RJ Balaji’s Assurance Amidst Pre-Release Turmoil
Karuppu, directed by RJ Balaji and also starring Trisha Krishnan , is produced by SR Prabhu and SR Prakash Babu under their production banner, Dream Warrior Pictures.
Trouble ahead of Karuppu release?
On Wednesday morning, Vasu Cinemas posted, “Sorry Anbaana fans ! Unable to screen #Karuppu this time. Our hearty wishes to our dearest RJ Balaji on his directorial debut, our south Queen Trisha mam and last but not least Nadippin Nayagan SURIYA sir. May the film smash the boxoffice . Looking forward.”
Theatre Owners & Production House React
The official X account of Dream Warrior Pictures, the banner which has helmed the film, has not responded to these remarks on their account, so far.
A day ago, they had released a statement to thank Tamil Nadu CM Vijay for granting permission to screen the first day first show of Karuppu at 9 AM. Meanwhile, RJ Balaji had talked about what fans can expect from Karuppu at a promotional event and said on stage, “I don’t want to overpromise and underdeliver. It is a very entertaining, mass masala film with Suriya sir we always love. Ayan, Singam… all the films that we have seen of him… so that is the Suriya sir I wanted to show in this film. The film is made for people of Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra… It is not made for people on social media. It is made for those who celebrate cinema in the darkness of cinema halls, not for those who do postmortems on social media. Not for them. This is for all of us to celebrate.”
Despite the pre-release booking hurdles, RJ Balaji’s firm assurance aims to calm anxious fans. The industry watches closely to see if ‘Karuppu’ can overcome these initial challenges and deliver the mass masala entertainment promised by its director.
