As for the change in date, MAI notes that “various stakeholders” requested the delay, in order to maximize participation. The body did not exclusively mention the reason, but reports indicate that it has to do with Brahmastra’s release, which is currently going strong in the first week, collecting Rs. 225 crores worldwide.
