Robo 2.0 asked to consider release date

Super Star Rajnikanth’s ambiguous project Robo 2.0 got the heads turned across the nation and is slated for a release on 27th April. However, since other big stars Allu Arjun and Mahesh Babu’s films are also going to be released during the same time, the producers of both ‘Naa Peru Surya’ and ‘Bharat ane Nenu’ have asked Lyca productions to reconsider their release date. On their Twitter account, Bunny Vasu (Producer for ‘Naa Peru Surya’) and Danayya D.V.V (Producer of ‘Bharat Ane Nenu’) respectively wrote…

“@lyka productions (robo 2.0)..... we respect ur movie but ur changing of release dates is affecting regional movies’ release dates a lot ....me (naa peru surya naa ellu india) and dhanaya garu (bharath anu nenu) are in talks for an understanding ....i will take this issue to the producer’s council and exhibitor associations AP & Telangana ...we stand for our date commitment ...maybe this will be helpful for regional movie releases in future also …” and

“Tollywood has always respected and embraced other language cinema. But a bigger project like Robo 2.0 changing their release dates has caused confusion among producers. All the Telugu movie producers who are releasing in the months of Apr and May are in discussions to avoid any competition among ourselves. However, this sudden announcement by ROBO 2 team to release in the month of April has left all the Telugu releases to further confusion. At this juncture, we request the trade bodies to take a conscious call and arrive at an amicable solution“
