Pushpa 2’s release delay hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, but strong reports indicate that a change in the date is likely due to remaining work. The film isn’t aiming for a release anytime soon.
Reports suggest that Pushpa 2 might only hit screens by December. After missing the 15th, there are two potential dates being considered: December 5th and December 20th.
December 5th is ideal for international markets, especially with a premiere on December 4th allowing a solid week in the USA before major releases. It also allows for plenty of premium large format (PLF) screenings.
On the other hand, December 20th is favorable in India due to Christmas and New Year holidays. However, it’s not good for the USA market as it coincides with the release of three big films, potentially blocking many theaters and causing a loss estimated at $5-6 million. There would be no PLF or IMAX showings on this date.
The Pushpa 2 team’s planning strategy will determine the next steps, while fans are eager for an earlier release date to be decided.
