Rumy Jafry’s forthcoming thriller starring megastar Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi is one of the most anticipated movies releasing this year. Be it the stellar star cast or intriguing storyline, the movie has been in the news right from its inception. The film was earlier scheduled to release on April 9, 2021, but due to the second wave of the Covid 19 pandemic, it was halted. However, the makers have now announced a new release date, fulfilling their promise to release Chehre in theatres.
Announcing the new release date, Big B shared a small clip from the movie, featuring him and revealed that the mystery thriller will hit the theatres on August 27. Sharing the video, the actor wrote, “CAUTION You have been warned! Be ready for #FaceTheGame, kyunki yeh ilzaam aap par bhi lag sakta hai. #Chehre, releasing on 27th August in cinemas near you.”
In a statement, Producer Anand Pandit said, “Chehre' is not just thematically strong but has a certain grandeur that deserved the immersive magic of the big screen. I have grown up watching bockbusters in theatres and to watch Mr Bachchan on the big screen in one of my productions would be beyond thrilling. This is also my 51st production and I wanted to make its release, a special occasion for the cast, the crew and the audiences. The film will now be released all over the world on 27th August and I couldn't be happier.”
He added, “The industry is a family that has suffered a lot in this pandemic but I believe we can survive anything if we stand by each other. So bringing 'Chehre' to theatres is my way of standing by over 10 lakh people who are associated with the industry in some way or another.”
'Chehre' also stars Annu Kapoor, Rhea Chakraborty, Krystle D’Souza and Siddhanth Kapoor in pivotal roles.
