Taapsee, Amitabh's Badla headed for a face-off with Marvel?
The film produced by Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Puri marks Bachchan and Taapsee's second collaboration.
Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu's upcoming flick Badla is all set to hit theatres on March 8, 2019. Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh has confirmed the release date by tweeting, “Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu... #Badla to release on 8 March 2019... Directed by Sujoy Ghosh... Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Azure Entertainment (sic).”
The film produced by Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Puri marks Bachchan and Taapsee’s second collaboration. They last shared screen space in Pink.
However, the film could be headed for a face-off with Marvel’s much-anticipated Captain Marvel, which is slated for release on the same date. Considering that Marvel’s most recent film Avengers: Infinity War made over Rs 200 crore in India, their next offering poses a serious threat for Badla.
The makers could either change their release date or hope that the Indian release of Captain Marvel doesn’t happen along with its international release.
