Lal Salaam on a sharing basis in Telugu States. Following the resounding success of 'Jailer,' Tamil superstar Rajinikanth is set to captivate Telugu audiences in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana once again with his upcoming film, 'Lal Salaam.' This highly anticipated sports action drama is slated for a theatrical release on February 9, marking it as one of the most awaited films of the year.
According to sources, 'Lal Salaam' will predominantly have a shared release in the two Telugu states. Rajinikanth, known for his charismatic presence, will be making a cameo appearance as Moideen Bhai in this enthralling entertainer. The decision for a shared release is attributed to the fact that the film revolves around cricket and features Rajinikanth in a cameo role, which differs from his usual lead roles.
Rajinikanth's return to Andhra Pradesh and Telangana comes on the heels of the remarkable success of 'Jailer,' which surpassed Rs 30 crores in net collections, setting a new record for dubbed movies. The success of 'Jailer' has undoubtedly heightened the anticipation for 'Lal Salaam' among Telugu distributors, creating substantial buzz around the film.
Given the demand for the film and the extravagant prices set by Tamil producers, Telugu distributors are opting for a shared release model instead of committing to hefty advances. Directed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth, 'Lal Salaam' boasts a musical score by the acclaimed AR Rahman. The film features Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth as local cricket rivals, uncovering the political undertones that tarnish the 'gentleman's game.' With an intriguing plot and the involvement of industry heavyweights, 'Lal Salaam' is poised to be a noteworthy addition to the cinematic landscape.
