Pokiri To Have A Grand Re Release

Superstar Krishna’s birth anniversary brought big news for Mahesh Babu fans. The 4K version of the 2006 blockbuster Pokiri will release in theatres this August. The film is directed by Puri Jagannath and changed mass films in Telugu cinema. It has been 20 years since Pokiri first came to theatres. The new 4K print will give fans a fresh big screen experience with better sound and picture.

Pokiri first came back in 4K with special shows on August 9, 2022 for Mahesh Babu’s birthday. That event started the 4K re-release trend in Tollywood. Fans filled theatres to see the Pandu character and famous scenes again. Last year Khaleja 4K did good business on Krishna’s birth anniversary. Earlier this year Athadu 4K also earned well even without a special day. These films showed that old hits can still pull huge crowds.

Mahesh Babu holds the top record for re-release collections with Murari. That film made Rs 9 crore gross and set a new opening record for old films. Now Pokiri has a bigger fan base and a strong cult status. Many feel the 4K re-release will beat the Murari number and set a new record. The 4K trend is now very popular in Telugu cinema. Fans celebrate old films on birthdays and special days. It also helps new viewers see classic films in theatres.

The Pokiri re-release is planned on a large scale with many screens across Telugu states. Fans are already planning big celebrations and cutouts. The film’s songs and action scenes are still loved today. With clear 4K visuals, the film will feel new to the young crowd. Trade experts say Pokiri can open to full houses and run well for many days.
