Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi would be about a year late in the theatres. But it’s now all set for a summer May-June 2021 release. Sources close to the development say the producers and Akshay Kumar are in agreement in a quick release.
“Any further delay can only cause harm to the product’s performance. A year is long time to wait. They now need to take call on a Summer release.”Apparently director Rohit Shetty who is also a co-producer on Sooryavanshi is in agreement on the new release strategy.
“Rohit and Reliance Entertainment who are co-producers on the project have decided they would go about doing the biggest post-Covid release in India in May-June with approximately 2,000 prints across India. They’re hoping Sooryavanshi will bring the audience back into theatres,” says the source close to the development.
So far all attempts post-Lockdown to wean the audiences back into theatres have failed. Sooryvanshi with the combined never-before combination of Akshay Kumar and Rohit Shetty is expected to turn the tides.
