Akshay Kumar’s coming’Prithviraj’that was listed to release on January 21 has been heldup due to Omicron and the steep rise in Covid cases in India A source said”When you have a sureshot blockbuster at hand that will appeal to cult across the country, you can not go with such a huge product.’Prithviraj’will largely prop in bringing people back to the theaters and it can not be released at a time when it will not fulfill this purpose. Business wise too it does not make sense to compromise a film that will troll in the moolah at the box- office.
“It’s a no-brainer to defer the film and hand Omicron and the Covid-19 script before taking a call on the coming release date of the film The swell in cases has redounded in strict regulations across India and some requests like New Delhi also decided to shut theatres YRF was staying till the last nanosecond to see if the situation in India and overseas improves but the pace with which coronavirus cases are accelerating, it forced their hand to hold on to the biggest title The source added”Everyone is looking at’Prithviraj’to take the box- office by storm and set some new mileposts in thepost-pandemic period and YRF is committed to this belief. They will put this design out when it can set the box- office on fire ‘Prithviraj’, directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi, will also mark the debut of former Miss World Manushi Chhillar.
