Did Obito Help Itachi in the Uchiha Massacre? Explained with reasons
Itachi and Obito in Uchiha Massacre
Itachi and his saga from
Naruto Shippuden
were one of those that the fans can never forget. His journey from being a fierce Chunin to becoming a clan killer and a crucial part of
Akatsuki
. And one of the biggest highlights of his career was the
Uchiha Massacre
, where he wiped out his whole clan except his younger brother Sasuke Uchiha.
Now, one of the major questions that arises here is whether
Obito Uchiha
helped Itachi in carrying out the Uchiha massacre or not. And the answer to the question is a little twisted, but straight. Moving ahead, let's have a look at the answer along with what actually happened on the night of the Uchiha massacre.
Uchiha Massacre and the involvement of Obito Uchiha in the same
Obito Uchiha helped Itachi in conducting the Uchiha massacre, but he didn't use his original name at that time. Yes, Obito was hiding his identity under the name of Tobi, and he was looking for reasons to wreak havoc on Konoha.
When Itachi was given the mission to eradicate his clan, he knew that killing the whole clan is not a one man's job.
To carry out the mission, he went to Obito, who was then using the alias of Madara Uchiha. After that, Obito and Itachi massacred the whole clan, leaving only Sasuke behind. To be precise, Obito was not just a helper in the cause but a co-conspirator who took advantage of the situation and messed up Konoha.
After the Uchiha massacre, Itachi went to join Akatsuki, and he became an esteemed member of the terrorist organisation. Coming to Obito Uchiha, he took the alias of Tobi, and then he also went on to join Akatsuki and play a funny role until the death of Pain, after which Obito declared the Fourth Great Ninja War.

Rana Naidu 2 actor Rana Daggubati on online negativity against cinema: Art has to disturb those who are comfortable
Actor Rana Daggubati, who recently returned with season 2 of the web show Rana Naidu, continues to balance his presence between the big screen and the OTT space. No stranger to long-form storytelling - having made his streaming debut in 2023 - Rana says he has developed a measured understanding of cynicism often disguised as opinion - and how to rise above it. 'Art has to disturb the guys who are comfortable and create some kind of satisfaction to those who are disturbed and I believe in that,' says Rana, as he goes on to talk about online trolling. Rana Daggubati takes on trolls and shares with negativity. Sharing how he remains unfazed by online negativity, the 40-year-old says, 'Commenting is everybody's job and social media is a real thing. Everyone feels the need to say something and that necessarily doesn't have to be right or wrong - it's just someone's opinion.' Also Read| Exclusive| Rana Naidu 2 actor Rana Daggubati: Globally, theatres are on a decline Rana, who has worked across the Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi film industries, is well-versed in the different cultural expectations and the varied emotional responses of audiences when a film falls short of those expectations. 'When you take the size of a country like ours, the cultural understanding of people is very different,' Rana says. Recalling his experiences promoting films across India, he adds, 'We travel so many kilometers with a sense of what they (audience) understand, and it can be very different from how we choose to live our own lives.' He acknowledges that in a country as vast and diverse as India, different opinions are inevitable and one should take it in their stride. 'It just gives us a sense of understanding of those people because our jobs will not change. I have been doing this for 15 years and I will continue to do it,' he says before signing off, 'As creators, it's our job to say, 'Here's a story, let's see how many people it reaches.' That's what we need to focus on.'

'I don't ever want to lose Sonam and Dhanush," said Aanand L Rai; Revisiting 'Raanjhanaa' as 'Kuberaa' releases
In 2013, the movie 'Raanjhanaa' was not just a film; it was a cultural mood. Directed by 'Aanand L. Rai,' it introduced ' Dhanush ' to Hindi cinema and gave ' Sonam Kapoor ' one of her most emotionally layered roles. The film has reached its 12-year milestone. Kundan and Zoya The movie was set against the vibrant chaos of Banaras. 'Raanjhanaa' told the story of Kundan, played by Dhanush, a Hindu boy hopelessly in love with Zoya, portrayed by Sonam Kapoor, who was a Muslim girl with dreams far beyond her hometown. Their love was utterly messy, one-sided, and ultimately tragic but at the end felt real. Dhanush's vulnerability and Sonam's quiet strength made the film unforgettable. The film's recent 12-year anniversary was marked by a special screening in Mumbai, attended by Dhanush, director Aanand L. Rai, and other cast members. Though Sonam couldn't attend in person, she joined the celebration online, resharing clips and tributes that overflew social media. Rai's heartfelt words in an old interview with The Indian Express still resonate: 'I don't ever want to lose Sonam and Dhanush'—a statement to the rare chemistry and emotional depth they brought to the screen. From Kundan to Deva in ' Kuberaa ' Now in 2025, Dhanush returns to Hindi cinema with 'Kuberaa,' a socio-political thriller directed by 'Sekhar Kammula.' Released on June 20, the film sees him as Deva, a beggar caught in a chaos of corruption and class war. The film also stars 'Nagarjuna' and 'Rashmika Mandanna,' and is set to stream on OTT in July. While 'Kuberaa' is far from the romantic idealism of 'Raanjhanaa,' both films showcase Dhanush's ability to humanise the marginalised. His journey from Kundan's heartbreak to Deva's rebellion is a dual change in emotional storytelling. Legacy and Continuity What makes 'Raanjhanaa' effective is not just because of its music or visuals; it's the honesty between its leads emotionally. Sonam and Dhanush, though from different worlds of cinema, created a bond that was felt through the screen. As Rai once said, 'They gave me more than performances—they gave me their hearts.' With 'Kuberaa' now capturing headlines and 'Raanjhanaa' still being in the hearts of fans, it's clear that some collaborations are not just cinematic; they are a deep mark on the souls.
