The statement said there are no ongoing issues with multiplex operators. Any rumours or articles to the contrary are false and unfounded. We are all committed to collaborating to bring high-quality content to audiences in Indian cinemas. Pippa is a film that has been made for the big screen, and an official release date will be announced soon.
