Mahesh Babu is a Superstar and is the undisputed star of TFI. He is one star who is clear in his picks and prompt in his releases. Even his upcoming Srimanthudu was also initially scheduled to release on July 17 but was later postponed to August 7.
There is a speculation that the film was postponed fearing Baahubali but Mahesh has ruled down such speculations and opened up on the postponement issue. He stated that Baahubali is a film that we need to be proud of. He also added that Srimanthudu was postponed just to support Baahubali and felicitate more theatres and avoid split of collections. Mahesh asserted that they are very confident over Srimanthudu and will release the film on the promised date.
Hope and wish this word from Mahesh will put a full stop to these rumors.
