Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja is gearing up to entertain his fans with his much-awaited film Mass Jathara, directed by Bhanu Bogavarapu and produced by Nagavamsi. With Sreeleela playing the lead opposite Ravi Teja. However, there is growing speculation that the release, initially set for August 27, may be delayed.
With only days to go before the scheduled launch, the crew is still engaged in the post-production process, and promotions have not even started. With so little time available to finish everything, it appears to become very challenging for the makers to stick to the deadline, leading to discussions about pushing the release date.
The teaser of Mass Jathara indeed reflects Ravi Teja’s hallmark high energy, but his take on a cop dishing out mass dialogues and fighting baddies has become repetitive. Such dialogues, which were once one of the biggest strengths, no longer carry the same punch, and that has led to a drop in the buzz around the film.
To add to the worry, the promotion campaign for the movie is yet to be launched, adding to the gloom. Under such circumstances, postponing the release appears to be the most logical choice for the makers at this juncture.
In addition to this, producer Nagavamsi, who recently experienced disappointment with Kingdom, is also on the receiving end in terms of releasing War 2. His expectation that the movie would fare better in Telugu than in Hindi has not been fulfilled, and this has increased his stress levels.
If Mass Jathara is actually postponed, it will have tough competition in September as many films will be hitting the theatres then. Hence, the producers are now thinking of shifting the release of the movie to October or even November.
