SS RAJAMOULI'S MUCH-AWAITED BIGGIE 'VARANASI' TO RELEASE ON 7 APRIL 2027?... There's tremendous speculation that master storyteller #SSRajamouli's much-awaited biggie #Varanasi is gearing up for a worldwide release on [Wednesday] 7 April 2027.Hoardings have… pic.twitter.com/ZW232tPXIH — taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) January 29, 2026 Varanasi OTT deal Driven not only by the director’s towering global reputation, the film also unites the star power of Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, and Prithviraj Sukumaran. Understandably, despite being more than a year away from release, the film has triggered enormous pre-release buzz, with OTT giants reportedly racing to secure its digital rights. According to Hindustan Times, “Varanasi is the hottest property from India in the global streaming market. The film follows the immense success of RRR in the West and its historic Oscar win. Rajamouli’s previous film Baahubali 2 had also earned over 62 million dollars overseas, making the director a recognised name in global markets. Naturally, his next project has sparked a bidding war for digital rights, with trade sources stating that streaming platforms are considering Hollywood-level payouts. The final figure could go as high as Rs 1000 crore.” SS Rajamouli reveals Varanasi is shot for IMAX SS Rajamouli said, “Firstly, I would like to thank the Rachakonda Police Department. KL Narayan garu, thank you for bringing Mahesh and me together. Usually, before my films, I hold a press meet and narrate the story – it became a tradition. But actually, I don’t do that for every film. For ‘Baahubali’, I didn’t. If there is scope, we will; if not, we won’t. For this film, we won’t. But we wanted to release an announcement video to set the expectations right. We planned it for March but couldn’t. Then the rains came… and now, on November 14, we are finally coming with that video. It’s becoming difficult to keep referring to it as “this film” without revealing the title.” Lauding Superstar Krishna, he said, “I didn’t know much about the greatness of Superstar Krishna garu earlier. I was a fan of NTR garu, but after entering the industry, I understood Krishna garu’s legacy. To introduce a new technology, you must break many norms, and he did that with multiple films. Today, I am proud to say we are introducing a new format to Telugu cinema: a premium large-scale format, filmed for IMAX. You might think, “Aren’t there already IMAX films?” The ones we usually watch are blown-up versions of the CinemaScope print. But a few films, like ‘Baahubali’ and ‘RRR’, were actually shot, mastered, and VFX-finished specifically for the format. This film too is being created for IMAX in the truest sense.”
29 January,2026 05:01 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentActor Arvind Swamy rose to fame in the 1990s with hit films such as Roja and Bombay. He became a well-known face not just in Tamil Nadu but across the country due to the popularity of his movies. Despite his success, Arvind was selective about his work and chose projects he truly cared about. However, in 2005, he suffered a spinal injury that left him partially paralysed. The physical and mental toll of the injury pushed him away from films for a long time. Arvind Swamy on his paralysis phase Recently, Arvind spoke about this phase at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne. He revealed that the injury left him in pain for nearly a year and a half as he initially refused to undergo surgery. Things changed when he opted for Ayurvedic treatment and began walking within just three days. Arvind recalled that he was bedridden in 2005 due to the injury, a situation that lasted for a year and a half because he chose not to have surgery. Later, he decided to go ahead with treatment, which led him to an Ayurvedic practitioner from Kerala. The actor admitted he had never previously considered Ayurveda, as he was always surrounded by people who believed in allopathy. While Ayurveda worked for him, Arvind said he would not recommend it universally and urged people to follow proper medical advice. “For one and a half years, I was in a lot of pain and my mobility was affected, but in three days, he made me walk. It worked for me. I am not saying you should make choices based on my experience,” he said. He added that there is “ancient wisdom” in Ayurveda that helped him, while also acknowledging that allopathy has worked for him as well. Arvind said the period when he was bedridden was more mentally challenging than physically. He kept himself mentally active by playing board games, puzzles, and chess, which helped him cope with the situation. After his recovery, Arvind chose not to push himself too hard. At the time, his children were very young and he was a single father, prompting him to move forward cautiously. His return to films came when Mani Ratnam offered him Kadal. He shared that after 13 years away from acting, he never thought he would return, but prepared himself mentally and physically before taking up the film. Arvind Swamy will next be seen in Gandhi Talks, a silent film also starring Vijay Sethupathi and Aditi Rao Hydari, with music by AR Rahman.
29 January,2026 02:58 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentThe Hon’ble Delhi High Court has passed an order protecting the personality and publicity rights of acclaimed actor Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao (NTR). The court’s intervention comes after a petition filed by the actor highlighting the widespread unauthorised and commercial misuse of his identity across various platforms. Taking note of the issue, the Hon’ble High Court granted protection to his personality rights. Inclusions in personality rights The order covers the unauthorised commercial use of his name and popular identifiers, including “NTR”, “Jr. NTR”, “NTR Jr.”, “Taarak”, “Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao Jr.” and “Jr. Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao”, as well as his sobriquets such as “Man of Masses” and “Young Tiger”. The protection also extends to his image, likeness, and related attributes. The court has directed that any such unauthorised use, if found, must be removed in accordance with applicable laws. At a prima facie stage, the Hon’ble Court expressly recognised that Mr Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao has acquired celebrity status in India, earning immense goodwill and reputation through a successful career. It was observed that his name, image, and likeness are uniquely associated with him in the public mind, entitling him to proprietary rights over his personality and associated attributes. The court further held that personality and publicity rights form an integral part of the right to life and freedom under Articles 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India, and are enforceable under the Copyright Act, 1957 and the Trade Marks Act, 1999. Action to be taken against misuse Additionally, intermediary platforms have been directed to treat the plaint as a statutory complaint under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, and to act on identified infringing links within the prescribed timelines. The court also issued directions against unidentified and anonymous entities (John Doe defendants), restraining any individual—including online trolls and unknown offenders—from misappropriating or exploiting Mr NTR’s personality and publicity rights through merchandise, digital content, morphed images, AI-generated material, or any other technological means for commercial gain or misuse. The order highlights the growing importance of protecting individual identity and reputation in the digital age and reinforces the responsibility of platforms and third parties to ensure the lawful and respectful use of public figures’ names, images, and personas. Any misuse or misrepresentation that harms the actor’s reputation will invite strict legal consequences.

29 January,2026 11:10 AM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentVeteran filmmaker and Vijay's father, SA Chandrasekhar, has finally broken his silence on the controversial delay surrounding the theatrical release of Jana Nayagan. Chandrasekhar hinted that the hurdles faced by the film were linked to Vijay's political transition. Vijay's Father reacts to Jana Nayagan delay Chandrasekhar told reporters, “Dravidian parties have ruled Tamil Nadu for more than 60 years,” while claiming that Vijay’s political venture has disturbed rooted political forces in the state. He claimed that pressure is being exerted on Vijay through various means following his political entry. “Everyone knows why Jana Nayagan has not been released,” he said, indicating that the film’s delay was linked to political developments and not creative or commercial reasons. Further talking about the reasons behind the repeated postponements, Chandrasekhar told India Today, "The people know what happened in Karur. Vijay is not afraid of anything. His chances of success are bright." "It is normal for those entering politics for the first time to face obstacles. Vijay will face any number of such obstacles," he added, emphasising that the circumstances behind Jana Nayagan's delay are already well understood by the public. Chandrasekhar also highlighted a larger cultural shift triggered by Vijay's political foray, according to him, saying, "After Vijay entered politics, young people and women are discussing politics. They are more articulate than me." Jana Nayagan CBFC row Chandrasekhar's comments come amid a massive legal setback for Jana Nayagan. Recently, the Madras High Court set aside a single judge's order directing the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to grant a censor certificate to the film, which further delayed its release. The High Court noted that the single judge should have given the CBFC adequate time to file its counter before passing the earlier order. Notably, Jana Nayagan cannot be released in theatres until it receives clearance from the CBFC. A fresh hearing in the case is set to begin at the Madras High Court, as the film's release date hangs in uncertainty. Helmed by H Vinoth, Jana Nayagan was initially scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on January 9. Along with Vijay, the film also features Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol and Mamitha Baiju in key roles.
29 January,2026 11:09 AM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentActress Shriya Saran, in an exclusive conversation with IANS, has spoken candidly about how pregnancy and parenthood bring emotional turmoil not just for women, but also for husbands. She highlighted how to-be and new fathers often struggle to understand and cope with the changes their partners go through during pregnancy. Shriya reflected on how the emotional impact of pregnancy often affects the husband first, even though he may not completely understand what the woman is experiencing. “Unfortunately, the first person who bears the impact is usually the husband, and most of the time, he doesn’t fully understand it. Not because he doesn’t want to, but because he isn’t emotionally trained or informed,” she said. Shriya said that men are deeply affected and are rarely prepared for what lies ahead. She added how, at times, for a pregnant woman, not having her husband around during vulnerable times is extremely difficult to cope with. “When you want someone to pass you a pillow or just call you silly for no reason, and they are not there, it really hurts. The husband not being there feels terrible,” Shriya said. Talking about pregnancy and the emotional turmoils a woman goes through in that phase, the actress shared, “A woman goes through so much; her body changes, her organs get compressed, and emotionally she feels very different throughout the journey. From the beginning till the end, there are mood swings, but none of this is really explained to a husband.” Shriya pointed out that most couples are informed about these realities only as they unfold. “No one tells you these things before pregnancy. You only find out as it happens, and then you wonder why nobody told you earlier. Emotional turmoil is a big part of it, and a woman goes through a lot,” she said For the uninitiated, Shriya Saran is a mother to a 5-year-old baby girl, Radha, who was born in January 2021. The actress married Russian entrepreneur Andrei Koscheev in March 2018 in an intimate ceremony. On the professional front, Shriya has been receiving great reviews for her performance in her recently released web series Space Gen. She is also geared up for her movie Drishyam 3.
