Pushpa 2 The Rule: The highly anticipated release of Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, is just two days away, and fans are buzzing with excitement. However, there’s a slight hiccup in the release plans: the 3D version of the film will not be hitting screens this week. According to reports, the 3D prints are not ready, and the release of this version has been postponed to next Friday, December 13, 2024.
Despite the delay in the 3D release, the 2D version will release on schedule on December 5 across the country and globally in multiple languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Bengali, and Malayalam.
Pushpa 2 The Rule 3D Delay: What Went Wrong?
Industry sources revealed that the makers of Pushpa 2 were forced to delay the release of the 3D version due to incomplete production of the 3D prints. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The 3D version is not yet ready. Hence, the makers decided to forgo the release of the film in 3D this week. As a result, the film will only play in 2D versions on December 5.”
The delay comes as a surprise to both fans and theater operators, many of whom had prepared for 3D screenings. “We were all set to play certain shows of Pushpa 2 in 3D,” a multiplex manager shared. “But today, we were informed about the delayed 3D release. Those shows will now be played in 2D instead.”
Impact on Ticket Prices and Viewer Experience
Tickets for 3D screenings were priced slightly higher due to the additional cost of 3D glasses. With the postponement, multiplexes will need to issue refunds for the price difference. This has caused some inconvenience for viewers who had booked tickets anticipating a 3D experience.
Despite this, excitement around the film remains high, as fans gear up for the 2D release this week. The IMAX 2D format will also be available for those seeking a grander viewing experience.
Star-Studded Cast and Multiple Languages
Pushpa 2 stars Allu Arjun, who recently won the National Award for Best Actor, alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil in pivotal roles. The film is the sequel to the 2021 blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise and continues the intense narrative of Pushpa Raj’s journey.
To cater to the film’s vast fanbase, it will release in six languages:
- Telugu
- Hindi
- Tamil
- Kannada
- Bengali
- Malayalam
New Release Date for 3D Version
Fans eager to experience the film in 3D will have to wait until December 13, 2024. By then, the 3D prints are expected to be finalized and distributed to theaters worldwide.
With the delay, the makers aim to ensure that the 3D version meets the high expectations of audiences. The additional time is being used to enhance the viewing experience, making the wait worthwhile for fans.
