Orey Bujjiga, starring Raj Tarun, Malavika Nair and Hebah Patel, directed by Vijay Kumar Konda, is one of the films in the pipeline which is due for release this season. The film was supposed to hit the big screen on March 25 but due to nationwide lockdown, it didn’t happen. Though there were rumours that Orey Bujjiga will release on OTT platform, director Vijay Kumar Konda ruled out the rumours and gave clarification.
Talking to a leading daily about the film, director Vijay Konda said, “But we want to wait till the lockdown lifts and theatres open.” When it was pointed out that theatres may not be allowed to reopen for a long while, he asserted that he still wants to wait. “We worked nearly a year for the film and we can wait for some more time for the release. We want to release our film in theatres only,” he added further.
The director also spoke about his next film with Nikhil Gowda, grandson of former Karnataka CM Deve Gowda. Nikhil recently got married on April 17 and will now begin prep for this film. “It’s a sports film and there is action too. He even said if there had been no lockdown, Nikhil would have had to take a break for his wedding. Now that he’s married, once the lockdown is lifted, we can go directly for the shoot,” he pointed out.
