Episode 7 of Stranger Things 5 Turns Nightmare For Netflix: Here Is Why

Los Angeles, December "” One of the most loved web shows, Stranger Things, hits an unexpected rough patch for Netflix. Episode 7 of Season 5, the penultimate chapter titled The Bridge, has triggered massive backlash online, turning into what many are calling a nightmare for Netflix just days before the series finale. Soon after release, ST5 witnessed an unprecedented drop in audience ratings across major platforms. It became the lowest-rated season in the show's history, a shocking development for a show that has enjoyed near-universal acclaim over the years. For a penultimate episode, typically designed to peak tension and hype, the response was far below expectations. One of the biggest concerns for Netflix is the clear review bombing that followed Volume 2's release. Thousands of one-star ratings flooded IMDb and other platforms within hours, particularly for episode 7. This sudden surge in negative reactions significantly dragged down the episode's overall score and dominated online discourse. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) A backlash campaign for the show seemed to ignite after the sci-fi horror thriller series' penultimate episode, The Bridge, which features a scene in which Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) comes out as gay to his friends. The lengthy monologue came as the Hawkins gang geared up to face Vecna, the big bad from the Upside Down. The Bridge is now the lowest-rated episode of the entire Stranger Things show on IMDb, with a score of 5.4 out of 10. (It's the only episode below a 7.8, with most ranging between 8.6 and 9.2.) More than 96,000 users reviewed The Bridge episode on IMDb, while fewer than 50,000 people have rated most other episodes this season. The backlash for episode 7 has particularly been in the USA, where over 7K users gave 1-star ratings, followed by Saudi Arabia with 4K users. In India, 1.5K users have reviewed the episode with 1-star ratings. The recent episodes have dragged the season's Rotten Tomatoes score from the 70s down to 56%, a stark decline from the show's previous seasons. (For reference, the Season 4 Popcornmeter sits at 89%, Season 3 at 86%, Season 2 at 90% and Season 1 at 96%.) (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Why This Is a Nightmare for Netflix For Netflix, the situation is particularly damaging because Stranger Things is one of its flagship global brands. The backlash arrived right before the series finale, which might harm the overall viewership on the platform and also its box office prospects (the final episode will have a theatrical release in North America). The show's finale is scheduled to release on New Year's Eve, and as said, will have limited theatrical release. In India, it will drop on Netflix on January 1st at 6 AM. All eyes are now on Episode 8, and how the audience perceives it. Stay tuned...

Akshaye Khanna Exits Ajay Devgn-fronted Drishyam 3; Reason Revealed

Mumbai, December 26 - One of the hugely-awaited films of 2026, Drishyam 3 faced a major setback after Akshaye Khanna, who has been basking in the back-to-back successes, reportedly exited from the film, leaving the makers in a major dilemma to fill one of the major characters of the franchise. Earlier, it was reported that the creative differences between the actor and makers led the former to back out of the Ajay Devgn-led film. Now, according to the report by Bollywood Hungama, the big remuneration demand turned out to be the main reason behind the actor's exit. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) There is no doubt that Akshaye is enjoying one of the best phases of his career after the big success of Chhaava and Dhurandhar, in which he received huge applause for playing the main antagonist roles. Because of the growing popularity, the actor reportedly demanded 21 crores in fees to feature in Drishyam 3, which took the makers aback. "Akshaye was menacing as the villain in Chhaava, while he stole the show, and how, in Dhurandhar. He has become the next big thing. Realising the same, he decided to revise his fees. Accordingly, he asked for Rs. 21 crores from the makers of Drishyam 3", said the report. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The makers reportedly tried to reason with him that if he's paid a bomb, the film would go over-budget. However, the actor was adamant in his demand as he believes that his presence adds major value to any film. Apart from the remuneration, the report also stated that Akshaye demanded to wear a wig in the film, which the makers rejected as he wasn't without a wig in Drishyam 2. Since the demands were made, Akshaye walked out of the suspense crime thriller film. The exit happened on a good note as the makers hope to collaborate with Akshaye in future when they'll be on the same page. Meanwhile, the shoot of Drishyam 3 has already commenced, and it will be hitting the big screens on October 2, 2026. Stay tuned...

MAJOR UPDATE: Akshaye Khanna Exits Drishyam 3. Success of Dhurandhar Triggers Massive Fee Hike and Creative Stand-Off

In a development that has sent shockwaves through the trade circuits, Akshaye Khanna has reportedly exited the highly anticipated franchise sequel, Drishyam 3. While the Drishyam series is known for its intricate plot twists on screen, the drama behind the scenes is currently grabbing all the headlines. According to reports (Source: BH), the primary reason for this departure is a significant disagreement over remuneration and specific creative preferences. Akshaye Khanna, who received immense acclaim and a massive box office boost following his pivotal role in the 2025 blockbuster Dhurandhar, has reportedly seen his market value skyrocket. Coming off the back of Dhurandhar's record-breaking run, the actor reportedly revised his acting fee to ₹21 Crore for Drishyam 3. Trade sources suggest that the makers (Panorama Studios and Viacom18 Studios) felt the revised fee would push the film's production budget beyond a sustainable limit. While Khanna's performance as IG Tarun Ahlawat in Drishyam 2 was a major highlight, the production team reportedly could not meet the new financial requirements. Beyond the financial aspects, the report indicates that additional creative differences surfaced during pre-production. A specific point of contention was Akshaye Khanna's request to wear a wig for his character in the third installment. The directorial and creative team was reportedly uncomfortable with this change, preferring to maintain the continuity of the character's look established in the previous film. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) With Akshaye Khanna's reported exit, the hunt for a new antagonist or a replacement for the investigative officer's role is likely to begin soon. As of now, the confirmed primary cast remains: Ajay Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar,Tabu as Meera Deshmukh,Shriya Saran as Nandini Salgaonkarand Rajat Kapoor as Mahesh Deshmukh Drishyam 2 was a humongous success at the domestic box office, netting over ₹240 Crore in India and providing a much-needed boost to the industry post-pandemic. The chemistry and tension between Ajay Devgn and Akshaye Khanna were cited as a driving force for the sequel's repeat footfalls. The loss of Khanna is a creative blow, but the Drishyam brand remains one of the strongest pullers in Indian cinema. Historically, the franchise relies heavily on its screenplay and the Salgaonkar vs. The System trope. As Drishyam 3 moves through its production phase, the primary focus remains on protecting the film's climactic secrets. While trade buzz originally suggested a possible simultaneous release for both the Hindi and Malayalam versions to mitigate spoilers, current industry indications suggest that the Malayalam original starring Mohanlal is progressing on its own timeline, while Ajay Devgn's Hindi version remains firmly locked for its signature October 2, 2026 theatrical window. With Khanna's exit now looming, all eyes are on whether the producers will look for another powerhouse performer to maintain the high intensity face-off that fans have come to expect.

Kalamkaaval Box Office Collection: Mammootty Roars Back to Form; Worldwide Gross Crosses 80 Crore Mark

Megastar Mammootty has once again proven why he is the master of the box office. After a year of experimental gambles that didn't quite hit the mark, his latest release, Kalamkaaval, has turned into a massive commercial success, breathing new life into the 2025 Malayalam box office. According to the latest trade estimates, Kalamkaaval has officially breached the ₹80 Crore mark worldwide, a feat that seemed challenging for the actor earlier this year. The film's performance in the overseas market, particularly the Gulf region, has been extraordinary. India Net Collection: ₹35.75 Cr India Gross Collection: ₹42.15 Cr Overseas Collection: ₹38.25 Cr Worldwide Total: ₹80.40 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Before Kalamkaaval, Mammootty took significant creative risks with two highly anticipated projects that unfortunately struggled to find an audience at the box office: Bazooka: The high-budget, stylish action thriller was expected to be a game-changer but faced a tepid response due to its complex narrative, failing to cross the ₹20 Cr mark domestically. Dominic and the Ladies Purse: Directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, this quirky investigation thriller was praised for its style but remained a niche offering, underperforming significantly in both single screens and B-centers. Kalamkaaval marks Mammootty's triumphant return to a more rooted and intense avatar .The film's commercial success is largely driven by its strong emotional core, which has resonated deeply with family audiences, ensuring a massive turnout at the domestic box office. Furthermore, the film has displayed extraordinary overseas strength, with an international haul of ₹38.25 Cr"”one of the highest for a Mammootty starrer in recent years"”nearly matching its total Indian gross. Bolstered by exceptionally positive word of mouth since its opening day, the project has maintained a steady grip over the box office, showing remarkable sustainability throughout the weekdays and solidifying its status as a certified Super Hit. Although Kalamkaaval has achieved a stellar worldwide gross of ₹80.4 Cr, the road to the elite ₹100 Crore Club now presents a steep challenge. Its steady momentum faces a significant hurdle this Thursday with the high-voltage arrival of the Pan-India spectacle, Vrusshabha. As this epic is set to seize the lion's share of premium screens across Kerala and the overseas belt, the resulting screen crunch makes bridging the remaining ₹19.6 Cr gap a difficult task. With the festive focus shifting toward the new Christmas release, reaching the century-mark milestone has become a highly demanding prospect for the Megastar starrer

KVN Productions has officially announced that the film, originally titled Jana Nayagan, will be released in the North Indian market as Jan Neta (The People's Leader).
