Directed by Adhik Ravichandran, Good Bad Ugly—starring Ajith Kumar—emerged as a superhit at the box office. The Tamil action thriller earned special praise for its screenplay, performances, music, and more. It recently debuted on Netflix for its digital run. Filmmaker Kasthuri Raja confirms legal action against Good Bad Ugly makers Months after its release, Dhanush’s father and filmmaker Kasthuri Raja has confirmed that he is taking legal action against the makers of Good Bad Ugly. Speaking at a recent event, he criticized new-generation filmmakers for relying heavily on nostalgia by using old music tracks in new films—often without seeking permission from the original creators. Speaking during the promotional spree for his film Saamakoodangi in Salem, Kasthuri Raja said, “Unlike when stalwarts like Ilaiyaraaja and Deva created timeless music, today’s creators seem to rely on nostalgia rather than innovation. It’s not an issue to use old tracks, but one must seek permission from the original creators. Unfortunately, no one bothers to ask these days.” Why will Kasthuri Raja take legal action on GBU?

Box Office: Mythri Movie Makers shows Indian Industry how to simultaneously release two biggies on same day with Jaat and Good Bad Ugly

When most production houses tiptoe around crowded release dates, Mythri Movie Makers ran headfirst into the box office with not one but two major films. On April 10, while the rest of the industry played it safe, this audacious Telugu production banner rolled out the red carpet for both the biggies Jaat and Good Bad Ugly and what followed was nothing short of a masterclass in box office confidence. Mythri, the brains behind hits like Pushpa and Uppena, isn’t new to high-stakes cinema. But this move? It raised eyebrows and expectations alike. Jaat, a Hindi-language masala actioner starring Sunny Deol, Sayami Kher, Randeep Hooda, Urvashi Rautela, Regina Cassandra and others, directed by Gopichand Malineni, brought raw rural intensity with a stranger-vs-ganglord plot. Meanwhile, Good Bad Ugly, an action-comedy helmed by Adhik Ravichandran, saw Ajith Kumar return to his mass-hero roots as a reformed gangster forced to take up arms again in a film that has the likes of Trisha, Arjun Das, and Priya Prakash Varrier co-starring with him.   The takeaway? Good Bad Ugly clearly edges …

Priya Prakash Varrier, a.k.a. the viral wink girl, has a very special role in Ajith Kumar’s recent release, Good Bad Ugly. While her screen presence was undoubtedly eye-catching, her recreated version of the classic dance number, Thottu Thottu Pesum Sultana, in the movie has grabbed attention. For those unaware, the original version of the track featured actress Simran Bagga, who also made a spectacular cameo in GBU. And now, as Priya recreated the song in the film, she managed to keep its vibe intact to the original and even dressed up in a similar manner. Speaking with India Today about the matter, Priya recalled that she had heard the original song before starting off to recreate it for the film. However, her choreographer had suggested she should watch it clearly before starting off so that she could replicate the exact vibe of the movie. Priya said, “I have heard the song, but I had not watched the video until then. But before the shooting, Azhar master had asked me to watch the video.” The young …
