February 15, 2025, 2:57 pm

Vicky Kaushal’s latest historical action movie, ‘Chhaava’ directed by Laxman Utekar, shined at the box office with 50 crore earnings on its first day worldwide. This film was released on Friday.

It has been produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, officially setting a new record for the biggest opening for a historical Hindi film. This news is confirmed by the makers on Saturday.

‘Chhaava’ as New Trend

The story of the movie revolves around the Maratha warrior king Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. The ‘Chhaava’ movie is derived from the famous Marathi novel Chhava by Shivaji Sawant.

The titular character is Vicky Kaushal, and the supporting cast includes Rashmika Mandanna, Akshaye Khanna, Diana Penty, Ashutosh Rana, and Vineet Kumar Singh.

This film showcases the aftermath of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s passing on the Mughal court and the entire spirit of Maratha resistance.

While domestic collections hit Rs 33.1 crore net, this is part of the reason the global earnings came to Rs 50 crore. Maddock Films took to social media to state, “Yeh ‘Yeh Chhaava ki dahaad hai. Roared like a true warrior king! ??Biggest opening ever for a Historical Hindi Film. ॐ नमः पार्वती पतये हर हर महादेव ??✨ Book your tickets now! ?️” This came with a poster to celebrate the achievement.

Furthermore, she emphasized the importance of staying connected to her Coorgi roots, regardless of her achievements.

She said, “Luckily, it’s not an extra effort that I need to make (to have humility). My brain is already wired in a way… (I know) that all the things that we adore, all the things we enjoy, all these luxuries, can stay or go in an instant. That is something that keeps me grounded and connected to my roots.”

Family and Friends Keep Her Grounded

Moreover, Rashmika credited her family and friends for helping her stay grounded. “They’re the right kind of people in my life, all of whom believe in being grounded… so that also plays a very important part and really helps, you know? Surrounded by such people, I can say I’m in a good space right now!”

Man’s ‘Brutal’ Review of Pushpa 2 Goes Viral | WATCH

December 7, 2024, 4:58 pm

The much-anticipated Allu Arjun-starrer Pushpa 2: The Rule has taken the box office by storm, shattering records and becoming India’s biggest opener in cinematic history. Despite its overwhelming success, not everyone is singing its praises. A social media user has gone viral for his brutal review of the film, labelling it a “waste of time” and sparking a heated debate online.

Mixed Reactions to the Review

In a video posted on social media platform X, the reviewer begins by praising the film, only to quickly backtrack and describe the movie in a dismissive manner. He asserts that only those lacking “basic education” would use positive adjectives to describe the film. His controversial statement, which criticised both the film and the audience’s appreciation of it, has divided opinions.

“This is brutal,” the user wrote alongside the video, which quickly gained traction. While some viewers agreed with the critical review, others defended the movie and its massive success.

Social Media Divided

The review has ignited a storm of responses, with many expressing their support for the film. One user commented, “Sad. I liked the first part,” while another sarcastically added, “The same guy probably thinks Avengers are real.” Some even took to mocking the reviewer, calling him out for his tone and apparent disregard for the film’s fanbase.

A particularly scathing reply read, “No one gives a s**t about this guy and what he says. He has all the right to criticise any movie, but calling people who like the film ‘chapri’ or ‘anpadh’ is egotistical and classist behaviour.”

‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ Continues to Soar

Rashmika Mandanna Celebrates World Bathing Day: Embrace Bathing as Essential Self-Care for Glowing Skin | EXCLUSIVE

June 22, 2024, 3:37 pm

World Bathing Day is celebrated globally to honor the diverse rituals and cultural traditions associated with bathing and cleansing. This year, Rashmika Mandanna, the brand ambassador for ITC Fiama, shares her personal bathing ritual and encourages everyone to view bathing as an essential self-care practice for achieving healthy, glowing skin. Here’s how she stays fresh and rejuvenated throughout the day:

1. What does World Bathing Day mean to you, and why do you think it’s important to celebrate this day?
World Bathing Day is a beautiful reminder to embrace the ritual of bathing as more than just a daily task. For me, it’s about celebrating the time we take for ourselves, turning a routine into a rejuvenating experience. With my favourite ITC Fiama Sandalwood and Patchouli shower gel, I add a touch of indulgence to my everyday routine, transforming it into a moment of calm and indulgence.

2. Bathing has various cultural significances around the world. Are there any traditional bathing practices you follow or find particularly interesting?
Traditional bathing practices, like using natural ingredients in my routine, have always been close to my heart. In my demanding schedule, the scent of sandalwood brings in a sense of tranquility and evokes cherished memories. Incorporating sandalwood into my bathing ritual especially with the ITC Fiama Sandalwood and Patchouli Shower Gel, has helped me stay connected to my roots while enjoying an indulgent and relaxing bath.

3. With increasing awareness about water conservation, how do you balance the need for a luxurious bath with being environmentally conscious?
I try to keep my showers short and efficient most of the time to conserve water and I make it special with my favourite ITC Fiama Sandalwood and Patchouli shower gel, knowing that Fiama shower gel bottles are made from 50% recycled materials. This means I’m pampering myself without compromising on being eco-friendly. Plus, Fiama offers 1.5 l refillable shower gel pouches, so you don’t need to buy new bottles every time. It’s a great way to enjoy a refreshing bath while being mindful of our planet.

4. As an actress, how do you ensure your skin stays healthy and vibrant despite the demands of your profession?
As an actor, my days are usually hectic and is spent largely in front of the camera. So, it is even more important for me to ensure that I maintain a holistic body care and skincare routine. My association with Fiama Sandal has enabled me to include the dual combination of sandalwood oil and Patchouli as the core of my body care. An indulgent shower, after a long day with ITC Fiama Sandalwood and Patchouli Oil shower gel, keeps my skin radiant and rejuvenated. It adds a personal touch to my shower ritual and is an instant mood uplifter. Alongside that, maintaining a balanced diet, staying well-hydrated and a good night’s sleep is super important.

5. What message would you like to give your fans about the importance of self-care and celebrating World Bathing Day
To all my well-wishers out there, I want to emphasize the importance of self-care and embracing your natural beauty. Take time to care for yourself, both inside and out. Surround yourself with positivity and prioritize self-care. Remember, you are unique and beautiful just the way you are so take time to pamper yourself and enjoy the little moments of relaxation.

Deepfake Content: AI apps being used to ‘Nudify women,’ Surging in Popularity

December 11, 2023, 4:27 pm

Twenty-four million individuals visited undressing websites in September alone according to the Hindustan Times. Popular social networks are used by many of these “nudity,” or undressing, businesses for marketing purposes, according to Graphika. For example, the researchers found that since the start of the year, there have been over 2,400% more links on social media, particularly on X and Reddit, promoting undressing applications. The services replicate an image of a person in their underwear using AI. Many services are limited to women.

These applications are a part of a concerning trend whereby developments in artificial intelligence are being used to create and spread non-consensual pornography, or “deepfake pornography,” which is created material. Since the photos are frequently obtained from social media and shared without the subject’s knowledge, agreement, or control, their widespread use is fraught with ethical and legal issues.

Actor Rashmika Mandanna fell prey to a deepfake recently. On the internet, a phony video of her became quite popular.

Actor Tom Hanks used Instagram on October 1st to notify his followers of an alarming instance of deepfake use. When he saw that a dental plan commercial had a convincing deepfake of himself, he felt compelled to warn people, saying, “Beware, I have nothing to do with it.”
