Taking to his X timeline, actor Mohanlal wrote, "Patriot Behind The Scenes: Srilanka. In Cinemas Worldwide from April 23 , 2026." #Patriot Behind The Scenes : SrilankaIn Cinemas Worldwide from April 23 , 2026https://t.co/36gWdfcsuo — Mohanlal (@Mohanlal) February 12, 2026 The BTS video released had visuals shot on an airbase, filled with choppers, planes and fighter aircraft. The BTS video also showed glimpses of Mohanlal and Mammootty on the airbase, highlighting the fact that the two legends of Malayalam cinema were coming together after 18 years. One interesting visual showed Fahaadh Faasil sitting inside the cockpit of a fighter aircraft with a professional explaining to him about the controls of the aircraft. It may be recalled that actor Fahadh Faasil had recently disclosed that he plays the villain in the film. Fahadh, who participated in an event recently, made this disclosure on stage. "I play the villain in Patriot," he said and went on to also confirm that there would be a second part to his blockbuster film Aavesham. "Yes, Aavesham 2 is there. That is a question that people ask me everywhere I go. Hopefully, (in) 2027 or 2028," he said. For the unaware, Patriot is scheduled to hit screens worldwide on April 23 this year. The makers of Patriot have confirmed that Mohanlal has completed dubbing for his portions in the film. On the film's official Instagram handle, the makers recently posted a video clip of Mohanlal flashing the thumbs up sign after dubbing and wrote, "Some voices do not just speak, they define moments. Mohanlal has completed dubbing for Patriot. In Cinemas Worldwide from April 23. Mohanlal AntoJoseph AntoJosephFilmCompany Patriot MaheshNarayanan." On January 4 this year, the makers of the film had announced that the unit had wrapped up the film's shooting. They wrote, "That’s a wrap. Blood, sweat, belief. PATRIOT marches on. See you on the Big screen." They also shared a BTS video of all the stars on the sets on the occasion. The film, which has triggered huge expectations ever since it was announced, also features acclaimed actors Fahadh Faasil, Kunchacko Boban, Nayanthara, and Revathy in addition to the two Malayalam superstars. A teaser which the makers released last year went on to amplify the expectations of fans and film buffs. The teaser begins with a voiceover which says, " I remember there was a time when this nation was controlled by the two of them. Together. Over these years, what they earned wasn't just followers. Faith. Trust." We then see a series of intriguing but intense scenes and hear Mammootty's voice say, "They are going to bring social score to people." We next hear Mohanlal, who appears to play an army general in the film, say, "There are three of us. Do you think you can stop us?" The teaser then gives us an idea that there is a program called Periscope and that Kunchacko Boban plays a character called Daniel. Nayanthara is heard asking, "This program, which is part of the student laptop scheme. Is that similar to Periscope?" We also hear another voice, asking,"Is this program watching them secretly?" The teaser ends with Mammootty asking someone to complete the sentence, "Great Indian traitor... or Patriot." Overall, the teaser gives the impression that the film will revolve around a group of socially responsible individuals trying to thwart an illegal attempt by the government to monitor its citizens.

The couple welcomed twins, a boy and a girl, marking a new chapter in their personal lives. While they announced the birth with a heartfelt video capturing their journey, the couple have now revealed the names of their newborns, rooted in tradition, legacy, and spirituality.

Upasana and I discussed it extensively, but our parents were very much part of the journey.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ram Charan (@alwaysramcharan) Explaining the names of their children, Charan remarked, “Our son’s name, Shivram, reflects two eternal ideals – Lord Shiva and Lord Rama – strength with restraint, devotion with righteousness. It also carries forward my father’s birth name, Shiv Shankar Vara Prasad, so there’s lineage and gratitude woven into it.” Talking about naming their daughter Anveera Devi, the actor added, “It represents boundless courage and divine feminine strength. ‘Veera’ signifies bravery, and ‘An’ expands it to something limitless. The ‘Devi’ is intentional – a reminder that strength and grace can co-exist. For us, these names are not just identifiers. They are aspirations of strength, love, and courage.” Upasana on embracing motherhood for the second time “The first time, everything is new – beautiful, but overwhelming. This time, I feel much more relaxed and grounded. I’ve learned to let go of a lot, and now I don’t panic over the small things anymore. Stability, routine, and unconditional love – that’s really all the little ones need right now. Managing twins is magical. I’m only a week into it, so I don’t want to speak too soon – but there’s an extraordinary sense of fulfillment watching all three of my children together… Ram has been incredibly hands-on, especially with Kaara,” she said. For the unversed, Ram Charan and Upasana, who tied the knot in Hyderabad in 2012, became parents for the first time in 2023. They welcomed daughter Klin Kaara Konidela.

His last film, RRR, was made on a budget of USD 72 million (Rs 550 crores), which was inflated due to its extensive VFX and massive action sequences.

The poster offers a striking glimpse into Ishqnama’s world - a romance drama rooted in true events and unfolding against the fraught India-Pakistan backdrop. In one image, Shehnaaz is seen hugging an injured Jayy Randhawa, her expression heavy with pain, resilience and devotion, capturing a love bruised by conflict yet refusing to break. She shared another visual featuring only herself, in which she appears to be dressed as a bride, her face half-covered by a dupatta. She is wearing heavy gold jewellery, draped in the old Punjabi aesthetic, hinting at a love story shaped as much by sacrifice as by longing. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shehnaaz Gill (@shehnaazgill) She captioned her post: “First picture from my upcoming movie…. (blue heart emoji) 'ISHQNAMA’ True Story of True Lovers NIMMA–NASIMA. Releasing 24th July 2026 in cinemas worldwide.” The announcement instantly sparked excitement, not just for the film but for the emotional weight the visuals promise. This reveal comes at a defining moment in Shehnaaz Gill’s career. In 2025, she achieved a major milestone with the Punjabi film Ikk Kudi, marking her debut as a producer under Shehnaaz Gill Production. The film emerged as a commercial success, establishing her not just as a performer but as a creative force backing stories with substance. Before that, she had already earned acclaim with the 2021 Punjabi blockbuster Honsla Rakh, which showcased her ability to connect with audiences on a large scale.

I am seeing the same kind of stories; there is nothing unique, and they have no great messages. I was getting a lot of offers, but I feel putting that money on me should be worthwhile. I have been offered Punjabi films for the last five years, but I wasn’t doing them. I wanted someone to bet on me with a different concept. I wanted to make a comeback in the Punjab industry in a different way, especially when I was returning after 3-4 years. I was waiting for that.” With Ishqnama, Shehnaaz appears to be pushing her artistic boundaries even further, embracing a romance etched in history, loss and hope.
