Vijay Deverakonda's 'Kingdom' Renamed For Hindi Release; Here's What It's Now Titled
Directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri, renowned for the critically acclaimed Jersey, the film features Vijay Deverakonda in an unprecedented role. Rugged and physically transformed, his character rises from a violent past to lead a kingdom plagued by deceit and shattered loyalties. 'Saamrajya is about a man who never aspired to the throne but is compelled to ascend because the world around him crumbles. His scars narrate the downfall of a world and potentially its rebirth," explained Tinnanuri, discussing the film's emotional core. Take a look at the new poster of Vijay Deverakonda's Saamrajya: Saamrajya is produced by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, with Aditya Bhatia from Adwise Movies and Atul Rajani presenting the Hindi release. The teaser garnered millions of views within hours of its release, featuring voiceovers by Jr NTR (Telugu), Suriya (Tamil), and Ranbir Kapoor (Hindi), enhancing its cross-language appeal. The Hindi dubbed version will be distributed by AA Films across North India. In a former interview with NEWS9 Live, Vijay revealed that Ranbir Kapoor agreed to lend his voice to the teaser even before Vijay had asked. He credited Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the director of Arjun Reddy who worked with Ranbir on Animal, for connecting them. Vijay said, 'I just texted RK and he knew what I was going to ask even before I asked him. I had told Sandeep that I wanted RK's voice in the film's Hindi teaser and he had informed RK about it. Even before I asked RK, he said, 'Of course I am doing your teaser man.' I was like, 'I didn't even ask yet. Let me tell you what is it.' Even before I asked him he said yes." Kingdom AKA Saamrajya's buzz is further amplified by a unique AI-designed video, praised in industry circles for its innovative approach. The background score is composed by Anirudh Ravichander, with cinematography by Girish Gangadharan and Jomon T. John. The film also stars Satyadev and Bhagyashri Borse. Saamrajya will be released in Telugu, Hindi, and Tamil. With its high-octane action and strong emotional core, the film is poised to be one of the major Indian releases of 2025.

Oklahoma mum charged with murder after ‘drunken sleep' ends in newborn's death
A shocking tragedy has emerged from Oklahoma City where 33-year-old Brennan Spencer has been arrested and charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of her infant son, RK. The incident took place in 2024, but charges were formally filed just last week. Oklahoma mum charged with murder after tragic death of newborn According to an arrest affidavit, Spencer spent the night of November 1 drinking White Claws with her partner, James Kelson, at their home. The couple reportedly split a 12-pack before midnight. Kelson told police that after they drank, Spencer took their newborn twins—RK and LK—to bed with her while he turned in for the night. Police arrested a woman who they claim struck a mother and her two children during a fireworks display, killing a 3-year-old boy, and drove away, all without a valid Spencer later told investigators that Kelson had asked her to buy more alcohol, leading her to a nearby 7-Eleven. Surveillance footage confirmed she left the store at 1:27 a.m. with four "tall boy" cans of White Claw. But instead of returning to the bedroom, Spencer passed out on the living room couch with one of the twins in her arms. Infant found dead at her feet Kelson awoke at 6:45 a.m. to find Spencer and the babies missing. He found her on the living room couch, holding their daughter while their son lay lifeless at her feet. Paramedics arrived quickly but declared RK dead at the scene. The medical examiner later determined that the child died from 'asphyxia due to an unsafe sleep environment.' A child abuse specialist reported that Spencer's high level of intoxication likely contributed to the death and that if RK had been placed in a bassinet, he would likely still be alive. 'Probably really drunk,' she told police During a police interview, Spencer admitted she had been 'probably really drunk' and said she had passed out shortly after returning home. Officers discovered 15 empty alcohol cans in the home, including the four she had purchased hours before RK's death. Despite the gravity of the charges, Spencer's partner Kelson continues to support her and recently took to Facebook to request legal assistance, calling the situation a tragic accident. Spencer remains behind bars on a $500,000 bond and is due in court for a preliminary hearing on August 5.

Oklahoma City Mother Charged with Murder After Falling Asleep with Newborn Twins While 'Drunk,' Killing Son
The mother of an infant boy who was found unresponsive at an Oklahoma City home is now being charged over the child's death. Brennan Spencer, 33, was arrested by officers with the Oklahoma City Police Department last week and charged with second-degree murder following the 2024 death of her son. Spencer Fell Asleep After Drinking White Claw Alcoholic Seltzers According to a copy of the arrest affidavit, Spencer fell asleep with her newborn twins — identified as RK and LK — after a night of drinking. The affidavit noted that Spencer woke up a few hours later with LK in her arms, and RK dead at her feet. Spencer and the father of the twins, James Kelson, both spoke with police when they arrived at the home on Nov. 2. Kelson told the responding officers that he and Spencer had spent the night splitting a 12-pack of White Claw alcoholic seltzers before he went to bed shortly after midnight. Spencer and the twins went to bed at the same time, said Kelson, who told the officers that the newborns were "laid in the bassinets at the foot of their bed." At 6:45 a.m., Kelson awoke to find that Spencer and the children were no longer in the bedroom, according to the affidavit. He told officers that he went to the living room to check on them, at which time he found Spencer laying on the couch holding their daughter while their son lay unresponsive at her feet. Spencer told police that Kelson had directed her to get them more White Claw around midnight, at which point she went to a nearby 7-Eleven but passed out on the couch upon arriving home. Then, after being read her Miranda rights, Spencer allegedly told police she had been "probably really drunk" when she went to sleep. "I mean, I was drunk enough to just need to pass out," she allegedly told officers. Bermel wrote in the affidavit that he obtained video from the store, which showed Spencer arriving at 1:23 a.m. and leaving four minutes later with four "tall boy" cans of White Claw. Medical Examiner Confirmed Cause of Child's Death as 'Asphyxia Due to an Unsafe Sleep Environment' The medical examiner later determined RK's probable cause of death to be "asphyxia due to an unsafe sleep environment," according to the affidavit. The affidavit also includes the findings of Deputy Chief Child Abuse Examiner Ryan Brown, who said in a maltreatment report that RK "was a victim of neglect" due to Spencer's "level of intoxication" and her altered "awareness levels." He also said that there would have been a lower risk of being in an unsafe sleep environment and a higher probability of RK still being alive if he had been left in the bassinet that night, according to the affidavit. Spencer — who has yet to enter a plea — remains in custody after her bail was set at $500,000. She will be in court on Aug. 5 for a preliminary hearing.
