Makers of Mahesh Babu's Maharshi proudly announced in 2018 that the film would be released on April 5th 2019. However producer Dil Raju announced at the start of 2019 that the film's release had been pushed back to April 25.
During that time, rumors spread that Vamsi Paidipally was completing the film shoot at a snail's pace and he had been reshooting scenes repeatedly. Finally the makers announced that the film will hit the screens on May 9th.
However, Maharshi shoot is not yet completed. Two more songs are left over. Now, reports are coming out that Maharshi is delayed not due to Vamsi Paidipally but Mahesh Babu.
Mahesh has been flying now and then for commercial shoots taking breaks from Maharshi shoots and this is resulting in Maharshi delay. This is surprising as Mahesh is known for his hard work and commitment and is known as a directors' actor.
