Hanuman Ansh: Tales of Neem Karoli Baba will not reach Telugu screens on September 18 as planned. Distributor Prathyangira Cinemas said the Telugu version was postponed because of a delay in dubbing work, adding that a new release date would be announced soon. It has not announced one yet. (Prathyangira Cinemas statement)

The Telugu rollout had already begun to wobble: a teaser planned for September 14 was not released, a Hyderabad launch scheduled for September 15 was cancelled, and no Telugu trailer had appeared by September 16, according to India Today. A source cited in that report also said Trivikram Srinivas would no longer present the Telugu release. That remains unconfirmed; neither Trivikram nor the producers had publicly confirmed the reported change. (India Today)

The September 18 plan had originally named Trivikram as presenter and Fortune Four Cinemas as distributor for Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. (India Today)

For now, Telugu audiences have a postponed film, no replacement date and dubbing still in progress. “Soon” remains the only confirmed release window.
