For many of our generation and before, the name Veerappan was synonymous with terror and fear. It would remind cinemagoers of Gabbar Singh in the cult classic film Sholay, who rolled out intimidation tactics through his actions. The difference would be that Veerappan existed in flesh and blood. He created a sense of fear in the Andhra-Karnataka-Kerala-Tamil Nadu region from the late 1980s until the 2000s, and no government could find a way to make him abandon his life of crime. Directed by Sharath Jothi, Koose Munisamy Veerappan, the Zee5 documentary chronicles the life of the dreaded sandalwood smuggler Veerappan, from being a mere thief to living the life of a criminal in the deep forests of South India.

Devan’s directorial debut, Valatty, revolves around Tomy, a golden retriever with a golden heart and a lens through which he saw the word differently. His owner, Roy (Vijay Babu), loved him more than anything in the world and was looking for a suitable companion for his furry friend to breed with. Roy would die before he would make Tomy cross with dogs from lousy households. While Roy was searching the city to find a perfect partner for Tomy, he saw Amalu, a cocker spaniel that belonged to his neighbor, Saraswati (Mahima Nambiar). From the moment Tomy laid his eyes on Amalu, he lost his heart to her and began seeking excuses just to see her. Since Tomy was the coolest dog in society, he tried impressing Amalu with the tricks Roy taught him. Amalu also reciprocated his advances and fell for Tomy.

Some filmmakers do get carried away with adulation from a section of movie-watchers who are out and out rabid supporters of an ideology. For obvious reasons, their captive audience is charged up and won’t listen to any contrarian opinion from another group of followers. Vivek Agnihotri, who is hellbent upon proving his loyalty to the present ruling dispensation, has been making movies with a single-point agenda: to flag as biased an opinion that is contrary to the one he professes and rewrite history to suit his extreme right-wing beliefs.
Two of his earlier films, ‘The Kashmir Files’ and ‘The Tashkent Files’, tried to create the myth that he believes is nothing but the truth. Really?

Hyderabad, Aug 20 (Ians) Tollywood superstars Pawan Kalyan and Sai Dharam Tej released the theatrical version of their film ‘Bro’ last month on July 28, which polarised critics and audiences due to its different content garnering it mixed reception which was either overwhelmingly positive or negative.
Now the film has released its Ott date as August 25, 2023 and will be streaming on Netflix.
The movie’s Ott released date was announced on Netflix India’s Instagram, who released a poster of the picture and captioned: “Time is precious, but this time it’s Powerful”
The Telugu language supernatural-fantasy-comedy-drama film directed by Samuthirakani is an adaptation of the 2021 Tamil movie ‘Vinodhaya Sitham’ which had similar content. While ‘Vinodhaya Sitham’ was both a critical and box office success, ‘Bro’ was not so successful.

OpinionThe Shobana-Mohanlal starrer 'Abhayam Thedi' can be called a companion piece to director IV Sasi’s 'Anubandham' and 'Aalkkoottathil Thaniye', in how it depicts family struggles and individual crisis.Mohanlal and Shobana in Abhayam ThediWriter Mt Vasudevan Nair’s worldbuilding in director IV Sasi’s 1986 Malayalam film Abhayam Thedi (seeking refuge) is quite intricate. The stock, dysfunctional, Nair tharavadu (ancestral mansion) has the ‘aesthetics’ of a dominant caste Hindu household — a massive double-storeyed house that still carries vestiges of its occupants' bruised past and fraught present, enclosed by front yards, back yards, ancient trees, ponds, and acres of seclusion. It is to this space that Miranda (Shobana), the granddaughter of the patriarch’s deceased prodigal son returns, hoping to find refuge and solace. Abhayam Thedi can be called a companion piece to Sasi’s Anubandham (1985) and Aalkkoottathil Thaniye (1984) — the milieu, the familial conflicts, and individuals going through an existential crisis.

But he gets the approval of Time (Pawan Kalyan) to go back and live his life. The lucky Markandeya suddenly wakes up alive, except he does not just come back to life, even his torn clothes somehow get restored. It is the smaller, illogical things like these in Bro, that make it hard to completely immerse in the story and be moved by it. Directed by Samuthirakani, Bro stars actors Pawan Kalyan, Sai Dharam Tej, Ketika Sharma, Rohini Molleti, Priya Varrier, Vennela Kishore, and others. The film is a remake of the Tamil film Vinodhaya Sitham. Markandeya, who is burdened with family responsibilities, dies in an accident. But he gets an opportunity...

OpinionThere are very few films that have succeeded in portraying the various complexities of infidelity, and stories involving adultery have always let men off by a large margin while women rarely get a chance of redemption.Paravai Kootil Vaazhum Maangal, a segment from the freshly released anthology Modern Love: Chennai directed by Bharathi Raja, dabbles with adultery. It has opened a can of worms on social media with a section of critics eulogising the “revolutionary writing”, while many are ticked off by how the narrative seems to have opportunely disengaged the man from the mess he created in the first place. Ravi (Kishore), a much-married man, falls in love with a woman on a train, they have a wistful courtship in the backdrop of old Ilayaraja songs and things sail without complications until he decides to break the news to his wife.

The fifth episode of Modern Love Chennai, directed by Bharathiraja, Paravai Kootil Vaazhum Maangal, loosely translated to “Gazelles that reside in a bird’s nest,” takes the viewers through a whirlwind story of marriage, infidelity, and divorce. How easy or hard is it to decide to get out of a marriage? How hard is it to make a decision that would change the course of your life?
Modern Love Chennai Episode 5 begins with Revathi heading out with her kids to drop them off at school. Meanwhile, Rohini is stressed out about a phone call. The two women are connected at that point, and as the episode goes on, we get to see how that works. The story goes back to a while ago when Rohini and Ravi ran into each other inside the Chennai metro over a tiny confusion regarding their phones, which are of the same model and have the same ringtone.

Review'Modern Love: Chennai' must be applauded for breaking Kollywood tropes, but how can movies on romance, posited to tell “locally rooted stories” placed in Tamil Nadu, mysteriously remove caste from the equation?Modern Love-fever is going nowhere any time soon, it seems. The English language short film anthology created by John Carney, after a two-season run, spawned Modern Love: Mumbai and Modern Love: Hyderabad, traveling from love stories set across Europe and the US to South Asia—all produced by Amazon Prime. The latest iteration titled Modern Love: Chennai, boasts a directorial list that includes Bharathiraja and Thiagarajan Kumaraja. Many will know Thiagarajan for his film Super Deluxe which represents a marked shift in the kind of stories told in Kollywood, though not without flaws. The popular director also took on the role of creator for Modern Love: Chennai, an ambitious project. So how does this much anticipated six-part anthology fare?...

However, Dalits and people from oppressed castes are routinely forced into sanitation work, in many cases resulting tragically in their deaths. Though Rs 10 lakh is to be provided as compensation to the victim’s family, there have been lapses in processing it in a majority of the cases. The number of deaths caused by manual scavenging is usually more than what government records show.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) could have done better in naming the rocket that will compete with the likes of Ariane, and Falcon rockets in the global market with a better name than the unimaginative LVM3 is the general view gleaned by Ians.

On October 23, Isro’s Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-MkIII (Gslv MkIII), renamed LVM3 (Launch Vehicle Mk3) put into orbit UK-based OneWeb’s 36 satellites successfully.
Though the Gslv MkIII and the LVM3 are same, the rocket flying Indian satellite will be badged as Gslv MkIII and the one that flies with third party satellites will be badged as LVM3.
