Dhanush’s Captain Miller Is Ready To Release On Ott ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Dhanush’s latest Tamil period action-adventure film, Captain Miller, is ready to arrive on Ott after having a decent stint in the theaters. The film was released at the festival of Pongal and had to face a massive clash. While it clashed with Sivakarthikeyan’s Ayalaan in Tamil Nadu, with both films taking up maximum screens, Telugu films Guntur Kaaram, HanuMan, and Hindi-Tamil bilingual Merry Christmas also released on the same day.
With so many new releases at the box office, it was difficult for everyone to hold the fort strongly, but Dhanush‘s period drama tried hard to be relevant for a month before the film was finally ready to release on Ott.
Captain Miller and Ayalaan also clashed with Vijay Arun’s film Mission, which grabbed the minimum screens in this multi-faced clash. Now, as...

Actor John Kokken spoke about teaming up with Anupam Kher and shared that he was well-prepared before sharing screen space with him in ‘The Freelancer:The Conclusion’. John Kokken, who plays the role of Raghuvendra Setu, said: “One of the things that I have learned in my career as an actor is to do my homework well and prepare the lines.
“I rehearse the lines a couple of times in advance and I memorise the entire scene. Also, considering the fact that I was going to act with Anupam Kher Sir, I had better be prepared. On the day of the shoot, before the take, Anupam Kher Sir and I rehearsed the lines probably at least 10 times in Neeraj Pandey Sir’s presence.”
He added: “Anupam Kher Sir is a phenomenal actor and an amazing co-star to work with, always encouraging his co-actors to bring the best performance out of them.

Actor Mohit Raina had support from the Moroccan army while shooting for the series ‘The Freelancer: The Conclusion’. The action in the show looks real because they actually used real arms and ammunition of the Moroccan army in the series
Talking about the same, Mohit said: “We had support from the Moroccan army as well, they used to supply arms and ammunition to us for the shoot, but only after submitting our passports. Working with an international crew is pretty much like an amalgamation of cultures.”
He added: “There was a little bit of a drawback in terms of communication because they mainly speak French. The cast too brought together people from different nations too.”
The series is based on the book ‘A Ticket to Syria’ by Shirish Thorat, directed by Bhav Dhulia, produced by Friday Storytellers, created by showrunner Neeraj Pandey, directed by Bhav Dhulia and produced by Shital Bhatia.

Tamil Superstar Dhanush is exuding devil mode in the new ‘Captain Miller’ song ‘Killer Killer’. An anthemic, marching style song, the song reeks of pure hardcore attitude and is no-holds-barred song of edge.
Sung by the actor himself, the majority of the song is spoken word with over half of it being sung in English and later mixing it in Tamil before switching to singing. While most of the song is hushed speaking, there is a whole roaring rise as Dhanush’s ‘killer’ avatar slowly emerges and takes the stage.
Indeed, the actor really seems to have taken to his character as he indeed renders some of his vocals with great style and brilliance, giving a lot of aggression in his singing, which is backed by a whole marching band behind him.

Model-turned-actor Navneet Malik has opened up on what he dislikes about the showbiz, saying there should be a system where artistes with potential can reach out to the casting directors, and vice-versa. Navneet will be soon seen playing the negative lead in the thriller series ‘The Freelancer’.
The actor who is known for his role in ‘Heropanti 2’, said: “What I like about this industry right now is people are not bounding any actor into certain roles, whether it’s positive or negative. They accept them in different roles and characters. That’s the good part of this industry.”
He further shared: “I dislike that whatever roles that are coming in the industry are not reaching to the potential people, like there are thousands of deserving and experienced people.”

New Delhi, Aug 20 (Ians) Actor Navneet Malik, who will be seen playing the negative lead in riveting thriller series ‘The Freelancer’, has opened up about the challenges of Bollywood, and how he encountered rejections on his path to success.
Navneet has faced his fair share of setbacks despite his talent and successful appearances in projects like ‘Heropanti 2’, ‘Love Hostel,’ and the song ‘Jaaniya’ with over five million views.
Facing the tough reality of Bollywood, and reflecting on his journey, Navneet revealed: “I left my stable life as a civil engineer and the comfort of my home to chase a dream in Mumbai. Every day, I faced auditions with hope and uncertainty. My bags weren’t just filled with clothes; they carried my dreams and determination.

While each rejection left its mark, Navneet stayed resilient.

Veteran actor Anupam Kher, who is gearing up for his upcoming series ‘The Freelancer’, has called the producer of the show Neeraj Pandey a ‘bad habit’. The two go a long way back and share a great camaraderie. Anupam worked in Neeraj’s directorial debut ‘A Wednesday’ and since then they have developed a great equation as collaborators so much so that Anupam wants to be in Neerja’s all productions and when it couldn’t be materialised, he finds it very hard to. Hence, the usage of the term ‘bad habit’.
“I share a double equation with Neeraj. One as a person, he is a great friend and secondly he is a director who I am very possessive about. Whenever I am not a part of his work I get very jealous. On a lighter note, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that Neeraj is definitely a bad habit,...

Speaking about his experience of working with Neeraj, Bhav said: “This is our second collaboration and I was offered to direct ‘The Freelancer’ by Neeraj Sir, as soon as I finished the shooting schedule of the previous show I was completely taken aback by the unique story and the grandeur of the series.”
“It was an absolutely new world for me and the best chance to break through the genre I had worked on earlier.
