Suriya, Bobby Deol and Disha Patani’s Kanguva hit the big screens on November 13 and it registered a solid opening at the box office. Despite receiving mixed reviews from film critics and fans, it managed to draw substantial audiences to theatres, especially in Tamil-speaking regions.

In other regional markets, Kanguva saw varied results. Its Hindi 3D shows reportedly attracted a modest 11.47 per cent occupancy, whereas the Hindi 2D screenings performed significantly better at 58.12 per cent.

The Telugu 2D shows achieved 12.64 per cent occupancy, while Telugu 3D shows recorded 39.28 per cent. Reportedly, the film’s Telugu and the Hindi dubbed versions earned Rs 5 crore and Rs 3.25 crore, respectively.

The film is expected to perform well during the weekend.

Kanguva has created quite a buzz on social media platforms. While some called the first half of the film ‘boring’ and expressed disappointment over the background music, others praised Suriya’s performance.

A section of social media users also called Kanguva Suriya’s ‘career best’ performance.

Directed by Siva, Kanguva features scenes set 1,500 years in the past and stars Suriya facing off against Bobby. The cast also includes Natarajan Subramaniam, Jagapathi Babu, Yogi Babu, Redin Kingsley, Kovai Sarala, and Ananda.

“Siva came up with this idea of what if we go back a few 100 years… What would happen if our people lived such life and had a complex situation? Let’s picture that and that’s how the whole thing came about,” the actor had said.

Mithun Chakraborty’s Wallet Gets Stolen During BJP Roadshow In Jharkhand, Organisers Request Pickpockets To Return It

Published

on

Actor-turned-politician Mithun Chakraborty found himself in a sticky situation after his wallet was stolen from his pocket during his mega roadshow in Jharkhand on Tuesday. The actor campaigned for BJP in Dhanbad, Jharkhand, and that is when he got pickpocketed, leaving the organisers red-faced.

A video from the rally has now gone viral in which the organisers and other BJP karyakartas can be heard repeatedly requesting the pickpockets to return the veteran star’s wallet. “Whoever has stolen the wallet, please return it to Mithun Da,” a BJP member was seen urging the crowd.

Despite repeated pleas, the wallet was not returned.

Chakraborty led a massive roadshow in the Nirsa Assembly area of Jharkhand to extend his support to BJP candidate Aparna Sen Gupta. Thousands of people gathered at the venue to catch one glimpse of the star, and it led to major chaos and mismanagement at the spot.

Despite security forces in place, the crowd went out of control and rushed towards the stage to click photos and videos of the actor and see him from up close. It was during this chaos that Chakraborty’s wallet was stolen.

Disappointed by the fiasco, Chakraborty concluded the event sooner than expected and rushed back to safety.

Alice Kaushik 'Cuddles' Avinash Mishra As They Share A Bed, Viral Photo Leaves Bigg Boss 18 Fans Divided

Bigg Boss 18 contestants Alice Kaushik and Avinash Mishra have sparked a heated debate online after a photo showed them sharing a bed and cuddling. While the two actors have maintained that they share a close friendship, their recent cozy moment has left fans divided, with some defending their bond and others questioning the boundaries of friendship. For those unversed, Alice is dating her Pandya Store co-star Kanwar Dhillon.

In the photo, which has now circulated widely on social media, Alice and Avinash are seen lying in bed together, with Alice resting comfortably in Avinash’s arms under a blanket.

Netizens react to Alice and Avinash’s viral photo

Some fans viewed the moment as harmless and said that platonic cuddling shouldn’t be criticised. However, a section of netizens tagged the official social media account of Kanwar and asked if this is normal. They pointed out that since Alice has a committed relationship outside the Bigg Boss house, the cuddle might be inappropriate given her personal commitments.

“We are not in their boots, they are matured adults . Let them decide for their own,” a user commented.

“At a moment cuddle is ok..but in night sharing a bed and cuddling like this …when someone is married…i don’t know how his partner can’t have problem in this,” wrote another user.

Another user wrote, “He even kissed her stomach a few days ago. It would’ve been totally okay if both were single but with Alice having marriage plans outside and Avinash hitting on Eisha, this is weird.”

Alice has been in a relationship with Kanwar since several years. The actress, in one of the initial episodes of the show, had revealed how Kanwar proposed to her for marriage. However, Kanwar, in a few interviews outside the show denied this statement of the actress and stated that he did not propose her for marriage but said that she is the kind of girl one would get married to.

This statement of Kanwar was revealed to Alice in one of the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes of the show by host Salman Khan, which led to the actress breaking down.

Reacting to it, Kanwar told ETimes, “Woh duniya ka kaam hai, tawa garam tha aur roti sekhne aa gaye. They just commented watching the promo and did not understand what I was trying to say. Those who have a doubt can call me and ask. I don’t think I need to clarify to those whom I do not know. When things are good, people don’t come to ask right? So what’s the point of poking their nose when something else happens? I know what I was saying, so I do not want to waste my energy in explaining.”
