When the makers of Pawan Kalyan, Rana's Bheemla Nayak announced the film's release as of January 12, 2022 everyone got excited. But after the entry of Rajamoui's RRR into the Sankranti race slating its release on January 7, 2022 and Radhe Shyam makers entering into the fray on January 14, 2022, everyone felt that Bheemla Nayak will backoff.
Rajamouli used his clout and ensured that RRR will have a solo release across the country. Many films like Alia Bhatt's Gangubhai Kathiawadi and Mahesh Babu's Sarileru Neekevvaru opted out to the Sankranti race. Bheemla Nayak makers for long went into silent mode and this triggered speculations.
However now and then, the makers of Bheemla Nayak made it clear that the film will be released as scheduled on January 12,2022 at any cost. Rumors spread that the makers of Bheemla Nayak fear that if they opt-out and look for a solo release, they will be targeted by the AP government and even though the Tollywood biggies try to help them, there will be no looking off.
With the Bheemla Nayak makers going into silent mode, inside reports have it that the makers have decided to pull back the trigger and opt-out of the Sankranti race. Buzz is the film will now be released in the month of February.
