It's been quite a week down South. With movie release announcements, first tracks, and Arjun Reddy under the scanner again, here's what made news this week:

Vijay Deverakonda on his Bollywood debut

 

Vijay Deverakonda was one of the prime guests at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), held in Goa. Much has already been speculated about the actor's Bollywood debut and while interacting with the attendees there, Vijay, finally, gave us a hint of his Bollywood debut. "You will get love with drama and action. No thriller as it will become a khichdi. I'll make it soon."

Valimai release date

Recently, the release date of Thala Ajith's Valimai was announced a couple of days ago by Trade Analyst Ramesh Bala. It will be a Diwali 2020 release and will clash with Akshay Kumar's Prithviraj. Valimai is touted to be a stylish action-thriller that will be shot in Budapest and UAE. It marks the second collaboration between Ajith, H. Vinoth and Boney Kapoor.

After 2015, it is going to be #ThalaDiwali again in 2020 in TN..#Valimai - A #Diwali2020 Release..

Parvathy criticises Vijay's Arjun Reddy

A roundtable conference was held by an entertainment portal that was attended by Vijay Deverakonda, Parvathy Thirovothu, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Manoj Bajpayee and Vijay Sethupathi. When a discussion of dark-themed films popped up, the topic of Vijay's Arjun Reddy and Shahid Kapoor's Kabir Singh arose. Parvathy went on to critise Arjun Reddy, saying, "We can watch a tragedy and leave it there without being inspired to follow it. If you say that there is no passion in a relationship without slapping each other, and I see comments on YouTube where people are resonating and engaging with a wrong thing in a massive mob-like manner, you are inciting violence." Well, it has been quite a long time since the movie released, but with its remake, Kabir Singh, making waves, the hype increased tenfold and poor Deverakonda is still reeling with its effects.

Athade Srimannarayana trailer

Rakshit Shetty action-comedy, Athade Srimannarayana's trailer, dropped on Thursday. It's an unusual trailer that is likely to intrigue the audience and make them visit the theatres to watch the film. In case you missed it, here's the trailer:

Napde Killi is a Hindi version of Chumma Kizhi. The song is composed by Kolaveri Di fame Anirudh Ravichander who has also provided the vocals alongside S. P. Balasubrahmanyam. Here's the song if you missed out:
