Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has completed the script for his adaptation of Karna, with AR Rahman composing five or six songs for the film. The project, which has been in the works for six years, is currently on pause, but Rakeysh is optimistic about its future. Initially Suriya was supposed to play the role but due to delay he dropped the project.\r\nHe described Vyasa\'s Mahabharat as \"dramatic\" and praised the original version as a \"beautiful story\" full of \"grey matter\".&nbsp; Rakeysh interprets Karna as a character empowered by solar power, rather than just the biological son of the sun. He sees Karna as a tragic figure, neglected and abandoned throughout his life, and plans to portray this in the film.&nbsp;\r\nKarna will be released in two parts, similar to Nitesh Tiwari\'s Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash. Rakeysh has been working on the project for six years, taking time to understand Vyasa\'s Mahabharat.&nbsp;\r\nHe drew parallels between Karna\'s struggle against caste discrimination and historical issues like social exclusion in cricket. The film promises to be an epic adaptation of the classic tale, with stunning visuals and music. We have to see who will take up the iconic character.

Mahesh Babu\'s AMB Cinemas Kapali, launched in Bengaluru\'s Majestic area, is facing challenges in attracting audiences, with some attributing it to the location. The multiplex, opened on January 16, boasts nine screens, including South India\'s first Dolby Cinema screen, and offers state-of-the-art facilities.\r\nIndustry observers agree that Majestic, a crowded commercial area with heavy traffic, isn\'t ideal for a premium multiplex. In contrast, areas like Malleshwaram, Rajajinagar, and Sadashivanagar have better catchment areas. The location has led to lower occupancies, prompting the multiplex to offer free refreshments to attract viewers.\r\nThe iconic Kapali theatre, which stood on the site for 49 years, was razed in 2017 and has been reborn as AMB Cinemas Kapali. Mahesh Babu\'s venture aims to replicate the success of AMB Hyderabad, but the Bengaluru location poses significant challenges.&nbsp;\r\nWith premium multiplexes thriving in IT areas, AMB Kapali\'s future hinges on its ability to adapt to the local market. Unlike AMB Cinemas Hyderabad which is top go-to destination for movie lovers for its cutting edge technology, B Bengaluru struggles mainly due to its location.\r\n<div></div>
