RRR (Rise, Roar, and Revolt) made its theatrical premiere on March 25, 2022, and received a massive response from audiences worldwide. It not only grossed a remarkable collection but also became the highest-grossing Indian film globally in 2022. Recently, RRR’s official distributor, Pen Studios, teased its rerelease.
Set against the backdrop of the British Raj, the film follows the story of two fictional Indian revolutionaries fighting against the British. Directed by S.S. Rajamouli, it features N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and Ram Charan in the lead roles. Additionally, Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani, Ray Stevenson, and others were seen in supporting roles.
Made on a hefty budget, RRR opened with around $28.7 million worldwide on its first day, marking the highest opening day for an Indian film. It earned approximately $170 million worldwide during its theatrical run.
Will Jr. NTR & Ram Charan’s RRR be rereleased in theatres?
Recently, the official film distributor of RRR took to X (formerly Twitter) and engaged the audience by asking, “Guysssss Full form of #RRR?. After active participation from the audience, the studio later replied, “RRR – RE – RELEASE.” This indicates that makers are planning for its rerelease in theaters. However, the official date has not been announced yet.
For those unaware, Pen Studios has acquired RRR’s theatrical rights for the North Indian Market, including all languages. Additionally, the company holds electronic, digital, and satellite rights for Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada languages.
Fan speculation suggests that RRR might be scheduled for rerelease on May 20, coinciding with Jr. NTR’s birthday. Meanwhile, Jr. NTR is gearing up for his upcoming film, Devara: Part 1, set to be released in October 2024.
It will be intriguing to see when the makers reveal the details of the rerelease. At the same, it will matter whether the RRR will once again break all records.
