*"Thandel"* in the North America: Hits a Minor Benchmark While Eyeing Higher Box Office Numbers.

Insider reports suggest that Sreeleela is facing scheduling conflicts that have made it difficult for her to allocate time for the movie. A major chunk of her scenes remains incomplete, causing setbacks in the overall shooting timeline. All eyes are excited for the release of the promos for Tollywood Collection Vijay Deverakonda’s much-anticipated action-packed spy film, provisionally titled VD12. The announcement read, "In the tale of a KING destined to ascend to his throne comes a epic addition. In a noteworthy development, acclaimed Kollywood actor Suriya will be offering his voice for the Tamil version of the VD12 teaser. The master @Suriya_offl gives his voice to the #VD12 Tamil Teaser! Get ready for Feb 12th!!" The film also features Bhagyashri Borse as the female protagonist. The announcement and teaser are scheduled to be released on February 12, available in three languages—Telugu, Tamil, Hindi. The actor has completed his dubbing, and a photo featuring Suriya alongside VD12 director Gowtam Tinnanuri was shared by the production team on X this evening. VD12 is being produced collaboratively by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the banners of Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, with Anirudh Ravichander composing the soundtrack. Additionally, actors Ranbir Kapoor and NTR will voice for the Hindi and Telugu teasers, respectively. She added, ‘People have told me that "Game Changer" is a good film, and I cherish the appreciation for my work.’ To go into all aspects, we’d need an in-depth conversation lasting 40 minutes or more. In a recent interaction on X (formerly Twitter), a fan asked about his depiction of actress Charmme Kaur in a daring manner within the 2004 devotional film Sri Anjaneyam. Currently, the director of Khadgam has not revealed information about his next project, leaving fans eagerly awaiting his return to the cinematic landscape. Stay tuned for updates. Known for his engagement with followers, he often replies to queries related to his past projects. Although the movie didn’t perform well commercially, it maintains a devoted fan following. Responding to the query, Krishna Vamsi expressed: "Thappenandi… Apologies… desperate times, desperate measures, desperate deeds," with folded hands emojis as a symbol of apology regarding his work on the film. Krishna Vamsi, the highly regarded creative director, recently helmed the film Ranga Maarthaanda, which garnered critical praise but underperformed at the box office. Under the direction of Chandoo Mondeti and bankrolled by producer Bunny Vas under the production house Allu Aravind’s Geetha Arts, "Thandel" boasts a chartbuster music by rockstar DSP, which is a key attraction of this engaging love story. For certain projects, artists give their all, and "Game Changer" is a project I deeply connected with. She stated, ‘Talking about "Game Changer" deserves its own conversation.’ The reasons behind its outcome are evident. Conversely, Dilruba has elicited minimal interest thus far, with its promotional activities still not begun, leading to rumors regarding a potential postponement. Laila, featuring Vishwak Sen, is particularly in need of a successful debut, especially in light of his recent string of underperforming films. With only two weeks left until the release, the marketing initiatives have not lived up to expectations. Without an increase in promotional activities, the opening performances of all three films are likely to suffer. Valentine’s Day is anticipated to be significant this year, with three films—Laila, Brahma Anandam, and Dilruba—set for release on February 14, 2025. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of excitement surrounding these films, as the production teams have chosen for a subdued promotional strategy. It will be interesting to observe how the situation develops in the days ahead. The third film, Brahma Anandam, boasts a remarkable cast, including the esteemed Brahmanandam and his son Goutham.
