Dashavatar: Marathi blockbuster starring Dilip Prabhavalkar to create history with grand Malayalam release on Dec 12

Bridging the gap between regional industries, the makers of the Marathi blockbuster Dashavatar have officially announced the film's release in Malayalam. The film, which has already garnered significant praise in its original language, is slated to hit theaters across Kerala on December 12, 2025. According to the official announcement, this release marks a significant milestone in Indian cinema history. The film has been dubbed, marketed, and presented in Malayalam by MaxMarketing. This creates a new precedent, as it is billed as the first time a Marathi film has been aggressively marketed and distributed in the Malayalam market with such a focused strategy. Following the encouraging response to the Malayalam teaser and songs, the full theatrical trailer has now been unveiled to the Kerala audience. Helmed by director Subodh Khanolkar, Dashavatar is produced under the banners of Ocean Film Company and Ocean Art House. The film is headlined by the legendary Dilip Prabhavalkar, a veteran figure in Indian cinema celebrated for his versatility in iconic movies like Lage Raho Munna Bhai. The release is being steered by industry heavyweights including Umesh Kumar Bansal, Bavesh Janavlekar, Girish Johar, and Varun Gupta. This collaboration between Zee Studios and MaxMarketing suggests a strong push to make regional storytelling accessible to a Pan-India audience, moving beyond the usual South-to-North dubbing trend to a West-to-South exchange. With the promotional campaign kicking into high gear, all eyes are on December 12 to see how the Kerala audience welcomes this historic cross-cultural cinematic venture.

From Akshay Kumar To Saif Ali Khan, Times When Top Bollywood Heroes Go Bad On Screen

Be it Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Saif Ali Khan Priyanka Chopra, or anyone else, the audience has loved their heroes turn bad in films. On their part, Bollywood biggies have loved exploring the dark side on the screen, too in fact, according to trade analyst Girish Johar, it becomes a deadly combination when heroes play negative roles in the movies as they carry their own fan-following and it thrills their fans. ## Not just for an entertainment level, but for business-wise too, such casting makes an impact, with two heroes in the film, at the two ends of the good and evil spectrum. However, according to Johar who told IANS, "this does not mean that every hero can be a villain? At the end of the day, it's an actor who is portraying a particular character. So it all depends on the character, and how the actor brings it alive on the screen". ## Here is the list of the Top Bollywood stars who showed their villainous side on screen in recent years ## Akshay Kumar ## Akshay Kumar has made a big impact on the audience through his heroic roles. However, there have been times when he presented his villainous side which too was loved by his fans. His character Vikram in "Ajnabee" (2001) created obstacles in the lives of Raj (Bobby Deol) and Priya (Kareena Kapoor). Then in 2018, he got back to being a villain on-screen in the Rajinikanth-starrer "2.0". Akshay has mostly featured in films with patriotic themes or stories with a social cause in recent times, and as the bird-lover Pakshi Rajan in "2.0" he was a villain with a cause.## Aamir Khan ## Known as Mr. Prefectnist, Aamir Khan has portrayed memorable roles as a hero in movies like Raja Hindustani, Sarfarosh, Lagaan, 3 Idiots, PK, and many more. It was his 2006 release, Fanaa in which he played a negative role for the first time in which he played the role of a Kashmiri insurgent, Rehaan Qadri. Later in Dhoom 3, Aamir again played a lead antagonist in a dual role as Sahir and Samar Iqbal Khan. ## Ranveer Singh ## One of the most lively and happening actors in Bollywood, Ranveer Singh stole the show for his character of menacing Alauddin Khilji in Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial "Padmaavat", which released in 2018. Ranveer has acted as a romantic hero, a courageous cop, and a historical warrior on his way to superstardom but he made Bhansali's Khilji an extremely laudable act with his menacing screen presence. ## Saif Ali Khan ## Back in 2006, he won the audience and critics' love with his portrayal of the vile Langda Tyagi in "Omkara". Last year, he impressed in "Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior" portraying Aurangzeb's royal guard Udaybhan Singh Rathore who was pitted against Ajay Devgn's Tanhaji Malusare. And now, he will back as a villain in Om Raut's directorial magnum opus "Adipurush", starring Telugu star Prabhas. Saif has described the project as "phenomenal" adding that he looks forward "to clashing swords with the mighty Prabhas and to play a role that is electrifying and demonic". ## Sanjay Dutt ## One of the finest actors, Sanjay Dutt has played negative roles with almost perfection. He scored as the menacing Kancha in "Agneepath" (2012) and is back to evil ways this year with "KGF Chapter 2". After the teaser release, Dutt's fans are excited to see him as the antagonist Adheera in the film. He has played negative roles in "Panipat" and "Khalnayak", too, in the past. He has said Adheera is "one of the craziest characters I have played so far", describing the character as "fearless, powerful and ruthless". ## John Abraham ## There are unconfirmed reports on John playing the role of the villain in the upcoming film "Salaar", which also stars Prabhas. While he is yet to comment on it, fans would recall that John made a smashing antihero in "Dhoom" (2004) and "Race 2" (2013). ## Vicky Kaushal ## After impressing the audience with performances in "Masaan", "Sanju" and "Uri: The Surgical Strike", Vicky Kaushal will be seen as Aurangzeb in Karan Johar's upcoming multistarrer "Takht". The historical drama revolves around Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and his brother Dara Shikoh, and their fight for the throne.## Stay tuned...

COVID-19: Epidemic to hit Delhi box office hard

New Delhi, March 12 (IANS) Irrfan Khan won't be arriving at the big screens in Delhi with 'Angrezi Medium', neither will Akshay Kumar's latest biggie 'Sooryavanshi'. 'Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar' featuring Parineeti Chopra and Arjun Kapoor will be affected, too. The impact of restrictions to stem the spread of the coronavirus in the Capital will be felt at the box office as Delhi cinemas will be shut till March 31.## With the Delhi government officially announcing all cinema halls, schools, colleges in Delhi will be shut until March 31 due to the outbreak of coronavirus, the film trade in the city is bound to feel the impact. After the postponement of "Sooryavanshi", the massive shuffle of release dates is expected.## "It is going to put a full stop to the forthcoming releases. Delhi is a huge market. If you look at the business of two releases -- 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' and 'Thappad', they were fantastic in Delhi and NCR. Even otherwise, Delhi-NCR is a huge market," trade analyst Taran Adarsh told IANS.## "The losses will be worth crores. Why would you even want to release when you know that the film will not be released in Delhi? Delhi is a big territory. Producers will now pay attention and think about changing release dates," he added.## The new announcement will ruin box office takings of Irrfan's "Angrezi Medium" (scheduled for March 13) and Parineeti Chopra-Arjun Kapoor's "Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar" (March 20).## "The producers will strongly think to delay the release. I think they will have to defer releases," trade expert Girish Johar told IANS.## According to Johar, shutting down of theatres in Delhi will have a "huge impact to potential revenue".## "Delhi is a very important market. It is one of the topmost cities among revenue earners for Bollywood films across the country. In some cases, Delhi is the number one city among all regions, and sometimes Mumbai is the number one city. Delhi is one of the topmost crucial markets. If Delhi is shutting down theatres, it will have a huge impact on Bollywood's potential revenue," Johar told IANS.## "We also need to keep in mind that overseas, too, we are losing a major chunk right now, with the US under a lockdown, parts of Europe and Australia also under lockdown. All these are big potential markets. Now, Delhi cinemas will also be closed. It will be a big loss," he added.## The fate of the Ranveer Singh-starrer "83" (April 10) is also undecided. Other big films slated in the first quarter include the Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer "Gulabo Sitabo", Varun Dhawan-Sara Ali Khan's "Coolie No.1", Salman Khan's action drama "Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai", Akshay Kumar's "Laxmmi Bomb", "Bunty Aur Babli 2" and Kangana Ranaut's "Thalaivi".## "Haathi Mere Saathi", "Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl", "Roohi Afzana", "Ludo" and "Chehre" are also lined up in the first half.## Talking about the impact, Raj Kumar Mehrotra, general manager at Delite Cinema, told IANS: "Around 10 to 12 films are doing good business in Delhi-NCR right now. Shutting down the halls will affect the business of all these films. By a rough estimate, if halls are asked to shut down till the end of the month, it could even pile up a cumulative loss of around Rs 100 crore in this territory"## Sanjay Suri, who was set to bring the Oscar-nominated drama "Les Miserables" to India on March 13, hopes the situation improves soon.## "We shall wait for the situation to improve and see if a phase-wise release is possible or not when the shutdown is lifted. Safety is most important," Sanjay said in a statement.## On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged Indians not to panic, but remain vigilant to keep the coronavirus outbreak at bay. "Say No to Panic, Say Yes to Precautions," the Prime Minister tweeted.## Of the 73 coronavirus cases in India, 17 are foreigners.## For more and latest news about Box Office, stay tuned with us.
