Though Sye Raa was planned for a summer release, it now appears unlikely that the film wouldn’t be ready by then. Though there is no strict deadline, the unit is now looking at an August release. Prabhas’ Saaho too is getting late and it too could be released around the same time. If that happens, both the films could vie for the honours in August next. One can expect a clash of titans then.
But, sources in the know say that a Prabhas-Chiru faceoff is unlikely. Both Cherry and Prabhas are good friends and can actually space out their releases. One film could be released in August and the other during Dasara.
The only rider is whichever completes the work first will release in August. Both the films are mmulti-lingualand the producers have to take into account the release schedules in those languages.
