Mass Ka Das Vishwaksen is back, and this time he's going all-in with his next project titled #CULT, a high-octane, new-age party thriller inspired by real events. Proving once again that he's more than just an actor, Vishwaksen takes the reins as writer and director for this ambitious film, which is being bankrolled by Karate Raju and Sandeep Kakarala under the banners of Tarak Cinemas and Vanmaye Creations.
Unveiled in a vibrant announcement poster, #CULT hints at its wild and unconventional tone. The image shows the protagonist in a goat mask surrounded by confetti and cargo containers, giving audiences a taste of the edgy, unpredictable journey that lies ahead.
The film was officially launched today at Ramanaidu Studios in a grand event. S Radha Krishna (Chinna Babu) unveiled the title logo, Talasani Srinivas Yadav switched on the camera for the muhurtham shot, and Allu Aravind gave the first clap, marking the beginning of the shoot.
In a bold move, Vishwaksen is introducing 40 debutants through the film, while surrounding himself with a team of stellar technicians. Acclaimed filmmaker Tharun Bhascker has penned the dialogues, while KGF and Salaar composer Ravi Basrur is handling the music. Arvind Vishwanathan is the DOP, Ravi Teja Girijala takes care of editing, and Arvind Mule leads the art department.
Taking it global, #CULT is set to release in Telugu, Hindi, Japanese, Spanish, and English, making it one of the most exciting and unique pan-world releases in Indian cinema.

Jacqueline Fernandez Holds On To Salman Khan's Arm As She Celebrates 11 Years Of Kick

Last Updated: Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez's Kick celebrates 11 years today. The actress shared many iconic moments from the film on her Instagram story. Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez's Kick celebrates 11 years of its release today. On social media, fans have been hailing the electrifying chemistry between Salman and Jacqueline and the film's emotional core. Amidst all the high-octane action and grand drama, it was the playful, heartfelt moments between Devi and Shaina that truly struck a chord with the audience. Jacqueline took to Instagram and reshared moments from the film featuring Salman. In one of the pictures, Jacqueline gently holds Salman's arm, marking a memorable still from the film. Another was a video of Bollywood's Bhaijaan dancing his heart out. Jacqueline shared the glimpses with multiple red heart emojis. Take a look: Nawazuddin Siddiqui as the menacing Shiv Gajra Among his many unforgettable characters, Nawazuddin's portrayal of Shiv Gajra in Kick remains one of the most iconic. Starring alongside Salman Khan, Nawaz played the cold-blooded antagonist that left audiences spellbound. From spine-chilling dialogues to that unforgettable gun-click moment, every move he made on screen was a masterclass in menace. His complete transformation into Shiv Gajra – and the way he made evil feel both terrifying and magnetic – cemented the character as one of Bollywood's most iconic villains. As the film marks its anniversary today, even 11 years later, fans continue to celebrate the performance that redefined villainy in Hindi cinema. Talking about the love he received and how the role impacted his journey as an actor, Nawazuddin Siddiqui reflected with heartfelt gratitude. He said, 'Main bahut shukarguzar hoon for the love and appreciation that I had received for my role as Shiv Gajra. Yeh, ek aisa role tha jisne meri career mein ek naye rang bhar diya tha. It's a testament to how powerful cinema can be. Dil se shukriya sabko." What are some of the key scenes from Kick? In a film brimming with larger-than-life moments, one scene from Kick that quietly shines is when Devi (Salman) and Shaina (Jacqueline) ride a bullet cart to the temple. There's no dramatic confrontation – just playful glances, a breezy exchange, and an unspoken warmth that speaks louder than words. Another emotionally charged scene unfolds when Shaina unexpectedly crosses paths with Devi once more. But he's changed – aloof, distant, and pretending not to know her. Jacqueline's bewildered heartbreak, paired with Salman's cryptic smirk, gives the moment a bittersweet depth, layered with unspoken emotions, nostalgia, and unresolved love. In fact, their first meeting on the train, meanwhile, is pure rom-com magic. Salman's laid-back charisma meets Jacqueline's graceful sass, sparking a natural, witty chemistry that's instantly captivating. Directed by Sajid Nadiadwala, Kick featured Salman Khan as the thrill-seeking Devil, Nawazuddin Siddiqui as the menacing Shiv Gajra, Randeep Hooda as a determined cop, and Jacqueline Fernandez. The film became a blockbuster, loved for its action and performances. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
