HHVM Pre-Release Events Planned in Varanasi and Tirupati
With the release of Hari Hara Veera Mallu fast approaching, the makers are ramping up promotional activities for Pawan Kalyan’s much-anticipated period action drama. According to the latest reports, two grand pre-release events are in the pipeline—one in Varanasi on July 17 and another in Tirupati on July 19.
Adding to the buzz, sources suggest that Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath may attend the Varanasi event as the chief guest. If confirmed, this would mark a significant moment for the film’s outreach, particularly in North India. Given the strong support base of the BJP in states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Uttarakhand—and considering that Pawan Kalyan’s Janasena Party is a BJP ally—Yogi’s presence could substantially boost the film’s visibility in the northern belt.
Hari Hara Veera Mallu carries strong themes rooted in Sanatana Dharma and showcases Pawan Kalyan as a fierce warrior who rises against the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. These elements are expected to resonate well with audiences aligned with cultural and nationalist sentiments, particularly among BJP followers.
If Yogi Adityanath indeed shares the stage with Pawan Kalyan at the Varanasi event, it could generate massive nationwide attention and draw northern audiences to the film. More details about the event and the CM’s attendance are expected to be officially confirmed in the coming days.
Directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, with Jyothi Krisna also involved in key creative aspects, Hari Hara Veera Mallu is scheduled for a global release on July 24. The film’s music is composed by MM Keeravani, and it is presented by AM Ratnam under the production of A. Dayakar Rao.
Samantha Thanks Telugu Audience in Emotional TANA 2025 Speech
Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu made a heartfelt appearance at the 2025 edition of the Telugu Association of North America (TANA) event, where she addressed the Telugu diaspora with an emotional and sincere speech. Known for her candid and grounded nature, Samantha reflected on her 15-year journey in the film industry and the unwavering support she has received from Telugu audiences around the world.
Standing before a packed audience, Samantha said, “It took me 15 years to finally stand here and say thank you.” She recalled how, from the moment she debuted in Ye Maaya Chesave, she felt embraced and supported by Telugu viewers. Despite her success over the years, she shared that she never had a platform like this to truly express her gratitude. “You made me feel like one of your own,” she added, fighting back tears.
The actress also spoke about stepping into a new phase of her career as a producer. Her debut production, Shubam, has already garnered appreciation—especially from the North American audience. Samantha noted that in every career decision she makes, her foremost thought is whether the Telugu audience would be proud of her. “That sense of responsibility is what drives me,” she said.
Samantha fondly remembered the success of her film Oh Baby in the U.S., expressing amazement at its milestone of crossing the million-dollar mark in collections. “Even if you are far in distance, you have always been close to my heart,” she told the diaspora, acknowledging the emotional strength and identity the audience has given her over the years.
Her speech received a warm and emotional response from the crowd, many of whom have followed her journey since the very beginning. Samantha’s presence at TANA 2025 was more than just a star appearance—it was a moving reminder of the deep bond between Telugu cinema and its global audience. Her words resonated with authenticity, leaving a lasting impression.
Stalin Slams Hindi Imposition, Warns BJP Over Education Funds
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has once again voiced strong opposition to the imposition of Hindi in the education system, warning against undermining India’s linguistic and cultural diversity. His latest remarks came in the context of growing resistance to the three-language policy in states beyond Tamil Nadu, notably Maharashtra.
Stalin lauded Maharashtra’s recent stance, particularly acknowledging the speeches by Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray, who spoke out against making Hindi mandatory in schools. He stated that the anti-Hindi imposition movement, which began in Tamil Nadu, is now gaining traction nationally.
The Chief Minister accused the BJP-led central government of attempting to link central educational funds to the mandatory implementation of Hindi as a third language—a move he labeled as unjust. He claimed that the BJP had to scale back its efforts in Maharashtra following public outrage.
Stalin further criticized the Centre for displaying bias towards Hindi and Sanskrit while neglecting other Indian languages. He emphasized that Tamil Nadu’s opposition to Hindi imposition is not rooted in hatred, but in the desire to uphold India’s rich linguistic diversity and protect regional identities.
Concluding his statement, Stalin issued a stern warning to the BJP: if the Centre fails to release the funds owed to Tamil Nadu for education and does not reverse its language policies, the people will respond decisively through the ballot box.
Elon Musk Launches The America Party on July 4
In a surprising political turn, tech billionaire Elon Musk has announced the formation of a new political entity—The America Party—on July 4, a date symbolic of U.S. independence. The move marks a significant shift in Musk’s political stance and follows a reported fallout with former President Donald Trump over a policy Musk referred to as the “Big Beautiful Law.”
In his announcement, Musk criticized the current two-party system, stating that Democrats and Republicans have, in his view, become two sides of the same coin—contributing to what he describes as the erosion of real freedom and progress. With The America Party, Musk aims to return power to the people and offer a fresh political alternative rooted in reform and independence.
The newly launched party has set its sights on the 2026 midterm elections, aiming to secure two to three Senate seats and eight to ten seats in the House of Representatives. While this goal is ambitious, early indicators suggest growing momentum.
On the day of the announcement, Musk conducted a poll on his social media platform, where 1.2 million users participated. Roughly 65% of respondents expressed support for the creation of a new political party—signaling a significant appetite among Americans for change.
Reactions to the announcement are mixed. Critics have dismissed it as another headline-grabbing move from Musk, but supporters believe his vast influence, financial clout, and direct line to millions of followers could turn The America Party into a credible force in the U.S. political arena.
Whether it becomes a disruptive movement or just a footnote in political history, Musk’s entry into politics is already sparking nationwide debate.

Venky Atluri Confirms Lucky Baskhar 2, Rules Out Sir Sequel
Director Venky Atluri has officially put an end to speculation regarding sequels to his recent films Sir (also known as Vaathi in Tamil) and Lucky Baskhar.
In a recent interview, Atluri confirmed that there are no plans for a sequel to Sir, the Dhanush-starrer that resonated with audiences across languages. Despite its success and a climax that left room for continuation, Atluri stated firmly, “No, there won’t be a sequel to Sir.” He explained that the film was always intended to be a standalone story with a complete narrative arc.
However, there’s good news for fans of Lucky Baskhar. Atluri revealed that a sequel to the Dulquer Salmaan-starrer is definitely on the cards. “Lucky Baskhar sequel will happen for sure,” he confirmed, sparking excitement among fans.
Released last year, Lucky Baskhar followed the story of an ordinary bank employee whose life takes a dramatic and unexpected turn. The film was praised for its compelling storytelling and strong performances, earning it a dedicated fan base.
With Sir 2 officially ruled out and Lucky Baskhar 2 confirmed, all eyes are now on Atluri as fans eagerly anticipate the next chapter in Baskhar’s journey.
Dil Raju Champions Honest Promotions with Thammudu
In today’s film industry, where artificial hype often overshadows reality, paid promotions and inflated figures have become commonplace. From manipulated YouTube views to exaggerated box office posters, creating an illusion of success has turned into a marketing norm. However, veteran producer Dil Raju has taken a bold stand against this trend.
After receiving backlash during the promotional phase of Game Changer, Dil Raju reassessed his approach. With his latest production, Thammudu, he made a conscious decision to adopt a path of transparency—eschewing paid campaigns that inflate likes, views, or box office numbers.
The difference was evident. Thammudu’s trailer garnered noticeably fewer views compared to Nithiin’s previous film Robinhood, clearly indicating that no artificial boosting was involved. Even after the film received mixed reviews and opened with a modest ₹4 crore gross worldwide on day one, the team refrained from releasing flashy posters or organizing a celebratory success meet.
In an industry where even underperforming films are often hyped with grand events and exaggerated claims, Dil Raju’s honest approach stood out. He chose not to mislead the audience or the media, and that sincerity has not gone unnoticed.
Many in the industry are now applauding his decision, calling it a refreshing shift toward integrity in film marketing. As audiences grow more discerning, Dil Raju’s move might just inspire others to embrace honesty over hype.
