We were the first ones to tell you that Sidharth Malhotra and Manoj Bajpayee’s Aiyaary was initially scheduled to release this Republic Day. However, the makers shifted the release so as to avoid any clashes at the box-office. 

Talking about Padmavati and Pad Man, this year is all set to begin on a dhamaakedar note with both the films fighting it out at the box-office. It would be interesting to see which one rakes in more money at the ticket window. Padmavati has been in the news ever since it was in the making. The film was initially scheduled to release on December 1, 2017. However, due to umpteen controversies, the makers were left with no option but to push the release date further. Pad Man, on the other hand, stars Akshay, Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte in key roles. The film gives out a social message about menstrual hygiene in rural areas.
