Due to the Coronavirus pandemic that resulted in the global lockdown, a majority of the Hindi films were postponed. Not only that, Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, Abhishek Bachchan, and Alia Bhatt, all decided to release Laxmmi Bomb, Bhuj: The Pride of India, The Big Bull, and Sadak 2 on Disney Plus Hotstar keeping in mind the uncertainty of the movie business.
However, there are two films that deserve a big screen experience, Akshay Kumar's another mega-ambitious Sooryavanshi and Ranveer Singh's much-awaited 83. The former was supposed to release in the cinemas on March 25 and the latter on April 10, but due to the cinemas being shut, were postponed.
The good news here is that PVR cinemas have taken to their Twitter account to announce the new release dates of these two massively awaited films. Kumar's Sooryavanshi is now arriving on Diwali and Singh's 83 is heading towards the cinemas on Christmas. Have a look at their tweet right here:
