Ek puppy ke rone ki awaaz se itna bawaal mach gaya hai and someone has issued a fake clarification also on my behalf. (People have crossed their limits. They created a fuss over the sound of a puppy crying).”She added, “So here's the reality ...I was watching the match at my friends house and their young puppy was making these crying 'Sounds'. This is the video made by my friend at the same time with the same sounds from another angle. (contd .. )” In another post, she wrote, “This is the house where I was watching the match. This is the puppy. This is a video from that very night a while later.”Nushrratt also stated that she predicted this would happen, writing, “Fearing exactly what has happened, I was advised to delete that video and I did. People, calm your wild thoughts down! Owning a mobile phone doesn't empower harrassment. Do not misinterpret or follow blindly. Think and act responsibly!”She also flagged the false statement attributed to her. : “Guys, calm down. That voice is NOT mine.” Another portion of the fake statement read: “The way some people are spreading random stories and theories on social media is honestly unbelievable. One accidental post and suddenly everyone becomes a detective. Please stop believing every rumor you see online. Not everything needs a conspiracy theory attached to it.”

Jab aapki haisiyat badhti hai toh aapke dushman bhi badhte hain. Toh aisa toh nahi ho sakta ki aapki haisiyat badhe aur aapke dushman na badhe. Toh unko yeh sochna chahiye ki unki kya haisiyat hai,""When you move forward in life, there are many obstacles. You can't have a smooth walk all the time. It doesn't matter. It's okay. Everything is going to be fine eventually."However, Ashoke Pandit said, “A lot of people in the industry have started abusing us. Yesterday, Kangana also said something. We are not understanding the whole issue, and people are just commenting. Kangana also said that even I have been banned by the industry.

&nbsp;&nbsp;Today, Prashanth Neel, the pathbreaking director who redefined Indian action films, is celebrating his birthday. From a quiet debut to becoming the most explosive name in commercial cinema, his rise is built on vision, grit, and unmatched storytelling. Fans, stars, and the industry join together to wish him a grand year ahead.Early Days And Career RisePrashanth Neel started his journey with Ugramm in 2014. The film starred his brother-in-law, Sri Murali, and became a sleeper hit in Kannada cinema. It showed his command over raw emotion and stylized action right from the first frame. Ugramm gave him recognition, but he stayed patient. He waited four years to mount his next film, choosing scale over speed. That choice changed everything.With KGF: Chapter 1 in 2018, he introduced Rocky Bhai and turned a regional story into a national event. The sequel KGF: Chapter 2 broke every barrier in 2022 and collected over Rs 1300 crore worldwide. He followed it with Salaar starring Prabhas, delivering another massive blockbuster. In just three films, he went from newcomer to pan-India brand. His rise proves that clear vision and patience create legends.Unique Style Of Engaging NarrationPrashanth Neel’s films carry a signature stamp. He builds dark, dense worlds with grey characters who command loyalty. His narrative is non-linear and layered, yet easy to follow because the emotion is simple. He uses slow motion, silhouettes, and sharp cuts to turn action into poetry. The elevation scenes are designed for theatre eruptions. Dialogues are minimal but impactful.He mixes mass moments with strong drama, so the story never loses soul. Background score and sound design work like characters in his films. He respects the audience and trusts them to join the dots. That faith created a new language for action cinema in India. Directors now study his template, and fans wait for his next world.Dragon And The Road AheadThe next chapter is Dragon with NTR. The first glimpse received a thundering response and set high expectations. The film promises to push boundaries again with scale, emotion, and action. Prashanth Neel continues to choose stories that demand the big screen. His passion for cinema and ability to connect with every region make him a true pan-India force.NTR wished him on X, "Happy birthday, Director avare… May this year for you be as grand as the stories you tell… Can’t wait to see what lies ahead for us Prashanth.". Team Dragon also dropped a special birthday poster with the message, "Wishing the Most Terrifyingly explosive firecracker of Indian cinema #PrashanthNeel a very Happy Birthday. He’s all set to blaze every gun and go beyond limits to deliver a CELEBRATION OF CINEMA. Team #DRAGON".CineJosh wishes Prashanth Neel a fantastic birthday and many more blockbusters. May he keep raising the bar and giving audiences the theatre moments they crave. &nbsp;
