The Sankranti festival brought much attention to Dil Raju, who runs a top production and distribution company. The release of his film, Varasudu, was delayed due to competition, but adjustments are normal in the industry. In a recent interview, Dil Raju stated that he was targeted by some who claimed to be working for the welfare of the industry.
However, he now faces a new problem at the end of next month. He is releasing the Telugu version of Ponniyin Selvan 2, which is set to release on April 28, the same day as Akhil's Agent. Akkineni's fans are demanding a significant number of theaters for the film, but allocating screens for PS2 is also necessary. Fans want to give Agent top screens in every town to attract audiences.
However, there is not much buzz surrounding PS2, as the first part did not perform well, falling below the break-even point. This could potentially hurt the opening and revenue of Agent, especially since PS2 is expected to do well in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Producer Anil Sunkara and director Surender Reddy have yet to start promotions for Agent, and Akhil is currently occupied with the Celebrity Cricket League.
If PS2 affects the release of Agent in Telugu, it could be a problem for Dil Raju, especially with the release of Sakuntalam, which he is producing and releasing, just two weeks before that.
