TLDR:
Captain Miller, an ambitious project by Dhanush set in the independence era, is set to release on January 25th, a day before Republic Day. The movie is expected to have a bigger release in Telugu with the backing of Asian Multiplexes Pvt Ltd and Suresh Productions. The makers are banking on Dhanush’s popularity in Telugu States and the success of his previous film, Sir, which also had a successful paid premieres strategy. The movie also stars Telugu hero Sundeep Kishan, familiar Telugu actress Priyanka Mohan, and popular Kannada star Shiva Rajkumar. However, the Republic Day weekend is going to be dominated by dubbing films, with Siva Karthikeyan’s Ayalaan also releasing in Telugu.
Summary:
Dhanush’s ambitious project, Captain Miller, initially planned to release during Sankranthi along with Tamil and other languages, but due to intense competition, the makers decided to postpone it to January 25th, a day before Republic Day. The movie is set in the independence era and has gained the support of Asian Multiplexes Pvt Ltd and Suresh Productions, signaling a bigger release in Telugu.
To leverage Dhanush’s popularity in Telugu States, the makers have announced paid premieres for Captain Miller on the early morning of January 25th. This strategy was successfully employed for Dhanush’s previous film, Sir. The movie also features Telugu hero Sundeep Kishan, familiar Telugu actress Priyanka Mohan, and popular Kannada star Shiva Rajkumar, making it capable of drawing in a diverse audience.
However, the Republic Day weekend is going to be dominated by dubbing films, with Siva Karthikeyan’s Ayalaan also releasing in Telugu. This means Captain Miller will face tough competition at the box office.
