Puri Jagan, who faced a massive setback with the box office disappointment of his last film, Liger, starring Vijay Devarakonda, is now gearing up for a comeback. The talented director is busy with the sequel to his blockbuster hit, Ismart Shankar, with Ram Pothineni and Sanjay Dutt in lead roles. The shooting of the film is almost complete and the post-production has already begun.
A few months ago, the makers revealed that Ismart Shankar would be out in March 2024. But as the shoot got delayed, the release was postponed. We at OTTplay have come to know that the makers have set June 14, 2024, as the new release date of the film. An official announcement will be made soon.
The collaboration between Puri Jagan and Ram Pothineni has already created a buzz in the industry, considering their previous successful outing with Ismart Shankar, which was a mega hit at the box office and reinforced Puri Jagan's career. Now, the excitement of Ram's fans has doubled as the release date is out.
Kavya Thapar is one of the female leads and will be seen in a very interesting role, as per the news. Puri is known to showcase his heroines in a glamorous manner and if this film clicks, there will be no looking back for her in Tollywood for the young beauty who is already working in three Telugu films.
On the other hand, Ram Pothineni needs to make a comeback at any cost, as his last film, Skanda, was a disaster at the box office. Boyapati Sreenu directed this film, which had Sreeleela as the heroine. Ram will be seen in a crazy avatar in this film, which has Sanjay Dutt as the main villain. Most of the shooting of Double Ismart took place in Mumbai.
