It’s an unusual coincidence that three heroes from the Akkineni family are facing delays in their upcoming projects. Yet, the reasons behind each are quite intriguing. Let’s take a closer look.

Naga Chaitanya’s Thandel:

The release date for Thandel has not been officially announced yet. With the delay of Game Changer, fans speculated that Thandel might aim for a Christmas release, given that December has been a successful time for Naga Chaitanya in the past. However, recent reports suggest that the first copy of the film is yet to be submitted for censorship, leaving fans in suspense. The speculation has now shifted to a Sankranti release, with fans eagerly trending the possibility on social media. Despite the buzz, there has been no official response from the film's team. Meanwhile, Bunny Vaas and Allu Aravind are still deliberating the best release window. If neither Christmas nor Sankranti works out, the film might land on Republic Day in the last week of January.

Akhil’s Pan-India Aspirations:

Akhil is currently in a transformative phase as he gears up for a Pan-India project backed by UV Creations. Alongside this, he is considering another period drama directed by Murali Kishore and produced under Annapurna Studios. However, it remains uncertain which of these projects will kick off first. With his sixth film, still in the pre-production phase, fans will have to wait a bit longer for Akhil’s next big screen appearance.

Nagarjuna’s Kubera:

Nagarjuna's collaboration with Shekhar Kammula for Kubera also faces release uncertainties. Initially, the team considered a Sankranti release to align with Naga Chaitanya’s potential release. However, that plan did not materialize. Now, the focus has shifted to a possible Shivratri release, as Nagarjuna aims to space out his film’s release to avoid overlap with Thandel. With Rajinikanth’s Coolie still months away, it seems Kubera might have more flexibility in selecting its date.

The timing challenges facing this father and his two heirs have sparked much discussion in the industry. Fans and analysts alike are curious to see how these release decisions unfold and how they may impact each other. It’s a peculiar scenario, but one that has kept everyone guessing.

This unusual situation raises questions about the Akkineni family's strategy. While each project has its own hurdles, the simultaneous delays have sparked discussions about the family's approach to film releases. Will they manage to navigate these uncertainties and deliver their movies to the eagerly awaiting audience? Only time will tell.
