BREAKING NEWS: Anushka Sharma’s Pari Digital Trailer Release CANCELLED, Blame It On Padmavati
Buzz surrounding the release date of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati has forced certain filmmakers to tweak their plans. The postponement of Anushka Sharma starrer Pari’s digital trailer launch is a classic example
Till a few days
ago, December 5 was special for both Anushka
Sharma and Virat Kohli. While the cricketer was prepping for test series
against South Africa (began today), the actress was gearing up for Pari’s
digital trailer launch.
However, things
didn’t go as per plan for Anushka. Reason? Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh and
Shahid Kapoor starrer Padmavati.
Anushka Sharma In Pari
Says a source,
“Anushka and Prernaa Arora (KriArj Entertainment, co-producer of Pari) had
decided to launch the trailer today as no films were on the horizon as a result
of which movie-buffs would be focused on Pari. However, speculations
surrounding Padmavati’s release date forced them to change their plans.”

Adds the source,
“Team Padmavati is yet to announce their release date and Pari makers are keen
that they take the final call on the trailer launch post that. In case of the
period drama coming out on February 9, they would
want to push the film and tweak the trailer accordingly.”
Ranveer Singh In Padmavati
SpotboyE.com had
told you that Viacom (producers of Padmavati) officials have had long
meetings recently, toying with with the idea of releasing Padmavati on
either January 26 (a day after Pad Man)
or February 9 (Pari’s release date).
Shahid Kapoor In Padmavati
However, last
night, Akshay declared that Pad Man will release on January
25 come what
may.
It clearly indicates that the superstar is confident of the product and sees no
reason to panic.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali
In such a
scenario, February 9 still remains a wobbly
spot for KriArj and Anushka.
Prerna Arora
We think it’s a
sensible decision by Anushka and Prernaa not to tread on a wet wicket.
