Curious co-incidence: ‘RRR’, ‘Pushpa’, ‘Acharya’, perhaps ‘Sarkaru Vaari Paata’ too

The 13th is going to be a special number this year. It all began with ‘Master’, the biggest south Indian release so far this year releasing on January 13. In Tamil and Telugu, it has been declared a blockbuster. Incidentally, three other big-ticket movies (two of them pan-India projects) have locked their release on the same date in different months of the year.

Rajamouli-Jr NTR-Ram Charan’s ‘RRR’ will arrive on October 13. Soon after the announcement, the makers of Allu Arjun’s ‘Pushpa’ said that their film, which is directed by Sukumar, will release on August 13. 

And, today, actor-producer Ram Charan revealed that ‘Acharya’ will hit the screens on May 13. 

Probably, one more big-ticket film will also release on the same date, in January 2022. Mahesh Babu’s ‘Sarkaru Vaari Paata’ is set for a Sankranthi release.
