Allu Arjun’s Na Peru Surya makers announced that they will release the film in April and Mahesh Babu’s Bharat Ane Nenu makers also came up with the announcement that their movie will release on the same day. In the middle of this, Rajinikanth’s 2PointO makers have now announced that the film is releasing in April.
Reacting to this, Mahesh’s producers stated, “Tollywood has always respected and embraced other language cinema. But a bigger project like Robo 2.0 changing their release dates has caused confusion among producers. All the Telugu movie producers who are releasing in the months of April and May are in discussions to avoid any competition among ourselves. However, this sudden announcement by ROBO 2 team to release in the month of April has left all the Telugu releases to further confusion. At this juncture, we request the trade bodies to take a conscious call and arrive at an amicable solution.”
Reacting to the same, Bunny Vas, the co-producer of Na Peru Surya stated, “@lyka productions (robo 2.0)….. we respect ur movie but ur changing of release dates is affecting regional movies’ release dates a lot ….me (naa peru surya naa ellu india) and dhanaya garu (bharath anu nenu) are in talks for an understanding ….i will take this issue to the producer’s council and exhibitor associations AP & Telangana …we stand for our date commitment …maybe this will be helpful for regional movie releases in future also. Today, Producer Council meeting is happening for an UNDERSTANDING on January RELEASES….it would be very nice, if the council brings same understanding between all producers who planned for April 2017 releases.,”
We need to wait few more days to get a clarity about the releases of the three films. Hollywood movie Avenger: Infinity War is also releasing around the same time in India.
