Amidst the aftermath of prolonged issues, bombings, and legal battles, the Supreme Court has pronounced its verdict, allowing the construction of the Lord Rama temple in Ayodhya. Expected to be inaugurated on January 24th, speculations arise that the temple might be completed by the end of 2023, making it a focal point in 2024.
Capitalizing on the anticipated surge of interest in Lord Rama and the temple, the team behind the film “Hanu-Man” has decided to maintain its January 12th release date. Anticipating a widespread fascination with Lord Rama in India and globally by the first week of January, the film aims to ride the wave of the Ayodhya Temple fever.
The team plans an extensive promotional campaign in Ayodhya, hoping to leverage the heightened interest in Lord Rama to attract Bollywood viewership. However, they are aware that the success of the film ultimately hinges on the director, Prashanth Varma’s ability to craft compelling content, considering that even a strong #Hindutva trend doesn’t guarantee success if the film’s substance falls short.
As the nation awaits the temple’s inauguration, the success of “Hanu-Man” remains uncertain, contingent on the alignment of its release with the prevailing cultural and religious sentiments.
