Chennai:
The Tamil version of Anushka Shetty's film
Rudhramadevi will release on October 16.
Meanwhile, the Telugu and Hindi versions of
Rudhramadevi will release on October 9.
"The Tamil version will release on October 16. The film's Tamil producers Thenandal Films released Vijay-starrer
Puli last week and hence have pushed the release of
Rudhramadevi by a week as they feel both the films will eat into their box office returns," a source from the film's unit told IANS.
Thenandal Films also confirmed the news on Twitter:
Directed by Gunasekhar, the film chronicles the life of queen
Rudhramadevi, one of the last rulers of the Kakatiya dynasty.(Also Read:
