"They Don't Hold a Grudge" - On Refusing Roles from Salman, Akshay, and Ranbir

In a candid conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Kangana Ranaut addressed her past interactions with prominent Bollywood actors, shedding light on her reasons for rejecting roles in their films.

Despite her outspoken nature and public comments, Kangana maintains that these actors harbor no resentment toward her. She cited examples like Salman Khan offering her roles in "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" and "Sultan," which she declined due to dissatisfaction with the offered roles.

She recalled Salman's reaction, "He said, 'Ab isse zyada kya role chahiye. Heroines ka aesa hi role hota hai (What better role do you want. Heroines get such roles).'" Similarly, Ranbir Kapoor approached her personally, requesting her participation in "Sanju," which she also turned down.

Kangana's rejection of Akshay Kumar's offers in films like "Singh Is Bliing" led to a humorous exchange. Akshay expressed suspicion, "Tu na mere saath hi kaam nahi karna chahti hai. Tereko na mujhse koi problem hai (You don't want to work only with me. You have a problem with me)." Kangana assured him, "Sir, sach mein mujhe koi problem nahi hai (Sir, I genuinely don't have a problem)."

Kangana attributes her open communication and refusal to compromise on her artistic integrity as the reason for these actors' understanding and lack of animosity. "People are very kind to me that way. Because I think somewhere they recognise that, 'Kangana isn't speaking for her little gain'," she shared.

She went on to highlight Salman's kindness, stating, "Salman is so kind he keeps talking to me." This underscores the amicable nature of their relationship despite the past disagreements.

This revelation adds a new dimension to Kangana's public persona, highlighting her commitment to her principles and artistic choices. It also sheds light on the intricacies of the Bollywood industry, where professional differences do not always translate into personal animosity.

Vijay Sethupathi\'s \"Release\" Sequel: A Potential Trilogy with High Stakes\r\nVijay Sethupathi\'s \"Release\" Part 1, despite not achieving blockbuster box office success in Telugu, garnered critical acclaim and a super hit status in Tamil, setting the stage for a highly anticipated sequel.\r\nThe film, which introduced actor Suri in a serious light, is being helmed by director Vetrimaran, known for his meticulous approach. While the first part was released by Geetha Arts in Telugu, they are also on board for the sequel. However, the shoot has been surprisingly extensive, prompting speculation about the film\'s scope.\r\nSources suggest that Vetrimaran is aiming for a trilogy, with the second part expected to be followed by a third installment. The sheer length of the shoot - already exceeding 4 hours and 30 minutes with 30% remaining - is indicative of an ambitious project.\r\nVijay Sethupathi\'s recent success with \"Maharaja\" has further amplified the buzz surrounding \"Release 2,\" with international audiences expressing interest after its Netflix debut. This demand, combined with the film\'s complex, Naxalite-themed narrative, has fueled speculation about a potential third part.\r\nThe story, which explores the harsh realities of police brutality and the Naxalite movement, echoes themes explored in Krishnavamsi\'s film, albeit with a contemporary lens. While Krishnavamsi\'s film faced criticism upon release, it has gained cult status over time, indicating a shift in audience perception.\r\nThe sequel, however, is expected to lean heavily on Vijay Sethupathi\'s captivating performance. It is rumored that certain scenes from the first part were reshot, hinting at a significant evolution in the narrative.\r\nThis ambitious project, fueled by critical acclaim and audience anticipation, promises to be a captivating cinematic experience. The trilogy format, with its potential for deeper exploration of the story\'s themes, adds another layer of intrigue. While the release of the third part remains unconfirmed, the anticipation surrounding this unique project is undeniable.\r\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"></div>

Versatile actor Vijay Sethupathi has reportedly declined an offer to play a fatherly role in Ram Charan's upcoming film with director Buchi Babu, citing concerns about typecasting. Despite being offered a significant amount of money, Sethupathi opted out of the project, seeking to explore different roles in Telugu cinema.
According to sources, Sethupathi had already played fatherly roles in "Maharaja" and "Uppena", and was eager to take on new challenges. The makers subsequently approached Kannada superstar Shivraj Kumar, who agreed to play the pivotal role alongside Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor.
Sethupathi's decision comes on the heels of his massive success with "Maharaja", which has become the biggest hit of his career, grossing over Rs 10 crores in Telugu-speaking regions. The film's success has also led to a growing fan base for Sethupathi among Telugu audiences.
Sethupathi made his Telugu debut with "Uppena", showcasing his acting prowess as a ruthless feudal lord. With his recent success and growing popularity, he is expected to take on more protagonist roles in the future, further solidifying his position in Telugu cinema.
