The highly anticipated re-release of Rajinikanth’s blockbuster film “Sivaji” has encountered yet another setback. Despite the initial excitement surrounding the full-fledged special show bookings, it appears that there is a notable lack of interest among the audience to witness this classic on the big screen once again. This development comes as a disappointment for those eager to relive the magic of Rajinikanth and savor the lavish songs that made “Sivaji” a timeless favorite, bringing back nostalgic moments.
Originally planned to coincide with Rajinikanth’s birthday in the second week of December 2023, the re-release faced a setback due to the tepid response from the audience. Subsequently, the release was rescheduled to the year-end, aligning with the re-release of Ravi Teja’s “Venky” on the other end. However, the latest update reveals another postponement, and it is evident that “Sivaji” is facing tough competition from “Venky,” which seems to be gaining the upper hand in terms of audience interest. Additionally, the original release of Prabhas’s “Salaar” is making waves, further complicating the re-release timeline for “Sivaji,” which is now slated for 2024.
The repeated delays in the re-release of this hit film from the past are disheartening for fans who had eagerly anticipated revisiting the cinematic brilliance of “Sivaji.” For those who had already booked tickets on Book My Show for the year-end screenings, refunds will be initiated, adding a note of frustration to the prolonged wait for the nostalgic experience that “Sivaji” promises to offer.
