Poster description
As of now, the makers of the film, 'Oru Durooha Saahacharyathil,' have not officially revealed a detailed plot synopsis. However, based on the first-look poster and director Ratheesh Balakrishnan Poduval's comments, the film is positioned as a psychological comedy with satirical undertones.
The poster showcases the principal cast as Kunchacko Boban, Sajin Gopu, and Chidambaram, who are wearing military green uniforms; strategically moving Dileesh Pothan's hands to aim guns at the viewer; and suggestively framing a surreal image to playfully interrogate ideas of mind control, absurdity, or a combination of character motivations, but perhaps more delicately examining how people are subjected to influence, coercion, or compliance in certain social and institutional conditions.
Also, having seen Ratheesh's previous subversive take on his films like 'Nna Thaan Case Kodu,' the film is expected to cross genres of absurdist humor and critique power structures or psychological abuses.

'Mahavtar Narsimha' dominates over 'Saiyaara', 'Son Of Sardaar 2', 'Dhadak 2' at the box office, collects Rs 15 crore on its second Saturday
It's a busy weekend at the theatres with four movies competing against each other at the moment. While 'Saiyaara' has been ruling at the box office ever since the movie released, this Friday, which is August 1 saw the release of two anticipated sequels - 'Son Of Sardaar 2' and 'Dhadak 2' which stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. But amidst these three movies, now 'Mahavtar Narsimha' came out of nowhere last week and has now seen incredible growth due to positive word of mouth. On its second Saturday, which is August 2, the movie collected much more than what it made even on first Saturday. So much so, that it is dominating over 'Saiyaara' and even the other two new releases. Mahavtar Narsimha dominates over other releases on Saturday As per early estimates from Sacnilk at Saturday night, 'Mahavtar Narsimha' has collected Rs 15 crore at the box office on its day 9 which is second Saturday. This is huge. It had made only Rs 4.6 crore on its first Saturday. The total collection of the film so far in all languages, is Rs 67.95 crore. It has performed the best in Hindi language. Meanwhile, as per the same website, 'Son Of Sardaar 2' has made Rs 7.50 crore as per early estimates. 'Dhadak 2' made Rs 3.75 crore on Saturday. Meanwhile, 'Saiyaara' has collected Rs 6.35 crore on its day 16. All these are the early estimates on Saturday night. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Thailand: New Container Houses (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search ads Search Now Undo The total collection of 'Saiyaara' now stands at Rs 291.35 crore. If the film sees growth on Sunday, it will be able to cross Rs 300 crore or that would happen on Monday. According to Box Office India, Dhadak (2018) earned nearly ₹9 crore nett on its first day, but that's not a fair comparison since it had hugely popular music backing it. Movies like this aren't really about opening-day numbers—they rely more on how they perform in the days that follow. That's very different from a film like Son of Sardaar 2, where a strong day one is absolutely key. But that unfortunately did not happen as there's been low buzz surrounding this Ajay Devgn starrer.

That's right, two brothers, two legendary careers, one unforgettable legacy. And it wasn't just about football stats or highlight reels. It was about family, perseverance, and a decades-long fight for respect. For Shannon, it was the moment he'd literally said he'd trade his own career for. For Sterling, it was long overdue recognition. For the NFL? It was history. The Sharpe brothers become the first siblings in Hall of Fame history, and the ceremony couldn't have been more emotional Sterling Sharpe, the legendary Packers receiver, finally got his gold jacket in Canton. Standing beside him? None other than his younger brother, Shannon- The NFL icon, TV personality, and Hall of Famer since 2011, who proudly presented the jacket.

Now, 14 years later, that dream became real. Sources say Shannon even asked ESPN to delay announcing his departure from the network so it wouldn't overshadow Sterling's moment in the spotlight. If that doesn't say brotherhood, what does? Sterling's career may have been cut short, but his numbers were always Hall of Fame-worthy Sterling Sharpe only played seven NFL seasons due to a career-ending neck injury, but the guy was an absolute force. He racked up five Pro Bowl selections, three All-Pro nods, and led the league in receptions, yards, and touchdowns at different points. In 1992, he completed the Triple Crown for receivers, an insanely rare feat. It was never about the quantity of seasons with Sterling. It was always about quality. Still, the Hall of Fame doors stayed shut for years. That is, until 2025. Shannon said it best: 'Everything I am, everything people know me for, I got from you.' This moment wasn't about analysts or sportswriters, it was about two brothers who beat the odds, inspired each other, and redefined greatness.
