Tamannaah Bhatia is celebrating a significant milestone as “Baahubali: The Beginning” turns 10 this year. The film, directed by SS Rajamouli, not only redefined Indian cinema but became a cultural phenomenon that few could have predicted. Released on July 10, 2015, with Prabhas in the lead role, it marked a groundbreaking moment for the Telugu film industry, as it was the first Telugu movie to receive a worldwide release in Hindi.

Bhatia, who embodied the fierce warrior Avantika in the epic saga, reflected on the film’s profound impact. “Baahubali was a magical movie that changed everything for us.

Salman Khan’s much-anticipated action film, “Sikandar,” hit the theatres today, and it has quickly resonated with fans and critics alike, praised for its gripping screenplay and stellar performances. Directed by AR Murugadoss, the film also features Rashmika Mandanna, marking their on-screen collaboration for the first time.

Early reviews highlight the film’s emotional depth and powerful storytelling. One fan enthusiastically shared, “No fan of #SalmanKhan will leave without enjoying it. #Sikandar is now in theaters – a guaranteed blockbuster!” Another viewer tweeted, “#SikandarReview: A mass entertainer with a heartwarming climax. #SalmanKhan delivers a performance like never before. The background score is just as compelling as #Jawan. This is a ‘paisa vasool’ movie that you should catch on the first day.”

As “Sikandar” lights up cinemas across the country, it has also made waves internationally, recently illuminating Dubai’s skyline as part of its promotional efforts, a testament to its grandeur.

In addition to Khan and Mandanna, the film features a talented cast, including Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, Anjini Dhawan, and Kajal Aggarwal in significant roles. With breathtaking cinematography by S. Thirunavukarasu and an engaging soundtrack composed by Pritam, “Sikandar” promises a full cinematic experience.

The film’s advance bookings signal tremendous success, with reports indicating that it has already crossed the ₹8 crore mark before its official release. According to Sacnilk, “Sikandar” achieved remarkable milestones even in the pre-release phase, selling over 100,000 tickets and accumulating ₹8.81 crore in earnings.

However, the excitement surrounding the film has been marred by piracy issues. Notorious sites like Tamilrockers and Movierulz have illegally leaked the full movie online, offering unauthorized downloads. Such leaks pose a significant threat to the film’s box office performance, and they highlight the ongoing struggle Bollywood faces against piracy.

While it might be tempting to download pirated content, it’s crucial to understand the implications. Engaging in piracy is illegal and can lead to substantial fines or even jail time. Moreover, piracy undermines the immense effort of countless individuals who contribute to the filmmaking process, from directors to technical crews. A robust box office performance not only benefits the current film but also supports future projects in the industry.

For true Bollywood enthusiasts, supporting filmmakers by choosing to watch “Sikandar” through legitimate channels is essential. Enjoy the magic of cinema and discourage piracy by enjoying the film responsibly in theaters.
