The much awaited announcement is finally here. The makers of RR have announced that the film will be releasing in theatres on the 7th of January next year. The makers have also unveiled a new poster of the film to publicize the release date. This makes it clear that RRR will be arriving in theatres just ahead of the lucrative Sankranthi season which had already proved to be a lucrative one for Telugu cinema. However, not everyone is pleased with RRR's release date announcement. Incidentally, the fans and followers of Prabhas, Pawan Kalyan, and Mahesh Babu are breathing fire on Rajamouli for locking early Sankranthi release for the film. They are not pleased with Rajamouli for bringing RRR to the Sankranthi race while the release window was already jam packed with biggies like Sarkaru Vaari Paata, Radhe Shyam, and Bheemla Nayak.
It is known that Bheemla Nayak, Sarakaru Vaari Paata, and Radhe Shyam were announced for theatrical release on 12th, 13th, and 14th January respectively. Everyone thought that the triangular box office clash between these three films will be interesting to watch. But now that RRR has joined the Sankranthi race, the equation changes completely. RRR is now the big fish and the film will enjoy the lions share of the box office prospects and also it will lock the majority of the cinema halls in the twin Telugu states and as well as the overseas market. If the film garners a unanimously positive response, it will leave little scope for other biggies - Bheemla Nayak, Radhe Shyam, and Sarkaru Vaari Paata. Now, the fans and followers of Prabhas, Pawan Kalyan, and Mahesh Babu are displeased with RRR for eating into the box office prospects of the films featuring their favorite actors.
Nevertheless, next Sankranthi release window is already promising to be an intriguing one as we will have three biggies locking horns with each other at the box office. While RRR will start as the overwhelming favorite to get off to a thunderous start at the box office, others like Bheemla Nayak, Radhe Shyam, and Bheemla Nayak might have to fight for the second spot at the box office. Also, there is a chance that Bheemla Nayak and Sarkaru Vaari Paata might get postponed which is appearing to be likely now.
