Pushpak, the 1987 film starring Kamal Haasan, will be re-released in cinema halls soon, the makers have announced.

Directed by Singeetham Srinivasa Rao, the black comedy drama was premiered on November 27, 1987.


Originally titled Pushpaka Vimana in Kannada, the film was released as Pushpaka Vimanam in Telugu, Pesum Padam in Tamil, Pushpakvimanam in Malayalam and Pushpak in Hindi.

Production house Raaj Kamal Films International shared the announcement on its official X page Saturday evening.

"#Pushpak #Pesumpadam, a pioneer in silent black comedy and an iconic masterpiece of Indian cinema, will be re-released in theatres soon. #Ulaganayagan #KamalHaasan #SingeethamSrinivasaRao @ikamalhaasan," the banner said in the post.

According to a press release, Pushpak revolves around an unemployed graduate who encounters a drunk rich unconscious man and takes over his lifestyle after keeping him as a prisoner.

"However, he does not realise the dangers he has brought upon himself because a hired killer believes him to be his target," read the logline of the film, which has no dialogue.

It also stars Amala, Samir Khakhar, Tinu Anand, K S Ramesh, Farida Jalal, Pratap Potan, Lokanath, P L Narayana and Ramya.

Mamitha Baiju joins Suriya for Venky Atluri’s new film as shoot begins in Hyderabad

Mamitha Baiju has landed a major break in her career as she will be starring opposite Suriya in his next film, directed by Venky Atluri. The official launch of the project, Suriya’s 46th, took place recently in Hyderabad with a traditional puja ceremony. The film brings together a strong cast that includes Raveena Tandon and Radhika Sarathkumar and is being backed by Sithara Entertainments. G.V. Prakash Kumar will handle the music, while Nimish Ravi is in charge of cinematography.

For Mamitha, this casting carries more weight than just another role. She has been open in interviews about how much she has admired Suriya from a young age and how much she has wanted to work with him. The two almost shared screen space earlier in Vanangaan, but the project underwent major changes. Suriya left the film due to creative differences, and Mamitha was eventually replaced. Though she had already shot scenes with him, that version of the film never saw the light of day.

Did Theo James just outshine Henry Cavill in the race to become James Bond?

The next James Bond hasn’t been confirmed yet, but one name has quietly moved ahead of the rest, and that is Theo James. While the usual suspects like Henry Cavill and Aaron Taylor-Johnson remain strong contenders, James has now become the frontrunner in the betting race.

According to UK bookmakers BetMGM, James currently sits at the top with odds of 6/4, followed by Cavill at 3/1. This shift follows the release of the Dolce & Gabbana campaign that featured James in a beachside fragrance advert. The images, shot in Capri and dripping with Bond-like energy, show him stepping out of the sea in tight white briefs, alongside model Vittoria Ceretti. It’s a stunning image that instantly reminded people of Daniel Craig’s memorable entrance in Casino Royale.
