A similar video with actor Allu Arjun was released back in April, where the actor was seen flying to Los Angeles along with Atlee and meeting the team of VFX. The film, seemingly a period drama, is said to feature some creatures as well.

After the success of Pushpa: The Rise and Pushpa: The Rule, AA22 will mark the first ever collaboration of the actor with Atlee in his acting career.
Deepika Padukone has lately signed several pan-India projects headed by South filmmakers. After starring in Atlee's Jawan and Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD, she was set to star opposite Prabhas in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit. However, due to disagreement on shift timings and remuneration, the actress walked out of the film. The incident eventually turned into a feud. Now, the actor has announced her second collaboration with Atlee after their 2024 film Jawan, which earned over Rs 1000 crore worldwide.

Rupali Ganguly demands National Awards for TV artistes, says Smriti Irani's return can make a difference
The 71st National Film Awards recently created a buzz on social media, as actors like Shah Rukh Khan (Best Actor for Jawan), Rani Mukerji (Best Actress for Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway) and Vikrant Massey (Best Actor for 12th Fail), among others were honoured for their performances. While the film industry celebrated its moment of glory, television star Rupali Ganguly, best known for playing the lead role in Anupamaa, voiced a powerful concern: why is Indian television still overlooked at the National Awards? Rupali Ganguly demands National Awards for television industry. Rupali Gnguly demands National Awards for television industry In a conversation with paparazzi account Viral Bhayani, Ganguly said, "There are National Awards for everyone from film stars to content creators. But there's nothing for TV artistes. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, others had the advantage of delaying their shooting schedules, but we kept working. When a film star works continuously, it makes headlines. But no one talked about how we, the TV artists, worked non-stop from 6 am to 6 pm during the pandemic. I request the government to consider us also. We work very hard; it'll be nice to have some validation." Rupali Ganguly on Smriti Irani's comeback Rupali further hoped that Smriti Irani's comeback might take the TV industry towards that direction and added, "Smriti Irani returned to TV with the new version of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, and it's airing on the same channel as my show. I am very proud that Smriti ji returned to TV, it's such a big validation. Her comeback will make a lot of difference, and it will bring all the eyes back to television. Smriti Irani, who originally rose to fame with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, has returned to the screen with a reboot of the iconic Ektaa Kapoor show. The comeback has left fans nostalgic, and the new version is already receiving considerable love from viewers. The show also stars Hiten Tejwani, Amar Upadhyay, Gauri Pradhan, and Kamalika Guha Thakurta, among others. Meanwhile, Anupamaa continues to dominate the TRP charts for the fifth consecutive year, with Rupali's performance as the titular character making her a household name. While there were rumours of a rift between the teams of Anupamaa and Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Rupali and producer Ektaa Kapoor have dismissed the speculation and urged fans not to compare the two shows.
