As the stakes rise, the whistleblower races against time to expose what could become the most shocking revelation in human history: the ultimate disclosure of alien existence to the world.

He said, “What surprised me the most about Steven Spielberg was how playful he is. He is a technical magician, of course. He knows what it takes to make a beautiful image, where to put the camera, when and how to move it, and which lens to use. You might think he gets results from being a very controlling director who predetermines how everything is going to look or be staged. What you do not realise until you work with him is how spontaneous and loose he is, how he comes to work each day and lets the set inspire a shot, or how he collaborates with actors in this creative, sometimes improvisational way.”

O’Connor concluded, “He is really all about the actors and working with them to bring a story to life.”

Allu Arjun praises Ram Charan

Allu Arjun described Ram Charan’s performance as “gritty and raw,” adding that the actor’s remarkable physical transformation and effortless dance moves left a deep impression on him. The Game Changer star underwent rigorous training to transform himself into a desi pehalwan for the role.

“He absolutely aced it in every aspect,” wrote Allu Arjun. He further said he was immensely proud of his brother and felt that Charan deserved every bit of the appreciation coming his way. For the uninitiated, the two actors are first cousins and belong to one of Telugu cinema’s most celebrated film families.

‘Love to the leading lady, Janhvi Kapoor’

Ram Charan was not the only member of the cast to receive praise. Allu Arjun singled out Jagapathi Babu for what he called a “striking” performance. He also sent his love to leading lady Janhvi Kapoor, who plays Achiyamma in the period sports-action drama. The actress has been steadily expanding her footprint in Telugu cinema.

The Raaka star also congratulated director Buchi Babu Sana, crediting him for “elevating every member of the cast and placing Ram Charan on a high pedestal.” He extended his appreciation to the film’s technicians and producers for successfully bringing the director’s vision to life.

AR Rahman and R. Rathnavelu served as the film’s music composer and cinematographer, respectively. Released on June 4, Peddi also features actors such as Boman Irani in key supporting roles. The film is expected to soon enter the ₹300-crore worldwide gross club. For Ram Charan, it is being regarded as his most acclaimed solo-hero film since Rangasthalam.

Recent reports suggest that Akansha Ranjan Kapoor and director Sharan Sharma are ready to take the next big step in their relationship. After dating for the past few years, the couple is now set to tie the knot in July 2026. According to reports, the wedding is scheduled to take place in Mumbai on July 11 with a wedding reception expected to follow a day later on July 12. A source informed the media, “Akansha and Sharan are getting married on July 11, followed by a wedding reception on July 12. The reception will take place in JW Marriott and will be hosted by the boy’s side.”

It is reported that the couple plans to keep the upcoming celebrations intimate and private, with only selected guests, including close friends and family members, in attendance. The relationship between the two first garnered public attention in 2022 when photos of the pair surfaced online. While they initially remained quiet about the rumours, Akansha officially confirmed their relationship in 2024 during an interaction with ETimes, saying, “Yes, I am in a relationship with Sharan.” She added, “While I have not hidden the fact that I am dating him, I don’t like to discuss my personal life too much.”

Akansha has previously shared how she draws inspiration from the relationship between her sister, Anushka Ranjan, and Aditya Seal. Speaking to India Today, she had mentioned, “I believe that true love does exist. I get inspired in the sense that I want a person who treats me the way Adi treats Didi. I want to be how didi is with Adi in a relationship. We are both spoiled by our parents in a good way. But she has evolved so much as a person and partner for him. She has become more responsible and selfless.”

On the work front, Akansha is known for her performances in projects like Guilty and Monica, O My Darling. She will next be seen opposite Amol Parashar in Gram Chikitsalay, a series that has been renewed for a second season. Sharan Sharma made his directorial debut with Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl and later directed Mr & Mrs Mahi. Before his directorial career, he worked as an assistant director on Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and served as a creative director on Ae Dil Hai Mushkil under Dharma Productions, where he remains associated with upcoming projects.
