A Cinematic Masterpiece That Stands the Test of Time
Released in 1987, Nayakan is a cinematic marvel directed by Mani Ratnam and headlined by Kamal Haasan. It’s not just another gangster flick—it’s a layered exploration of humanity, family, and survival set against the gritty backdrop of Mumbai‘s underworld. The film draws inspiration from the real-life story of Varadarajan Mudaliar, a Tamil don who ruled Mumbai, and seamlessly blends it with the grandeur of Hollywood classics like The Godfather and Once Upon a Time in America. But make no mistake—Nayakan has a uniquely Indian soul that resonates even today.
The Story That Hooks You
At its core, Nayakan is the journey of Sakthivel Naicker (played by Kamal Haasan), a man forced into the underworld by circumstances, only to become a savior-like figure to the oppressed Tamil community in Mumbai. The movie paints Velu Naicker as a man...

In June 2023, Aanand L. Rai and Dhanush announced their third collaboration, Tere Ishk Mein, following the success of Raanjhanaa and Atrangi Re. However, nearly a year has passed since the announcement with little to no development on the project, sparking numerous rumors about its status. According to Peepingmoon, the film is still on but has faced production delays.
Sources indicate that Dhanush’s commitments to his Tamil films have caused the postponement of Tere Ishk Mein. “Dhanush has several prior commitments down south that he wants to complete before dedicating two months to Aanand L. Rai’s film. The director acknowledged his concern and has agreed to wait for him. They’re now aiming to start the film around October–November 2024,” a source revealed. The film will be shot in a two-month, continuous schedule in Varanasi and other locations in Uttar Pradesh, with a theatrical release targeted for mid-2025.

Ilayaraja has taken swift legal action against the producers of ‘Coolie’ for the unauthorized use of his music in the teaser.

‘Music School’ is a slice of life drama revolving around a theatre teacher and music teacher, trying to put together a stage musical based on ‘The Sound of Music’, helmed by former Ias officer and National Award-winning filmmaker Papa Rao Biyyala, marking his full-length feature directorial debut.
The movie opens with a theatre teacher struggling to make his presence count, while other streams take up all the space, students and credit.
Painting, music, theatre, poetry, and such soulful and nourishing creative streams are often sidelined as there is unprecedented academic pressure on students to score good grades, and find a place in reputed professional colleges. But nourishment of the soul is most important; there is nothing worse than the broken spirit of a child.
Shriya Saran (Maria), a music teacher from Goa, joins the school, only to face the same disdain and struggle that Sharman Joshi’s character (drama teacher Manoj) has to contend with.
