The rollercoaster journey of Family Star began with headlines announcing its postponement from the originally slated Sankranthi release in January 2024. It has been reported that the makers, racing against time to wrap up the shoot, were met with unexpected challenges, leading to the decision to push back the release.
However, the latest buzz is that Family Star has now locked in a new release date — April 5, 2024.
What makes the April 5 release date even more intriguing is the clash with Jr. NTR’s Devara. However, recent reports suggest the highly anticipated movie might postpone its release date, attributed to VFX.
A source revealed, “Devara is a high on VFX film and the output is taking longer than expected. The makers are clear to not compromise on the visuals as the stakes are high. NTR Jr. is also very cautious about next after RRR and wants to deliver a big cinematic experience. The makers are now looking to arrive in the second half of 2024.”
Adding to the delay, about 20 days of shoot remain, with a slight setback due to Saif Ali Khan’s injury, who plays a pivotal antagonist role in Devara. Moreover, the makers, determined to maintain the film’s visual integrity, are opting for a cautious approach, ensuring they don’t compromise on the promised cinematic brilliance.
An official confirmation regarding the clash is yet to be made by the makers. However, the industry is abuzz with the excitement of witnessing these two much-anticipated films, i.e., Family Star and Devara, go head-to-head at the box office.
