Unwilling to take any risks, movie producers are rapidly postponing their releases to beat the coronavirus threat.

Following the postponement of the release date of this season’s big-ticket purported blockbuster Sooryavanshi,  one now hears that Eros  International’s Hindi-Tamil-Telugu tri-lingual  Haathi Mere Saathi which was to open in the first week of April has also been postponed indefinitely.

With movie theatres closing down until March  31 in several states it is unlikely that any new film will be released in the coming weeks.
