Nivin Pauly Slams Producers’ Body Over 2025 Box Office List_我的网站

一 | The Kerala Film Producers’ Association recently released a list of Malayalam films that hit theatres in 2025, complete with their reported commercial performance. What was meant to be an industry update has quickly turned into a flashpoint, drawing sharp criticism from filmmakers, actors and audiences alike.A List That Sparked a StormOne of the earliest voices to question the list was Anuraj Manohar, director of Narivetta, which stars Tovino Thomas. The filmmaker took to social media asking why his film was missing from the document and demanded clarity on the criteria used to compile it. His post opened the floodgates, with netizens and industry insiders scrutinising the accuracy and intent behind the classification of films as superhits, hits or otherwise.The controversy only intensified when actor Nivin Pauly weighed in during a press conference held to promote his upcoming film Sarvam Maya. Addressing reporters, Nivin said that publishing such a list was unnecessary and unprecedented. According to him, cinema is a business like any other and every year will naturally see a mix of profit and loss. He argued that there was no reason to put those figures out in public, especially at a time when the Malayalam industry is trying to evolve and attract fresh investment. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Anuraj Radhamani Manohar (@anurajmanohar) Nivin added that making commercial verdicts public in this manner could do more harm than good, as it risks creating a negative perception among potential investors and partners. His statement has since been widely shared, with many agreeing that transparency should not come at the cost of damaging the ecosystem.Confusion Over Hits, Superhits and Missing FilmsAdding to the uproar is the way the association has categorised the year’s releases. Only a small number of films have been labelled as superhits and hits, leaving the majority outside these brackets. This has triggered heated online debates, especially over the classification of certain high-profile titles.A key point of contention is the treatment of Eko and Empuraan. Social media users are questioning why Eko has been listed merely as a hit even though it reportedly earned higher net profits than Empuraan, which the list describes as a superhit. For many, this discrepancy has raised doubts about whether the parameters used were consistent or even reliable. Equally puzzling is the absence of Sumathi Valavu from either the hit or superhit categories. The film enjoyed a healthy run in theatres and generated strong word of mouth, making its omission all the more glaring. Fans and trade observers have since demanded an explanation from the association, arguing that incomplete or selective reporting only erodes trust.The backlash has also revived a broader conversation about Nivin Pauly’s own recent career trajectory. While several of his films over the past few years have struggled at the box office, many of them have been critically appreciated. In this context, his comments are being read not as defensive but as a plea for a more nuanced understanding of success, one that goes beyond financial labels.As the debate rages on, the Kerala Film Producers’ Association has yet to issue a detailed clarification on how the list was prepared or why certain films were excluded. Until then, the document is likely to remain a sore point, serving as a reminder that in an industry built on collaboration, public scorecards can easily backfire.Also Read: Nivin Pauly, Mohanlal and Pranav Spark a Social Media Frenzy With Surprise Jet Photos。 CANBERRA, Australia -- Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he will visit China in early November, making the announcement Sunday hours before he was to fly to the United States to meet with President Joe Biden.Albanese also said China agreed late Saturday to review the crippling tariffs it levied on Australian wine that have effectively blocked trade with the winemakers’ biggest export market since 2020.Albanese will become the first Australian prime minister to visit China in seven years when he travels to Beijing and Shanghai on Nov. 4-7.“It’s in Australia’s interest to have good relations with China, and certainly though my focus in the coming days will be very much on the visit to the United States,” Albanese told reporters at Australian Parliament House.“With Australia’s closest partner, talking about the future of our alliance, the future which has been upgraded by the AUKUS arrangements, a future based upon our common values, our commitment to democracy, and our commitment to the international rule of law and stable order throughout the globe,” Albanese added, using the acronym for Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.Under the trilateral pact, the U.S. and Britain will cooperate to provide Australia with a fleet of submarines powered by U.S. nuclear technology to counter a more assertive China.Albanese said he will meet with President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang in Beijing and then attend the China International Import Expo in Shanghai.The visit to China and a potential breakthrough in the wine dispute mark a further repair in relations since Albanese’s center-left Labor Party won elections last year after nine years of conservative government in Australia.China has agreed to review its tariffs on Australian wine over five months, Albanese's office said. In return, Australia has suspended its complaint against its free trade partner to the World Trade Organization.A similar dispute resolution plan led to China removing tariffs from Australian barley.Albanese said reopening the Chinese wine market would be worth more than 1 billion Australian dollars ($631 million) to exporters."We’re very confident that this will result in once again Australian wine, a great product, being able to go to China free of the tariffs which have been imposed by China," Albanese said.“It is important that we stabilize our relationship with China. That is in the interests of Australia and China, and it is indeed in the interests of the world that we have stable relations and that is what this visit will represent,” he added.The visit will come near the 50th anniversary of Labor Party leader Gough Whitlam becoming the first Australian prime minister to visit the People's Republic of China in 1973.Albanese accepted an invitation weeks ago to visit China this year, but finding suitable dates had been challenging.Albanese is visiting Washington to meet with Biden this week and will return to the United States after his China trip to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders’ forum in San Francisco on Nov. 15-17.It will be the ninth time Biden has met with Albanese as prime minister. The first meeting was in Tokyo hours after Albanese was sworn in as government leader in May last year for a leaders' summit of the Quad strategic partnership that also includes Japan and India.As well as the AUKUS deal, the leaders will also seek more cooperation on clean energy, critical minerals and climate change.Albanese’s department announced Friday that it decided after an investigation not to cancel a Chinese company’s 99-year lease on the strategically important Darwin Port despite U.S. concerns the foreign control could be used to spy on its military forces.Some security analysts interpreted the decision to let Shandong Landbridge Group keep the lease signed in 2015 and long criticized by Albanese as a concession to China ahead of his visit.China’s release of Australian journalist Cheng Lei this month after she spent three years in detention in Beijing on espionage allegations was widely seen as a concession to Australia.Albanese said the breakthrough on wine “has not been transactional,” meaning Australia did not make any corresponding concessions to Chinese demands.“We’ll continue to put our case on matters that are in Australia’s national interest,” he said.“I’ve said very consistently: We’ll cooperate with China where we can, we’ll disagree where we must, and we’ll engage in our national interest, and that’s precisely what we’re doing,” he added.。
