The
release
of
Marakkar
Arabikadalinte
Simham,
the
Mohanlal
starring
historical
drama
has
been
postponed
again.
As
per
the
latest
updates,
the
release
of
Marakkar
is
now
rescheduled
to
August
12,
2021.
Mohanlal,
the
leading
man,
and
the
team
members
of
the
Priyadarshan
directorial
announced
the
new
release
date
through
social
media,
recently.
Interestingly,
the
grapevine
suggests
that
it
is
going
to
be
a
double
treat
for
the
Mohanlal
fans
and
Malayalam
cinema
audiences,
this
Onam
season.
As
reported
earlier,
another
highly
anticipated
project
of
the
superstar,
Aaraattu,
is
also
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
in
August
2021.
If
things
go
as
expected,
both
Marakkar
Arabikadalinte
Simham
and
Aaraattu
might
hit
the
theatres
within
a
gap
of
few
weeks.
However,
the
reports
regarding
Mohanlal's
double
release
for
Onam
2021
are
not
officially
confirmed.
The
makers
of
Aaraattu
have
not
officially
announced
the
release
date
of
the
project
yet.
So,
there
are
chances
for
the
B
Unnikrishnan
directorial
to
get
pushed
further,
to
make
way
for
the
solo
release
Marakkar
Arabikadalinte
Simham.
Meanwhile,
Antony
Perumbavoor,
the
producer
of
Marakkar
has
confirmed
that
the
magnum
opus
will
directly
hit
the
theatres,
no
matter
how
long
it
takes
for
the
release.
Thus,
it
has
been
confirmed
that
the
Priyadarshan
directorial
is
not
getting
a
simultaneous
theatre-OTT
release,
as
speculated
recently.
The
Mohanlal
fans
and
cine-goers,
who
have
been
eagerly
waiting
to
witness
the
Mohanlal-Priyadarshan
duo's
magic
on
the
big
screen,
are
extremely
pleased
with
the
decision
of
the
makers.
The
netizens
have
been
heaping
praises
on
producer
Antony
Perumbavoor
and
his
team
for
deciding
to
not
got
the
OTT
way,
despite
going
through
so
much
pressure.
Meanwhile,
it
has
also
been
confirmed
that
there
won't
be
any
theatrical
releases
from
Malayalam
cinema,
for
this
Eid.
