The Telugu remake of Asuran, Narappa, has been postponed. The makers made an official statement confirming the postponement of the film’s release which was initially scheduled for 14th May release.
“In lieu of the pandemic, #Narappa will not be releasing on May 14th. A new theatrical date will be announced once we overcome this unprecedented crisis. Stay Safe,” tweeted Venkatesh Daggubati.
However, there were some rumours that the film may have a direct OTT release. With several films opting for OTT release in the pandemic times, it was also rumoured that Venkatesh’s Narappa may also have an OTT release. But proving all those rumours as false, it is officially announced that the film’s new theatrical date would be announced.
It is learnt that the film’s producer Suresh Babu is keen on having a theatrical release for Narappa and he wants to release the film only in cinemas once the situation comes to normalcy. In the statement released to press it is said that the new release date of the film would be announced appropriately and the film would be released when the “time is right”. The film is directed by Srikanth Addala and it has Mani Sharma’s music.
“Narappa is a film that we have made with a lot of dedication and hard work and your love towards the film has been overwhelming. However, we are all going through a turbulent time during this unprecedented global pandemic and hence, keeping in mind the health and safety of our beloved audience, the theatrical release of the film has been postponed. We will bring Narappa to you just when the time is right…Until then, be safe, take care of yourself and stay strong. We will all get through this together,” reads the statement.
