Govt Blocks 18 OTT Platforms for Obscene Content, Minister Reveals in Lok Sabha

The Indian government has recently blocked 18 OTT platforms for promoting obscene and vulgar content. This action was taken under the Information Technology (IT) Rules of 2021, which aim to regulate online content. Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting, L. Murugan, shared this information during a session in the Lok Sabha on December 18, 2024.

Details of the Blocked Platforms

Murugan confirmed that the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting took action to block these platforms on March 14, 2024. The OTT platforms were found to be displaying content that violated the guidelines for online publishers. Some of these platforms were even involved in airing pornographic material, which prompted the Ministry to step in and enforce the rules.

List of Blocked OTT Platforms

The following platforms have been blocked: Dreams Films, Voovi, Yessma, Uncut Adda, Tri Flicks, X Prime, Neon X VIP, Besharams, Hunters, Rabbit, Xtramood, Nuefliks, MoodX, Mojflix, Hot Shots VIP, Fugi, Chikooflix, and Prime Play.

IT Rules and Code of Ethics

The IT Rules of 2021 impose due diligence obligations on online content intermediaries, urging them to actively prevent the spread of harmful and inappropriate content. The rules also include a Code of Ethics for news publishers on digital media and those in charge of online curated content, which applies to platforms like OTT services. These provisions hold content distributors accountable for any violation of ethical guidelines.

The Minister further explained that these OTT platforms were blocked for violating these standards, and the action was coordinated with various intermediaries to ensure compliance. Murugan emphasized that the guidelines are in place to protect users and ensure that content aligns with India’s cultural and ethical values.

Oversight of Digital News Publishers

In addition to OTT content, the Code of Ethics also regulates digital news publishers. These publishers must follow the Norms of Journalistic Conduct outlined by the Press Council of India. Additionally, digital content must adhere to the Program Code specified under the Cable Television (Network Regulation Act, 1995). The IT Rules also cover news channels on platforms like YouTube, including channels like Bolta Hindustan and National Dastak, ensuring they comply with the regulations.

‘Laapataa Ladies’ Fails to Make Oscars 2024 Shortlist-Telugu Funda

India’s official entry for the Best International Feature Film category at the 97th Academy Awards, Laapataa Ladies, has been eliminated from the Oscars race. Directed by Kiran Rao, the Hindi-language film did not make it to the shortlist of 15 films announced by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) on Wednesday.

UK’s ‘Santosh’ with Indian Actors Secures Spot

While Laapataa Ladies missed out, British-Indian filmmaker Sandhya Suri’s “Santosh”, featuring Indian actors Shahana Goswami and Sunita Rajwar, has been shortlisted. Representing the UK, Santosh joins other strong contenders such as:

Emilia Pérez (France)

I’m Still Here (Brazil)

Universal Language (Canada)

The Girl with the Needle (Denmark)

The Seed of the Sacred Fig (Germany)

Other films in the competition include Iceland’s Touch, Ireland’s Kneecap, and Senegal’s Dahomey, among others.

What is ‘Laapataa Ladies’ About?

The film, known as “Lost Ladies” in English, takes place in a rural Indian setting during the early 2000s. It tells the story of two brides, Phool (played by Nitanshi Goel) and Jaya (Pratibha Ranta), who are mistakenly swapped during a train ride on their wedding day. The groom, portrayed by Sparsh Shrivastav, embarks on a chaotic search for his wife.

The screenplay and dialogues were written by Sneha Desai, based on a story by Biplab Goswami. The movie features additional dialogues by Divyanidhi Sharma. It is a feminist drama told with humor and subtle commentary on gender roles.

The film premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and received positive reviews after its theatrical release on March 1. It was produced by Kindling Productions, Aamir Khan Productions, and Jio Studios.

India’s History with the Oscars

India has had limited success in the Best International Feature Film category. The last Indian film to secure a nomination was Lagaan (2002). Other finalists include Mother India and Salaam Bombay!

Although Laapataa Ladies didn’t make the cut, Naatu Naatu from RRR and The Elephant Whisperers brought India Oscars glory last year in other categories.

Oscar Timeline

The final nominations will be announced on January 17, and the Academy Awards will take place on March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, hosted by Conan O’Brien.

Allu Arjun Knocks High Court Door Over FIR in Theater Stampede Incident- Telugu Funda

Actor Allu Arjun has approached the Telangana High Court, seeking to quash a First Information Report (FIR) registered against him. The FIR, filed by Chikkadpally police in Hyderabad, named the actor as one of the accused following the death of a woman during a stampede at Sandhya 70mm theater. The tragic incident occurred on December 4, the premiere day of Pushpa 2: The Rule, in which Allu Arjun stars as the lead.

The actor’s petition requests the court to stall all proceedings, including his possible arrest, connected to FIR 376/2024, until a final decision is made. He argued that the accusations against him are baseless and lack factual evidence. The petition also highlighted that the FIR does not specify any direct allegations linking him to the tragedy.

Incident Details: Stampede During Pushpa 2 Premiere

On December 4, a massive crowd gathered at Sandhya Theatre during Pushpa 2‘s premiere to see actor Allu Arjun, who was visiting the venue with his family. Tragically, 39-year-old Revathi died from asphyxiation in the resulting stampede, while her eight-year-old son, Sreetej, sustained serious injuries and was hospitalized. According to the actor’s counsel, Arjun was inside the theater when the stampede occurred and was unaware of the situation at the time.

The production house had reportedly informed the theater management and police about the actor’s planned visit to ensure crowd control. Despite this, the theater management claimed that only limited police personnel were deployed, leading to a failure in managing the large gathering.

Legal Proceedings: FIR Filed Under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita

Following the tragedy, the Chikkadpally police filed the FIR under Sections 105 and 118 (1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The complaint was lodged by Revathi’s husband, who held the actor and theater management accountable. Police arrested the theater’s senior manager, a co-owner, and a staff member responsible for the lower balcony.

Allu Arjun, through his petition, contended that his presence at the event does not justify criminal liability. His plea emphasized that the accusations lack concrete evidence and are an attempt to misuse legal processes. The High Court is expected to hear the matter soon.

Revisiting Upendra’s ‘Super’ Dystopian Political Drama Ahead of its Spiritual Sequel, UI - Telugu Funda

Upendra is one of very few original voices of India. His films often get cult status. Ahead of the release of his latest UI on December 20th, let’s revisit UI’s spiritual prequel released in 2010, Super. 

Super is a story about Subhash Chandra Gandhi, the man who made utopian India possible with his unthinkable political philosophy. The story starts in 2030’s India where English-speaking foreigners, especially Britishers and Americans, are begging in front of the Warangal International Airport. The world economics are flipped in 2030: the dollar’s value has plummeted, Indian ethnic wear is seen as fashionable over the western wear, public spaces are filled with Hindu gods, Indians are considered as well cultured and foreigners are seens as only Rupee grabbing opportunists. As usual, the first thirty minutes was taken solely to position Upendra’s ideas of India in 2030 leaving the rest of the film to the quiet not-so-very-genetic plot of how he did what he did. 

Also Read: UI The Movie 1stSingle Set to Unveil a Musical Marvel

Aptly named, Subhash Chandra Gandhi, is a rich sentimental nationalist living in Britain, only to realise that his love for India as it is not worth it, the harsh reality hits him as he tries to solve the simple pension problem of a poor man. He also realises that the woman, Indira (Nayanthara) he married turns out to be a dupe set out to take vengeance for the injustice Gandhi allegedly caused to her elder sister Mandira. These realities make him a bad person from a good person and he sets out to teach a lesson to the whole India by becoming the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. 

Also Read: Real Star Upendra Commands Dubbing for the Magnum Opus “UI: The Movie” in Hyderabad

Let’s get real. Upendra as a filmmaker is not for everyone. Upendra’s ideas are very eccentric. He is no less than an auteur. His cultural commentaries through the films like Upendra and A are quite problematic in the real sense. However, what makes Upendra a true genius is his borderline-satire fused with preaching of ideals, HIS ideals. His views on democracy, women, monogamy, sex, public decency etc might not be accepted by all. He never imposes his ideas as preachiness. He preaches. But, not through the spectrum of black and white, but through the true essence of character itself. To make thighs more difficult, he plays both the good and the bad in his movies. Oftentimes, the character transformation is not from bad to good, but from good to bad to good (the conclusion depends on U). Therefore, it becomes frustratingly difficult to understand if the filmmaker Upendra is speaking or the character that is passing on the message. 

Upendra’s utopian Super set in 2030 is a must-watch ahead of the release of his UI, the dystopian political drama set in 2040.

 UI is going to hit the theatres on December 20th, 2024.  Follow Telugu Funda on trending Social Media Platforms for more Cinema, OTT, Political, And Sports updates

Mohan Babu Alleges Assault by Son Manoj and Daughter-in-Law Monika in Police Complaint- Telugu Funda

The long-rumored tensions within the Manchu family have now escalated into a public dispute, with veteran actor Mohan Babu and his son Manchu Manoj filing police complaints against each other. Both have alleged threats to their safety, marking a dramatic turn in their family feud.

Mohan Babu’s Allegations Against Manoj and Monika

On December 9, 2024, Mohan Babu filed a detailed police complaint that has since gone viral on social media. The veteran actor accused his younger son, Manoj, and daughter-in-law, Monika, of using intimidation tactics to take control of his home. He referred to them as “anti-social elements” and sought legal intervention for his safety.

Key Allegations by Mohan Babu

Disturbance at Home: On December 8, Manchu Manoj, who had returned to the house four months ago after leaving, caused a disturbance by bringing hired individuals to Mohan Babu’s property.

Child Abandonment: Manoj and Monika left the house that evening, leaving their seven-month-old daughter in the care of house staff.

Trespassing and Threats: The next morning, around 30 hired individuals allegedly entered Mohan Babu’s house, forcibly removed his staff, and declared the property off-limits to anyone without their permission.

Fear for Safety: Mohan Babu expressed fears of being harmed by Manoj and Monika, who he believes are trying to force him to abandon his residence.

The actor, who is 78 years old, emphasized his vulnerability as a senior citizen and requested the police to:

1. Take legal action against Manoj, Monika, and their associates.

2. Remove them and the hired individuals from his property.

3. Provide protection to ensure his safety and access to his home.

Manoj’s Counter-Complaint

On the same day, Manoj filed a separate complaint with the Pahadi Shareef Police, alleging an attack by 10 unidentified individuals on December 8. According to Manoj, he suffered blunt trauma to his spine, neck, abdomen, and calf. His complaint included a medical report to support his claims. However, Manoj’s complaint did not mention any involvement of his father or other family members.

Longstanding Family Tensions

The feud appears to be the result of deep-rooted issues. Manoj’s relationship with his brother, Vishnu, has reportedly been strained for years. Vishnu did not attend Manoj’s wedding, which fueled speculation about their disagreements. In 2023, Manoj shared a video showing Vishnu physically attacking relatives, further highlighting the family discord.

According to Sacnilk, it is now the highest-grossing Indian movie on day one, surpassing all prior records.

Allu Arjun Shines as Pushpa Raj

Fahadh Faasil returns as the menacing SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat, while Rashmika Mandanna reprises her role as Srivalli. Jagapathi Babu’s addition to the cast adds intensity to the narrative.

Critics Applaud Sukumar’s Vision

Mechanic Rocky Review: Spoiled by Treatment; Saved by Unexpected Thrill

Vishwak Sen’s latest Mechanic Rocky is a routine thriller in terms of treatment of the story, character, humour; yet the sudden spin in the story of the second-half saved this boring, uncreative mess a lot.

Nagumomu Rakesh alias Rocky is a goofy, chilled guy with backlogs in B.Tech, forced to be a mechanic by his father, Naresh. There are two actresses, Meenakshi Chowdary playing Priya and Shraddha Srinath playing Maya. Right at the moment when you begin to wonder why the filmmaker has been stretching Mays’s part as something beyond believability, the unexpected twist of spin in the character’s motives kicks in. And, the movie begins right there. 

The good part of Mechanic Rocky is its formulaic scripting, the bad part of Mechanic Rocky is also the same, its formulaic treatment of a commercial cinema. The songs, action, chases, and simpleton humour is all done and dusted elements of a stereotypical commercial cinema. Mechanic Rocky is just saved by what was not revealed through trailers and through the first-half. So, the praise must be given to the debutant writer-director Ravi Teja Mullapudi for the clever writing without revealing essential information that is required for the intended thrill in the second-half. 

Music composed by Jakes Bejoy has his signature over it; the signature of heavy fusion of many instruments. However, it never hits the roof. The songs never even register your attention. The songs are just crass trying to follow the troupe of commercial cinema’s format as a rulebook. The inclusion of Sunil just for the convenience of the hero’s plan to bring the evil down is also a commercial formula without any essence. The cinematography by Manojh Reddy Katasani also is decent, if the urge to overuse the similar drone shots over chase scenes was curtailed. 

Vishwak Sen’s Mechanic Rocky offers a small surprise in the whole mess of formulaic commericiality. TeluguFunda Rating: 2.5/5

Independent films are named because of their independence on the “industry”, either for financial support or for the stylistic tendencies. However, a 2004’s Indie film, Bommalata directed by Prakash Kovelamudi, bought all the industry forces together and made an honest attempt at making an educative film about child labour. 

Prakash is son of high-reputed Telugu Film director K Raghavendra Rao. Bommalata is his sophomore film after Neetho (2002). It was produced by Rana Daggupati’s Spirit Media. It features Allari Naresh, Shreya, Thanikella Bharani, SP Balasubramanyam (voice-over) and also Peter Haines as stunt man. Despite all the big-names, the protagonist of the movie is Sai Kumar who played the titular role of Ramu. 

Ramu’s parents are puppetry artists played by Surya and Shravani. Both are addicts of gutka (tobacco) and alcohol. Oftentimes, the children in children films behave like adults. In this film, Ramu had to become the adult and be ‘the man of the house’ as the parents lay doing nothing except waiting for the child to bring them food and beedis (handmade cigarettes). Ramu is a rag-picker earning nominal money for his hand-to-mouth existence with lots of big dreams starting with going to school. 

The playful ambitious Ramu questions the hypocrite opportunist politician for using them for a rally for eradicating child labour promising them a wage only to ditch them in the middle of the road. The story of Bommalata is the struggles of Ramu to enter the school and the hiccups he had to face. 

Bommalata is a decent children’s film with a message of education for all. Bommalata is available to stream for free on Youtube.

Thaman hypes up 'Game Changer', 'The Raja Saab', 'OG' -Telugu Funda

Thaman today said that a song titled 'Dhope' in 'Game Changer' will make waves because of its lavishness. Its visual splendour will leave the audience awe-struck, he suggested. The music director interacted with the media as he turned a year older today.

Thaman said that the third song from 'Game Changer' will drop on November 20th. Producer Dil Raju is planning to hold a musical event with fanfare in the US. The Ram Charan-Kiara Advani movie will arrive at the cinemas on January 10th, 2025.

Thaman also added that 'The Raja Saab' will have a remix song. Its name is yet to be revealed. The rest five songs will also be foot-tapping, he noted. The first song from the Prabhas movie will be released in January, 2025.

Pawan Kalyan's 'OG' will complete the pending 20% of its shoot as soon as possible. Akira Nandan will work in the music department, Thaman said.

‘Maa Nanna Superhero’: Streaming date revealed

‘Maa Nanna Superhero’, starring Sudheer Babu, Sai Chand, and Sayaji Shinde, is produced by V Celluloids and CAM Entertainment.

The film, directed by Abhilash Reddy, will start being available on ZEE5 from November 15th.

What is the film about? Prakash (Sai Chand), a lorry driver by profession, is devastated when his wife passes away after giving birth to their son, Jani. A tragic turn of events leads to Prakash being wrongfully imprisoned for 20 years. Jani (Sudheer Babu) is adopted by Srinivas (Sayaji Shinde), a kind-hearted man who is madly into stock trading. However, a series of unfortunate events cast a shadow over their relationship, leading the adoptive father to harbor resentment towards his foster son. When Srinivas faces financial ruin, he finds himself in a quandary. The rest of the film is about how this has consequences for three lives.

Film's box-office fate: It was a disaster. ‘Maa Nanna Superhero’ had so much potential but superficial writing bogs it down. Even so, by Telugu cinema’s drama standards, this one is decent in terms of its content.

Kanguva, Pushpa 2 to face opposition in Karnataka?-Telugu Funda

The Kannada film industry and the Sandalwood media are apparently upset that some of the big-ticket pan-Indian movies from Sandalwood have not tasted even a decent release in other States, especially the Telugu States and Tamil Nadu.

Actor Suriya was in Bengaluru on Monday to promote Kanguva. On the occasion, a film journalist there asked if, say, a Shivarajkumar movie were to be released in Tamil Nadu, would Suriya ensure that it gets a big release. "Your movie, Kanguva, will be released on 300 screens in Karnataka," the journo said. The tone of the questioning says it all. Kannadigas want their films to find a big release in other States because they are embracing non-Kannada movies on a big scale.

There are murmurs that Pushpa: The Rule will receive at least a minor backlash from a section of the Sandalwood media and the Kannada film industry because the Diwali release, Bagheera, was given a raw deal in the Telugu States.

Kanguva will arrive at the cinemas on November 14th. Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 will arrive at the cinemas on December 5th.

Amid controversy, BJP leader lauds blockbuster film ‘Amaran’- Telugu Funda

Amidst this, Tamil Nadu State BJP President K Annamalai has lauded the Rajkumar Perisamy directorial. “Happened to watch the movie ‘Amaran’. This is a very important one in many aspects. The bravery, courage and the integrity that our men in uniform display. The vivid portrayal of the cost a family pays when our nation’s best sacrifices themselves to protect the rest of us. Why some will always be more special than the rest of us – because they wear their uniform with pride and willingly go into harm’s way. The emotional toil and pain – the family of an army man will carry but with pride. Major. Mukund Varadharajan’s life is an inspiring story for the ages. His ultimate sacrifice for our nation in 2014 made all of us feel that we had lost something within us, as I distinctly remember those emotional moments as I was in my Khaki then,” he wrote on social media.

The appreciation is also important in the context of ‘Amaran’ being produced by Kamal Haasan, one of the staunchest anti-BJP politicians in Tamil Nadu.

Nayanthara’s Fairy Tale, Unraveled: A Docu-Drama from Netflix

Nayanthara, the undisputed Queen of South Indian Cinema, is all set to unveil a different side of herself. Her much-anticipated docu-film, Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale, is slated for a November 18th release on Netflix, coinciding with her birthday.

From Wedding Bells to Silver Screen

The docu-film will touch upon her personal life, her love story with Vignesh Shivan, and her wedding. Besides, it will also chronicle her filmography and career.

From being a nobody to being one of the highest-paid actresses in the industry, Nayanthara has come a long way. The Netflix release will also shed light on her motherhood journey through surrogacy and the conservative controversies that hobbled it.

A Glimpse into the Private Life of a Public Figure

The 1-hour 21-minute documentary promises to take viewers behind the scenes.

In a recent interview, Nayanthara rejected rumours about her undergoing plastic surgeries. “I love doing my brows. I take the time to perfect it, because it’s the real game changer. I have had different brow faces over the years. Maybe that’s why people think my face is changing, and I keep looking different,” India Today quoted her as saying.

‘Janaka Aithe Ganaka’ OTT date is out-Telugu Funda

‘Janaka Aithe Ganaka', starring Suhas in the lead, is going to stream on Aha Video from November 8th. The film also stars Goparaju Ramana, Sangeerthana Vipin, Vennela Kishore and others.

"Prepare yourself for a rollercoaster of emotions and non-stop entertainment (sic)," the OTT platform said.

What is the film about? Prasad (Suhas) is an atypical middle-class person who is not excited about seeing his DNA walk in front of his eyes. He can do without kids. He has convinced his wife and father and everyone around him of the pointlessness of having kids if one can’t afford to provide them with the best education and healthcare in the town. By a quirk of fate, Pasad’s wife gets pregnant. The culprit is a contraceptive gone rogue. The leaky condom maker must now face a legal challenge from Prasad.

Is the movie worth a watch? Yes, if you want to have some mindless fun for two hours. No, if you are looking for a meaningful, strong comedy. ‘Janaka Aithe Ganaka’ is a silly courtroom film that offers a few laughs and plenty of frustration. If you think mere mention of the word ‘condom’ stimulates horniness in men, this juvenile film is for you.

Rajamouli's Magic Wand Waves Over 'Kanguva'| Telugu Funda

In the context of 'Kanguva', we have often heard SS Rajamouli's name being invoked. Why? Director Siva is a fan of Rajamouli's filmography. He admires not just the 'Baahubali' Rajamouli but also the 'Vikramarkudu' Rajamouli.

In his promotional speeches for the Telugu version of 'Kanguva', Siva has sincerely invoked the celebrated Tollywood director. Recently, Siva said that it was Rajamouli's imagination that inspired him to make a big-scale action fantasy film like 'Kanguva'.

At yesterday's Vizag event, it was producer KE Gnanavelraja's turn to shower a panegyric on the 'RRR' maker. He said, "I dedicate 50% of the film to the Telugu audience and the rest to my guru, Rajamouli."

It is indeed a proud moment for the Telugu film fandom that Rajamouli's name has been used for promoting a gigantic Tamil film that is billed to become a bigger hit than 'Vikram', 'Jailer' and other massive hits.

'Kanguva' stars Suriya, Bobby Deol, Disha Patani and others. Its music is by Devi Sri Prasad. The film will arrive at the cinemas on November 14th.

How makers of Prabhas’ movies frustrate everyone-Telugu Funda

The makers of Prabhas’ movies have a special talent for frustrating everyone with their pointless, exaggerated announcements about announcements (or announcements about making no announcements). They are the biggest hype-bros around.

Mythri Movie Makers Mislead Fans with Prabhas Birthday Update

This year, on Prabhas’ birthday (October 23), Mythri Movie Makers put out a social media post saying that some nice update would be given in the evening. At the said time, the makers nonchalantly dropped the bad news that an update would be given on some other day. So, the previous update was about giving an update about not giving an update.
