Sooryavanshi, starring Akshay Kumar, will be released on Diwali

Sooryavanshi, starring Akshay Kumar, has been one of the most eagerly anticipated films of the year. The film, which was supposed to be released last year but was postponed twice due to the COVID 19 outbreak in the country, has finally been released.

However, now that things are returning to normal, it appears that the wait to see Akshay Kumar in the role of a daring cop in Rohit Shetty’s film is ended. According to a recent update, Sooryavanshi will be released on Diwali this year.

Maharashtra To Open Theatres

Rohit Shetty made the announcement on Instagram, alongside a photo of himself with Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray. For the uninitiated, Rohit visited Thackeray today with other filmmakers to discuss the reopening of theatres in Maharashtra.

Following the conference, it was announced that theatres in the state would open on October 22. After that, Rohit revealed that Sooryavanshi will be released on Diwali. “Theatres in Maharashtra will reopen on October 22nd, thanks to our Honourable Chief Minister, Shri Uddhav Thackeray. Finally!!! we can say, DIWALI… AA RAHI HAI POLICE…”

Take a look at Rohit Shetty’s post:

In contrast, Akshay expressed his delight at the release of Sooryavanshi, writing, “So many families would be thanking Sh Uddhav Thackeray today!” Thank you for permitting movie theaters in Maharashtra to reopen on October 22. Ab kisi ke roke na rukegi – AA RAHI HAI POLICE #Sooryavanshi #Diwali2021”. 

In addition to Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif will play the lead in Sooryavanshi. Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh will also make cameo appearances in the film.

Sooryavanshi Release Postponed Earlier

Earlier, director of the film Rohit Shetty had a lively conversation with Maharashtra’s Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray. At the meeting, a source confirmed that Uddhav Thackeray was appreciative of Rohit Shetty for taking a bold and difficult decision to postpone Sooryavanshi.

February 2021, when the federal government allowed 100% of people to theaters, the producers decided to release the film on April 2.

Later, they postponed it to April 30 and on Rohit Shetty’s birthday on March 14, they even made a formal announcement.
