Prime Video announces premiere date for Chiranjeevi-Ram Charan-starrer Acharya

Fronted by father-son duo Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan, Telugu action-drama Acharya (2022) is slated to have its digital premiere on Amazon Prime Video on May 20, the streamer announced on Friday.  

Directed by Koratala Siva, Acharya also stars Pooja Hegde, Sonu Sood, and Jisshu Sengupta in prominent roles.


The film, which opened theatrically last month, will stream on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories.

The movie is produced by Ram Charan and Niranjan Reddy.

Acharya revolves around a middle-aged Naxalite-turned-social reformer, who launches a fight against the Endowments Department over the misappropriation of temple funds and donations.    The film features Ram Charan as the protector of the sacred land of Dharmasthali, which serves as a link between the holy land and a divine river.

Released amidst high expectations, Acharya has turned out to be a disaster at the box office. Made on a lavish budget, the theatrical run of the film has almost come to an end in the second week of its release itself.

The film has been panned by critics and audiences alike for poor script and unimaginative direction. It is financed by Konidela Production Company and Matinee Entertainment.

Ranbir's 'Ramayana' will go global using AI, says producer Namit Malhotra

Producer Namit Malhotra is betting big on Ramayana, not just as a film for Indian audiences, but as a story that can speak to viewers across the world. At the WAVES Summit in Mumbai, Malhotra shared how the upcoming mythological drama, directed by Nitesh Tiwari and starring Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi, is being developed with a global ambition, bringing together high-end tech with cultural roots.

He explained that the team isn’t just dubbing the film into other languages. Instead, they’re using real-time AI to match lip movements to multiple languages, so when audiences watch it in English, Spanish, or Japanese, it looks like the actors are actually speaking those tongues. The idea is to avoid the usual detachment of subtitles or awkward dubbing, and instead make the film feel native to each region.

Instagram blocks profiles of Fawad Khan, Atif Aslam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan in India amid rising tensions

The Instagram profiles of Pakistani celebrities like Fawad Khan, Atif Aslam, and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan are no longer accessible in India. This development comes just weeks before Fawad’s planned Bollywood return with Abir Gulaal and follows a series of social media restrictions tied to the worsening India–Pakistan relationship.

When Indian fans try to view the artists' Instagram pages, they’re met with a message: "Account not available in India. This is because we complied with a legal request to restrict this content." No official clarification has come from either the Indian government or Meta, but the timing is significant. The move comes days after a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam region killed 26 people, most of them tourists. It was one of the deadliest attacks since the 2008 Mumbai carnage.
