Thammudu Twitter reviews: Sorry Nithiin, but this disaster is no Kaithi, say viewers
Thammudu Twitter reviews: Nithiin has not had the best time at the box office lately. The actor, who was last seen in Robinhood, stars in Sriram Venu's Thammudu, which was released in theatres this Friday. Bold move considering that the title is taken from Pawan Kalyan's hit 1999 sports film. Unfortunately, X (formerly Twitter) was not impressed with the film. Thammudu Twitter reviews: Nithiin in a still from Sriram Venu's film. 'Thammudu is no Kaithi' Most fans who watched Thammudu just seemed frustrated at Nithiin for selecting a script like this. One X user wrote, '#Thammudu Worst! Thanks to #Nithin for continuously reminding me that I am an idiot to watch his movies on premiere night. The movie neither had emotional drama nor action as they 'promised'.' Another asked both the director and actor to keep up with the time, writing, 'Sorry @actor_nithiin & #SriramVenu. This team should really consider time travel to at least to 2020 from 2005 scripts. Not to bash the team but please ensure delivering a minimum guaranteed movie. Slow-paced and predictable scenes. Actors performed well but a strict 1.5.' An X user wrote, 'Another Film Another disaster for Nithin it's continues from half a decade. All Hopes on #yallamma.' A person wrote that Sriram and Nithiin tried to make a Kaithi, but failed, '#Thammudu 1st time. Sorry #Nithin anna good luck for next film. Oka racy film thiyyali, villains chase chestunnaru vallanunchi thappinchukovali (like khaidhi) anna point theeskunnaka madhyalo songs, comedy petti dhobbinchuko cinema aapi flashback lu. (Sorry, brother Nithiin, good luck with the next film. Though you made a film that had the scope to be racy like Kaithi, it was ruined by songs, comedy and flashbacks.) ' One X user wrote that Thammudu 'tests your patience from start to finish', adding, 'Director Venu Sriram attempts to deliver a unique action-adventure film with an interesting backdrop. However, he completely fails. The on-screen proceedings are outright silly at times, coupled with a core brotherhood emotion that is poorly executed. The villain's characterization is somewhat unique, but the conflict point and its execution come off as unintentionally funny.' They rounded up the review by calling it 'outright bad' and rating it 1.75/5. 'Thammudu is not that bad' Some fans, however, were impressed by the film, or at least thought it wasn't as bad as it's being made out to be. One X user wrote, '#thammudu is not bad. Could have been is an okayish brother-sister drama ...1.75 antha disaster ayithe kaadu. Reviews are intentionally poor for reasons unknown…' Another wrote, 'Superb first half #Thammudu. Second half has excellent fight sequences…fans ki full meals aa fight sequences…Overall good movie. One time watch. Must in Theaters.' A fan even thought Nithiin gave his career best performance in Thammudu, '#Thammudu Review : A Good emotional Ride with Solid Production values - ⅗. Mainly Youth Star @actor_nithiin has given one of the career best performance with a good comeback film #Nithiin. Director #SriramVenu Handled the subject very well with gripping screenplay and @AJANEESHB BGM AND MUSIC IS LIT. Lead actors #Laya @gowda_sapthami and @VarshaBollamma are good in their roles.'

KEA introduces option entry fee for professional course seat allotment
Mysuru: Ahead of the crucial option entry process to allot seats for various professional courses, the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) introduced a new rule. As per the guidelines, students need to pay Rs 750 to make option entries. A section of students is irked by the KEA decision, while officials justified it. KEA officials made it clear that this is not a new fee and is required to ensure total transparency in the entire process. According to the All India Democratic Students' Organisation (AIDSO), Mysuru district committee, this year, CET candidates are asked to make a Rs 750 payment during the option entry process. "Imposing an additional Rs 750 at the option entry stage is not only burdensome but also reveals an exploitative mindset. With over 4 lakh students participating in this process, the move will generate a staggering revenue of over Rs 300 crore for KEA," the organisation alleged. "What is the real purpose behind this fee? Is it meant to serve any genuine administrative necessity, or is it simply a method of extracting money from students and their families?" they questioned. KEA, as a state govt body, should be facilitating education, not profiting from it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah? IC Markets Mendaftar Undo At a time when higher education is becoming increasingly inaccessible to students from economically weaker backgrounds, such policies only worsen the situation and increase the financial pressure on aspiring youth, said Nithin, district secretary, AIDSO Mysuru. "We strongly condemn this anti-student step and demand the immediate withdrawal of the option entry fee. We appeal to all students, parents, and concerned citizens to raise their voices against this unjust imposition and stand united for affordable and equitable education," he stated. Meanwhile, KEA officials justified the decision. KEA executive director H Prasanna Kumar informed that it is a one-time payment. "Last year, we took Rs 750 during college fee payment. Now we are asking before that," he said. "The reason behind this exercise is to let interested students only fill the option because after the first round of seat allotment, around 14,000 students didn't select the appropriate choice last year," he said. Sources in the state higher education department informed that this fee will ensure that the authorities can track the students who make option entries. "It will help the govt in its effort to end the seat blocking menace," said an officer.

Students collect 10 lakh signatures for ‘Save Public Education' campaign: AIDSO
MYSURU The Mysore district committee of the All India Democratic Students' Organisation (AIDSO) has lauded students, parents, teachers, and the people of Karnataka for collecting over 10 lakh signatures as part of the ongoing campaign to 'Save Public Education'. In a statement, AIDSO district secretary Nithin said the campaign, launched under the slogan 'Save Public Education', aims to gather 50 lakh signatures to demand the strengthening of government schools and colleges. 'Reaching this milestone marks a significant stage in our movement. The unity, courage, and commitment shown by students in opposing the anti-people decision of the State government to reportedly close 6,200 government schools under the guise of consolidation through the Hub and Spoke model proves that even the impossible can be made possible,' he said. Each signature collected is more than just ink on paper—it represents the heartfelt voice of every individual fighting to uphold every child's right to free and quality education. 'This achievement gives us greater strength to push the movement forward,' he said. The AIDSO district committee has urged the students and supporters to intensify their efforts to achieve the target of 50 lakh signatures and reaffirmed its commitment to safeguarding the future of children and public education, the statement said.
