Nayanthara starrer Netrikann to premiere on Disney+ Hotstar

Nayanthara is one of the biggest names in the South film industry. Her fans are always eager to watch her on the big screen, but now, the actress’ next Tamil film Netrikann is all for a direct-to-digital release on Disney+ Hotstar.

Disney+ Hotstar took to Twitter to make an announcement about it. They posted, “இதோ ஒரு உற்சாகமான அறிவிப்பு! விரைவில் எங்கள் அடுத்த #DisneyPlusHotstarMultiplex மூவி! லேடி சூப்பர்ஸ்டார் நயன்தாராவின் சுட்டெரிக்கும் நெற்றிக்கண்! #Netrikann #ComingSoon. (Here is an exciting announcement! Our next #DisneyPlusHotstarMultiplex Movie coming soon! Lady Superstar Nayantara's burning forehead! #Netrikann #ComingSoon.)”


Netrikann is directed by Milind Rau and produced by Vignesh Shivan under his banner Rowdy Pictures. The movie is co-produced by Kross Pictures.

It is said that Netrikann is a remake of the Korean film Blind. However, there’s no official announcement about it. A Hindi remake of Blind is also on the cards. Sonam Kapoor will be seen playing the lead role in it.

Last year, a teaser of Netrikann was released, and it was simply amazing. Nayanthara’s performance was one of the highlights of the teaser.

Talking about other projects of Nayanthara, the actress will be seen in Annaatthe and Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kaadhal. Annaatthe stars Rajinikanth in the lead role, and Kaathu Vaakula Rendu Kaadhal also stars Vijay Sethupathi, and Samantha Akkineni.

There have been reports of Nayanthara being roped in for Netflix’s Baahubali: Before the Beginning, and Shah Rukh Khan’s next with filmmaker Atlee. However, there’s no official announcement about both the projects.

Author Chetan Bhagat says the obsession with fame is harming Bollywood actors' mental health

Highlights:

  • Bhagat says some stars can’t enjoy meals if not photographed.
  • Author calls Bollywood a “drug house of fame.”
  • He left movies to focus on writing and moved to Dubai.
  • Sees industry as insecure, with friendships mostly transactional.
  • Believes creating stories gives him more satisfaction than films.

Chetan Bhagat says fame in Bollywood can take a serious toll on mental health. The bestselling author, whose novels like 3 Idiots and Kai Po Che! became major films, explained that many actors and directors struggle when their work doesn’t succeed. “There are actors who, when going to a restaurant, if they aren’t recognised, don’t enjoy the meal. They wonder, ‘No one came to click photos?’ Can you imagine what a sick life that is?” he said.

Bhagat added that the pressure of attention and constant public scrutiny can worsen insecurity. He recalled seeing stars fade over time, their mental health affected by the highs and lows of fame.
