Makers of Maharshi had a hard time in convincing Mahesh for May release as the superstar’s track record in the month of May has been very bad thus far.
Mahesh insisted upon April release, but somehow producers convinced him for May 9th release. This date has been a super successful one for Aswini Dutt, one of the producers of Maharshi.
With the release date locked for May 9, team Maharshi heaved a sigh of relief as they have extra time to wrap it up. However, now they have another headache to deal with.
According to reports, the runtime of first edit of Maharshi has given a shock to its makers. They had brought down the four hours footage to three hours twenty minutes after a lot of careful editing.
Now they need to bring it down below the three hour mark, which is not going to be an easy task as they will have to edit out some important portions for the same.
Buzz has it that they might need to edit out a song and a fight from the final cut to make sure the runtime doesn’t exceed the 180 minute mark.
