India walking a fine line between the U.S. and China: Gautam Bambawale
Adinath Kothare has shared a behind-the-scenes look at the physical and prosthetic transformation he underwent to portray two contrasting characters in Nayyi Navelli. The actor revealed that transitioning from Raja Awasthi, a wholesome family man, to Ravan, a character defined by pride, greed and tyranny, was one of the most challenging experiences of his career. Directed by M. Balaji and produced by Aanand L. Rai and Himanshu Sharma, in association with Amazon MGM Studios, Nayyi Navelli features an ensemble cast led by Yami Gautam, alongside Adinath Kothare, Anurag Thakurrr, Sunita Rajwar, Suneel Shine, Susmita Mukherjee and Mita Vasisht. Blending fantasy and comedy, the film continues its theatrical run into its third week. Taking to social media, Adinath shared a video documenting the transformation process, revealing that he underwent a four-hour daily routine for 20 days during the film's 50-day shooting schedule. The process involved considerable physical effort and the work of several departments to bring the two characters to life. Sharing the video, the actor wrote, A glimpse into my 4-hour daily transformation routine for 20 out of our 50-day shoot schedule! Going from Raja Awasthi to Ravan has been the most challenging, painful, yet deeply rewarding experience of my career. It is incredibly rare for an actor to play two completely opposite ends of the spectrum in a single film: Raja, the ultimate green-flag family man, and Ravan, the epitome of pride, greed, and tyranny! This insane transformation truly took a village. A huge shoutout to the incredible teams who made it happen. A tight hug and endless gratitude to my amazing co-actors for their constant support and motivation: @yamigautam @anurag.thakurrr @sunita_rajwar @suneelshine @susmita_mukherjeeofficial @mitavasisht @kullubaaazi @pratiekpachori and the entire Awasthi family! I am in absolute awe of our captain, @directormbalaji for making this wild circus of fantasy and comedy come alive so beautifully! Endless gratitude to my visionary producers @aanandlrai & #himanshusharma, and the magician casting director, @castingchhabra for believing I could pull this off. Thank you for the overwhelming love, everyone! Nayyi Navelli is now successfully running in its 3rd week at the Box Office! The transformation required Adinath to portray two characters with contrasting appearances and personalities. While Raja Awasthi represents a caring family man, Ravan embodies pride, greed and tyranny. The shift called for physical preparation, prosthetic work and coordination between the makeup, costume and other production teams. In his post, the actor acknowledged the contribution of the crew, his co-stars, director M. Balaji, producers Aanand L. Rai and Himanshu Sharma, and casting director Mukesh Chhabra. His note highlighted the collaborative effort behind the transformation and the support he received throughout the process. As Nayyi Navelli continues its theatrical run, Adinath's behind-the-scenes video offers a closer look at the preparation involved in bringing his two contrasting characters to the screen.

Directed by Anubhav Sinha and produced by Gauri Khan under Red Chillies Entertainment, Ra.One was released worldwide on October 26, 2011, during Diwali. Starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Arjun Rampal, the sci-fi film combined superhero storytelling with visual effects and action sequences that were ambitious for Indian cinema at the time. The film set box office opening records upon its release and went on to earn over Rs 200 crores worldwide. It also received recognition for its technical work, winning honours at major award ceremonies, including the National Film Awards and the Filmfare Awards. Fifteen years later, Ra.One continues to be discussed for its scale and technological ambition. While the film attempted to bring a high-tech superhero universe to Indian screens at a time when the genre was still developing, its approach to visual effects and computer-generated imagery has remained an important part of conversations around Indian sci-fi cinema. To mark the film's 15th anniversary, director Anubhav Sinha and Benaras Mediaworks took to social media to look back at the journey of creating the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer. Reflecting on the challenges and ambition behind the project, Sinha wrote, 2011 wasn't ready for it. Somewhere between magic and madness, we made the future. Released at a time when large-scale visual effects-driven superhero films were still relatively uncommon in India, Ra.One sought to explore a different kind of cinematic storytelling. From its futuristic costumes and CGI-heavy sequences to its action set-pieces, the film represented an attempt to expand the technical possibilities of mainstream Hindi cinema. The project required the team to work on a scale that was still emerging within the Indian film industry. Its ambitions extended beyond a conventional superhero narrative, with an emphasis on creating a distinct visual world for audiences. Over the years, Ra.One has continued to attract attention for its technical experimentation and its attempt to bring a science-fiction spectacle to Indian audiences. As the film completes 15 years, Sinha's reflection revisits the ambition behind a project that sought to push the boundaries of visual effects and superhero storytelling in Indian cinema.
