Sivaji Ganesan's family settles loan dispute over Annai Illam house

Time of India23-06-2025
Chennai: Actor Sivaji Ganesan's family has informed the Madras high court that they have reached a settlement in his grandson Dushyanth's loan dispute case. As a result, Danabhakiyam Enterprises, which earlier sought to seize Sivaji's 'Annai Illam' residence, has now withdrawn its appeal.
Dushyanth borrowed ₹3 crore from Danabhakiyam Enterprises to produce a film titled 'Jagajala Killadi'. The company filed a case in the high court demanding repayment of ₹9 crore, including interest. Based on an HC directive, the matter was taken up for arbitration. The arbitrator, after hearing the case, ordered that all rights to the film 'Jagajala Killadi' be transferred to Danabhakiyam Enterprises.
Following this, Danabhakiyam Enterprises filed a petition seeking enforcement of the order and also requested the seizure of 'Annai Illam' residence.
Justice Abdul Quddhose, who heard the petition, ordered the seizure of the 'Annai Illam' house.
However, actor Prabhu (Sivaji Ganesan's son) filed a petition stating that the house legally belonged to him as it was willed to him by his father, Sivaji Ganesan. He requested that the seizure order be cancelled. After reviewing the petition, Justice Abdul Quddhose ruled that Prabhu is the rightful owner of the 'Annai Illam' house and revoked the seizure order.

BTS' V and Jungkook Defamation case update: Unable to reach a settlement with YouTuber

BTS members V and Jungkook have been at the centre of a defamation case with the infamous YouTuber Sojang. Known to target celebrities and online personalities and share defamatory content, the operator of the channel and the BTS members were unable to settle in a recent case hearing. BTS V and Jungkook fail to settle defamation case The BTS members earlier this year had filed a defamation case against the owner of the online channel Sojang. As per Allkpop reports, the 1st Mediation Division of the Seoul Western District Court held a special hearing on July 21, in the form of a mediation session. The aim was to ensure that both parties could appeal their case concerning the defamation lawsuit that was filed in March 2023. However, the BTS members were unable to settle with the alleged perpetrators. This ensures that a regular trial will now be carried on in order to determine whether the actions of the YourTuber are punishable or not. About the case In March 2023, BTS's company officially filed a damages claim against the channel, seeking 90 million KRW in total for the distress that was caused to the members by their videos. In February, the court reached an order which ruled that the YouTuber pay 51 million KRW to the management agency, 10 million KRW to V, and 15 million KRW to Jungkook. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Paras Sector 59 Gurgaon | Luxury Awaits at Paras Floret Paras The Florett Book Now Undo Both sides appealed this ruling soon after the announcement, resulting in an ongoing trial.

Anupama Prakash makes her tollywood debut with Mr Reddy

Actor and producer Anupama Prakash is stepping into a new cinematic territory with her Telugu debut, Mr Reddy , directed by Venkat Reddy and produced by TNR and Rajeev Reddy. The film, set to hit theatres on 18 July 2025, marks a significant milestone in her career as she takes centre stage in Tollywood for the very first time. Known for her layered performances and effortless screen presence, Anupama's journey has never followed a conventional path. With every new project, she expands her creative horizon — and this foray into Telugu cinema is no detour. It's a strategic progression, rooted in her desire to evolve as a pan-Indian performer. In Mr Reddy , early feedback from the film's rushes suggests that her character is central to the narrative, with emotional complexity and quiet intensity. The story delves into themes of family loyalty and personal ambition, offering her a canvas that blends subtlety with strength. The music amplifies this further, complementing the silences and moments of internal conflict that define her role. But this is just the beginning. Anupama is already working on three more Telugu films, each at different stages of production. Varying in tone and genre, these projects reinforce her commitment to versatility and substance — hallmarks of her acting choices from the start. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like AirSense 11 – Smart tech for deep sleep ResMed Buy Now Undo Simultaneously, she's making waves in Bollywood with her upcoming Hindi feature What's Up , currently in post-production. Set against a contemporary urban backdrop, the film explores the blurred lines between friendship, identity, and emotional clarity. Anupama's performance — balancing wit and vulnerability — has already been described by the director as 'honest and rooted, with an instinctive feel for how scenes should breathe.' 2025, however, is not just about acting for Anupama. It's also the year she dons the producer's hat. Along with creative partner Tushar Mehta, she has co-founded Kaccha Lemmon Productions — a Mumbai-based production house with a focus on fresh storytelling, emerging talent, and unconventional formats. The production company has launched with a diverse slate that includes the youth-centric web series Band Baja Aafat , the feature film What's Up , and a vibrant indie-pop music video Mirchi Billi , already gaining attention across streaming platforms. Importantly, Kaccha Lemmon Productions is not a vanity label — both Anupama and Tushar are hands-on with every project, involved from development and casting to final edits. Anupama's goal as a producer is clear: to create space for bold, meaningful narratives that often get overlooked by traditional studios. In several interviews, she's emphasised her belief in content that has 'sharp edges, layered characters, and emotional truth' — values that she upholds across formats and languages. Whether it's the grounded humour of What's Up , the youthful chaos of Band Baja Aafat , or the musical flair of Mirchi Billi , each project reflects a clear vision: to take creative risks, reach new audiences, and tell stories that resonate with the realities of today's generation. With multiple releases lined up across platforms and languages, 2025 is shaping up to be a breakout year in Anupama's career. But beyond the sheer volume of work, what stands out is her clarity of purpose. Whether she's on a Telugu film set in Hyderabad or in a writers' room in Mumbai, her focus remains unwavering — to pursue meaningful work, delivered with sincerity and built on trust. As Mr. Reddy readies for release, Anupama is not just stepping into Tollywood — she's steadily building a pan-Indian creative legacy. With her distinct choices as an actor and her emerging voice as a producer, she's not following trends — she's setting her own. And that's what makes her journey one to watch.
