Ram Gopal Varma calls Seedance 2.0 the “asteroid” set to brutally murder film industry’s “arrogance”: “This is actually the liberation of cinema”

-
Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has stirred a fresh debate on the future of cinema, calling AI tool “Seedance 2.0” the “murderer of the film industry” while also describing it as a force of liberation. In a post shared on February 25, 2026, Varma argued that advanced AI filmmaking tools could dismantle the traditional structure of the movie business. Referring to blockbuster filmmaker S. S. Rajamouli, he wrote that directors like Rajamouli command massive budgets due to their proven creative vision and track record. However, he questioned how many equally talented storytellers across India never get access to funding or industry networks. According to Varma, tools like Seedance 2.0 have “kicked the gate down and set it on fire,” enabling creators from small towns to generate large-scale, cinematic visuals using descriptive prompts alone. He described it as “true democracy in motion,” suggesting that AI shifts power away from a select few and into the hands of the masses. Varma went furthe...

BREAKING: Sunny Deol’s Maa Tujhhe Salaam gets a sequel; announcement poster launched

-

The blockbuster success of Gadar 2 has made Sunny Deol one of the hottest actors of Bollywood. The superstar created a frenzy in cinemas with his mass avatar in the Anil Sharma-directorial and made it clear that he still has an enviable fan following. As a result, it seems like producers are now jumping on the bandwagon and announcing sequels to his popular films in the 90s and early 2000s. Yesterday, there were reports that Border 2 is in the offing. Today, the announcement poster of Maa Tujhhe Salaam 2 was launched.

The poster was exclusively tweeted by veteran trade analyst Atul Mohan on his X (formerly Twitter) handle. The poster consists of the film’s title, a tricolour and a massy dialogue. The first part, Maa Tujhhe Salaam (2002), had the famous saying, ‘Doodh maangoge toh kheer denge, Kashmir maangoge toh chheer denge’. Maa Tujhhe Salaam 2’s poster, however, takes this dialogue one step further. It says, ‘Doodh maangoge toh kheer denge, Kashmir maangoge toh Lahore bhi chheen lenge’. Although the star cast is not unveiled, Sunny Deol, who featured in the first part, is expected to be a part of the sequel as well.

"दुध मांगोगे तो खीर देंगे, कश्मीर मांगोगे तो लाहौर भी छीन लेंगे" - Major Pratap Singh As promised, here's the BIG announcement MAA TUJHE SALAAM 2 to go on floors soon. Get ready for another patriotic, action entertainer...coming soon in CINEMAS!#MaaTujheSalaam2… pic.twitter.com/QWHV1ncsFp

Besides Sunny Deol, Maa Tujhhe Salaam also starred Arbaaz Khan and Tabu. It is the story of Major Pratap Singh (Sunny Deol), stationed in Kashmir, who’s fighting the enemies from across the border. Albaksh (Arbaaz Khan), an illiterate man staying on the Indian side, works religiously for Lala Sultan (Tinu Verma). Lala, however, is hand-in-gloves with Pakistan’s Gul Mastan (Sudesh Berry) and they wish to liberate Kashmir from India. Albaksh leaves Lala once he learns of the latter’s anti-national activities. He has to pay a heavy price for it and this is when Major Pratap Singh comes to his rescue. Tabu features in the film as Captain Sonia Khanna.

Maa Tujhhe Salaam was released on January 25, 2022, a day before Republic Day and around six months after Gadar – Ek Prem Katha (2001). As a result, it got the benefit of its blockbuster success, patriotic fervour and decent word of mouth. However, many complained that Sunny Deol was missing in the middle of the film. Coincidentally, Gadar 2 also had the same issue and yet, it’s on its way to breaking records. It now remains to be seen whether Maa Tujhhe Salaam 2 features Sunny Deol from start to finish and which other actors will be cast.

Moreover, the poster of Maa Tujhhe Salaam 2 only mentions the name of producer Mahendra Dhariwal. The director’s name, too, hasn’t been announced yet. Maa Tujhhe Salaam 2 will release in cinemas soon.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
