Hi Nanna's strategic release in theatres

Originally slated for a global theatrical release on December 21, the film's makers strategically postponed its release to December 7 to dodge a potential clash with Prabhas' action-packed thriller Salaar, helmed by Prashanth Neel of KGF fame. This calculated move proved beneficial for Hi Nanna, ensuring an uninterrupted run at the box office without significant competition.
