While 2021 has been a tough period for films in general, there were some films that defied the conditions and scored massive hits. Apart from Pushpa, none of these films were pan-India releases. However, the situation in 2022 is going to be different.
RRR will release on January 7th while Radhe Shyam will release on January 14th. Both these films are much-awaited pan-India films. However, along with the anticipation, there is also a fear that has engulfed fans as well as the makers. The fear of rising cases has created confusion in trade circles.
Section 144 has been imposed in Mumbai starting from today till January 7, 2022, in view of rising Covid cases. Along with this, other states such as Karnataka and Delhi have also imposed restrictions on public gatherings and are in the process of limiting occupancies.
With such restrictions being set up at most places, the release of these films and opening collections of these pan-India projects have come under huge scanner.
Earlier this month, Telangana’s Director of Public Health DR GS Rao stated that from January 15th onwards we will see an influx of new Covid cases. These cases will see a peak in February. This has made situation further worrisome for the filmmakers.
