Vijay-starring “Leo: Bloody Sweet” is the fifth highest grossing Indian film of the year with $72 million. Its director Lokesh Kanagaraj is now in high demand.
The film got off to a winning start when it released in October, debuting in third position at the global box office with a $31.2 million weekend. The action-thriller follows a docile cafe owner (Vijay) who is incited to return to his violent past. The film name checks David Cronenberg’s 2005 film “A History of Violence.”
“It inspired me to write ‘Leo.’ ‘A History of Violence’ left its mark on me and from that this movie was born. ‘Leo’ is my tribute,” Kanagaraj told Variety. “The success of ‘Leo’ means a lot to not just me but the entire team.”
After a few shorts, Kanagaraj made his feature debut with “Maanagaram” (2017) and he also directed “Master,” starring Vijay. “Leo” is the latest instalment in Kanagaraj’s Lcu or Lokesh Cinematic Universe,...

Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj loves a bit of pastiche. Ostensibly remaking influential Western films like “Sorcerer” and “Assault on Precinct 13” with his beloved 2019 hit “Kaithi”, he’s a filmmaker brave enough to acknowledge his influences while also putting a gutsy Indian spin on the material. Now, he’s back with “Leo”, an action thriller that states in an opening quote from Kanagaraj himself that this is his tribute to David Cronenberg’s Canadian mystery thriller “A History of Violence”. It’s a bold move to prepare your audience for the twists and turns that might lie ahead by saying the story you’re about to tell will hit many of the same beats as a film they might well have seen, yet Kanagaraj adds so much to Cronenberg’s most stripped-back work that any core story elements are changed completely into something wholly more bombastic.

There has been an upward curve in the popularity of drug thrillers in India. Iconic and popular works like Shah Rukh Khan's “Don” films have touched a nerve at the box office and set a trend for many others to follow; the danger and intrigue of the living fast, dying young subculture being ripe for entertainment. More recently, Ajay Devgn's “Bholaa” hastily remade Lokesh Kanagaraj's “Kaithi”, and the two form a high-octane diptych of one man's vengeance against a vicious industry of corruption and murder. Enter “Yellow Gangs”, Ravindra Parameshwarappa's Kannada-language epic crime thriller that sees a wide-ranging cast of lowlives, thieves and killers wrapped up in a chaotic whirlpool of their own making.

Remakes are a tricky thing to get right. You can wait fifty years or five minutes before adapting someone else's work in the current cinematic climate, and Bollywood wasted no time in bringing Lokesh Kanagaraj's Tamil-language 2019 hit “Kaithi” back to life. The tale of an ex-convict father being thwarted on a mission to visit his daughter has been resurrected by Ajay Devgn, utilising the same plot as both a star vehicle for himself and a chance to flex his growing directorial muscles. And it is a muscular concept to work with; the backbone of both “Kaithi” and “Bholaa” recalls Henri-Georges Clouzot's “The Wages of Fear”, “Con Air” And “Assault on Precinct 13”, all action classics ripe for exploration and experimentation, especially when mixed up with one another. But like the narrative driving force of the Clouzot picture, Devgn has to be careful driving this twisty, treacherous road with...

There's a growing sentiment that modern superhero films value spectacle and brand recognition over genuine cinematic storytelling, but this hasn't stopped international filmmakers from trying to replicate Marvel's franchise success. It only makes sense that the Indian film industry, which has had a chokehold on “spectacle” for the better part of a century, would have the best chance of challenging America's shared universes. Last year saw the release of “Brahmastra: Part One”, which used Hindu mythology to kickstart a planned ‘Astraverse' and “Rrr”, a film that reminded global audiences what a real blockbuster can look like. But perhaps the most exciting Indian ‘franchise' film of 2022 was “Vikram”, the smash hit Tamil action film that belongs in the Lokesh Cinematic Universe, a planned series of connected releases helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. “Vikram” received rave reviews and interest from Western viewers hungry for more of what “Rrr” had to offer,...

Bholaa is an action thriller produced and directed by Ajay Devgn, an adaptation of the 2019 Tamil film ‘Kaithi’. The film is especially made for the audience who crave for hard core actioners. It is also apparent that the writers were more focused on creating action sequences though it had a great plot at hand too! I take this liberty to state that the hero of the film is the action designers for their imaginative choreography.
Plot
Ips Diana Joseph (Tabu) has busted a huge drug consignment and is expecting the worst from the drug lords, who have sprung into action and want the drugs and the officer. As the turn of events had to be, most of the top police officers are spiked during a top officer’s retirement get together. Diana doesn’t drink hence saved.

Bollywood A-lister Ajay Devgn returns to the director’s chair with “Bholaa,” in which he also stars alongside Tabu.
This is Devgn’s fourth directorial effort after “U Me Aur Hum” (2008), “Shivaay” (2016) and “Runway 34” (2022). A remake of 2019 Tamil-language hit “Kaithi,” “Bholaa” follows a prisoner who is going to meet his young daughter after being released from jail. However, he gets embroiled in an epic journey that sees him up against a drug cartel and helping the police.
“We are keeping the basic storyline similar, obviously that’s the reason you make a remake, because we like the storyline. We’ve altered a lot of characters, a little bit of the screenplay, and the characteristics of people. The drama has changed in a way, the emotions have changed – somewhere I would say enhanced, more underlined,” Devgn told Variety.
“Bholaa” will release in 3D, Imax and 4Dx versions worldwide. “It’s a big scale film,...

‘Drishyam 2’, headlined by Ajay Devgn has brought some much-needed cheer to the beleaguered Bollywood box office with a strong opening worldwide weekend gross of Rs 89 crore, reports ‘Variety’. The suspense thriller, which also stars Tabu and Akshaye Khanna, is a sequel to the 2015 hit ‘Drishyam’. The Hindi-language films are remakes of the Malayalam-language ‘Drishyam’ films (2013 and 2021) headlined by Mohanlal. Bollywood has been undergoing a box-office slump in 2022 and ‘Drishyam 2’ serves as a tonic to revive it.

Indian actor Karthik Sivakumar, professionally known as Karthi, is a name that needs no introduction. The actor, who was most recently seen in the Mani Ratnam magnum opus ‘Ponniyin Selvan: Part 1’, considers the director his mentor and was ready to take up any role in the film – even of a horse – because he didn’t want to miss his chance of working with the director, known for films like ‘Roja’, ‘Bombay’, ‘Guru’ and ‘Yuva’ among several others.
Sharing his thoughts on ‘Ponniyin Selvan: Part 1’ and how he was cast, he said: “‘Ponniyan Selvan’, the name itself has a huge identity for the Tamil Diaspora. People have owned this novel (the film is based on the bestselling novel of the same name by author Kalki) and resonated with its characters. The particular book has been relevant for a long time, is still having massive fandom and is a best seller with exhibitions every year.
