Vijay Devarakonda’s ‘Kingdom’ rescheduled to July 4 amid India-Pakistan tensions

Amid the rising conflict between India and Pakistan, the makers of Vijay Devarakonda’s upcoming film Kingdom have decided to delay its release.

The makers of Kingdom issued an official statement announcing the rescheduling of the film’s release. “We wish to inform that the release of our film Kingdom, originally set for May 30 has been rescheduled to July 4. WE explored every possibility to stick to the original date. But recent unforeseen events in the country and the current atmosphere have made it difficult for us to move forward with promotions or celebrations.

We believe this decision will help us present Kingdom in the best possible way with the creative excellence and spirit it deserves. We truly value your support and hope to receive your love when we meet you at cinemas on July 4.

We’re grateful to Dil Raju Garu and Nithin Garu for their understanding and support in making this change possible.

Jai Hind! – the statement read.

In Kingdom, Vijay Deverakonda will be seen in a fierce and never-seen-before avatar and the teaser of his highly-anticipated movie was well received by the audience. The teaser garnered massive attention by the audience. With excitement around the film reaching new heights everyday, the makers have kept audiences hooked with constant updates.

Meanwhile, the makers scripted history by releasing a fully AI-designed thematic video of Kingdom. From a goosebumps-worthy BGM, the video is a visual treat, with enthralling imagery. With Kingdom embracing AI, it has become the first Indian film whose content is entirely artificial intelligence-driven.

Set against a backdrop of relentless warfare and turmoil, the film showcases Vijay Devarakonda in a powerful and rugged avatar, embodying a leader poised to rise from the shadows of betrayal. The film's multilingual appeal is enhanced by voiceovers from prominent actors: Jr NTR for the Telugu version, Suriya for Tamil and Ranbir Kapoor for Hindi. This collaboration has amplified anticipation across diverse audiences.

With its compelling storyline, stellar cast, and the buzz generated by the teaser, the film is expected to make a significant impact upon its release. Directed by Gowtham Tinnanuri, Kingdom stars Vijay Devarakonda and Bhagyashri Borse in lead roles and is scheduled to release on July 4.
