SS Rajamouli reveals if he has been approached by Kevin Feige to direct a Marvel film

It has been more than half a year since its release, but filmmaker SS Rajamouli’s RRR (2022) still continues to dominate headlines. In addition to doing terrific business on home turf, the film has done exceedingly well overseas. Over the past few months, a number of artists from Hollywood have heaped praises on the film.

Reports were doing the rounds lately that RRR impressed Marvel Studios’ head Kevin Feige so much that he approached Rajamouli to helm an MCU film for them. When the visionary filmmaker was recently asked if he was being approached by Feige for a Marvel film, he told a publication, “There are a lot of enquiries from Hollywood, but at present, I am committed to doing a movie with Mahesh Babu. He is a big Telugu star. I am committed to doing a film with him.”


He further said, "But I would definitely like to learn so much from Hollywood, their style of working, their methodology. I am seeing how we can collaborate and make it a richer experience.”

For the unversed, Rajamouli has earlier expressed his love for Hollywood biggies such as Braveheart and Ben-Hur and that someday he would try his hand at the adaptation of Prince of Persia.

Talking about Rajamouli’s next ambitious project, it stars Tollywood superstar Mahesh Babu in the lead role. His father KV Vijayendra Prasad is presently busy scripting the film. In a media interaction at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival, the filmmaker briefly discussed his upcoming project. Rajamouli called his film "a globetrotting action-adventure," which will see Mahesh Babu in a "one-of-its-kind role."

Mahesh Babu was last seen in Sarkaru Vaari Paata (2022) and is currently working on his 28th film with filmmaker Trivikram. The upcoming film also stars Pooja Hegde in the lead role.

Why is Gen-Z laughing at ‘Little Britain’? A closer look at the show’s most offensive jokes

More than two decades after Little Britain first aired, a new audience is discovering the controversial sketch show but not on BBC or Netflix. Instead, Gen-Z has resurrected it on TikTok, where short clips featuring outrageous characters and catchphrases have racked up millions of views. The twist? Many of these viral clips are the very ones that got the show pulled from streaming platforms in 2020.

Created by Matt Lucas and David Walliams, Little Britain was a defining comedy of the 2000s. It won awards, ran across multiple seasons, and even spawned a spin-off, Come Fly With Me. But as societal standards around race, sexuality, and disability evolved, the show came under fire for jokes that many now see as not just outdated but outright offensive.

Hayden Christensen confirms return as Anakin Skywalker in 'Ahsoka' season 2

After much speculation, Hayden Christensen has confirmed he’s returning as Anakin Skywalker in the second season of Ahsoka. The actor made the announcement during the Star Wars Celebration event in Tokyo, sharing his enthusiasm about revisiting a version of Anakin that fans haven’t fully explored in live-action, the Clone Wars-era Jedi, before his fall to the dark side.

Christensen said that bringing this version of Anakin to life has long been something he and Star Wars creator George Lucas had hoped to explore on screen. The new season, which starts filming next week, will give fans a deeper look at that chapter of the character's life, though details about his exact role remain under wraps.

'Kesari Chapter 2' opens to mixed reviews as Akshay Kumar takes on colonial injustice in court

Released on April 18, Kesari Chapter 2 steps into theatres with a heavy subject on its shoulders: the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and the courtroom fight that followed. Headlined by Akshay Kumar, alongside R. Madhavan and Ananya Panday, the film has drawn mixed reactions from viewers, with some calling it powerful and others labelling it sluggish.

Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and backed by Dharma Productions, the film moves away from the battlefield narrative of its 2019 predecessor. Instead, it follows the legal efforts of C. Sankaran Nair, played by Akshay Kumar, who challenged the British Empire after the 1919 tragedy. R. Madhavan plays opposing counsel Neville McKinley, while Ananya Panday surprises many with a restrained, serious performance as Dilreet Gill.
