'Pushpa 2' 3D version unlikely to get released: Report
What's the story
The much-awaited 3D version of Pushpa 2: The Rule is still to grace the screens, even as the film enters its second week of release.
Earlier, producers intended to release this format on Friday (December 13). However, a source told Times Now that they have delayed it for another three-four weeks "to ensure that audiences' interest would remain alive once the 2D version has run its course."

However, another source was not very sure about the release of the 3D version.
"I am not very sure that the 3D version will be released. I think the team is divided on this," the source told the aforementioned portal.
This indicates that there may be some internal disagreements in the production team on whether to go ahead with a 3D release for Pushpa 2.

Roshan Singh, a leading exhibitor from Bihar, has spoken in favor of the 3D release.
He reasoned that the huge money spent on converting the film from 2D to 3D shouldn't go to waste.
Singh emphasized that states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh have a huge audience for the 3D format, which could make it a profitable venture.
