Vijay Deverakonda's 'Kingdom' to now release on July 4
What's the story
Vijay Deverakonda's much-anticipated film, Kingdom, has been moved to July 4.
Deverakonda himself announced the new release date on social media, sharing a picture with director Gowtam Tinnanuri on Wednesday.
The decision to postpone the release was due to the current socio-political climate of the country, which makes it difficult to hold promotional activities for the action thriller.
Film's vision
'Kingdom' makers aim for 'creative excellence and spirit'
The makers of Kingdom said they believe the decision to push the release will help them present the film with "creative excellence and spirit." They also thanked the audience for their support and enthusiasm.
The film is expected to show Deverakonda in a rugged avatar, oozing power and pride, after a major physical transformation for his role.
It was set for a May 30 release before.
