Why Every Movie is Now Choosing Forest Background?
Earlier, big movies were known for foreign locations and lavish sets.
But now, star heroes are shifting toward forest-based settings.
Forest Backdrop – The New Success Formula
Recent Pan-India blockbusters like:
- Pushpa
- Kantara
- RRR
all heavily used forest sequences, which played a crucial role in their success.
Audiences, bored with regular commercial action scenes, are enjoying these raw, rooted, forest-themed films.
Upcoming Movies with Major Forest Action
Many top upcoming films also include heavy forest action:
- Mahesh Babu – Rajamouli’s “Varanasi”
- NTR – Prashanth Neel project
- Naga Chaitanya – Vrishakarma
- Sai Dharam Tej – Sambaraala Etigattu
Akhanda 2 Thandavam – Postpone Impact and New Challenges
The highly anticipated sequel Akhanda 2: Thandavam, starring Nandamuri Balakrishna, was supposed to release on December 5 but faced unexpected delays.
New Release Date: December 12
After two days of suspense, the movie was postponed to December 12.
Effect on Other Films
The postponement affected several smaller releases:
- Mowgli shifted by a day
- Saik and Siddharth–Isha films postponed to new dates
This allows Akhanda 2 to release with very little competition on December 12.
Pan-India Concerns
While Balayya has no issues regionally, the Pan-India release may face challenges.
Recently, Bollywood movie Durandhar became a super hit and is dominating North India.
This raises doubts whether Akhanda 2 can secure enough theatres in the North.
Overseas Troubles Too
- Overseas theatres were booked from December 5.
- When the movie didn’t arrive, theatres replaced it with other films.
- Now, with limited time before December 12, the question is:
Can the makers secure enough theatres again?
This has turned into a million-dollar question.
Is There a New Director Competing With Sandeep Reddy Vanga?
Sandeep Reddy Vanga created a new wave in Indian cinema with:
- Arjun Reddy
- Animal
and is currently working with Prabhas on Spirit.
But now, industry circles say a new director is giving strong competition to Sandeep’s intense, rustic filmmaking style.
Who Is That Director?
The recently released Bollywood blockbuster Durandhar is shaking the box office.
Directed by Aditya, known earlier for Uri, the movie showcases:
- Wild storytelling
- Raw action
- High emotional intensity
This has sparked discussions that Aditya might be emerging as a strong competitor to Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s style.
Many are saying Sandeep must be extra alert while shaping Spirit.
Deepika Padukone Sparks Fresh Controversy Again

Why South Fans Are Upset?
Deepika recently:
- Rejected Spirit with Prabhas
