A recent behind-the-scenes video from Vishnu Manchu's 'Kannappa' went viral, where his father, actor Mohan Babu , talked about buying 7,000 acres in New Zealand for his son Vishnu . The video, shared by actor Brahmaji , grabbed attention due to Mohan's remark. Amid the ongoing social media reactions and misinterpretations, Brahmaji himself cleared the air. Check out the post here: Brahmaji took to his X (formerly Twitter) handle and wrote, 'Guys, come on! That video I posted with Mr Mohan Babu garu and Vishnu Manchu was pure fun, just a bunch of us having a good laugh like we always do. (sic),' he wrote. Brahmaji confirms the video was made for fun He further added, 'We joked about buying 7,000 acres in New Zealand, even owning the mountains! Vishnu played along, Mohan Babu garu was in full comic form, and I was pulling their leg as usual.' The actor made it clear that the video was only made for fun. Watch the viral video here: He concluded, 'But suddenly people have started believing it's real?! 😳 Arrey bhai… if buying 7,000 acres in New Zealand was that easy, I'd be shooting there every weekend! Let me clear it up before the jokes turn into news headlines. Nobody bought any land. It was all in jest. New Zealand doesn't even allow that kind of land ownership for non-citizens. Please don't take humour so seriously, especially when Kannappa is around the corner and we're all in high spirits! Now smile, laugh a little, and don't turn comedy into something else 😁 #KannappaOnJune27.

‘Sitaare Zameen Par' review: Where Aamir Khan's film fails to hit the sweet spot
An Aamir Khan film is a bit of an anomaly in the current landscape of Hindi cinema. Here's an actor whose superstar credentials have come not courtesy testosterone-heavy action spectacles but by championing narratives that espouse for a better society and celebrate the inherent goodness of intent, though, doesn't always translate into an equally good film. Sitaare Zameen Par is that feel-good film that tries so hard to be likeable that it begins to feel cloying and underwhelming. Few jokes fly, many forced. But by the end, it's pushing for has played this script before, and it's worked wonders at the box-office. There's the Rajkumar Hirani-directed 3 Idiots and PK and the Khan banner's Taare Zameen Par (TZP) and Secret Superstar. Sitaare Zameen Par is cut from the same social-moral fabric. It has even been billed as a spiritual sequel to TZP, only that it feels laborious in Zameen Par, directed by R.S. Prasanna, runs like a two-hour-plus value education class in what makes an inclusive society. That's largely to do with its single-minded focus on the coming of age of its manchild (Aamir Khan), one who refers to neuro divergent or intellectually disabled individuals as 'paagal' and 'mental'. One of his many problematic remarks: 'Team toh normal-on ki hoti hai' (Only normal people make up a team).advertisement Thus begins a lecture in which the hero gets schooled on the lives and ways of individuals with autism and Down's syndrome, and how they are not to be seen as abnormal but normal beings who need to be treated with dignity and character of basketball coach Gulshan Arora learns so the hard and humorous way as he has to train 10 adults as a form of punishment. They all come with their own quirks. One is afraid of water and refuses to bathe; one loves to shoot with his back to the basketball hoop; one can get a bit physical in defence; one simply quits and so on and so doesn't help that Gulshan comes with a lot of baggage. There's the temper and easily irritable ways; the constant exasperation with the ways of the world suggested with hands in the air and raised eyebrows; the inferiority complex around his frame in a sport that's all about height; the unapologetic ways; daddy issues, which come in the way of him being a father himself; and most significantly, the stubbornness to not see his one of the finer facets of the film to show an anti-hero of sorts who does his best to be unlikeable. Only his protges are wise enough to tease him about it rather than put him down. The cast—Aroush Datta as Satbir, Gopi Krishnan Varma as Guddu, Vedant Sharmaa as Bantu, Naman Misra as Hargovind, Rishi Shahani as Sharmaji, Rishabh Jain as Raju, Ashish Pendse as Sunil Gupta, Samvit Desai as Karim Qureshi, Simran Mangeshkar as Golu Khan and Aayush Bhansali as Lotus—does a commendable job of holding court with also no faulting or denying the earnestness and significance of the cause here. In an age where being amoral or immoral is associated with being cool, here's a film that throws adages laden with subtext. How do you fault lines such as 'Koi bahar ka nahin hota hai, sab apne hote hain' (Nobody's an outsider, we all belong together) or 'Jo baaki logon se alag hote hain unke liye ladna padta hai' (Those different than us are the ones we have to fight for).The underdog spirit of Sitaare Zameen Par carries it through albeit the matches itself come with no real drama or thrill. Wins are too easy and a real conflict is always miles away. 'Har ghar ko thoda bachpan chahiye' (Every household needs a flavour of childhood), says a character at one point, explaining the behavioural ways of the neuro divergent TZP, which addressed the ostracism of those afflicted with dyslexia, Sitaare Zameen Par doesn't look too much into the societal perception and unfriendliness towards the neuro divergent community, barring one fleeting sequence in which 'normal people' treat them with contempt. For a film that drills its messaging, it is strangely not too keen to provoke a strong reaction. Sitaare Zameen Par packs in plenty of takeaways but leaves one thinking—a little less education, a little more story please?Subscribe to India Today Magazine- EndMust Watch

The team is seriously considering a simultaneous added, "There was a request from their side for a simultaneous release. So, we have been discussing the prospect of releasing the films simultaneously, not just the Malayalam and Hindi versions, but the Telugu one as well.
