Akshay Kumar has again changed the release date of his upcoming film PadMan. The new date of release of the film is 9 February 2018, which was scheduled to release on 25 January.
Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali requested actor Akshay Kumar to shift the release date of his upcoming movie PadMan to February 9, ensuring that Bhansali's film Padmaavat gets a solo release on 25 January.
Screening of the film Padmaavat in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Haryana is doubtful still the re-schedule of PadMan release date is a boon for Padmaavat.
On 19 January, the decision to postpone PadMan’s release was announced at a press conference at Akshay Kumar’s Juhu residence that was jointly addressed by the actor and Bhansali.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali expressed his gratitude to Akshay saying “You know Padmaavat has faced a lot of hardship. The release date was his. We requested him to shift the release as he is a big star.I will be grateful to him for a lifetime for what he has done. This is for the world to understand that this is how we respect each other, stand by each other. As a fraternity, we are proud of what Akshay has done.”
Akshay Kumar said, “It is essential for them to release the film as quickly as possible as they have a lot at stake. His need is more than me, I can understand that.”
Actress Deepika Padukone said in a Twitter post, “On behalf of Team Padmaavat, a big big Thank You to Team Padman for your support and generosity.”
Manoj Bajpayee and Sidharth Malhotra starer film Aiyaary is scheduled to release on 9 February and they are not happy with the change.
