Review and Analysis of “Hanu Man”: Intelligent, Self-Aware and, Ambitious Writing Compensates For What CGI Lacks in This Origin Story

The film stars Teja Sajja, Vinay Rai, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Amritha Aiyar in pivotal roles. A superhero film becomes a success if it has visually stunning super set pieces. However, it becomes a super success if these super set pieces are complemented by other moments of the screenplay. Prasanth Varma’s “Hanu Man” is an anti-thesis of this theory. Here, the film is a success because of the…

Varalaxmi Sarathkumar's Husband Nicholai Sachdev and Daughter Take Her Name: A Testament to Love and Legacy

Tamil star Varalaxmi Sarathkumar recently tied the knot with entrepreneur Nicholai Sachdev in a beautiful ceremony in Thailand on July 3. The joyous occasion saw Varalaxmi sharing numerous wedding photos on social media, capturing the hearts of fans. In an inspiring move, Nicholai has announced that he and his 15-year-old daughter, Kasha, will be adopting Varalaxmi's name.

At a press conference in Chennai, Nicholai revealed that Varalaxmi had initially wanted to add "Sachdev" to her name post-marriage. However, he had a different idea. "She said that she wants to change her name after marriage. Of course, she’d never lose Sarathkumar in the middle, but she wanted to add Sachdev to her name. But, I will not have that," Nicholai stated firmly.

Instead, Nicholai decided to honor Varalaxmi and her family's legacy by taking her name. He explained, “She will always remain and retain her name as Varalaxmi Sarathkumar. I will be taking her name. I will be known as Nicholai Varalaxmi Sarathkumar Sachdev. And so will my daughter. So Sarathkumar and my wife Varalaxmi’s legacy will live on forever. That’s what I am going to do for my wife.”

Varalaxmi, the eldest daughter of veteran Tamil actor Sarathkumar and his first wife Chaya, faced some criticism for her relationship with Nicholai, who is divorced. Known for her forthright nature, Varalaxmi dismissed these negative comments, emphasizing the strength of their relationship. She told Galatta Tamil, “Even my father married twice; there’s nothing wrong with it as long as he’s happy. I’ve seen how people talk about Nick; he’s handsome in my eyes. I don’t care about people who make negative comments about our relationship. Why should I answer to anyone? From the very beginning, I have avoided doing that.”

Reflecting on her relationship with Nicholai, Varalaxmi shared that he possesses all the qualities she sought in a partner. "He makes me laugh, supports my career, and always puts me first. He’s extremely loving, pampering, and fiercely protective of me and his family. We share a love for food; he even completes my sentences. We met 14 years ago, and instantly, there was something, but we didn’t date then. We stayed in touch as friends, and it’s only recently that love blossomed,” she said.

Nicholai's gesture of taking Varalaxmi's name is a beautiful testament to their love and commitment, ensuring that their legacies are intertwined forever.

Embracing Love: Varalaxmi Sarathkumar's Stand Against Cyberbullying

The year 2024 has unfolded as a remarkable chapter for Tamil actor Varalaxmi Sarathkumar. Amidst the triumph of her blockbuster release, Hanu-Man, her personal life witnessed a significant milestone with her engagement to Mumbai-based gallerist Nicholai Sachdev in March. However, amidst the celebration of their love, they’ve also faced a barrage of cyberbullying, primarily targeting Nicholai’s appearance and past marriage.

Varalaxmi, renowned for her fearless demeanor, recently addressed these negative comments head-on, affirming that they hold no power over their relationship. In a candid interview with Galatta Tamil, as reported by India Today, she dismissed the critics with a poignant declaration, “Even my father married twice; there’s nothing wrong with it as long as he’s happy. I’ve seen how people talk about Nick; he’s handsome in my eyes. I don’t care about people who make negative comments about our relationship. Why should I answer to anyone? From the very beginning, I have avoided doing that.”

The actor, daughter of veteran Tamil actor Sarathkumar and his first wife Chaya, further emphasized the significance of maintaining positivity even amidst separation. Reflecting on Nicholai’s former marriage, she remarked, “If two people are unable to remain together, it’s better they part ways. Why keep being unhappy? Though you guys couldn’t remain together, you can still maintain a cordial relationship. I have met his (Nicholai) ex-wife; she is an amazing person. His daughter is also a beautiful person.”

Describing Nicholai as the embodiment of her ideal partner, Varalaxmi illuminated their bond with warmth and sincerity. “He makes me laugh, supports my career, and always puts me first. He’s extremely loving, pampering, and fiercely protective of me and his family. We share a love for food; he even completes my sentences. We met 14 years ago, and instantly, there was something, but we didn’t date then. We stayed in touch as friends, and it’s only recently that love blossomed.”

In a world consumed by the frenzy of social media, Varalaxmi revealed Nicholai’s preference for privacy, devoid of any digital footprint. This intentional detachment from the virtual realm speaks volumes about their focus on genuine connection over superficial validation.

As Varalaxmi prepares for the release of the action thriller Raayan, helmed by Dhanush, she stands as a beacon of resilience against cyberbullying, championing love, acceptance, and the unwavering pursuit of happiness.

Kannappa Movie Review

Kannappa Movie Review: Mythological Epic Recreates Legendary Devotion

Releasing on June 27, 2025, Kannappa is a pan‑Indian mythological film directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh and produced by Mohan Babu and Vishnu Manchu. The film dramatizes the tale of Kannappa Nayannar, a tribal hunter whose unwavering faith in Lord Shiva becomes legendary.

Cast and Crew of Kannappa

Director: Mukesh Kumar Singh

Producer: Mohan Babu, Vishnu Manchu

Writer: Vishnu Manchu, Paruchuri Gopala Krishna, Eshwar Reddy, G. Nageswara Reddy, Thota Prasad

Cinematography: Sheldon Chau

Music: Stephen Devassy, Mani Sharma

Main Cast:

Vishnu Manchu as Kannappa (Thinnadu)

Prabhas as Rudra/Nandi

Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva (his Telugu debut)

Mohanlal as Kirāta

Kajal Aggarwal as Goddess Parvati

Mohan Babu, R. Sarathkumar, Madhoo, Brahmanandam (comic role), Preity Mukhundhan, and others fill key roles.

Kannappa Movie Review: Plot Overview

Kannappa retells the ancient tale of Thinnadu, a tribal hunter whose raw devotion to Lord Shiva leads him to perform the ultimate sacrifice — plucking out his own eyes to adorn the Shiva Linga. The film traces his spiritual journey from skepticism to divine grace, set against sweeping landscapes and grand visuals.

Visuals & Technical Craftsmanship

Shot primarily in New Zealand with an 800‑member crew, the film’s visuals draw comparisons to The Lord of the Rings. Cinematographer Sheldon Chau captures expansive locales and mythic grandeur, while Stephen Devassy and Mani Sharma provide an evocative score. Costumes and VFX, enhanced by a VFX‑related delay, aim to match the film’s epic scale.

Performances & Casting Highlights

Vishnu Manchu shoulders the central role with sincere presence, marking his most ambitious performance to date.

Akshay Kumar, in his Telugu debut, looks ethereal as Lord Shiva. Reception is mixed; many viewers found his portrayal visually striking but questioned the AI‑dubbing quality.

Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Kajal Aggarwal add star-wattage in pivotal divine roles, further amplifying the film’s scale.

Critic Response & Viewer Buzz

Early reactions reflect polarized opinions:

Praise centers on the ambitious visuals, star-studded cast, and devotional storytelling.

Critique arises over questionable dubbing, uneven costume authenticity, and trailer elements that drew online ridicule.

Legal scrutiny and petitions claim some portrayals may offend traditional communities.

Kannappa Movie Review: Final Verdict

Kannappa aims high with its epic storytelling and pan‑India scale. Its strengths lie in breathtaking cinematography, a star‑powered cast, and a powerful mythological narrative of selfless devotion. But it risks being derailed by inconsistent dubbing, occasional awkward design choices, and a tone that may lean overly ornate for some audiences.

For fans of grand mythological epics, Kannappa may offer a mesmerizing cinematic experience. Just be prepared to brace for both awe-inspiring moments and jarring technical hiccups.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐☆ (3/5)
