Mumbai: Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s period film ‘Padmavati’ is finally set to release on January 25. The mega budget film will see box office fight with Akshay Kumar’s ‘PadMan’. To avoid the clash with these two big films, the makers of 'Aiyaary' have postponed the release of their film to February 9, 2018.
Neeraj Pandey's film starring Manoj Bajpayee, Sidharth Malhotra and Rakul Preet Singh was initially meant to hit theatres on January 26th, a day after R Balki's film.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter to share the news, " It's Official! Aiyaary shifted to 9th February 2018. Neeraj Pandey directs..."
