Finally, the announcement which has been doing rounds unofficially since the last few days has been out officially. Ravi Teja starrer 'Eagle' is out of Sankranthi Race. Since few days, makers are doing promotions, but rumours were rife that it will not make to Sankranthi release. At last after the press meet if Industry bigwigs, Eagle has been officially postponed, and the Film Chamber promised it the best and solo release date.
With the postponement of Eagle, now Sankranthi releases are reduced to Four. While Guntur Kaaram and HanuMan are arriving on the same day, 12 January, Saindhav is releasing on 13 January and Naa Saami Ranga on 14 January. Still, there is a lot of scarcity for theatres but withdrawal of Eagle from the race gives a little room for other films.
Makers today officially announced for the sake of Industry and keeping best interests in mind, Eagle is now releasing on 9th February in Telugu, and Hindi languages. They said that only the date is changed but not the Massy mark of Mass Maharaj as Eagle. They tweeted new release date poster along with text,
