Sandeep Reddy’s ‘Animal’ starring Ranbir Kapoor is set to hit screens on December 1, generating significant anticipation with its trailer and pre-release event in Hyderabad. This hype could pave the way for a strong box office run, especially until the release of ‘Salaar.’ However, Nani’s ‘Hi Nanna,’ releasing on December 7, seems to struggle amidst this competition.
‘Hi Nanna,’ an emotional family drama led by Nani and Mrunal Thakur, garnered some positive attention from its trailer but lacks sustained buzz. The film’s promotional efforts, primarily reliant on Nani, might not be enough to contend with ‘Animal’s’ potential dominance.
The looming threat of ‘Animal’ impacting ‘Hi Nanna’s’ theatre presence for several weeks, Nani’s sole promotional efforts, and the absence of Mrunal Thakur’s active participation create worrisome factors for the film’s prospects. With just ten days until release, Nani faces pressure to devise innovative promotional strategies to uplift the film’s visibility and match the buzz surrounding it.
