RGV and Nagarjuna's upcoming film 'Officer's release postponed due to technical glitches

Ram Gopal Varma and

Nagarjuna

reunited after 25 years for their upcoming film ‘

Officer

’, and fans have been nothing less than excited to watch the film.

After the trailer released, even Amitabh Bachchan seemed to have been taken by it as he took to social media and wrote, “The trailer of

RGV

film .. starring dear friend Nag, ..” (sic) To this Nagarjuna responded with, “Thank you dear Amitji. We can’t wait to show you the film.” (sic) RGV too added in his two cents and wrote, “Sarkar @iamnagarjuna and me are teaming up after 25 years ..As you know my debut film SHIVA was with him. #Officer has some very intense action sequences.” (sic) and added, “Same here Sarkar ..Me and Nag will arrange a Show of #Officer for u.” (sic)

However, fans and even Amitabh Bachchan will have to wait a bit longer to catch the film that also stars Myra Sareen as the film’s release has been postponed due to ‘technical’ reasons. RGV took to his social media and wrote, “Since many technical elements of #Officer with regard to the best viewing experience are taking much longer than initially planned, we decided to postpone @iamnagarjuna’s Officer release from 25 th May to 1st June” (sic)

Previously, RGV even faced legal issues pertaining to the film. Reports state that YT Entertainment had sued the controversial filmmaker for not paying dues to the tune of Rs 1.06 Cr before the release of the film. While on May 7, the filmmaker who was supposed to be present at the hearing at Bombay HC didn’t turn up and was represented by a co-producer who told the court that RGV would pay the amount either on or before May 18, or before the film’s release.

Conflicting reports state that he eventually attended the court hearing and paid the firm its dues, settling the matter in court when the judge passed an order to restrain the release of the film. Some other reports state that RGV is yet to attend a court hearing on June 7 for this matter to be cleared. While the filmmaker claims the film will be released on June 1, it remains to be seen if it really will.
