Meanwhile, the director is working on the post-production, the makers, Hombale Films will soon announce the new release date of the film," the source said.

Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan fans suspected that the postponement of Salaar’s release date could be linked to Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which will release in theatres worldwide on September 7. “Well postponing Salaar is embarrassing. And that too just a day after Jawan Trailer is released. I think the last scene of Jawan Trailer whipping that belt/hunter was to tame the drunk dinosaur,” a user wrote on X formerly Twitter.

“There is a buzz that Salaar is getting postponed. Nothing official yet. Maybe it's because of jawan's unimaginable hype,” another user said. “Big Breaking - Salaar is Postponed due to Jawan unprecendent wave and is pushed to an unknown date, Official Announcement Soon. First Adipurush was postponed due to Pathaan and now SALAAR,” yet another user said.

Backed by KGF franchise and Kantara producer Hombale Films, Salaar focuses on a gang leader who tries to keep a promise he made to his dying friend and takes on other criminal gangs. The film features Prabhas, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Shruti Haasan, Jagapathi Babu, Easwari Rao, Tinnu Anand, and Madhu Guruswamy in pivotal roles.
