Aadarsha Kutumbam completed its first weekend at the box office. The Trivikram and Venkatesh combo entertained audiences with a decent blend of comedy and action. The biggie has achieved a new milestone in the USA.

AK47 has officially breached the $1 million gross mark, making it the fifth movie for Venky to achieve this feat. Reportedly, the total collections are close to Rs. 50 crore gross, but the makers haven’t revealed any official numbers.

Meanwhile, the movie sold more than 1 million tickets on BookMyShow, another million in a different way. So far, the performance is decent, and the real test begins from today onwards.

Since Ramayana is arriving this Thursday, the Telugu states will lean towards it, and the screens for AK47 will definitely be reduced. How much more the movie will add to its total in the coming days remains to be seen. Haarika & Hassine Creations produced this family drama, which has Thaman’s music.

Ram Charan’s new film, RC17, directed by Sukumar, has officially been launched. The pre-look poster has led to several rumours that the film will have mythological elements, with Ram Charan possibly appearing as Lord Krishna.

Amid these speculations, another rumour has spread quickly. Many reports claimed that the film could be a remake of the Gujarati blockbuster Laalo (2025). The news caught the attention of many, but there is no truth to these claims.

Sukumar announced RC17 in March 2024 and has been working on the script since then. He had reportedly completed a major portion of the script even before Laalo was released. So, the film has no connection to the remake rumours.

There were also reports that Ram Charan might act in the Telugu remake of Laalo. However, he is not part of the project, and another actor is likely to play the lead role. The rumours linking RC17 to Laalo are baseless.

The shooting is expected to begin soon, and the makers are yet to announce the heroine. Anirudh Ravichander is the music director, while Ratnavelu will handle the cinematography. Mythri Movie Makers is producing the film along with Sukumar Writings and T-Series Films.
