Sharwa’s period action drama Bhogi is facing a delay, with the makers yet to secure the necessary censor clearance for its theatrical release. The Sampath Nandi directorial, which was scheduled to hit screens on November 12, will now arrive at a later date. The delay has also put the trailer launch and pre-release event on hold.
The film’s censor issue has now been referred to the Censor Revising Committee in an effort to resolve it. The makers are expected to announce a revised release date once the formalities are completed and the film receives clearance.
Bhogi is set in the early 1960s along the Maharashtra-Adilabad border. Sharwa underwent a rugged makeover for his character, while director Sampath Nandi has made the film on a large scale. Producer KK Radha Mohan has backed the project.
The makers have already released a teaser featuring Sharwa in a rustic look. The two songs released so far reflect the rural setting and cultural elements of Telangana. The promotional campaign is expected to resume once the film receives censor clearance.
