KGF: Chapter 2 OTT Platform And Tentative Release Date

Bengaluru, April 14 - The Yash-fronted period action drama film, "KGF: Chapter 2" is out in cinemas and opened to a thunderous response from the critics and audiences alike. This Prashanth Neel-directed is one of those movies that has a tremendous repeat value, and thus, the audiences are eager to know on which OTT platform it will lend after completing its theatrical run. Those who have watched the film in theaters would know the official digital partner of "KGF2". For those who don't know, "KGF2" will be premiered on Amazon Prime Video after its theatrical run. Though it is not yet clear when it will release on OTT, we think it will complete a minimum of 8-weeks in theaters, and only after that, it will release on Prime Video. So, from here on, the movie may be released on the streamer in the month of June. Earlier, there were reports that ZEE5 has acquired the streaming rights of the film, but that is not the case as such reports turn out to be rumors. Prime Video also holds the streaming rights of "KGF: Chapter 1", so it was quite obvious that Chapter 2 will also be grabbed by Prime Video. About This Movie This film is directed by Prashanth Neel and produced by Vijay Kirugandur and Karthik Gowda under the banner of Hombale Films. KGF Chapter 2 stars Yash, Sanjay Dutt, Raveena Tandon, Srinidhi Shetty, and Prakash Raj in key roles.

Prashanth Neel Sets His Future Projects After Yash-Fronted 'KGF: Chapter 2'

Bengaluru, April 10 - Director Prashanth Neel shot to fame with Yash-starrer "KGF: Chapter 1" in 2018. It was the film that made Neel one of the visionary directors of the country. His upcoming "KGF: Chapter 2" is arguably the most anticipated Indian movie of the year, and one of the main reasons behind the film's popularity is Neel's vision behind it. ## "KGF2" is Neel's third directorial. His previous two movies, including his debut movie "Ugramm", were huge box office hits. The KGF film introduced Neel to the Pan India phenomena and now, he is working with a couple of the biggest stars of Indian cinema. During a recent interview with a Kannada news channel, Neel opened up about his future projects after "KGF 2". ## The director said that he is committed to only two projects. As known to everyone, he is directing Prabhas in "Salaar". It is touted to be the biggest film in Neel's career as it will be darker and more violent. Produced by Hombale Films, 30% shoot of "Salaar" has already been completed, and the shoot will resume in May this year. The action thriller will debut in theaters in the summer of 2023 in multiple languages, including Hindi. ## Apart from "Salaar", director Neel has confirmed that he will be teaming up with Jr. NTR, who is currently basking on the success of "RRR" which has grossed over 1000 crores worldwide. Neel said that he has been a huge fan of Jr. NTR for the last 20 years and is excited to work with him. Their maiden collaboration, tentatively titled "NTR31", will go on floors sometime in 2023 and will most likely release in 2024. ## The aforementioned films are the only two confirmed projects the filmmaker currently has. There have been multiple reports that Neel would be joining forces with the current talk of the town, Ram Charan for a Pan India film. However, Neel hasn't discussed such a film and it seems Ram Charan's film with him is not going to happen anytime soon. Meanwhile, Neel has a project which he wants to do with Srimurli. He also said that he would love to collaborate with Yash again after the "KGF" films. ## Stay tuned...

KGF 2 Might Not Release In Iconic Raj Mandir Cinema

Jaipur, April 9 - The biggest film of the year KGF Chapter 2 will arrive in theatres on the 14th of April. The Prashant Neel directed action-thriller is the 2nd installment of the KGF series whose first part was released in 2018 to a smashing box office response.## KGF Chapter 2 starring Yash is an immensely hyped film in all the states of the country. The teaser of the film that was released a long back ago saw an unprecedented response on all the social media platforms.## KGF2 will see a grand release due to the demand for the film but Anil Thadani who is the distributor of KGF2 has refused to screen KGF2 in iconic Raj Mandir cinema as the Raj Mandir cinema had refused to screen Bachchhan Paandey whose distributor was Anil Thadani. So in all, It is an act of revenge taken by Anil Thadani but It will mean KGF2 will lose some business in that property.## That means all the shows in Raj Mandir will be given to Shahid Kapoor's much-awaited Jersey. This is a common problem for most distributors and cinema managers nowadays. The hope is that everything should be sorted out and KGF2 should have a grand clean release.## Stay tuned...

To understand the phenomena, the "KGF2" advance has already crossed "RRR" in Hindi for the opening day. The pre-sales of "KGF2" tickets went on sale on Thursday morning and within no time, it crossed "RRR" in Hindi at multiplexes. "RRR" advance booking collection for the first day in Hindi was approx. 7 crores and "KGF2" has already grossed 7.60 crores with 5 days still to go for the release. The Prashanth Neel-directed is by far seeing the best trend in advances in the post-pandemic time. The last time such advance booking trend was seen with "War" in 2019. "KGF 2" is keeping up with the "War" trend even though it may not cross it. "KGF 2" will collect over 20 crores from multiplexes before release, and it is very much on to take the biggest opening in Hindi since "War". For a dubbed Hindi movie, "Baahubali 2" holds the record for the biggest opening with 41 crores. "KGF 2" will surely reach close this figure and might even cross it. This film is directed by Prashanth Neel and produced by Vijay Kirugandur and Karthik Gowda under the banner of Hombale Films. KGF Chapter 2 stars Yash, Sanjay Dutt, Raveena Tandon, Srinidhi Shetty, and Prakash Raj in key roles. Stay tuned...
