Director Rohit Shetty’s film Sooryavanshi, which was to have an epic box office clash with Salman Khan’s Inshallah on Eid in May 2020, will now be released on March 27.
Sooryavanshi features Bollywood’s Khiladi Akshay Kumar in high-octane sequences, while Inshallah is going to be directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
Salman made the announcement with a photograph in which Rohit and he are twinning in black.
“I always thought of him as my younger brother and today he proves it…Rohit’s Sooryavanshi releasing on March 27, 2020,” the Dabangg actor wrote along with a photograph of himself posing with Rohit.
Filmmaker Karan Johar, who is one of the producers of Sooryavanshi, also tweeted: “The ultimate Khiladi and the blockbuster director are arriving on March 27, 2020 with Sooryavanshi. Special love to Salman.
Sooryavanshi is the fourth film of Rohit’s cop drama universe in which Akshay is essaying the role of Veer Suryavanshi, a character that was introduced as an anti-terrorist squad officer in the Ranveer Singh-starrer 2018 film Simmba.
Inshallah which marks the reunion of Bhansali and Salman after a long time, is an epic romance drama. It also features Alia Bhatt.
