If Srimanthudu Comes First, We'll Also Go Back - Rajamouli

"It's not that we've feared Srimanthudu or Baahubali has scared Mahesh Babu like some foolish people are asking. It's for the well being of film industry. It's so gracious of Srimanthudu to go back", says Rajamouli, responding on the discussion going on in film circles as to why Srimanthudu has dropped from the race and got postponed to a new date.

Though makers of Srimanthudu have given enough clarity that they are requested by Baahuabali makers to give breathing space for the magnum opus, critics are not ready to believe. Owing to the request, Srimanthudu got pushed to August 7th from July 17th as Baahubali is hitting screens on July 10th.

"There was never like a fight or anything between Baahubali and Srimanthudu as heard in the media. We're always discussing about placement of these two flicks quite carefully such that no one will get loss. In case if Srimanthudu has come first, then we would have opted for a postponement", Rajamouli claims. He expressed uneasiness over media repeatedly asking even Mahesh Babu if he has feared and postponed his flick. "Despite media asking such questions, Mahesh is a thorough gentleman and he hasn't lost his cool despite of these silly questions. He spoke truth", the magnum opus maker added.

Talking about how results are going to affect anyone in industry, he asserts, "If these two movies perform well at box office, or too films are bad, or one among them is good and other one is bad, finally both the films will have to enjoy or suffer. Because years of hard work and crores of rupees are at stake". We do agree Rajamouli!!
