The upcoming romance comedy Kushi stars Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Vijay Deverekonda, both of the South. The jovial love story has been in production for a while and was getting ready to hit theatres in December. The decision to delay the film’s release has, however, been made official.
Several days ago, a number of media stories suggested that Kushi’s creators may be considering delaying the film’s premiere. Actor Vijay Deverakonda finally broke his silence and affirmed the rumours, putting an end to the rumours. He disclosed that a “bunch of issues” led to the postponement of Kushi until next year.
The Arjun Reddy actor addressed the rumours in a conversation with News18 and stated, “We have completed close to 60% of the shoot. We had hoped to release it by December, but for a variety of reasons, it has now been postponed until next year. As of right present, we plan to release in February 2023.
Kushi, directed by Shiva Nirvana, was planned for release on December 23 for the uninitiated. Along with them, Jayaram, Sachin Khedakar, Murali Sharma, Lakshmi, Ali, Rohini, Vennela Kishore, Rahul Ramakrishna, Srikanth Iyengar, and Saranya will appear in the ensemble cast of the movie.
The actor for Liger also discussed his experience working with Samantha for the second time, following their previous cooperation on Mahanati, as their talk went on. “It was a fantastic pleasure to be in this movie”, according to Deverakonda. “When I first saw Samantha on the big screen, I believe I was a graduate student.” he added.
