After contemplating the release of Krrish 3 first on
Sunday, November 3 and then Monday, November 4, filmmaker Rakesh Roshan has now
decided to unleash his much awaited superhero flick starring Hrithik Roshan on
Friday, November 1. The filmmaker communicated the decision to all his
distributors and exhibitors over the weekend.
Apparently, the idea of releasing the film, also
starring Priyanka Chopra, Kangana Ranaut and Vivek Oberoi, on November 1 was
suggested to him by his distributors, exhibitors and even overseas associates.
Confirms Rakesh Roshan, “This year, Dhanteras, the
first day of Diwali, is on November 1. And it’s a holiday for most people. My
distributors and exhibitors, even those overseas, wondered why I was not making
use of the holidays. Fortunately or unfortunately, it’s for the first time in
many years that Diwali and Lakshmi Puja are falling on Sunday. No one knows the
repercussions of a pre-Diwali release. But since everyone is keen on a Friday
release, I’ll be releasing Krrish 3 on November 1.”
