Nandamuri Balakrishna’s NBK111 was initially targeting a grand Dussehra release, but production delays reportedly forced the makers to explore alternative dates.
December 4 emerged as a strong option, and discussions were said to be underway to lock that release window. However, the situation appears to have changed with Prabhas’ much-awaited Fauzi reportedly eyeing a December 3 release.
The arrival of a massive pan-India film has altered the equation, leaving the NBK111 team in a dilemma regarding the ideal release strategy.
As a result, fresh industry gossip suggests that the makers are now evaluating multiple options, including the lucrative Sankranthi 2027 season.
Given Balakrishna’s strong track record during festive periods, a Sankranthi release could be an attractive alternative. For now, the makers have not made any official announcement.
