Teja Sajja to Star in Zombie Reddy 2
Zombie Reddy, one of the first Telugu films set against a zombie backdrop, made waves with its satirical take on COVID-19, infused with the unique flavor of Rayalaseema. Now, a sequel is already in the works. Director Prashanth Varma is set to team up again with Teja Sajja for Zombie Reddy 2.
The makers aim to take the sequel to a whole new level, targeting both national and international audiences. Teja Sajja, who has recently gained nationwide recognition, shared, “Part two is going to be on another level, at an international standard. We are not missing out on fun. This time, we want to deliver a zombie film to international audiences. Usually, we watch international films, but now we are going to deliver one.”
Telugu cinema has increasingly gained international reach, and a zombie-themed film from the region is expected to attract attention from global audiences. With technical standards of Telugu films continually improving, the success of Teja’s Mirai could play a pivotal role in assembling the best resources for Zombie Reddy 2. His previous hit, HanuMan, has already added momentum to his growing career, making fans eagerly anticipate what’s next in this quirky zombie saga.
Thalapathy Vijay-BJP Alliance in Tamil Nadu Looks Unlikely
Tamil Nadu is gearing up for what promises to be one of its most fiercely contested assembly elections in 2026. The political heat is further intensified with the debut of superstar Thalapathy Vijay’s party, TVK, in the electoral arena.
Speculation has been rife about a possible alliance between TVK and the BJP, with many suggesting that Vijay might join hands with the NDA for the upcoming polls. However, Vijay has occasionally criticized the BJP on various issues, signaling a cautious distance. Interestingly, the BJP has largely refrained from retaliating, seemingly keeping the door open for future possibilities.
Adding more clarity to the situation, former Tamil Nadu BJP president Annamalai recently indicated that an alliance between Vijay and the NDA seems unlikely. “Vijay is very clear about the kind of politics he wants to pursue. He sees the BJP as an ideological opponent and has consistently followed this stance over the past 5-6 months. Given this, I don’t see any possibility of a political alignment happening,” Annamalai remarked.
The fundamental ideological differences between TVK and BJP appear to be the main hurdle. With just about six months remaining before the elections, all eyes will be on how alliances shape up in the coming months.
Samantha Opens Up About Life Changes After Myositis Battle
Star actress Samantha continues to stay in the limelight, and her recent statements have once again gone viral on social media. In a recent interview, she opened up about the changes she experienced and the lessons she learned after battling myositis.
Speaking at an event in Delhi, Samantha revealed that her fight against myositis completely transformed her perspective on life. She shared that the journey taught her many new things and helped her understand how to prioritize effectively.
Samantha reflected on her career, stating that there were times when she released five films in a single year, which she considered a personal success. She admitted that earlier, her focus was always on acting in consecutive films, being part of big blockbuster projects, and staying in the top-10 list of actors. However, her mindset has shifted over time. She acknowledged that she is currently not in the top-10 and that it has been two years since her last lead-role release, yet she feels content with her journey. She emphasized that even without films worth ₹1000 crores, she is happy with what she has achieved.
Samantha also mentioned that in the past, she used to worry about every detail, fearing someone might take her place in the industry. But now, she has stopped overthinking and recognizes that people follow her because of her glamour and films. This awareness inspired her to conduct health-focused podcasts, ensuring that health information is easily accessible without the need for people to search for it. She has been running this initiative for the past year, aiming to make wellness guidance readily available.

Director Prashanth Neel, who gained national recognition with the monumental successes of KGF and KGF Chapter 2, followed up with Salaar, which also turned into a pan-Indian hit, further cementing his reputation for delivering high-octane blockbusters.

Dragon promises to be a high-octane action drama, packed with breathtaking fight sequences, stunning visuals, and raw, emotional storytelling. Neel remains confident that War 2’s performance will not affect Dragon’s market potential.

Delhi HC Bans Unauthorized Use of Aishwarya Rai’s Photos
Celebrities often face issues with unauthorized use of their images. While many brands officially sign them as ambassadors to cash in on their popularity, others misuse their photos without permission, sometimes in ways that damage their reputation. Several stars have raised concerns, even approaching the courts to protect their image rights.
In a recent development, former Miss World and renowned actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan moved the Delhi High Court through a mediator, alleging unauthorized and defamatory use of her pictures. Acting in her favor, the court passed strict orders prohibiting any further misuse of her photographs without consent.
The court noted that misusing Aishwarya’s images not only causes her financial loss but also tarnishes her dignity and reputation. It emphasized the protection of publicity and personal rights, directing that all URLs mentioned in her petition be immediately blocked or taken down. E-commerce websites, Google, and other platforms were instructed to comply within 72 hours, with the Centre’s IT and Information Department ensuring complete action within seven days. The next hearing is scheduled for January 15.
The case arose after Aishwarya’s lawyer, Sandeep Sethi, argued that her photos were being morphed using Artificial Intelligence for obscene content, while some entities misused her name and image to make money. One company even falsely projected her as its chairperson by printing her photo on its letterhead. Others were found selling T-shirts and wallpapers with her images, violating her rights.
Considering these violations, the court issued a strong directive barring the use of Aishwarya Rai’s photos without permission until further orders, reinforcing the need to safeguard celebrity identity rights in the digital era.
SC to Hear Kangana Ranaut’s Plea in Farmers’ Protest Defamation Case
New Delhi: The Supreme Court will on September 12 hear a plea filed by actor and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut, challenging the Punjab and Haryana High Court’s refusal to quash a defamation case against her. The case stems from her alleged defamatory remarks during the 2020–21 farmers’ protest. A bench comprising Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta is scheduled to take up the matter.
The case was filed by Mahinder Kaur (73), a resident of Punjab’s Bathinda district, who participated in the protests. In her complaint, Kaur alleged that Ranaut wrongly identified her as Bilkis Bano, the elderly protestor from Shaheen Bagh, in a retweet. She claimed the remarks were “false and defamatory,” damaging her dignity and reputation.
In its August 1 order, the High Court dismissed Ranaut’s plea, holding that there were specific allegations against the petitioner and that the Bathinda magistrate had prima facie found sufficient grounds to proceed under Section 499 of the IPC (now repealed). The High Court said the complaint could not be dismissed as mala fide, since it was aimed at protecting the complainant’s reputation.
Ranaut had earlier filed a petition under Section 482 CrPC seeking to quash both the defamation complaint and the summoning order of February 22, 2022 issued by the Bathinda trial court. Her counsel argued that the magistrate acted improperly by summoning her without receiving a confirmation report from Twitter Communications India Private Limited (TCIPL). However, Justice Dahiya observed that TCIPL was not in control of Twitter and its non-response could not negate the magistrate’s jurisdiction under Section 202 CrPC.
Kaur, who actively took part in sit-ins and demonstrations during the farmers’ agitation, maintained that she had no connection to Bilkis Bano of Shaheen Bagh, contrary to Ranaut’s social media post. She alleged that the actor’s comments hurt her pride and honour, amounting to defamation.
The matter will now be considered by the Supreme Court, which will decide on the maintainability of the complaint and whether the trial proceedings against Ranaut should continue.
