Gulte Telugu news
Kangana Ranaut’s ambitious project Thalaivi is all set to hit the screens on September 10. After multiple delays, the makers have finalized the date and are taking a risk of screening the film even though most of the theatres remain shut across the country.
It is reported that the film’s Tamil and Telugu will be premiered online, on both Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, four weeks after its theatrical release. But the Hindi version will start streaming online just two weeks after the theatrical release.
This decision didn’t go well with multiplex chains like PVR and INOX which threatened the makers not to screen the movie at all. After a series of talks, it felt like the issue is settled. But a recent post of Kangana stated that some of the southern multiplex chains are still threatening not to screen the movie.
Her post read, “No films are choosing theatres, very few and very brave like my producers @vishnuinduri @shaaileshrsinqh are compromising on huge profits and letting go off exclusive streaming options only for the love of cinema.”
“In these times we must support each other and not bully or arm-twist, it’s our fundamental right to recover the cost of our film which we did, we may have two weeks window for Hindi version but for the south, we have four weeks window yet multiplexes ganging up on us and stopping our release there as well… This is unfair and cruel in these testing times when major territories like Maharashtra are also shut…,” she further added.
Kangana concluded by saying, “Please let’s help each other in order to save theatres.” Thalaivi is directed by AL Vijay and is based on the life of former actress and ex-Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Jayalalitha.
