Actress Anu Emmanuel Exclusive Interview | The Girlfriend Movie | Rashmika Mandanna
Vijay’s Jana Nayagan Set as Grand Cinematic Farewell
For over three decades, Superstar Rajinikanth reigned supreme in Tamil cinema, enjoying unmatched stardom and a fan following that extended far beyond Tamil Nadu. Around a decade ago, however, Vijay rose to prominence with blockbusters like Thupakki, Kaththi, and Mersal, surpassing even Rajinikanth in box office success and establishing himself as Tamil cinema’s leading star.
Now, as Vijay prepares to step into politics, his upcoming film Jana Nayagan is expected to be his cinematic farewell. Fans and industry insiders anticipate one final blockbuster before he embarks on his political journey. While a return to films remains a possibility depending on his political path, Jana Nayagan is being crafted as a memorable sendoff.
The film’s climax, originally designed to be deeply emotional, has been fine-tuned following Vijay’s input. The finale will celebrate his illustrious cinematic journey and the enduring bond he shares with the industry. Directors closely associated with Vijay, including Atlee, Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Nelson, are set to make cameo appearances in a symbolic sequence where Vijay passes the baton to the next generation of filmmakers and stars.
Adding to the spectacle, the recently released song Thalapathy Kacheri will feature a high-energy one-minute dance sequence towards the end. The film will close with a montage of Vijay’s iconic moments, culminating in his signature bow as a final salute to his fans—a fitting tribute to a legendary career.

Konda Surekha Clarifies Nagarjuna Remarks
Minister Konda Surekha has issued a clarification on social media regarding her earlier comments about Tollywood actor Akkineni Nagarjuna. In her post, she emphasized that her remarks were never intended to offend or disrespect Nagarjuna or his family.
“I want to clarify that the statement I made about Nagarjuna Garu was not meant to hurt him or any of his family members. I had no intention of causing pain or defaming them in any way. I regret if my words gave a wrong impression, and I hereby withdraw those remarks,” Surekha wrote.
Her post has attracted attention as the legal case is still ongoing, with many seeing it as an attempt to resolve the issue peacefully.
Previously, while criticizing K T Rama Rao (KTR), Surekha had made objectionable remarks about Nagarjuna’s family and Samantha, which angered the actor. Although she had apologized earlier on social media, Nagarjuna chose to pursue legal action.
However, some observers have noted that Surekha’s recent clarification does not specifically mention Samantha, who was also reportedly hurt by the earlier remarks. Many feel it would have been more appropriate to include her name while expressing regret.
Peddi First Single Chikiri Chikiri Becomes Chartbuster, Film Hype Builds
Music has become one of the biggest crowd-pullers in today’s cinema. A hit song can significantly influence a film’s opening, regardless of its scale. Keeping this in mind, the team of Peddi is adopting a music-first strategy to maintain the buzz leading up to the release.
Starring Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor, Peddi is directed by Buchi Babu Sana with music composed by A.R. Rahman. The first single, Chikiri Chikiri, was released recently and recorded massive numbers across all platforms, quickly turning into a chartbuster with its catchy tune and peppy vibe.
Interestingly, the makers released the song five months before the film’s release, a rare and risky move in today’s times. However, the strategy seems to be paying off: the song is keeping the hype alive and generating anticipation for the film. The team is reportedly planning to release the second song around New Year’s, which is said to be Ram Charan’s theme song, leaning towards a more mass-appeal style, in contrast to the playful romantic vibe of Chikiri Chikiri.
Buchi Babu Sana appears to be following a tried-and-tested formula. His debut film faced delays due to the pandemic, but its songs became major hits, helping create massive buzz by the time the movie released. That accidental success now seems to have evolved into a well-planned promotional strategy for Peddi.
The film also features Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, and Divyendu Sharma in key roles. Produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under Vriddhi Cinemas in association with Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings, Peddi is scheduled for a grand theatrical release on March 27, 2026.

Aamir Khan-Rajkumar Hirani Dadasaheb Phalke Biopic Put on Hold
SS Rajamouli had initially planned to present a film on the life of Dadasaheb Phalke, rather than direct it himself. The project was to be helmed by Nitin Kakkar, with NTR reportedly considered for the lead role. While there have been rumors of the film being shelved, its current status remains unclear.
Meanwhile, another film on the same concept, a collaboration between Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani, is also reportedly facing the axe. The Phalke family had supported Hirani’s project and were happy with its progress, having earlier raised objections to Rajamouli’s vision. However, due to script issues, the Aamir-Hirani film has reportedly been put on hold.
According to reports, “Aamir felt that the script is too dry for today’s audience and lacked the humour expected from their collaborations. After several rewrite sessions, the duo collectively decided to pause the project.”
Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani are known for their perfectionist approach, delivering iconic hits like 3 Idiots and other blockbusters. With this new project now shelved, it remains to be seen if another filmmaker will attempt to bring Dadasaheb Phalke’s life to the big screen.
U.S. Holidays in November 2025
November is a significant month for celebrations and observances in the United States. In 2025, the month features two major federal holidays—Veterans Day and Thanksgiving Day—both of which are widely recognized and observed across the country. On these days, government offices, banks, and many private businesses close to allow citizens to participate in national traditions and spend time with family.
Veterans Day 2025
Veterans Day will be observed on Tuesday, November 11, 2025. This federal holiday is dedicated to honoring the brave men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Communities nationwide commemorate the day with parades, memorial services, and moments of silence in recognition of veterans’ sacrifices. Schools, federal offices, and several private institutions typically remain closed in observance.
Thanksgiving Day 2025
Thanksgiving Day falls on Thursday, November 27, 2025. Considered one of the most cherished American holidays, Thanksgiving focuses on gratitude, togetherness, and traditional family meals. Households gather to enjoy dishes such as roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie. The holiday also marks the beginning of the festive winter season.
Many workplaces and educational institutions also provide leave on Friday, November 28, widely known as Black Friday. Though not a federal holiday, it is recognized nationwide as the start of the Christmas shopping season, known for major retail sales and extended store hours. This often results in a long four-day weekend for many Americans.
Other Notable Observances
Election Day will occur on Tuesday, November 4, 2025. While not a federal holiday, some states and school districts may grant time or close facilities to encourage voter participation.
Black Friday (November 28, 2025), while not a federal holiday, remains one of the busiest shopping days of the year and is widely celebrated.
Summary
November 2025 includes two primary U.S. federal holidays: Veterans Day on November 11 and Thanksgiving Day on November 27. Additional observances such as Election Day and the day after Thanksgiving contribute to making the month meaningful, reflective, and family-focused, offering many Americans opportunities to rest, celebrate, and reconnect.
Maa Vande: Biopic on PM Narendra Modi Highlights His Bond with Mother
A new biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been officially announced. Titled Maa Vande, the film will chronicle Modi’s journey from childhood to becoming India’s top leader.
Directed by Kranthi Kumar CH, the film carries the tagline “The Anthem of a Mother” and emphasizes Modi’s deep emotional bond with his mother, Heeraben, whose guidance and values profoundly influenced his life. Modi has often credited his mother’s strength and simplicity for shaping his path, particularly during challenging times following his father’s demise.
Malayalam actor Unni Mukundan will portray Narendra Modi, while Bollywood actress Raveena Tandon will play Heeraben. Unni Mukundan, who grew up in Ahmedabad during Modi’s tenure as Chief Minister, called it an honor to step into the role. He added that the film will explore “the man beyond the statesman,” highlighting the pivotal role of his mother in his life.
Maa Vande is being produced as a big-budget pan-India film under Silver Cast Creations, with Veer Reddy as producer. The project boasts a top-tier technical team, including cinematography by K.K. Senthil Kumar, music by Ravi Basrur, editing by Sreekar Prasad, production design by Sabu Cyril, and action choreography by King Solomon.
The film promises to depict Modi’s journey with emotional depth and grandeur. While political biopics are not new, Maa Vande stands out for centering the story on his mother and the influence she had in shaping India’s Prime Minister.
