A video from the event, shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Why not Cinemas, shows the actor confidently telling the crowd that there is no change in the release plans. He acknowledged the competitive landscape but emphasized the team's commitment to the original schedule.
The actor revealed that the film's makers are meticulously managing the shooting schedule to ensure timely completion. This confirmation comes after days of industry chatter suggesting that the Buchi Babu Sana directorial might be delayed due to potential scheduling conflicts or production hurdles.
