The craze around Pokiri’s re-release is such that these special shows have now set a sensational world record. With a massive 135 plus shows across the twin Telugu states, Pokiri’s re-release has created history for the highest number of special shows for any Indian film. Such an unprecedented feat even after 16 years of release shows how special Pokiri is to fans and movie lovers.
