Liger

Liger actor Vijay Deverakonda has apparently returned 6 crores from his pay to producers after his Bollywood debut film Liger failed miserably at the box office. The movie released on August 25 was not only a disaster at the box office but also failed to impress the critics.

Backed by Karan Johar’s Dharma productions Ananya Pandey-Vijay Deverakonda starrer was directed by Puri Jagannadh. Reportedly, Liger had a budget of more than 100 crores and now that the movie has failed at the box office, Vijay Deverakonda decided to compensate producer Charmme Kaur by returning 6 crores from his remuneration.

Liger, which also featured the cameo of veteran boxing champion Mike Tyson was also boycotted by the tweeple. The Indian audience also called Vijay arrogant when he was asked about his reaction over the boycott and he said, “Dekh Lenge Kon hain”.

The film was criticized for it’s below average screenplay, Ananya’s poor acting and tweeple also claimed that the movie promotes misogynic ideas.

Vijay Deverakonda featured as the titular MMA fighter boxer alongside Ananya Panday, Ronit Roy and Ramya Krishna in Liger. The movie was released in five languages and the Pan-India movie seems to be a fit for some and a misfit for others.

However, Vijay Deverakonda’s physical transformation was being applauded by tweeple but Ananya Pandey’s over acting is also a reason behind Liger’s bad reviews. As per the Twitter reaction of Liger, the action-thriller seems like a waste of money, talent and time. With such reach, power, money and man power, any filmmaker can overcome hurdles to make a good film but seems like Dharma productions was just gearing up for yet another flop.

The much-awaited and highly anticipated Bollywood comedy-drama Crew was released in cinemas on Friday. The film has been directed by Rajesh Krishnan and stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tabu and Kriti Sanon in important roles. Crew is getting mixed reviews from the audience where some social media users praised the comedy drama while others called the film as average.

One X user Sumit Kadel gave Crew a 4 star rating and said the film is a sure shot super hit. He said Crew takes flight as a supremely entertaining film, skillfully weaving together situational comedy, heist thrills, and drama into a captivating narrative. Inspired by the escapades of a real airline owner on the run from India, the film is a rollercoaster ride of entertainment from beginning to end.

Central to the film’s success is the fantastic camaraderie between its leading ladies: Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tabu and Kriti Sanon. Their chemistry is electric, fueled by superb one liners. Each actress delivers a brilliant performance, elevating the impact of the film.

Director Rajesh Krishnan’s direction is top notch, navigating the challenges of crafting a heist film with a female-led cast with finesse. While the film effectively balances drama, comedy and emotions, sharper writing in the second half, particularly during the heist sequences, could have intensified its impact.

Cameo appearances by Diljit Dosanjh and Kapil Sharma are very good. Crew doesn’t shy away from shedding light on the darker realities of the airline aviation sectors, offering a glimpse into the financial struggles faced by cabin crews. The film’s chartbuster music and well executed situational comedy are major highlights, keeping audiences thoroughly entertained throughout.

Overall Crew is a well crafted entertainer that is sure to resonate with audiences, especially women. With its women combination of humour, thrills and heart, it’s a sure shot super hit.
