Only after that do I agree to hear the story.&rdquo;\r\nShe shared &ldquo;I am clearing dues from films made five years ago even now. That is why I have decided not to produce films anymore and to remain only an actress,&rdquo;\r\nAbout her upcoming film Bookie, she said &ldquo;The film was released in Tamil last Friday and has received an excellent response. It is a universal film that connects with everyone. This movie was made with a wonderful team and talented artists like Ajay and Dhanush.

I have played a very interesting character in this film, and the expressions in my role are quite intriguing.&rdquo;

She announced that she will be turning producer and launched her own production house.\r\nSharing the details, Nithya Menen revealed the name of her production house as Keyuri.

A place deeper than intellect. A place above thought. Above reason. To stir a transformation - both within me, when I am absorbed in the creative process, and within the other who watches. To create shifts that ripple quietly. Changed in ways we cannot fully name. Imperceptibly at first, but irreversibly.\"\r\nShe continued Creating through films, to me, is the miracle of touching what is human and unguarded. While that has been my process and intention since the first day I began acting , it will continue to remain the intention while I now produce films.

\r\nGopi Mohan on Changing Film Titles. Of late Tollywood is facing the heat from the Censor Board and this forced the makers of the upcoming films to changes the titles.\r\n&nbsp;\r\nSantosh Sobhan\'s Couple Friendly faced Censor Heat and was asked to change the title to Friendly Couple but when they refused, they were given A certificate. Earlier Vaanara was changed to Vana Veera which also faced similar problems. Suhas\' upcoming film Hey Bhagawan was changed to Hey Balwanth. Earlier Varun Tej\'s Valmiki was changed to Gaddalakonda Ganesh.\r\nChaiwala was changed to Nawab Cafe. Star writer Gopi Mohan said &ldquo;A director finalises a title after evaluating hundreds of options and registers it for the film. A title carries the soul, essence, and core idea of a movie. Some titles have energy of their own&mdash;it&rsquo;s a necessity, not a choice.&rdquo;\r\nHe continued &ldquo;Filmmakers are responsible toward society and are careful while fixing titles. Forcing a title change affects creative freedom and puts makers in an awkward situation. A film is promoted across various platforms with a chosen title, and asking for a change at the censor stage is unfortunate. It also impacts collections, as introducing a new title at the last moment is risky.&rdquo;\r\nHe pointed out &ldquo;Out of nearly 200 titles, perhaps only three or four may be objectionable. Decades ago, the film Bhagwan, starring Krishnam Raju, cleared the censors. But today, Hey Bhagawan! had to be changed to Hey Balwanth. We don&rsquo;t know what rules have changed in between.&rdquo;\r\nHe speculated &ldquo;Maybe now there is an attempt to protect Hindu gods or names associated with them, as even Sri Chidambaram was changed to Sri Chidambaram Garu. But I&rsquo;m not entirely sure.&rdquo;\r\nShiva Kandukuri, shared &ldquo;It is true that censor officials raised objections to our film&rsquo;s title. We changed it from Chai Wala to Nawab Caf&eacute; and are now trying to reach out to the audience.&rdquo;\r\n
