Hanuman, directed by Prasanth Varma, has a very good buzz among the audience. The movie is slated for release on 12th January 2024, the day on which Mahesh Babu’s Guntur Kaaram is also releasing. At the trailer launch event of HanuMan, director Prasanth Varma opened up about the clash.
Prasanth Varma said, “We were the first to announce the release date. We thought no film was scheduled for release on 12th January. So we made agreements with theatres in the north belt as per the release date. Hence, we don’t have a choice to defer the release. Mahesh Babu Garu is a big star, and I will watch Guntur Kaaram on the first day.”
Prasanth Varma opines that his film isn’t frontloaded, and their team isn’t expecting huge box office numbers in the first three days. He added that HanuMan would have a solid long run and that there would be repeat audience.
