'Amaran' continues to dominate the box office
Produced by Kamal Haasan, R Mahendran, and Vivek Krishnani under Raaj Kamal Films International and Sony Pictures Films India banners, Amaran continues to do well in theaters even after four weeks. The film is based on the life of Ashok Chakra awardee Major Mukund Varadarajan. Recently, Sivakarthikeyan was honored by the Officers Training Academy (OTA) in Chennai for his portrayal of Major Varadarajan.

Speaking at the event at OTA, Sivakarthikeyan thanked everyone for the recognition. He said, "It was an honor to portray Major Mukund's life, and I feel deeply connected to his story. This recognition means a lot to me, and it highlights the importance of telling stories about real-life heroes." The film also stars Bhuvan Arora, Rahul Bose, and Shyam Mohan in key roles.
'Amaran' faced controversy before release
Before its release, Amaran courted controversy when Pallavi visited the National War Memorial and posted pictures on social media. An old interview resurfaced where she had made remarks allegedly comparing the Indian Army to Indian terrorists, triggering widespread criticism. Although her comments were taken out of context, they led to calls for a boycott of the 32-year-old actor.
