After scoring a blockbuster with Magadheera, Ram Charan featured in ‘Orange’ a realistic love drama that had a completely tonal contrast when compared to that of Magadheera. The drastic change in genres didn’t help the cause. The audience were hoping for a proper action thriller from Ram Charan after Magadheera, but they were served an intense love drama that had very little entertainment value. Also, Orange did not have any commercial elements. This is one of the main reasons why the film failed to click at the box office. There is no denying the fact that Orange has a follower base and a section of the audience adores the film. But as far as the box office parameters are concerned, Orange is a dud. Following which, Ram Charan never signed a full-on love drama. He has mostly been picking films that cater to all sections of the audience.
Now, Akhil Akkineni is coming up with Most Eligible Bachelor, which is billed to be a proper love drama with a slice of life theme, much like Ram Charan’s Orange. Most Eligible Bachelor is based on two individuals, Akhil, and Pooja Hegde who have a completely different approach in regard to marriage. While Pooja is more matured, Akhil believes that having a good career is a pivotal step ahead of marriage and later realizes that he is really confused about picking his life partner. Well, Orange has a plot that is very similar to that of Most Eligible Bachelor’s.
But the makers of Most Eligible Bachelor are not repeating the same mistake as with Orange. This time around, they have infused Most Eligible Bachelor with a whole lot of entertainment value, as shown in the trailer. The trailer implied that there’s a fair bit of comedy, romance, and other commercial elements in the Akhil Akkineni and Pooja Hegde starrer. The makers of the Akhil starrer are making sure that it caters to all sections of the audience. Also, it has a more contemporary take on modern day relationships. It remains to be seen if Akhil can score a hit with a genre that didn’t work very well for Ram Charan.

Vishwak Sen’s CULT Teaser Draws Squid Game Comparisons
Exactly a week after the disappointing release of Funky, young and talented actor Vishwak Sen unveiled the teaser of his upcoming film CULT, seemingly aiming to shift focus from the setback.
The teaser projects a dark, violent action backdrop set largely inside a pub. Packed with intense visuals and bloodshed, CULT appears to rely heavily on raw aggression and stylized brutality to make an impact. Vishwak Sen has been vocal about the uniqueness of the project, building curiosity around the hashtag #CULT.
However, despite the effort, the teaser hasn’t fully impressed Gen Z viewers. Many feel the concept resembles the globally popular Netflix series Squid Game. The visuals of an animated character announcing a deadly game, followed by participants being eliminated, strongly remind audiences of the survival-game format that made Squid Game a sensation.
Interestingly, Vishwak Sen mentioned that the Hollywood party drama Project X served as partial inspiration. While Project X revolves around an out-of-control party with unexpected guests, CULT seems to blend that chaotic setting with a survival-game element, creating comparisons that are hard to ignore.
If the storyline turns out to be too close to already established global content, it may invite criticism rather than appreciation — especially from younger audiences who are quick to spot similarities. Ultimately, the film’s fate will depend on whether CULT offers a fresh narrative twist beyond what the teaser currently suggests.
