As we reported earlier, super star Mahesh Babu’s prestigious 25th film Maharshi completed its censor formalities and the film received U/A certificate. The Vamsi Paidipally directorial has now completed all the hurdles and it is now all set for grand release worldwide on May 9th with premiere shows in USA and few other centers on 8th.

It is learnt that, Maharshi’s runtime is locked to 2 hour 55 minutes. Although producer Dil Raju suggested to cut short the length, Vamsi Paidipally was reluctant to do so, as he felt none of the scene included in the final cut is unwanted. In fact, the director and his team already removed few portions since the initial runtime was 3 hr 15 mins.

Of late, Telugu filmmakers are making sure their films have a decent and ideal runtime of around 2 hr 20 mins to 2 hr 30 mins. In very rare cases, we get to see films with lengthy runtime more than 150 mins. 

Coming to Maharshi’s runtime, it is a big concern, given that engaging audience for such long time is a tough task. Vamsi Paidipally is pretty confident on outcome of his film. Hope, movie buffs too won’t feel bore watching a lengthy film!
