great film , and i love that these films are using just enough humour to keep newly converted comic book film fans interested ( ie me ) .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 has now officially passed the original film at the box office . when the film released earlier this month , it became an instant success with fans and critics alike thanks to writer / director james gunn and his charismatic cast of colorful characters . while some felt the film wasn’t as fresh as the original , guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 has enjoyed immense success at the box office thus far which has naturally led marvel to bring gunn back for a third film .

star zoe saldana , who plays the assassin gamora , was less knowledgable about the third film .

" this is going to be the greatest spectacle film of all time , " chris says .

gunn is the co - writer and director of the film and , on the occasion of the blu - ray release , we got to talk to him about the surprising success of the film . we also chatted about some of his regrets , common misinterpretations of parts of the movie , the marketing and his next film , 2017’s guardians of the galaxy 2 .

) very early in the process so the actors could listen to the film’s eventual score during the creation of the movie’s most emotional moments and action scenes . the hope was hearing the film’s score so early in the process would let them better understand the film’s tone . read the full quote below .

the film will split the team in two , as confirmed by producer jonathan schwartz to screen rant .

journalists were treated to an early look at the marvel studios film ahead of its may 5 release .

at the end of the film , a shirtless putin comes riding in on horseback and kills them all .

the film is scheduled for uk release on april 28 , 2017 – a whole week before the us .

in terms of score – we’ve heard a few snippets of the music for the film via gunn’s instagram .

guardians 2 will be charting the rollercoaster of emotions star - lord feels about his newly revealed pops , as well as exploring the family relationships forged between the team in the first film .

all too often in the film business , a great freshman effort is followed up by a half - baked sophomore letdown . fortunately , moviegoers and guardians fans have nothing to worry about .

if you ' ve seen the first guardians of the galaxy , you know that it is not the typical super hero film but for me the first one is actually the best one ever . so as you can expect i was very keen to see volume two .

the comedy is what made this film so enjoyable . timings were down to a point . well , the comedy and baby groot . and the soundtrack .

gunn also teased that the third film will be an ending of sorts for star - lord ( chris pratt ) , and his gang of misfit heroes .

guardians , whose russian title is zashchitniki , is set at the height of the cold war era and features a group of soviet superheroes defending their country . under the same deal , turbo films will co - produce sequel guardians 2 .

there are no featured audience reviews yet . click the link below to see what others say about guardians ( zashchitniki ) !

just like the first one , guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 is a winning and wonderfully relatable gem of crazy .

chris pratt and wife anna faris might have initially seemed a little distant at the premiere for ' guardians vol 2 . '

the first reactions to guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 have been shared on twitter following a press screening in la .

likewise , in guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 we discover so much about our rag - tag band of heroes . we learn more about star - lord ' s parents and his backstory . we discover that the assumptions we made ( and that peter made ) about one of the first film ' s chief antagonists were tragically misguided . relationships between the guardians are deepened and expanded in the sequel , giving the narrative more dimension . in this way , the sequel actually changes and impacts the original . the way we watch the first film will never be the same .

saying that , i believe the sequel surpasses the first in its original approach to the story . the plot ( spolier alert ) of peter ' s dad and his murderous , evil plans are really just there to have a reason to make a film - otherwise it ' s character development that carries that film , with insanely good humour and atmosphere . i already thought , based on the first film , that guardians is one of the most entertaining and original marvel storylines put on screen - even though it sounded like it ' ll be just a weak attempt at first - and this sequel just goes to show .

ego himself introduces some apparently huge freudian issues to the film , which on paper would seem to take the film’s emotional impact up a notch or two . but they are dealt with insouciantly , even flippantly – far more so than in something like star wars or superman . that’s in keeping of course , with the distinctive comic flavour of this franchise , but the revelations about quill’s background just zing and ping around with the same pinball - velocity as everything else in the film . it’s fun , though gotg2 doesn’t have the same sense of weird urgency and point that the first film had . they’re still guarding , although the galaxy never seems in much danger .

guardians of the galaxy vol 2 retains the look and tone of the original , replete with semi - crude humor , heartfelt moments , and bombastic action pieces . at the same time , it gives us an entirely new story without rehashing too much of the first film ' s narrative formula .

with over £33m in 17 days , the second guardians of the galaxy movie has overtaken la la land ( £30 . 4m ) to become the second biggest hit of 2017 , behind only beauty and the beast ( uncatchable at £71 . 6m ) . this means disney has scored the two biggest hits of the year so far in the uk . the first guardians of the galaxy film grossed £28 . 5m in summer 2014 .

guardians 2 will be released in the uk on april 28 , 2017 , and in the us on may 5 , 2017 .

i ' d rather watch this than guardians of the galaxy . so it ' s got that going for it at least .

here ' s how the cast of ' guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 ' looks compared to their comic - book counterparts

in " guardians of the galaxy , " ayesha is the golden high priestess of a group of perfect beings called the sovereign .

damn . i loved guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 . @ jamesgunn is a hero and surprise faces steal the show .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 is filled with tons of surprises and an unexpected amount of emotion . another marvel winner .

gunn revealed that the movie is set only two months after the first film , which presumably places the events before the avengers - dividing events of captain america : civil war .

copyrights and trademarks for the film and related entertainment properties mentioned herein are held by their respective owners and are used with permission or solely for the promotional purposes of said properties .

was the fourth film in history to gross $ 1 billion worldwide . and since that time , there have been just five other comic book superhero movies to do so , namely

whether these characters turn up in avengers : infinity war or guardians 3 is still up for debate , of course , but one thing is for sure – based on what we’ve seen and heard , there’s plenty of life in the guardians for years to come .

are marvel studios bound by the same child labour laws as everyone else ? the reason i ask is that the production design team on guardians of the galaxy vol 2 appears to have been entirely composed of sugared - up three and four - years - olds going berserk . not that the first guardians of the galaxy film , a swashbuckling science - fiction offshoot from the marvel cinematic universe , was a paragon of bressonian austerity to start with .

that’s not to say that the film isn’t enormous fun . the usp of the guardians films remains the deft writing by james gunn . if the avengers film scripts are the charismatic alpha frat heroes , guardians of the galaxy represents the wisecracking nerdy outsiders . which , let’s face it , is always going to play well with a comic - book - movie audience . the space pirate steampunk aesthetic gives the movie a distinctively battered and cranky appeal . the story , which sees peter quill ( chris pratt ) unravel the question of his true parentage , goes heavy on themes of family and redemption . still , in the generic , effects - heavy blitzkrieg of a final act , the film loses both the human ( ish ) connection and the scrappy maverick spirit that sets it apart from its marvel stablemates .

this film escapes the general sequel fate by acting being on par if not better ( yes better ) than the first one . the soundtrack rivals the first , and it has even more funny come - backs than before . well worth a watch , even if you ' re not a marvel fan . this is the perfect non - superhero superhero film !

guardians undoubtedly manages to deliver set pieces that have never been seen before and in a moscow setting still relatively alien to international audiences .

are you ready for a second dose of guardians of the galaxy ? the sequel has finished filming , its lead actor has revealed .

" i am wrapping mr chris pratt from the set of guardians of the galaxy volume 2 , " james says in the video .

me myself and i . . . kurt russell as ego in guardians of the galaxy vol 2 . photograph : © marvel studios 2017

let ' s look at each of these individually , and then see how they apply to guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 .

the film , which is set for a 2017 release , is directed by sarik andreasyan and comes from russian production company turbo films . it already has a sequel in the works .

they are joined along the way by gamora’s petulant sister nebula , space pirate yondu and mantis , an empathic alien . the film is scheduled to open in theaters on may 5 .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 develops the stories of the core characters , and provides plenty of laughs . there have been some criticisms about the lack of giant boss battle , but i found that i really didn ' t care : i was invested in the characters , so i enjoyed the film a lot .

the first non - bollywood foreign language film to pass the £1m barrier since pedro almodóvar’s julieta last autumn is park chan - wook’s the handmaiden . the erotic drama reached the milestone on sunday ; the tally including the monday holiday is now £1 . 04m . the film was helped on its way by a six - day secret cinema run that delivered £159 , 000 . apart from almodóvar titles , the last non - bollywood foreign language film to reach £1m in the uk was 2014’s the raid 2 , so the arthouse sector takes encouragement from the handmaiden’s success .

guardians 2 once again follows the adventures of star - lord ( chris pratt ) , gamora ( zoe saldana ) , drax ( dave bautista ) , rocket ( bradley cooper ) and baby groot ( vin diesel ) . the film also stars michael rooker , sean gunn and kurt russell as star - lord’s father , ego .

chris pratt plays peter quill / star - lord , the leader of the guardians . his helmet looks a bit scarier in the comics .

groot in the 2008 " guardians of the galaxy " comic series ( top right ) and 2007 ' s " annihilation : conquest . "

adding to this bonfire of guardians news , screenrant relates that gunn is aiming to start filming vol . 3 as soon as late 2018 :

goldie hawn and partner kurt russell walked the carpet together . russell plays peter quill ' s father ego in ' guardians vol 2 . '

we know the crew will be back once more to save the universe , but from what exactly ? elizabeth debicki ' s gold - slathered ayesha seems so far established as the film ' s main villain , but it ' s unclear what exactly her plan is here , and how it may involve the participation of the guardians .

guardians of the galaxy 2 is set for release may 5 , 2017 . it’ll bring back the primary cast of the first film – chris pratt , zoe saldana , dave bautista , vin diesel , bradley cooper , michael rooker and more – in a story that will reportedly delve deeper into the backstories of these characters . it will also likely reveal the identity of peter quill’s father and feature more thanos , played by josh brolin . however , though thanos will almost certainly play a role in the film , gunn does not think guardians of the galaxy 2 is simply a prequel to avengers : infinity war part 1 , which will be released a year after .

all around good sci - fi fun film . the pacing was a bit off and it seemed as though there were too many characters to follow along , but it is definitely worth watching .

the completely bonkers russian superhero movie guardians will be released in the united states by shout ! factory on blu - ray and dvd . the film came out in russia in february after wowing the entire world with its crazy trailers featuring an avengers - like squad of superheroes battling an evil electricity - controlling professor and his army of clones .

while fans will have to wait until after development begins on the next two avengers films before anything concrete will occur with guardians of the galaxy vol . 3 , that certainly hasn’t stopped them from showing up for guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 in droves . it didn ' t just have a big opening but has remained strong throughout may . this week , it ' s fourth on release , the film even beat out newcomer baywatch and has now passed a major milestone .

i went into guardians with fairly low expectations , as i loved the first one so much . however , i needn ' t have worried .

a prominent feature of the first guardians movie was its ' 80s - tastic soundtrack , and the second movie will not disappoint on that score .

that ' s no mean feat , considering guardians of the galaxy were relatively unknown characters compared to the likes of captain america and iron man .

had tons of fun with guardians of the galaxy 2 . incredibly funny , beautifully colorful , and great continuations of the heroes . super happy !

chris pratt had both guns blazing as he arrived at the world premiere of ' guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 ' in hollywood wednesday .

ryan gilbey is the new statesman ' s film critic . he is also the author of it don ' t worry me ( faber ) , about 1970s us cinema , and a study of groundhog day in the " modern classics " series ( bfi publishing ) . he was named reviewer of the year in the 2007 press gazette awards and is film critic in residence at falmouth university .

“with no new comedies coming up for really quite some time , we’re feeling really good , ” fox’s president of domestic distribution chris aronson said about the film , which marks hawn’s first film appearance in 15 years . “i think the dynamic pairing of amy and goldie , and having goldie’s return to the big screen is a good thing . the pairing of those two is pretty inspired . ”

“i think that the third movie is going to continue this trilogy , the story of this iteration of the guardians of the galaxy , ” said gunn , who announced earlier this week that he would be returning to write and direct the third film . “it’s going to do it in a big way , and we’re going to come to an epic conclusion of who the guardians are and why they were brought together , and i can’t wait to tell that story to the people . ”

fyodor bondarchuk ' s wwii action film , distributed by huaxia , came out in 2013 and grossed $ 11 . 5 million in china , which made it the largest foreign market for the movie .

a film that makes a praiseworthy effort , but at the moment of executing its missions , its protagonists become mere pretexts to generate interminable and lethargic sequences of action . [ full review in spanish ]

compare this to speed 2 : cruise control . that film simply took a bus and replaced it with a cruise ship . not only is that a gimmick , it ' s an absurd gimmick that takes the framework of the original film and simply and plops it down in a new , ludicrous scenario . the script was so bad , keanu reeves turned down a hefty paycheck . smart move .

but don ' t worry , he ' s not going to be going anywhere other than space when it comes to marvel : " as long as i ' m working with marvel , i ' ll probably be working on guardians and guardians - related projects . " groot ! sorry , woot !

yondu ( michael rooker ) and rocket racoon ( voiced by bradley cooper ) share a moment in " guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 . "

guardians of the galaxy is one of the most successful marvel movies yet , making more than $ 771m ( £540m ) at the worldwide box office .

marvel studios unveiled guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 for a group of press monday night , and the first social media actions are flying in .

guardians of the galaxy vol 2 is a lot of fun . action - packed & even more classic ' 70s / early ' 80s music cues .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 is funnier than the original , a ton of surprises , and an unexpected emotional profoundness . i am groot .

as already noted , the mcu ' s big bad thanos ( now portrayed by josh brolin ) won ' t have another cameo in the new film ahead of his avengers : infinity war starring role .

it was kind of a first date from hell , ” vezmar told the statesman , explaining how the date refused to stop texting , leaving the cinema mid - way through the film and not returning .

' age of ultron ' and ' iron man 2 ' couldn ' t top their predecessors , but a mix of emotion , character growth and personal stakes helped james gunn ' s film rise above .

in marvel lingo , guardians 2 feels like a great six - issue arc , the kind of storytelling that used to be the backbone of superhero comics .

saldana plays the green - skinned character gamora in ' guardians . ' on the purple carpet , saldana was stunning in a burnt - orange emilio pucci dress .

also cracking the top 10 at no . 8 is lowriders , which stars demian bichir , eva longoria , melissa benoist , and gabrial chavarria . the bh tilt film earned $ 2 . 4 million from 275 locations , for a per theater earning of $ 8 , 180 . the film tells the story of a mexican - american teenager who must attempt to navigate the growing tension between his criminal brother and their more traditional father .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 is now the second most successful first sequel in the marvel cinematic universe ( avengers : age of ultron being the only film above it ) worldwide as well as the most successful superhero movie not featuring bruce wayne , peter parker or tony stark . in other words , gunn and company have achieved something that not many fans would have imagined back in 2014 before the release of the first guardians of the galaxy : bringing obscure comic characters to the big screen and making viewers fall in love with them .

the original guardians of the galaxy movie began in august 2014 with £4 . 99m , plus £1 . 37m in previews . comparing the like - for - like three - day weekend periods , the sequel has opened 162 % bigger . disney is also celebrating beauty and the beast crossing £70m in the uk at the weekend – it is only the eighth film to do so .

the plot is bone - headed and the quality of the visual effects is terrible , but there is a pure , unironic sense of purpose in this film that is utterly charming and , at times , unintentionally hilarious .

there are hints in the first guardians that yondu has a soft spot for peter , or that rocket raccoon is , at heart , caring . but even the vicious sibling rivalry between gamora and nebula plays out in natural , spiky fashion , not as if it was forced to bring the guardians closer to the avengers in the marvel cinematic universe ( despite their adopted dad being the main connection ) . nebula , nowhere near a “good” character in the first film , gets layers through gunn’s script and gillan’s performance , suggesting nuance where little existed originally .

fan theories suggest this trio will play the original 1969 guardians of the galaxy - starhawk , charlie - 27 and nikki - but this is yet to be confirmed .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 has tested higher than any marvel studios movie in the company’s nine - year history . the movie’s score : a perfect 100 .

the sequel follows 2014’s “guardians of the galaxy , ” which smashed summer box office records and ushered in a new cadre of edgy heroes in the marvel cinematic universe .

it would be unfair to call the guardians’ interactions and relationships “depoliticized , ” but only because they’re devoid of any kind of dynamic . there’s clearly never a hint of their respective cultures and traditions being anything more than superficial aesthetics , and given the disconnect between their origins and their ultimate goal , it feels like “depoliticization” for very political reasons . with the film’s chinese distributor now producing the sequel – oh yes , they haphazardly tease guardians 2 here – it’s going to be interesting to see how these themes play out with the inclusion of chinese characters heroes .

( also , it turned out that fox actually controlled the film rights to ego , with the studios proving they can get along by agreeing to a swap that allowed deadpool to alter the powers of one its characters . )

meanwhile , marvel’s president kevin feige has recently revealed an intriguing teaser about the sequel’s setting . “there’s a little bit of earth in this film , but it’s not these characters going to earth , ” he told cinema blend .

you could sense a lot of critics struggling with these competing impulses when it came to evaluating " guardians . " we ' ve all spent years thinking that commercial filmmaking depended at least in part on strong storytelling — " jaws , " " the terminator " and countless others . and yet here was a seemingly pleasurable commercial film in which the storytelling didn ' t seem to matter at all .

set two months after the end of the first film , the same team continues travelling and fighting together chris pratt is returning in the leading roll of peter quill aka star - lord . following his victories in the first film , the character has a new sense of leadership and fame for his heroism . zoe saldana also returns as gamora , as well as vin diesel as voice of the the beloved tree humanoid groot ( who’s now a baby , remember ) , and bradley cooper as raccoon bounty hunter , rocket . karen gillian is also returning in the sequel as nebula and in the second film , director james gunn has revealed that her character will become ‘huge’ part of the plot .

david kozlowski is a writer , podcaster , and visual artist . a u . s . army veteran , david worked 20 years in the videogame industry and is a graduate of arizona state university ' s film and media studies .

bloody disgusting reports that shout ! factory is coming out with a dvd and blu - ray of guardians in the united states on september 5 , 2017 . the synopsis :

if you ' ve seen marvel ' s space opera guardians of the galaxy - " i am groot ! ' , by the way - you ' re guaranteed to be interested in its sequel , guardians of the galaxy 2 . here , then , is everything you need to know about chris pratt ' s other blockbuster franchise . . .

guardians of the galaxy vol 2 . is very fun . takes the empire " split up your characters " strategy . drax is a hoot . baby groot steals the show

holy smokes was guardians of the galaxy , vol 2 fun ! i had a smile plastered on my face nearly the whole time . tons of easter eggs too . urltoken

guardians of the galaxy 2 kept a smile on my face from beginning to end . funny , action packed , emotional , and tons of surprises . thumbs up . urltoken

spacefaring superhero sequel guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 may only have just reached cinemas , but we’re already looking ahead to what’s next for marvel’s most offbeat intergalactic heroes .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 is a whole heap of fun . gorgeous , a bit mad , and surprisingly emotional . and yes , baby groot is everything .

in the novel version of the lost world , the sequel to jurassic park , we ' re shocked to discover that ian malcolm is alive ! in a twist straight out of the princess bride , we discover that malcolm was only mostly dead at the end of the first novel , paving the way for malcolm to take center stage in the sequel and its film adaptation . malcolm is , of course , alive and well at the end of the first film .

while it could ' ve been worse , guardians , russia ' s answer to the avengers , also could ' ve been so much better than what it is . awkwardly paced , poorly cgi ' d , and filled with paper - thin plotting and characters , guardians turns something with the potential to be mindless schlocky fun into something unforgivably dull .

the film tells the story of a team of heroes gathered during the cold war to fight a supervillain whose march on moscow is unstoppable — namely because the bad guy has been able to disable all machinery ( rendering the military useless ) . the team of heroes is called the guardians , and they each represent different nationalities of the soviet union , with the team putting aside their differences for the greater good .

in 2014 , marvel continued their winning streak with the big - screen adaptation of comic book franchise guardians of the galaxy . starring chris pratt , vin diesel , zoe saldana , wrestler dave bautista and bradley cooper , the film quickly became one of the runaway success of the year and proved that marvel could smash it with ensemble cast that didn’t feature the likes of iron man , the hulk , et al .

in guardians we have the same crew in a new scenario , and the universe they inhabit becomes infinitely more complex , dangerous and breathtaking . only now we have demi - god celestials and their extraordinary powers , grudge - holding , golden - skinned sovereign out for revenge , and so much more . even just the way the spaceships and magic technology were expanded helped color in the film ' s outrageous universe .

despite all the excitement over the film ' s impressive trailers , critics in russia totally blasted it and though it did have a strong first weekend at the russian box office it suffered from bad word - of - mouth and its business quickly tailed off . so it doesn ' t look like we ' ll be getting a guardians 2 . with impressive special effects and tons of weird action , guardians looks like another worthy addition to shout ! factory ' s already - impressive catalog of cult films , indie flicks , off - beat tv series , animation titles and other various oddities .

that’s what makes gunn’s guardians series so marvelous , though . the action and story are epic but the small quirks — like its mini sentient tree — make a big difference .

guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 had the nearly impossible task of living up to the expectations of the surprise 2014 hit — and in some rather surprising ways , it succeeded .

the action sequences , 3d or not , are text - book daring and explosive , but it is the music that raises the bar in this film as , during moments of extreme danger , a seventies classic comes on to ease the tension .

before getting into its team comprising a ghosting swordsman , an invisible water - woman , a psionic rock - man and a were - bear , a slightly less alluring analysis . i wish there were a way to talk about guardians without mentioning its international packaging – less a means to reach across cultural lines and more a dilution of an already cheap product – but it speaks volumes about the film’s rollout . here in india , people are unsure of what to even call it in print ; the colon in the full form above was my addition to clarify what i assume was the intent . other sites have guardians – the superheroes , which makes sense , but ticketing websites , imdb and the films own opening titles simply have “ guardians the superheroes ” as the actual title . that’s one of the two title cards in the film , mind you , the first seemingly added for its international audience , followed by the name of the production company ( “enjoy movies , ” which feels like a threat at gunpoint ) . the second opening title card simply says guardians , coming up at an opportune moment as an answer to a question ( much like in marvel’s the avengers ) , while the interim between these two disparate monikers is filled with blueprints , experiments , and hints of the guardians’ creation , followed by a military board meeting to extemporize this information , further intercut with flashes of what we’ve already heard .

one limited release managed to break into the top ten as blumhouse’s tilt label put out “lowriders” in 295 locations . the film , toplined by demian bichir , gabriel chavarria , theo rossi , and eva longoria over - performed with $ 2 . 4 million , putting it in the eighth slot overall . john hegeman , who runs tilt , said the film’s success was a combination of connecting with the intended audience , having strong partners including brian grazer and telemundo , and being incredibly specific about targeting theaters .

yondu may have started out as a villain in 2014 ' s " guardians of the galaxy , " but he was actually one of the original members of the group in the comics .

whether the $ 17 . 31 has been paid remains a mystery at present . meanwhile , guardians of the galaxy is showing in cinemas around the world . just don’t text during screenings .

james gunn is set to end his marvel trilogy with guardians of the galaxy vol . 3 and has revealed it could start filming as soon as late 2018 . in just a few years , gunn has cemented his place in the history of the marvel cinematic universe by taking an obscure group of characters like the guardians and turning them into some of marvel ' s most popular characters . this movement began back in 2014 , but returned this year as guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 hit theaters to critical praise and outperformed the first at the box office .

don ' t think i ' ve heard so much laughter at a press screening . people seemed to really be digging guardians vol . 2 . can ' t say more ( yet )

“ guardians of the galaxy vol . 2 ” continued its box office reign this weekend , while “ king arthur : legend of the sword ” is the summer season’s first major flop .

what can i say ? it was funny , entertaining , and i loved the soundtrack . the plot was . . . well , it ' s a superhero movie , right , but i didn ' t expect so much of it to revolve around some batteries and revenge . . . the arc about star lord and his father was interesting but i think it was just too drawn out to be worth staking a film on , and it just became more and more implausible as the film went on .

and that ' s the reason that film has already earned a profit of more than rs 100 crore .

the trailer of the film was released on 17 december 2014 and passed over 1 million views on youtube within 24 hours . the film was promoted at famous reality shows like bigg boss and comedy nights with kapil .

in april 2014 , the film began another schedule with the director remarking that vaibhav ' s character in the film would have shades of the role portrayed by karthik in mani ratnam ' s mouna ragam ( 1986 ) .

the fourth chapter of mirchi music awards south , an awards ceremony solely dedicated to excellence in film music , saw its ‘grand jury meet ' take place on july 9 at park plaza , marathahalli in bangalore . the event , which has been executed by different event companies over the years , is yet to fix an event agency for this year ' s awards ceremony . this year marks the fourth year of the event in south india and the 11th mirchi music awards event across the country .

maanikya : the 2013 telugu film mirchi , starring prabhas and anushka shetty , was a massive hit , so much so that it inspired remakes in two other regional film industries - - bengali and kannada . the sandalwood version was highly anticipated as it brought power actors sudeep and v ravichandaran together on the big screen for the first time . the action - drama released in 2014 , and was considered one of the blockbusters of that year . it even managed to cross the 100 - day mark in theatres . maanikya also earned the distinction of being the first kannada film to be screened at the indian film festival of ireland .

coming to the direction of the film , as we mentioned above , we praise the effort and thought of omung kumar for bringing out such unique kind of biopics . but the overuse of melodrama and lectures ended up making the film look draggy and inspite of having a touching storyline , many shots of the film went untouched .

the audio of prabhas - starrer mirchi will be released on december 23 , 2012 . officials from the production are trying to settle for this date for the audio and release the film early next year . producers vamsi krishna reddy and pramod uppalapati exude confidence about the project and say that prabhas ' performance and devi sri prasad ' s peppy tunes are going to be a major asset for the film . currently the film unit is filming a last song of the film in a specially erected set in annapurna 7 acres , hyderabad . with this the entire shooting of the film will be completed . anushka and richa gangopadhyay are playing the female lead roles opposite prabhas in this film . now the latest news is that the movie audio will be released on december 23rd and the movie will be released on february 7th on the occasion of shivaratri . director koratala siva is almost done filming the film and the post production works are being carried simultaneously . prabhas would be romancing anushka and richa gangopadhyay in this film . the first look and the trailer of the film have got great response and prabhas ' uber - cool looks in this romantic and family entertainer are to be watched out for .

while the film wrapped up nearly a year ago , there’s still no sign of its release . according to reports , the film has no curiosity in the maker and nobody is interested to bet their money on it .

in september 2011 , the makers of the movie finalized the casting of the film with two heroines anushka and richa gangopadhyay . the father and mother characters in the film are being played by tamil actors sathyaraj and nadhiya .

in the contrary , the times of india gave the film a revised rating of 3 . 5 / 5 ( from 2 . 5 / 5 ) , recommending the film , " watch it for prabhas , for there isn ' t much of anything else that this movie has to offer , besides extreme close - ups of richa ' s waistline . " [ 36 ] ndtv movies gave the film a mixed review , stating that " apart from good direction and strong performances by lead actors , mirchi lacks narrative power and is loosely based on an amalgamation of some old films , which makes the film quite predictable . " [ 37 ]

young rebel star prabhas’s ‘mirchi’ is releasing today amidst good expectations . the buzz around the film is pretty good due to prabhas’s stylish looks and a hit musical album . anushka and richa gangopadhyay are the heroines in this movie and devi sri prasad has composed the music . let us see how the movie is .

siima awards ceremony will be a grand event with several celebrities from four south film industries gathering under one roof .
