A day following filmmaker Nagashekar's enthusiastic announcement regarding the US release of his film Sanju Weds Geetha 2, his plans faced a temporary setback. On January 9, reports surfaced indicating that the film, featuring Srinagar Kitty and Rachita Ram, would not premiere on January 10; however, the reasons for this delay remained unspecified at that time.
Upon contacting the public relations team, we were informed that the film's release had been temporarily halted, with Nagashekar and Kitty working to resolve the situation. Initially, there was optimism for a release on January 10; however, this did not materialize. A source later revealed that the stay order originated from a producer based in Hyderabad, who was seeking the repayment of dues amounting to Rs 7 crore.
Chalavadi Kumar, the producer of Sanju Weds Geetha 2, travelled to Hyderabad and successfully had the stay lifted on January 10. By that time, the film's release had already been delayed, and a new release date was yet to be announced. In a video statement made outside the Hyderabad city civil court, Chalavadi Kumar clarified that the issue arose due to the underperformance of Nagashekar’s previous directorial effort, the Telugu remake of Love Mocktail, titled Gurthunda Seethakalam.
Rama Rao Chintapalli, one of the producers of Gurthunda Seethakalam, was assured that Nagashekar would create another film for his production company to offset the losses, or that the director would provide compensation in the future. While this explanation was given for the injunction order, Chalavadi Kumar’s legal representative contended that the action was taken with malicious intent to obstruct the release of a Kannada film coinciding with the debut of a significant Telugu movie. Following the postponement, the screens originally allocated for Sanju Weds Geetha 2 were reassigned to this Telugu film.
With the legal hurdles cleared, the team will now announce a new release date on January 11. A love story, Sanju Weds Geetha 2, which is said to be based on true events, also explores the sericulture industry.
