'Saleem' postponed indefinitely
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,December 10 2009]
Sri Lakshmi Prassanna's Saleem, starring Vishnu and Illeana, is learnt to be postponed. The film was slated for a December 11 release on Friday. The film's release has not been sure since the last three days as the producers feared that the nearly 600 theatres in Telangana will be closed owing to the agitation for separate Statehood. Now that the fears got allayed after a semblance of normalcy returned to bandh-battered region, the Telugu industry sighed a heave of relief last night. Seems that their problems are far from over.
Despite, or because of the declaration of the Union Home Minister, many districts of Coastal Andhra and Rayalseema swung into agitation mode following the UPA's nod to Telangana.
With the people huddled around the television sets to watch the political developments in the State, as unravelled by 24/7 news, there is a growing impression among the producers of some of the films slated this week that films will be on the last priority of the people!
Thus, Saleem, the mega project, will not release on Friday. The final date will be announced by the makers later.
