Naga Chaitanya's Premam postponed

Fans of actor Naga Chaitanya, who have been patiently waiting for the release of his film Premam will now have to wait for a little longer. The film that was supposed to release on September 9, will now release during Dasara in October.

However, fans need not be disappointed, as the filmmakers plan to release a video of a song from the film. “We are planning to release a song on August 29, on Nagarjuna, Chaitanya’s father’s birthday,” says producer Naga Vamsi. He also adds that the team plans to host the audio launch on September 20, the birthday of Akkineni Nageswara Rao, Chaitanya’s grandfather.

Though he didn’t confirm the reason behind postponing the film, Vamsi says that the film is a Dasara gift for the fans. However, sources reveal that the producer was irked with Chaitanya’s other film, Sahasam Swasaga Sagipo (SSS), which was also going to release on September 9.

Apparently, Chaitanya spoke to the producer of SSS, Gautham Menon, about the film and then decided to postpone the release date of Premam.

Shruti Haasan, Anupama Parameswaran and Madonna Sebastian play the three female leads opposite Chaitanya in the film. Sources add that Venkatesh and Nagarjuna are playing cameos in the film.
