around early march 2026, roughly two months after its january release.The decision for an extended theatrical window serves a few purposes:
- šæ Longer presence in cinemas gives the film more time to reach audiences who prefer watching on the big screen.
- š Optimizes boxāoffice earnings, especially during the Pongal holiday period and subsequent weeks.
- šŗ Maintains viewer interest before it becomes available online.
