‘Barroz’ film will be released on October 2, towards the beginning of the nine-day Navratri festival this year. It marks the directorial debut of the actor, popularly known as Lalettan by the fans. The movie was initially slated for releaseon March 28, 2024. However, the film’s team decided to postpone the release citing post-production delays.
