Star-Studded Odia Film Mantra Muugdha to Release Later Than Planned
Filmmaker Anupam Patnaik Delays Mantra Muugdha for VFX and Scale
Bhubaneswar— The release of the highly anticipated Odia film Mantra Muugdha has been postponed, filmmaker Anupam Patnaik confirmed Monday. Originally scheduled for January, the film will take additional time to complete its extensive visual effects and ensure a cinematic scale that meets audience expectations.
The movie features a star-studded cast including Suryamayee Mohapatra, Bhoomika Dash, Dipanwit Das Mohapatra, Sanoj Kumar, Sarthak Bharadwaj, Manmay Dey and others.
Patnaik emphasized that the delay is intended to maintain high standards. “After Pratikshya, Gangs of Puri, and Karma, we feel a strong responsibility to raise the bar for Odia cinema rather than rush the process,” he said.
The filmmaker added that the new release date will be announced soon, promising viewers a cinematic experience filled with “thrills, magic, and unforgettable moments.”
Fans of the film will have to wait a little longer, but can expect a visually stunning and engaging story from one of Odia cinema’s most ambitious projects.
