Double ISmart is Planning to Release on Kalki’s Release Date?!
A common trend is emerging among medium-budget films as they strategically lock-in release dates amidst the uncertainties surrounding the release schedules of pan-India movies. This phenomenon is exemplified by Vijay Deverakonda’s “Family Star,” Nani’s “Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,” and Ram’s “Double iSmart,” all of which are capitalizing on the shifting landscape of the film industry.
With pan-India productions facing delays in post-production and VFX work, smaller-budget films are seizing the opportunity to secure prime release dates. This tactic mirrors past instances, such as when the release of “Salaar” was postponed, prompting smaller films to adjust their schedules accordingly.
Take, for instance, “Devara,” initially slated for an April 5th release. With speculations abound regarding its potential postponement, “Family Star” has taken the proactive step of locking in this release date. Once an official announcement regarding “Devara’s” status is made, “Family Star” will follow suit, as confirmed by producer Dil Raju.
Similarly, Nani’s “Saripodhaa Sanivaaram” has set its sights on the Independence Day release slot, eyeing a potential opening if “Pushpa 2” faces delays. Given the substantial amount of shooting still pending for the Sukumar-directed film and the looming deadline, Nani’s project stands poised to capitalize on any shift in the release schedule.

Now, the spotlight shifts to Ram’s “Double iSmart,” originally slated for a March 8th release. However, with pending work prompting a delay, the film is eyeing a May release window. The team is considering May 9th if “Kalki” faces postponement. Alternatively, if “Kalki” proceeds as planned, director Puri Jagannadh may opt for a May 23rd release.
This strategic maneuvering underscores the dynamic nature of the film industry, with smaller-budget films seizing opportunities amidst the uncertainties surrounding larger-scale productions. As the release calendar evolves, these medium-budget films aim to carve out their niche and capture the audience’s attention with well-timed releases and compelling narratives.
