On the occasion of Allu Arjun’s birthday last Monday, the makers of Pushpa 2: The Rule unveiled the teaser, reaffirming the release of Sukumar’s directorial venture on August 15 this year. Now, rumours are rife that the makers of Singham Again, who were also eyeing the Independence Day window, are contemplating a Diwali release. Even though Rohit Shetty is shooting as per schedule, sources claim that the filmmaker and lead actor Ajay Devgn aren’t exactly rushing to meet the deadline. Their priority is that final product does justice to the vision and the stellar cast comprising Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone Tiger Shroff and Arjun Kapoor. “Rohit and Ajay have a 100 per cent success rate with festival releases. Sooryavanshi [2021] too did huge box-office numbers despite the post-pandemic restrictions in cinemas,” points an industry insider. In that case, the makers of Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 might have to look for an alternate date. Though they had announced their release plans first, let’s see if they are willing to battle Rohit’s supercop army for the box-office pie.
