In a last-minute development, the 9 AM shows of the much-anticipated film Karuppu starring Suriya and Trisha were cancelled just hours before its scheduled release. This decision came despite the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay having granted special permission for the early morning screenings.
Unavoidable Reasons Cited
The film's production team released a statement citing 'unavoidable reasons' for the cancellation. While the exact nature of these reasons remains undisclosed, sources suggest logistical and technical issues may have played a role. The cancellation has left many fans disappointed, especially those who had booked tickets for the early shows.
CM's Approval and Subsequent Cancellation
Earlier this week, the Tamil Nadu government, under CM Vijay's directive, had approved the 9 AM shows for Karuppu as a special concession. This move was seen as a boost for the film industry, which has been recovering from recent challenges. However, the sudden cancellation has raised questions about the coordination between the production team and theater owners.
Despite the setback, the film is still expected to release as scheduled for the remaining shows. The team has assured fans that all other screenings will proceed without interruption. Refunds for the cancelled 9 AM shows are being processed, and theater owners have been instructed to accommodate affected viewers in later shows where possible.
Karuppu is one of the most awaited films of the year, featuring Suriya and Trisha in lead roles. The film's release has been marked by high anticipation, and the cancellation of the early shows is a minor hiccup in an otherwise smooth rollout. Fans are advised to check with their local theaters for updated showtimes.
