No New Trailer Release Date Announced
The makers have not announced a revised release date for the trailer. The postponement came as a surprise because promotional material had indicated that the trailer would debut globally on July 24 following its exclusive showcase. Instead, the production team confirmed that the public release would happen at a later date as part of the revamped international rollout.
Several reports have linked the delay to the newly signed global distribution agreement, although online speculation has also connected the timing to ongoing events in India. The filmmakers, however, have not officially attributed the postponement to any external developments.
