BREAKING: Max Marketing to present Zee Studios’ Marathi blockbuster Dasavatar in Malayalam, a first in Indian Cinema

-
In a groundbreaking move that redefines regional film exchange in India, Max Marketing has made cinematic history. The company will be presenting Zee Studios’ recent Marathi blockbuster Dasavatar for the first time ever in Malayalam cinemas — without dubbing the film into any major national language like Hindi or English. This marks a historic first in Indian cinema — where a regional film will be released directly in another regional language market, not as a Hindi or pan-India version, but as a culturally rooted cinematic experience intended for another linguistic audience. Directed by Subodh Khanolkar and produced by Ocean Film Company and Ocean Art House, Dasavatar will hit Malayalam cinema screens on November 21, 2025. This unprecedented initiative bridges India’s vibrant regional film industries in a way never attempted before. For decades, cross-regional film releases have almost always passed through a national filter — either dubbed in Hindi or adapted for pan-India audienc...

In Karel Reisz’s film of Alan Sillitoe’s Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1960), a defining work of kitchen-sink drama, she was a vision of self-possession as Doreen (“Rotten name, ain’t it?”), who works in a Nottingham hairnet factory, lives with her mother and catches the eye of the discontented lathe operator Arthur Seaton, played by Albert Finney.

The enigma of Rose Dugdale: what drove a former debutante to become Britain and Ireland’s most wanted terrorist?

-
The case of the English heiress who became an IRA bomber and art thief, even burgling her own family estate, was one of the most confounding stories of the late 20th century. Now it’s dramatised in a new film In 1958, 17-year-old Rose Dugdale was one of 1,400 young women who curtseyed before Queen Elizabeth II in the most prestigious event of the summer’s debutante season. It was the last time that the well-bred daughters of the most aristocratic and affluent families in the country would be presented to the monarch in a ritual that dated back 200 years. Princess Margaret, with characteristic hauteur, would later say: “We had to put a stop to it. Every tart in London was getting in.” For the fiercely independent Dugdale, being presented to the queen was a means to an end. She had agreed on the condition that her parents allowed her to attend the all-women St Anne’s College, Oxford, to study philosophy, politics and economics. Sixty years later she would recall the debutante season as...
