“Due to the sudden severe Covid rise in many parts of the country and also amid continuous news of new lockdowns, we at SPARK decided to postpone the release of D COMPANY .A new date will be announced ASAP #DCompany @SparkSagar1,” RGV wrote.

Reflecting on how the cases are affecting the film industry, trade analyst Atul Mohan told IANS: “Looking at the current situation, it is a good move.We can wait for a little long, when we have waited for so long.In the end safety is the priority.”

However, the decision of releasing “Aranya” and “Kaadan” can have adverse effects, too.

In such cases, there should not be partial or staggered release,” said Atul Mohan
