Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi wont get a Diwali release

Will Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi starring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif release this Diwali? Well, now that the Government has released guidelines regarding reopening of cinema halls from 15th of this month, it seems that the movie won’t be premiering on Diwali.

No these aren’t speculated rumors, but the news is clarified by one of the producers of the film, Reliance Entertainment’s CEO Shibasish Sarkar. The ministry of home affairs had declared reopening of cinema halls in some places around the country with 50% of the seating capacity.

Shibasish told, “Theatres aren’t reopening in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu either. So, we shall wait and watch before deciding the release of 83 and Sooryavanshi. Look, even if theatres open in all states by November 1, we can’t release such a big film, doing only 15 days of promotion.”

Along with getting lesser time for promotion for the film, he also revealed some other reasons for the delay in release. He said that team would prefer waiting and seeing the response to the other films releasing. He revealed, “Some film will definitely release in December. We shall watch the proceedings. We will know how many people came to see it. And who knows where Corona stands in India in December or November? What if cases are still high?”
