We want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts and every coverage, review and feedback has been invaluable to us, they have undoubtedly helped us reach our audience.”
The letter further reads, “As we move forward, we find ourselves at a point where we must adapt our approach and innovate. “After much deliberation, we have unanimously decided to avoid pre-release screenings for our upcoming films.” It is a bit difficult for us, but we feel this step is very important. Every audience, including our friends in the media, is a witness to our stories.
The production house clarified that although there will be no pre-release screening, they will organize a screening for the media on the first day of the film's release for timely reviews. “We understand the importance of timely reviews and their role in the success of our films. Therefore, we are happy to announce that we will be organizing press screenings for each of our films on the first day of their release. We heartily welcome all media personnel. To attend, where you will witness our latest decision”.
