Nagarjuna On Theatrical Release For Bollywood Films, 'Give The Audience Akshay Kumar And Salman Khan And See What Happens' - EXCLUSIVE
Just when movie theatres across India were in the throes of despair, thanks to lockdown due to the COVID pandemic, the  Southern superstars have shown the way to salvation. First Tamil superstar Vijay with Master followed by Ravi Tejaa in the Telugu blockbuster  Crack and Vijay Sethupathi in the Telugu film Uppena.

This week another Tamil star Vishal Krishna releases his new film Chakra in theatres. Says  Vishal, “The big success of Master, Crack and Uppeni are very encouraging for the movie-theatre business. I am confident my  Chakra will also be liked by movie-going audiences. Give them what they like. Make  it large, They will come.”

Nagarjuna who releases his  Wild Dog in theatres in  April says the trick is to give the audience the big-screen experience. “So far the films released after the lockdown in Hindi have not done well because exhibitors have not given the audience anything tempting. Give them Akshay  Kumar and  Salman Khan and see what happens. Here in the South each of us  (superstars)  has his own following. Our fans are deeply mortified if we release our films on the OTT. They want to see us on the  big screen.”

In the meanwhile, Mohanlal’s fans are deeply disappointed by the OTT release of his new film Drishyam  2.
