Vijay Deverakonda shares his working experience with Samantha in ‘Kushi’

Actor Vijay Deverakonda is presently busy promoting his upcoming Telugu film Kushi, which is written and directed by Shiva Nirvana, and also stars Samantha Ruth Prabhu opposite him.

Deverakonda shared his experience of working with co-star Samantha and the director, Shiva. Vijay told ANI, "The entire process of shooting it will be one of my favourite memories forever. The two persons I spent the most time with, shared the most memories and highs and lows with, and developed the closest connections with were Shiva and Samantha. I'll always find it fun to reflect on how this movie was made."


The movie's trailer shows Aaradhya and Viplav, who take us on their romantic journey and build a relatable but lovely world of romance, at the centre of the narrative. The path has its ups and downs, challenges, as well as its bittersweet moments.

The video begins with Vijay and Samantha discovering love in Kashmir's rugged mountains. But their love tale quickly turns as their families get involved to make them apart. But to prove their families wrong, Samantha and Vijay’s characters unite, marry, and embark on a journey.

Written and directed by Shiva Nirvana and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, Kushi is set to hit the theatres on September 1 in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.

After Mahanati, it will be Samantha and Vijay's second project together and it is Samantha's second collaboration with filmmaker Shiva Nirvana, who previously collaborated with her on Majili.

Jayaram, Sachin Khedakar, Murali Sharma, Lakshmi, Ali, Rohini, Vennela Kishore, Rahul Ramakrishna, Srikanth Iyengar, and Saranya are among the cast members of the film.

Oscar-winner Jamie Lee Curtis has launched a sharp critique of the beauty industry, warning that cosmetic surgery and AI beauty filters have “wiped out” natural human appearance for entire generations of women. In a candid interview with The Guardian, the 66-year-old actress likened the cosmetic procedure boom to a form of “genocide”, a controversial term she insists is deliberate, given the scale and cultural impact of what she sees as industry-driven body modification.

Mental illness lies at heart of Reeta Chakrabarti's debut novel

REETA CHAKRABARTI is wonderfully eloquent when talking to Eastern Eye about her debut novel, Finding Belle, which she says has been “inspired” by Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre “rather than a retelling of the classic published in 1847”.

Indeed, in March this year she was named “Best Presenter” in Eastern Eye’s Arts, Culture & Theatre Awards (ACTA). After speaking to Eastern Eye last Tuesday (15), she headed back to Broadcasting House to front the BBC’s flagship News at Ten as chief presenter.
