As the highly anticipated release date of January 12th, 2024 approaches, Teja Sajja’s “Hanuman” finds itself in a challenging position, sharing the same release day with Superstar Mahesh Babu’s much-anticipated “Guntur Kaaram.” While the buzz surrounding “Hanuman” is positive, the film faces a tough road in securing theatre allotments in the competitive South Indian cinema landscape.
Despite generating considerable excitement, “Hanuman” is considered a smaller film in comparison to its heavyweight competitors, particularly “Guntur Kaaram.” The struggle to secure a significant number of screens becomes evident, posing an initial hurdle for the film’s visibility and reach. The clash with a high-profile release intensifies the competition, making it a formidable challenge for the team.
Adding to the predicament, the renowned distributor Dil Raju has acquired the Telugu dubbed version rights of Sivakarthikeyan’s “Ayaalan,” scheduled to release on the same day. This move further complicates the situation for “Hanuman,” as the film now contends not only with Mahesh Babu’s film but also with another prominent release from a seasoned distributor. The scarcity of available screens and the formidable competition present a significant hurdle for “Hanuman” to overcome.
Despite these challenges, the team behind “Hanuman” remains confident in the project. Emphasizing the age-old adage that ‘content is king,’ they express optimism that the film’s compelling narrative and engaging storyline will captivate audiences. With a steadfast belief in the strength of their content, the team hopes to navigate the tough competition, drawing the attention of viewers and emerging victorious in this clash of releases.
