Pradeep Ranganathan\'s latest film, Dude, has achieved a remarkable feat by joining the 100 Cr grossers club in just 6 days, according to Mythri Movie Makers, the production house behind the film. While box office websites like Track Tollywood estimate the film\'s gross collection to be around 85 Cr, the difference in numbers is not uncommon. Nevertheless, Dude is performing exceptionally well at the box office, solidifying Pradeep Ranganathan\'s stardom.\r\nDude is a jackpot film for Mythri Movie Makers, as it was made on a reasonable budget and has already recovered its costs through non-theatrical rights. The film\'s theatrical collections are adding to its profitability, making it one of the most successful ventures for the production house. Directed by debutant Keerthiswaran, Dude stars Pradeep Ranganathan and Mamitha Baiju in lead roles, along with Neha Shetty, Sarathkumar, Rohini, Hridhu Haroon, and Satya in key roles. The film\'s music is composed by Sai Abhyankkar.\r\nDude marks Pradeep Ranganathan\'s third consecutive Rs. 100 crore grosser, following Love Today and Dragon. This achievement is a testament to his growing popularity and stardom in Kollywood. With its impressive box office performance, Dude is proving to be a major success for both Pradeep Ranganathan and Mythri Movie Makers.\r\nThe film\'s success can be attributed to its engaging storyline, strong performances, and well-received music. As Dude continues to draw crowds, it is likely to remain a profitable venture for Mythri Movie Makers, cementing its position as one of the most successful films of the year.\r\n<div></div>

\r\nIs Miss India 1994 rigged in favour of Aishwarya?. Sushmita Sen did entire nation proud by becoming Miss Universe in 1994. It is known that during the same year Aishwarya Rai became Miss World.\r\nNow, popular ad filmmaer Prahlad Kakkar shared startling revelation. He said&nbsp; &ldquo;One day, halfway through the competition, Sushmita was weeping copiously in one corner of the changing room. I walked up to her. Even though I was supposed to be from a rival camp, I walked up to her and asked her. She said, &lsquo;No, it&rsquo;s all fixed. It&rsquo;s all rigged. We don&rsquo;t know what we are doing here.&rsquo; When I asked her, she explained how Aishwarya was a bigger model and she would be named the winner.&rdquo;\r\nReflecting on the competition&rsquo;s final moments, he said, &ldquo;It was a tough competition. Both of them were stunning. But Aishwarya fell. Finally, there was a question-and-answer round, which was an extra round because they couldn&rsquo;t make up their minds. Sushmita&rsquo;s answer was far more confident and composed than Aishwarya&rsquo;s, and she won the last round. It was touch and go. But that was like, what an era it was.&rdquo;\r\nHe added&nbsp; &ldquo;Sushmita got disenchanted with the industry and started becoming difficult to actually get hold of, access. So she put layers in front of her, too. I don&rsquo;t think she trusted them. To some extent, she was westernised. Additionally, she harboured a mistrust of the industry, as she believed it was all exploitative. At the end of it, if you&rsquo;re a single woman and you&rsquo;re good-looking and your life is on the line because your career is your life, then you can be taken advantage of.\"\r\n

\r\nJanhvi shares her thoughts on surgery. Janhvi Kapoor is giving sleepless nights to movie lovers with her redhot looks on and off the screen. She recently entertained with her films Param Sundari and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari.\r\nShe is now romancing Ram Charan in Peddi and also in talks for Allu Arjun\'s next with Atlee. Now speaking to scribes, Janhvi said \"I was one of the young girls who was very impressionable with the onset of social media and seeing everyone being judged to look a certain way. I don&rsquo;t want to perpetuate to young girls this idea of perfection. I\'m a big believer in &lsquo;you do you,&rsquo; do whatever makes you happy. I would be very happy to be a completely open book about things.\"\r\nShe added &ldquo;I think I have been very intelligent, conservative, and proper about what I have done. Of course, I had the guidance of my mom, and I\'d like to share that. Also, as a cautionary tale, because if a young girl sees a video like this and decides mujhe bhi ye buffalo-plasty karna hai and something goes wrong, that would be the worst thing ever. I think transparency is important.\"\r\n
