Gangubai Kathiawadi Vs RRR: Alia Bhatt’s Sanjay Leela Bhansali Directorial To Clash With SS Rajamouli’s Magnum Opus?

All locks are being opened finally and the much-awaited lock that waited for a key was the cinemas that have been out of business ever since the fear of Covid-19 set in. Now that CMO Maharashtra Uddhav Thackeray announced the unlock of theatres from October 22 2021, big-ticket films have already reserved a spot, and looks like just a week into the year, Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi will be colliding with SS Rajmouli directorial RRR starring Jr. Ntr and Ram Charan. An official announcement is however awaited by the team of RRR regarding the release date. If rumors were to be believed then RRR will be releasing on January 7 2022 clashing with Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi.

The last official statement of the makers said that the post-production of the film is nearly done and will have the movie ready by October 21. The postpone has been confirmed but a new date arrival will, however, take its own time. The team also shared that the earliest possible date will be up and running once the cinemas are opened officially.

Post production nearly done to have #RRRMovie ready by October’21.
But as known to many, we are postponing the release but cannot announce a new date with theatres indefinitely closed.
We will release at the earliest possible date when the world cinema markets are up and running.

The makers have also reportedly spent a ginormous amount of Rs. 400 Crores for the making of the film. Reportedly the film will be releasing on January 7 2022 which will be clashing with Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi. Another great coincidence is that if this date is official then Alia will be having two major releases just at the start of 2022. If the film RRR releases a week later it will be competing with three biggies being Bheemla Nayak, Sarkaru vaari and Radhe Shyam which are releasing on January 12, 13, and 14 respectively.
