&nbsp;&nbsp;Madhavan on doing biopics and his project with GD.Naidu. Star actor &nbsp;Madhavan who is known for his impactful performances, is starring in GDN. &nbsp;GDN is a biopic on GD Naidu, and it is written and directed by Krishnakumar Ramkumar of Oho Enthan Baby fame.Madhavan shared his thoughts on biopics and GD. Naidu biopic . He said, "How do we not know about a man like this?" I asked myself in anguish when I did Nambi Narayanan Sir's film. I avoided other biopics, fearing that I would get consumed by that fierce obsession again. Then I got the Ajit Doval-inspired role in Dhurandhar. Just when I decided to stop, this came along. I wanted to say No, but the moment I heard director Krishna's script, that same fierce obsession hit me again."He continued "It is necessary to know about GD Naidu because he was incredibly advanced even back then. He asked: "Why are you studying engineering for four years? The practical knowledge you gain in a polytechnic can be learned in just two years." Today, because of AI, we realise we don't need to learn everything, just what is practically necessary. He did many visionary things. Forget about the awards and the Ratnas. People should at least know about him."He added "The younger generation is very smart. You don't need to spoon-feed them; just ignite a spark, and they will do the research themselves. He deserves recognition. It has already begun. Recently, a flyover was named after him in Kovai. When all of India knows about him and his story is included in the educational syllabus, that will be this film's success."About GD.Naidu, he said "He was not a rebel without a cause. When he wanted to change a system and faced opposition, he fought fiercely. On women's education, for example, he stood with Periyar and was one of the pioneers. I can relate to that a lot."The film stars Jayaram, Sathyaraj, Priyamani, Yogi Babu and Dushara Vijayan in important roles. GD.Naidu is hailed as the Edison of India and &nbsp;was a self-taught engineer and entrepreneur from Coimbatore who revolutionized Indian industry by adapting imported technologies into affordable, practical innovations. He developed India’s first indigenous electric motor and created a range of products, from fans and razors to petrol engines and ticket machines, that transformed local manufacturing.- Pramod Nandivada

Diljit Dosanjh's Sutlej directed by Honey Trehan which went for a direct streaming on Zee 5 platform was removed from it without any notice shocking the makers.The film is based on the life of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra. What surprised all is the film got streaming on Zee 5 without any censor. In the midst of all this, Ram Gopal Varma who is known for his free and frank talk came up with the following post.Just saw SATLUJ and it is not a film , but a deep wound that will never heal. It stirs up the sludge in one of the darkest chapters of our history This is cinema used as confrontation , where @diljitdosanjh acts with a quiet fury with no chest thumping heroism.. His only weapons are a ledger and a conscience. @rampalarjun adds layers of moral rot in the institutional complicity that feels chillingly realistic Director @honeytrehan instead of sensationalising the horror unfolds the film like a slow burn investigative thriller through bureaucratic files, cremation records, and hushed conversations This restraint makes the brutality of the subject matter hit that much harder because it explodes &nbsp;with the force of truth and not exploitation.The philosophical core of the film about how a democracy devours its own citizens and then tries to erase the evidence is explored without any preachiness and that’s no normal achievement .The various issues surrounding its exhibition and publication prove that any art which makes the powerful uncomfortable has done its job, and that is the true purpose of true art , which SATLUJ &nbsp;is .It is highly courageous essential filmmaking because it unsettles, educates, and lingers . In the times where main stream chases spectacle and popcorn cinema , SUTLEJ shoots out a hard reminder of what cinematic medium can truly achieve when it takes on truth and honestySATLUJ &nbsp;is a film that has to be seen , shown, discussed, debated and not ENCOUNTERED like the victims in the film My appeal to all the powers is , please don’t do to SATLUJ what has been done to JASWANT SINGH KALRATRUTH HITS HARDER when one tries to HIDE IT . &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;— AYN RAND---- Pramod Nandivada
