Rohit Shetty's Sooryavanshi ready to hit theatres early

Earlier scheduled to release on March 27, Sooryavanshi, the much-awaited film of Rohit Shetty's cop universe will now hit big screens on March 24 this year.

Mumbai: Rohit Shetty's latest cop drama Sooryavanshi has got a new release date. It will now hit the theatres on March 24, 2020.

The makers of the film have announced the news through a quirky video featuring the films hero Akshay Kumar along with Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh.

In the video, a group of children is seen running with a piece of paper mentioning the film's new release date. The kids visit Ajay, Ranveer and Akshay for approval. As the trio happily agrees to their proposal, the kids cheered: "Aa rahi hai police!"

Sooryavanshi will be screened all night on March 24, 2020.

The date marks the Maharashtrian New Year Gudi Padwa and therefore is a state holiday in the state. Keeping the festive mood in mind, Shetty and team want to cash in as the Maharashtra government recently declared that multiplexes, eateries and shops in malls can stay open 24x7 from now on.

Sooryavanshi marks the onscreen reunion of Akshay with Katrina Kaif after a decade. The two stars last starred together in the 2010 release Tees Maar Khan.

Their new film also features Gulshan Grover, Abhimanyu Singh, Niharica Raizada, Jackie Shroff, Sikandar Kher and Nikitin Dheer.

Presented by Reliance Entertainment, Sooryavanshi is co-produced by Rohit Shetty, Karan Johar and Cape of Good Films.
