In a long four-page letter, the Tamil Nadu Producers Council has condemned ‘personal attacks and incitement of hatred in the name of film reviews.’ They said that films like Indian 2, Vettaiyan and Kanguva were highly impacted due to YouTube FDFS public reviews.

What the letter stated

This letter comes after the release of Suriya’s film Kanguva on November 14 which saw a tremendous amount of negative feedback from the audience in the first day first show YouTube reviews and opinion videos.

The TNPC wrote that journalists have the right to criticise flaws in the film and talk about the positives and negatives but no one can engage in personal attacks and try to destroy the entire film in their reviews. According to them, this would lead to the downfall of the film industry itself.

The letter also stated, “Critics have every right to review movies. But we request all journalists to write film reviews keeping in mind that hatred towards a film should not be sown in the media because of personal malice. It is imperative that all the associations related to the film industry unite and stop this practice by not encouraging them anymore.”

More details

Kerala was the first state to establish this ban on YouTube reviews. In 2023, Mubeen Rauf, director of Aromalinte Adyathe Pranayam, who was supported by the Producers’ The Kerala High Court then Association filed a case in court to ban YouTube reviewers from theatre premises as their negative public opinion videos were affecting the film business.

Following the debacle of Kanguva, Tamil Nadu film producers have demanded a ban on YouTube channels from screening films in theatres. The controversy stemmed from the unauthorized leaking of content.

spoilers, and reviews of Kanguva on various YouTube channels before its official release, causing significant losses at the box office. Producers have expressed frustration over how these channels have been contributing to spoilers and reducing the excitement surrounding film releases.

The producers argue that such leaks negatively affect the audience’s movie-going experience, and they have been calling for stricter regulations on the distribution of content on digital platforms. These unauthorized leaks and reviews, they claim, create a preemptive judgment about the film, which can influence viewers’ decisions to watch the movie, especially if the reviews are negative or controversial.

The demand for banning YouTube channels from theatres reflects a broader concern about the unchecked spread of digital content. Many filmmakers and producers feel that these channels often compromise the integrity of a film’s theatrical release, leading to financial setbacks and spoiling the overall narrative experience for audiences.

While the issue remains unresolved, the producers have urged the government and regulatory bodies to step in and address the growing problem. They hope that the crackdown on unauthorized digital content will help maintain the sanctity of film releases in theatres, ensuring a fair environment for both producers and moviegoers.

Peddi: Impressive ₹200 Cr Box Office Chase

Peddi Day 8: Will Ram Charan Conquer Box Office Glory?

The film world is holding its breath as the much-anticipated sports action movie refuses to leave the spotlight. Audiences are caught up in a swirl of emotions as the initial box office storm transforms into an intriguing test of actual star power. It’s a fascinating story about ambition, lofty theatrical expectations, and the unexpected nature of moviegoers.

Each ticket sold represents a narrative of passion, commitment, and dramatic cinematic drama. Fans are closely following every update, wondering if this enormous spectacle can retain its beautiful momentum.



The Current Box Office Standing

The film grossed ₹6.30 crore in India on its eighth day. This milestone brings the domestic total to an amazing ₹193.55 crore net.

The aim of joining the prestigious double-century club is now agonisingly close. It’s an exciting countdown that has trade experts and moviegoers absolutely glued to the figures.

The audience’s emotional connection fuels the momentum. Despite natural weekday drops, the local regions are strongly supporting their favourite film idol.


A post-weekend dip is an unavoidable fact for any major movie release in the modern era. The film’s revenue decreased by 16.6 percent from the previous day’s ₹7.55 crore.

This drop has generated heated debates on social media over the long-term viability of big-budget initiatives. However, the continual inflow of viewers demonstrates that the cinematic fire is far from doused.

The dip is a normal market stabilisation following a wildly tumultuous first week. It demonstrates how the initial frenzy transforms into a consistent, long-term theatrical run.

Global Glory And Mighty Milestones

On a worldwide scale, the sports drama paints a truly spectacular picture of financial success. The worldwide gross collection reached ₹279.35 crore.

International markets made a significant contribution to this large global pie. On Thursday, overseas viewers added an additional ₹60 lakhs, bringing the international revenue to ₹49.40 crore.

This pushes the global presence close to the ₹280 crore threshold. It demonstrates the undeniable appeal of large-scale Indian cinema on the global stage.


Regional Strongholds Keep Fighting

The regional market is the undisputed backbone of this incredible box office run. The Telugu territories alone earned ₹5.30 crore on the seventh day.

The film was aggressively screened in a network of 7,412 theatres around the country. The previous version had a reasonable and healthy occupancy rate of 20.35%.

Other regions contributed lesser but significant sums to the overall domestic collection. Karnataka and Tamil Nadu contributed ₹55 lakhs and ₹25 lakhs, respectively.


The North Indian Market Struggle

While the Southern states celebrate, the Hindi-speaking belt has a very different tale. Since its first publication, the Hindi-dubbed version has suffered significant challenges.

The Hindi market today contributes less than five percent of overall domestic earnings. Despite heavy promotion, it is still battling to reach the small net figure of ₹15 crore.

This sharp disparity demonstrates the complexities of managing a truly pan-India release. What causes utter panic in one location may have a peaceful response elsewhere.


Controversies And Creative Corrections

A storm of social media outrage has also harmed the film’s box office performance. Viewers loudly criticised specific sequences featuring Janhvi Kapoor’s role, claiming excessive objectification.

Responding to the growing public outrage, director Buchi Babu Sana took quick corrective action. To avoid offending the viewers, the production team carefully cut out the deceptive shots.

This proactive posture demonstrates a genuine respect for the emotions of modern filmgoers. It remains to be seen how this imaginative change will affect the approaching weekend crowds.

What Lies Directly Ahead

The approaching weekend is a make-or-break moment for this ambitious theatrical project. Crossing the illusive ₹200 crore domestic net mark is the immediate golden goal.

Audiences are curious to see if the fresh modifications will draw a more diverse audience. The large fanbase’s emotional investment will be crucial in this situation.

With new cinematic competition arriving in cinemas, the battle for screens will flare up. This cinematic giant’s genuine resilience will now be put to the ultimate test.
