Social media was ablaze on June 12 with speculations that 'Pushpa 2' had been delayed by a few months. According to reports, Sukumar plans to finish the filming by July, although there may still be one month remaining to shoot. Although an official announcement is still pending, it appears that distributors in trade circles have been notified of the decision.
Since 'Pushpa 2' was scheduled to release on August 15, other films in a variety of industries decided to postpone their releases to avoid conflict with the Allu Arjun starrer film.
On June 12, trade analyst Taran Adarsh, on his X (formerly Twitter) account, mentioned that Akshay Kumar's 'Khel Khel Mein' will now arrive in theatres on August 15.

In a similar vein, Pa Ranjith's Chiyaan Vikram film ‘Thangalaan’ might benefit from the current situation. The actor posted a picture of himself from ‘Thangalaan’ along with a caption, "Exciting times!! #Thangalaan (sic)." This suggests that the makers are finalizing the release date.
