Never-Ending Release Date Woos For ‘Miss Shetty, Mr Polishetty’

Versatile actress Anushka Shetty is widely regarded as the torchbearer of female-centric movies in Tollywood. After taking a break, she is all set to make her comeback with the comic caper titled “Ms. Shetty Mr. Polishetty,” which also features the talented actor Naveen Polishetty. However, the release of the film has hit a few roadblocks, and the team is yet to finalize a date, considering either August 25 or September 15.

The film’s producers are currently engaged in discussions with potential buyers, but the process is taking longer than expected. Unlike in the past, Anushka’s movies are not selling like hot cakes, and it is taking some time to clinch distribution deals.

One of the factors contributing to the delay in sealing distribution deals is the change in Anushka’s on-screen image. Anushka has earned immense popularity and admiration for her remarkable performances in films like “Baahubali 2,” “Rudramadevi,” and “Bhagmathee.” But, her return in a softer and lighter role has not generated the expected hype around the film.

The sources say that the makers held a couple of special screenings for industry insiders and audiences, and they remain hopeful about the film’s prospects.

While the release date remains uncertain, the team behind “Ms Shetty Mr Shetty” is working hard to ensure that the film reaches a wide audience and strikes a chord with moviegoers.
