Release Date Dilemma

Initially slated for a December 20 release, Thandel's team reconsidered due to the crowded Christmas market, particularly with Ram Charan's Game Changer. Now, they're eyeing a Sankranti release, targeting January 13, just three days after Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara hits theaters on January 10.

Stiff Competition Ahead

The Sankranti season promises intense competition, with:

Chiranjeevi's Vishwambhara (January 10)
Venkatesh's upcoming film
Balakrishna's potential release
