SS Rajamouli‘s film RRR starring biggies like Ram Charan, Jr. NTR, Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn was set for a January 2022 release.
However, news of this historical drama getting postponed again is all over the media.
But it’s not just the postponing that’s a concern. There could apparently be a clash of three big-budget films and it’s not looking good! As per a report, the makers of RRR plan on releasing the film this Eid.
A close source to Rajamouli discloses, “The cases across the country are decreasing. Producers of many films are hopeful that the situation will improve and probably be back to normal by March. RRR is a major tent-pole film. It’s a high-budget film, and the producers do not want to take chances, as they want to make sure they get good returns.“
“The pre-release promotions of RRR have created a lot of buzz across the country. The makers are therefore planning to release the film on April 29, which is Eid weekend. The makers are looking at the situation and will then decide and make an official announcement,” says the source.
However, another concern is that if at all the film is to release on Eid, it will clash with another Ajay Devgn starrer ‘Runway 34‘ and Tiger Shroff’s Heropanti 2. “All three are big-budget films and if they plan to release on the same day, it will be a huge loss for producers, exhibitors and distributors. While a lot of films have been postponed and the new release date announcements are expected soon, Eid surely looks a bit crowded and it will be a wait and watch the game as to who blinks first,” the source adds.
