Dulquer Salmaan's I'm Game Postponed to September for Wider Pan-India Release
Dulquer Salmaan's Malayalam action thriller I'm Game, initially set for an August 20, 2026 release during Onam, has been postponed to September 3. The delay aims to enable a wider pan-India theatrical release across five languages: Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada. The film, directed by Nahas Hidhayath, follows Dan John, a gambler using an algorithm whose system unravels. The postponement avoids a box-office clash with other Onam releases like Khalifa and Bethlehem Kudumba Unit.
