Hari Hara Veera Mallu director Jyothi Krisna has a message for trolls targeting Pawan Kalyan film: ‘Nothing can stop us'
The trailer saw Pawan as Veera Mallu travelling from Golconda to Delhi to face off Bobby's Aurangzeb in Delhi. Nidhhi is seen as Panchami, a dancer who seeks Veera Mallu's help. The trailer is filled with action shots where the titular character sometimes brandishes more than one spear. One scene even shows him blocking a sea of spears, which was promptly made fun of on X (formerly Twitter).
Another scene at the end of the trailer shows him coming face to face with a wolf while holding a torch in his hand. Some believed the VFX was shoddy, while others believed he was facing off a fox, a nickname Pawan's fans had given to Allu Arjun ever since he supported his uncle's rival Silpa Ravi. Some laughed, thinking Pawan was facing a fox in the scene, while an X user mocked the VFX, writing, 'Rajasaab vs Hari Hara Veera Mallu, Clash of Ameerpet VFX.' Jyothi Krisna addresses trolls, says nothing can stop them
Jyothi began his speech at the trailer launch by discussing the negativity Hari Hara Veera Mallu has faced: 'I've decided to talk about a few people after the trailer launch now. I don't even know how they are or what they look like. There has been a lot of negativity ever since we began shooting this film. They spread false news that this movie wouldn't be released, and it had been stalled.'
He then spoke of how nothing would stop the team and said, 'It has been five years since we began filming this. We faced two lockdowns during the pandemic, but our work didn't stop. Then there were elections, and Powerstar became the Deputy CM. Still, they didn't stop, nor did we. Only you (fans) and I know that nothing can stop us or a Powerstar film.'
Jyothi also addressed how the film is mounted on a huge budget, which naysayers believe will cause losses for the producers. He said, 'Some even asked if the film would work out because of the huge budget. But money can be no barrier for our Powerstar.'
HHVM was one of the three films Pawan had signed before he campaigned for the AP elections and became the Deputy CM of the state. It will be released on 24 July. He also has Sujeeth's They Call Him OG and Harish Shankar's Ustaad Bhagat Singh lined up.

This actor worked in over 500 films, had no money to afford a car, lived in a house with no electricity, name was..., his son is... Stories of yesteryear actors facing financial struggles later in their lives aren't rare. Many major movie stars who are very successful in 90s often found themselves penniless in their old age. This often happened because they didn't save enough money to prepare themselves financially during difficult times. Once such actor who acted in over 500 films, and shared screen space with superstars like Amitabh Bachchan and Rajesh Khanna, found himself destitute in his old age. This Mughal-E-Azam actor struggled financially Recently, in an interview, actor Raza Murad cited his father, veteran actor Murad's example, to talk about the importance of saving money. His father was a character actor, who starred in some iconic films like D o Bigha Zamin, Mughal-E-Azam, Andaz, even did a Hollywood project, Tarzan Goes to India. In a candid chat with Filmy Charcha, Raza Murad recounted the financial difficulties his family faced, despite his father being a consistent actor. 'I have experienced poverty. Our house in Bhopal didn't have electricity. I would have to study for my exams under a lamp post. I would start at midnight and finish at 6 am.' He said. Raza Murad on why many yesteryear stars had no money in the end Raza Murad mentioned that many yesteryear actors were responsible for their own financial setbacks as they didn't plan better for the future. He stated, 'When you earn money, you should think about your old age. Even crew members in our industry have their own houses. They have savings. They know that income could stop any day, they know that their health could fail. Why should you beg before someone? I wouldn't want to take any names, but there were many actors who were extremely busy during their heyday. They earned a lot of money and fame, but they spent all of it. When they grew older, they were forced to live in rented accommodation even though they used to live in lavish bungalows. I saw them travelling by auto rickshaws.' Raza revealed that even though his father worked in several movies, but still it didn't save them from financial distress. 'A lot of people didn't save. There were many heroes from the 50s and 60s who were much in demand during their peak, but had tremendous difficulty in their old age. They should have planned for the future. It's so unfortunate, but such is life. You must think about your family's future as well. If you have children, then it is your responsibility to look after them. I've seen this personally. My father must have worked in over 500 films. But we never had a car, and we used to live in a rented house. The first thing I did after establishing myself was to buy a house. Sometimes, you learn what not to do in life from your elders. I don't want to disparage my father; he lived like he wanted to. But I established myself at the right time, otherwise…' The veteran actor said.

‘Mountains of pride': Amitabh Bachchan reviews Abhishek Bachchan's 'Kaalidhar Laapata'
Actor Amitabh Bachchan has expressed pride over the positive response to his son Abhishek Bachchan's latest film Kaalidhar Laapata, which is currently streaming on ZEE5. Taking to social media and his blog, the senior Bachchan shared his reaction as praise for the film and Abhishek's performance poured in. 'With the mountains of praise coming for Abhishek and the film Kaalidhar Laapata, mountains of pride fill my heart and mind for my SON,' Amitabh wrote on X (formerly Twitter). He also shared a message he received from actor-director Tinnu Anand, who had high praise for Abhishek's performance. 'Sirjee, as I don't have Abhishek's number, could you please congratulate him from my side? He is absolutely brilliant in Kaalidhar Laapata. Warmth,' read Anand's message. On his blog, Amitabh reflected on both personal and technical setbacks, writing, 'When your children are about and by your side, the world can be conquered. When your technology is not by your side, your entire world can be destroyed.' Directed by Madhumita, Kaalidhar Laapata follows the story of Kaalidhar (played by Abhishek Bachchan), a middle-aged man suffering from memory loss and emotional neglect. The plot takes a turn when he discovers his siblings' plan to abandon him at the Maha Kumbh Mela. Before they can act, Kaalidhar disappears on his own. He soon crosses paths with Ballu (played by Daivik Bhagela), an 8-year-old navigating life alone on the streets. Their unlikely friendship forms the emotional core of the film. Speaking about the project, Abhishek said, 'Playing Kaalidhar was not just a role, it was a revelation. He's fragile, childlike, and deeply human. His bond with Ballu reminded me how the most unexpected friendships can offer the most profound lessons.'

History Today: When Anne Frank went into hiding and wrote 'Diary of a Young Girl'
Anne Frank, one of the most famous diarists during World War II, went into hiding with her family in Amsterdam on July 6, 1942. The Frank family went into hiding in 'The Secret Annexe' in the building that housed her father's business. Also, on this day in 1957, Althea Gibson etched history by becoming the first African-American woman to win a singles title at Wimbledon read more Dr Otto Frank holds the Golden Pan award, given for the sale of one million copies of the famous paperback, 'The Diary of Anne Frank'. File image/AP 'The Diary of a Young Girl' explores the life of 13-year-old Anne Frank, who went into hiding after the Germans began hunting Jews in the Netherlands. It was on July 6, 1942, that the Frank family went into hiding to escape persecution during World War II. If you are a history geek who loves to learn about important events from the past, Firstpost Explainers' ongoing series, History Today, will be your one-stop destination to explore key events. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD On this day in 1957, Althea Gibson became the first African American woman to win the Wimbledon singles title. Her victory at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club was a monumental achievement, breaking racial barriers in a sport that had long been largely segregated. Here is all that happened on this day. Anne Frank went into hiding in Amsterdam Anne Frank along with her family went into hiding in Amsterdam on July 6, 1942, to escape Nazi persecution of Jews during World War II. The day before, Anne's older sister Margot had received a call-up notice from the Nazi authorities, ordering her to report for a so-called 'labour camp' in Germany. Fearing deportation, the Franks made the immediate decision to move into their prepared hiding place, the Secret Annexe, earlier than planned. The Secret Annexe was a concealed space behind a movable bookcase in the building of Anne's father, Otto Frank's, business. Along with Anne, her sister Margot, parents Otto and Edith Frank and later, the van Pels family and dentist Fritz Pfeffer, eight people in total lived in cramped quarters under constant threat of discovery. A full-scale replica of the secret annex where Anne Frank penned her famous diary has opened in New York City. File image/AP Anne took with her the red-checkered diary she had received on her 13th birthday just a few weeks earlier. In it, she began documenting her daily experiences, thoughts, fears, and hopes while in hiding. Her diary would go on to become one of the most powerful firsthand accounts of life under Nazi terror. The Franks remained hidden in the annexe for two years, relying on the help of loyal non-Jewish friends and colleagues who provided food, news, and support. Tragically, on August 4, 1944, the hiding place was betrayed, and the occupants were arrested by the Gestapo. Anne died of typhus in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in early 1945. Otto, the only surviving member of the group, later published her diary under the title The Diary of a Young Girl. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD First African American woman won Wimbledon We remember tennis stars like Serena and Venus Williams, who have ruled the court for decades. But, it was Althea Gibson who etched history on this day in 1957 by becoming the first African American woman to win a singles title at Wimbledon, one of tennis's most prestigious tournaments. Born in South Carolina in 1927 and raised in New York, Gibson overcame tremendous racial and social barriers. In the 1950s, tennis was largely segregated, with many top tournaments closed to Black players. However, her undeniable talent forced the world to take notice. With the support of tennis allies and civil rights advocates, she broke into elite-level competition, becoming the first Black player to compete at the US Nationals in 1950 and at Wimbledon in 1951. Tennis icon Althea Gibson was named Female Athlete of the Year in 1957 and1958 by the Associated Press. File image/AP Her breakthrough year came in 1956 when she became the first African American to win a singles title at the French Championships (now the French Open), where she also secured a doubles title. Her 1957 Wimbledon victory elevated her to global stardom. She was given a ticker-tape parade in New York City and was named the Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year in 1957 and again in 1958, when she won Wimbledon for the second time. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Althea Gibson paved the way for future generations of African American athletes, including Arthur Ashe, Venus and Serena Williams, and others who have followed in her footsteps. Her courage, excellence, and perseverance shattered long-standing barriers and changed the face of tennis forever. This Day, That Year On this day in 1964, Nyasaland broke from British rule and became the independent country of Malawi within the Commonwealth of Nations. The first full-length all-talking motion picture, Lights of New York, premiered in New York City in 1928.
