Radhe Shyam was supposed to be released for the Sankranti festival, but it was postponed due to the sudden increase in COVID-19 cases in the country.
“We have been trying our best for the past few days but considering the growing cases of Omicron variant, it looks like we will have to wait for our labour of love to get to the big screens. Radhe Shyam is a story about love vs destiny, and we are sure that your love will help us rise over these tough times together. We will see you in cinemas soon,” the makers had said in a statement.
Radhe Shyam marks the maiden collaboration between Prabhas and Pooja Hegde. The project, which sees the actor play a palm reader, is said to have been made on a budget of over Rs150 crore.
The project went on the floors in January 2020. Amidst the coronavirus pandemic, the team successfully wrapped up the first schedule in Georgia and returned to India safely.
The film has been predominantly shot in and around Europe. A special set was erected in Annapurna Studio, Hyderabad where the film’s final schedule was completed in November 2020.
