Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh will be facing a big release clash with Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming action thriller film Pathaan. SRK, John Abraham, and Deepika Padukone-starrer Pathaan is slated to hit the theatres a day prior to the release of Santoshi's Gandhi-Godse Ek Yudh.
Santoshi's last directorial -- Shahid Kapoor and Ileana D'cruz's romantic comedy Phata Poster Nikla Hero in 2013 -- got a decent response from the audience. He will also direct Mithun Chakraborty's son Namish Chakroborty and Amrin Qureshi's debut Bollywood film Bad Boy. The official release date of the film is still awaited.
