged parts and rather dull screenplay.The music by Harsha Praveen is alright, and background score matches the mood and setting of the film. Srinivasa B should be credited for his excellent camera work for presenting the rustic milieu of the village in a natural way. Editing by D. Pullarao could have been better, as few sequences hamper the pace of narration. Yet, the movie does have some strong scenes where editing could not have done anything much in spite of good production quality of the film.Chandrayaan Movie: AdvantagesConceptChandrayaan Movie: DisadvantagesSlow PaceScreenplayMissing EmotionsChandrayaan(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Chandrayaan fails in its attempt to entertain. Director Srinath Chandrasekhar planned to generate fun through the innocence of village youngsters but he failed in his attempt miserably. The scenes lacked the strong emotions and the entire screenplay treads in a listless direction. The direction did not inspire confidence. One gets a feeling that even 80s soap operas are better as the director with a small point, ended up dragging the narration, stretching it to the optimum. People are left wondering how the project went to sets and what made Venu Udugula to present the film. Considering all these points, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Chandrayaan. &nbsp;

He relies heavily on comedy scenes and gags to entertain audiences. Unfortunately, most of these attempts fail to generate laughs and instead test the patience of viewers.The first half moves through several comedy episodes, but very few work as intended. The interval provides some relief, raising hopes for a better second half. However, the film becomes more tedious after the break. The narration feels outdated, and the loud dialogue deliveries by several actors become another problem.The music by Sinjith Yerramilli is one of the better aspects of the film. A couple of songs are foot-tapping, while the background score is a mixed bag. Suriya Balaji's cinematography is average.

The antagonists turned out to be mere spectators with everything turning out to be a smooth ride for the protagonist despite being dumb. For all the intense elements the so called intense thrill factor and impactful emotions goes missing.Thaman came up with melodious tunes. The songs are well shot in the beautiful and appealing locations. The songs are soulful and made an impression. He elevated the scenes with his thumping background music.

Mahendran), unknown power (Regina Cassandra) and others from the rest of the developments.Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Artists ReviewNayanthara slipped into the role effortlessly. She entertained with her graceful performance and also at the same time impressed with her valor and made powerful impact.Urvashi in the role of mother is good balancing her expressions and emotions. &nbsp;Regina Cassandra made her presence felt on the screen in a different role. But her attire and costume design is not up to the mark and she looked odd on the screen.Duniya Vijay made is Kollywood Debut came up with a decent performance. However, Yogi Babu's comedy didn't work out. Others performed according to their roles.Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewMahasakthi story is penned by Sundar C. While the first part is directed by RJ Balaji and NJ. Saravanan, Sundar directed the sequel. The story is different from the first part. The first part dealt with take godmen exploiting the beliefs of the people. Sundari C went one step ahead, including Goddess, evil forces, Saitan and what not.However the story follows the routine template of devotional and fantasy elements and comes with a little twist. He blended commercial and entertainment masala elements in his own style. Though there are experienced actress like Urvashi, even her presence couldn't take the film to next level. To the top of it, Yogi Babu's comedy looked irrelevant and out of sync and impacted the narration.The narration starts with the mysterious elements in the temples and the pace is slow and steady. Only after Nayanthara starts to unravel the mystery, the screenplay picks up pace. After the fight between good and evil, the story ends on a predictable note. Sneha and Khushboo made special appearances and feature in a high octane doing ahead of the heavily used VFX climax.Hip Hop Tamizha's music didn't add any value to the proceedings. His elevated the scenes to some extent with impactful background score but most of the time it turned out to be loud.The re-recording highlighted the mood of the film's genre. The Cinematography of Gopi Amarnath added value to the narration and is effective. VFX turned out to be the weak link. The editing of Fenny Oliver is ok but could have been far better at times.

People are left to wonder, why Sundar named the film as the sequel to Mookuthi Amman. He could have named it with different title or Aranmanai 5. It seems he was under the impression the more characters, supernatural elements will excite all. But weak Screenplay, illogical scenes and characterizations brought down the intensity. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Mahashakti.

He as a police officer showed variations in his expressions and emotions as an unpredictable and eccentric person. He with his mannerisms and comic timing entertains all.Naslen came up with a chilling performance and his psychological battle with Suriya is good. Nazriya Nazim is good and enacted action sequences with ease. Her chemistry with Suriya is attractive. However she looked older than Suriya.Lal with his performance evoked a few laughs. Others like Anandraj and Raj Priyan are ok in their roles.Scene (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewScene story is penned by Jithu Madhavan of Aavesham fame. He made his Kollywood entry with this film. He starts the narration in an interesting manner before the introduction of Suriya in a typical stylish way as usual.The first half is full of investigation proceedings, dialogues between three cops and a few hilarious elements in the backdrop of serious tone. However, a couple of scenes and twists looked unconvincing. Still the first half turns out to be a decent watch.The second half nose dives completely with uninteresting elements and insipid investigation. Except for a few scenes here and there, everything turns lackluster. The climax ends on a disappointing and weak note with no real face off.Sushin Shyam failed completely with his music. However, he came up with a breezy and groovy background music to elevate the scenes. His innovative background score added a quirky look to the proceedings.Vineeth Augustin with his Cinematography elevated the tone and tenor of the film's genre. Ajmal Sabu's editing turned out to be a mixed bag. He left many dragging scenes unattended in the second half which resulted in a tedious watch.

Jithu Madhavan is successful in showing Suriya in a different way but the weak characterizations and surprisingly weak investigation along with the underwhelming climax played the spoilsport. A racy screenplay and powerful characterizations doing with redoing of the script would have added more power. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2.25 rating for Scene.

They bring innocence and natural expressions to their characters, handling the emotional and humorous moments convincingly.Baby Khushi and the other child actors add to the film's entertainment value. Jayasudha is effective as the grandmother, while Vasuki Anand and Harshavardhan do well as RV's parents. Rajeev Kanakala stands out with a strong performance.Summer Holidays (2026) Movie: Technical AspectsSrikar Nayan G builds the story around childhood friendships, summer holidays and the simple joys of village life. The film brings back memories of carefree vacations spent playing with friends and enjoying time away from school. It also underlines the importance of friendship, hard work and finding happiness beyond academic marks.The film begins with the conflict between a father and son before moving into the village setting. The narrative picks up pace as RV meets KV, and the emotional interval sequence sets up the second half well.However, the proceedings become predictable after the interval. Though the emotional moments, both happy and sad, have their share of impact, the screenplay follows familiar lines. The climax provides some emotional satisfaction, but the film could have made a stronger impression with tighter writing.Sai Prakash Ummadisingu's cinematography captures the village atmosphere beautifully. Sinjith Yerramilli's songs are pleasant and have been picturised well. Santosh Naidu's editing is decent, though a few portions could have been trimmed. The production values are good.Summer Holidays Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Village backdrop</li><li>Performances</li><li>Emotions and humour</li></ul>Summer Holidays Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Predictable story</li><li>Convenient screenplay</li><li>Flat narration</li></ul>Summer Holidays (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisSummer Holidays is a feel-good entertainer that banks on nostalgia, childhood memories and emotions. Debutant director Srikar Nayan G handles the central idea with clarity and conviction. The producers deserve appreciation for backing a story that focuses on simple human emotions rather than relying on violence and commercial gimmicks.However, the film's impact is limited by its flat narration and convenient screenplay. A tighter script, a more engaging pace and fewer predictable moments could have made it a better experience. Despite its pleasant moments, the film leaves the feeling that something is missing.Considering its strengths and shortcomings, Cinejosh rates Summer Holidays 2.5/5.

Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: What's BehindRamayana is one of the most ambitious Indian films, bringing the country's much-loved epic to the big screen on a grand scale. Nitesh Tiwari, known for films like Dangal and Chhichhore, has taken up the responsibility of presenting this timeless story to audiences across the world. Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana have added to the curiosity surrounding the project. With A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer handling the music, expectations are high. The film's massive scale and star cast have made it one of the most anticipated cinematic ventures. Let us see how far Ramayana lives up to the expectations.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: StoryThe Ramayana is a story that needs no introduction. Nitesh Tiwari brings the epic to the big screen, focusing on the journey of Rama, his marriage to Sita, their exile and the events that lead to her abduction by Ravana. The first part introduces the key characters and sets up the conflict between Rama and Ravana, with the much-awaited battle left for the next instalment.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: PerformancesRanbir Kapoor looks convincing as Lord Rama. He brings the required calmness and dignity to the character. Sai Pallavi is a good choice for Sita, and her natural performance adds grace to the role. Both actors do justice to their characters.Yash makes his presence felt as Ravana. His looks, body language and screen presence suit the character, and he brings the required intensity whenever he appears. Ravi Dubey is good as Lakshmana, while the supporting cast does its job well.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: Technical AspectsThe biggest attraction of Ramayana is its scale. The sets, costumes, locations and production design give the film a grand look. The visual effects work well in several important sequences, though a few shots could have been better. The Jatayu episode is one of the film's standout moments.A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer's music adds weight to the proceedings, particularly in the important sequences. The background score works better than the songs. Cinematography is impressive, while the editing could have been sharper in a few portions.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: AnalysisNitesh Tiwari has taken up a challenging task, and there is no doubt that the film has been mounted on a huge scale. Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi do justice to Rama and Sita, while Yash brings the necessary power to Ravana. The casting is one of the film's strengths.However, the film doesn't maintain the same pace throughout. Some episodes take longer than necessary, and the narration loses momentum in a few places. Despite having several visually impressive moments, the emotional impact is not equally strong across the film. The familiar story also puts more responsibility on the writing to keep audiences engaged, and this is where the film could have done better.The first part largely concentrates on establishing the characters and their worlds. While it offers enough moments to enjoy on the big screen, the wait for the actual Rama-Ravana battle may leave some viewers wanting more.Ramayana Part 1 Movie: Plus Points<ul><li>Grand production values</li><li>Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi's performances</li><li>Yash as Ravana</li><li>Impressive visuals</li><li>Jatayu episode</li><li>Background score</li></ul>Ramayana Part 1 Movie: Minus Points<ul><li>Slow narration in parts</li><li>Lengthy runtime</li><li>Uneven visual effects</li><li>Emotional impact could have been stronger</li><li>Editing could have been tighter</li></ul>Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: VerdictRamayana has the scale and performances needed for a grand theatrical experience. Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash make the familiar characters interesting to watch, and some sequences leave a strong impression. However, the slow narration and lack of consistent emotional depth hold the film back. It is a decent first instalment that sets up the bigger conflict for the next part.

Rudravanam PS Web Series: What's BehindRudravanam PS webseries starring Naresh Agastya under the direction of Sasidhar Munnangi is streaming on Zee5 starting from 30 October. Let us find out how the web series thrilled movie lovers.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Story ReviewRudravanam PS story revolves around mysterious murders and disappearance of a politician and where the investigation by the cops lead to. CI Venu Gopal (Banerjee) along with SI Siva Kumar (Naresh Agastya) starts investigating the mysterious disappearances of 8 people that include even the brother of MLA Bhairavulu (Raja Ravindra). Where this leads to, how it is connected to his wife Swarna (Preeti Sunder), Anji (Charu Vaken) and others form the interesting twist.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Artists ReviewNaresh Agasthya performed well in his role. He showed his acting talent showing variations in his body language and screen presence. He showed the required seriousness in his role during the investigation and while following orders from the higherups. &nbsp;He delivered dialogues highlighting the emotions with his expressions. Charu Vaken impressed with his performance in the final episodes.Banerjee is good in the role of the higher up. Shravani Reddy is good in her role. However Anji's character is not shown in the most interesting manner. Raja Ravindra, Preeti Sundar, Shiva Alapati performed according to their roles.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Technicians ReviewRudravanam PS story is written by Taj Sayed and is helmed by Sasidhar Munnangi. He tried to excite all with the crime thriller. The first four episodes progress in a interesting and exciting manner. He designed the character of Naresh Agasthya. The happenings involving the character of Anji is good. But these things could have been shown in the more impactful manner.Sasidhar Munnangi the loses plot in the last three episodes diluting the intensity levels. Had these scenes designed in &nbsp;an interesting manner, things would have been different. The more subplots as the investigation progresses resulted in the decrease of interest leves as it resulted in confusion all over. It turned out to be a mixed bag with few scenes getting dragged unnecessarily and some scenes ending rather abruptly.Many murder mysteries came with such plot and very few of them are engaging. Rudravanam PS also fails to engage. The first four episodes though interesting are dragged showing the restlessness in the police force and the story do not head anywhere. The entire story is narrated in the last two episodes and the &nbsp;motive of the culprit is shown in the last episode and this is little interesting. However, even that pales due to the weak motive.Ashkar Ali with his cinematography showed the rural village atmosphere in the natural and realistic manner. However Madhav's editing should have been &nbsp;more sharper as there are many scenes that slowed the pace of the narration. The background music of Saluri Vasu Rao is good and added value to the narration. Production values are good.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Advantages<ul><li>Naresh Agasthya's characterisation</li><li>BGM</li><li>Cinematography</li><li>Interesting &nbsp;Climax</li></ul>Rudravanam PS Web Series: Disadvantages<ul><li>Missing Emotions</li><li>Spineless Screenplay</li><li>Subplots</li><li>Weak Twists</li></ul>Rudravanam PS Web Series: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Rudravanam PS turns out to be a routine investigative thriller. Naresh Agasthya came up with a spirited performance and director Sasidhar Munnangi tried to thrill viewers in this 7 episodes webseries. While he made an impactful start with the first four episodes showing the investigating episodes in an exciting and interesting manner, the last three episodes except for the climax goes for a toss. For all his efforts, though the characterisation of Naresh Agasthya's role appeals, everything goes missing. The story lacked the emotional connect with things passing through the motions and screenplay turning spineless and stale without offering nothing much to excite. Little finetuning of the script and racy screenplay and powerful emotions would have added more punch to the story. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating for Rudravanam PS.

Akka (2026) Web Series: StoryAkka is set in the 1980s in Pernuru, a fictional South Indian kingdom ruled by women for generations. The society follows its own traditions, with women holding power and men having a limited role in the kingdom's affairs. Bhavani (Keerthy Suresh) is the powerful matriarch who controls the kingdom and tries to protect its traditions and authority.However, her world gets disturbed when Rudra (Radhika Apte), an outsider with a personal vendetta, enters Pernuru with plans to take control. What follows is a violent battle involving power, revenge, betrayals and family rivalries. How Bhavani handles the threat and what happens to the kingdom form the rest of the story.Akka Web Series: PerformancesKeerthy Suresh gets a strong character in Bhavani, but the writing does not give her enough emotional depth to make the role memorable. She manages to bring some authority to the character, although the overall impact remains limited.Radhika Apte gets an interesting role as Rudra, but her characterisation and dialogue delivery do not create the desired impact. Tanvi Azmi and Monika Panwar have their moments, while Mahesh Manjrekar, Anshuman Pushkar, Vishak Nair and the rest of the supporting cast have limited scope to make an impression.Akka Web Series: AnalysisAkka starts with an interesting premise. A fictional kingdom controlled by women, where power struggles and gangster politics take centre stage, offers plenty of scope for an engaging period crime drama. The conflict between Bhavani and Rudra also provides an interesting foundation.Unfortunately, the writing fails to make proper use of this idea. The series spends considerable time establishing its fictional world, traditions and characters, but struggles to create emotional involvement. Despite several betrayals, violent confrontations and power games, the proceedings rarely become engaging.The biggest problem is the lack of strong characterisation. Both Bhavani and Rudra are introduced as powerful women, but their motivations and emotional journeys are not explored effectively. Several subplots occupy considerable screen time without adding much value to the central conflict.The series also relies heavily on violence and grand visuals to create an impression. However, the action sequences lack the impact required to elevate the drama. Even when the narrative reaches important turning points, the emotional connect remains weak.Akka Web Series: Technical AspectsThe production design, costumes and locations give the series a lavish appearance. However, the artificial presentation and excessive stylisation make the fictional world less convincing. The background score is largely unremarkable and fails to enhance the intensity of the confrontations. The writing and direction needed much more conviction to turn the ambitious premise into an engaging drama.Akka Web Series: Plus Points<ul><li>Interesting central premise</li><li>Some detailing of the matriarchal society</li><li>Lavish production design and costumes</li></ul>Akka Web Series: Minus Points<ul><li>Weak and simplistic writing</li><li>Poor character development</li><li>Lack of emotional depth</li><li>Unconvincing world-building</li><li>Underwhelming action and background score</li></ul>Akka Web Series: VerdictAkka has an interesting premise and a lavish setup, but the execution fails to match its ambition. The power struggle between two strong female characters could have made for an engaging gangster drama. However, weak writing, shallow characterisation and a lack of emotional depth make the series a disappointing watch. Despite its visual grandeur, Akka turns out to be more about show than substance.

Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.25 rating for Killer.
