The alarming increase in Covid numbers is shaking the Film Industry. What if restrictions are imposed on theatres is the question.
Now theatres are run with hundred per cent occupancy. But what if they reduce it to 50 per cent again taking the Covid situation into account?
Big budget and Big-ticket films are in the line for the release. Some of them have already postponed the movies to the next Sankranthi in 2022.
When it comes to Tollywood, the current scenario will certainly affect the business of upcoming Telugu big releases like RRR, Acharya, and Pushpa as well. All these movies are supposed to have a big release in the other states as well.
The Mega family involvement is there in all these films. But the current lockdown and restrictions may affect those films’ collections nominally. Vakeel Saab can’t escape the situation with the film releasing in a couple of days.
There’s no way that films like Pushpa, RRR, Acharya, and a few others making way to the big screens under these restrictions. If the films get postponed, it is another headache for the people involved. The interest in the finances will go up.
Bollywood stepped back with regards to the same. With popular actors like Vicky Kaushal, Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Alia Bhatt, and others testing positive for the Coronavirus in the second wave, they are looking at keeping new releases on hold.
