Mumbai: The makers of Prabhudheva and Tamannaah Bhatia starrer 'Khamoshi', have pushed the release date to avoid a clash with 'Devi 2'. The movie which was slated to release on May 31, will now open on June 14.
Reportedly, the makers decided to postpone the release date so that both the movies can enjoy equal box office success.
Saurabh Mishra of PYX Film said that June 14 was the "best option for us and was a collective decision taken by the cast and our distributors".
"When Tamannaah and Prabhudheva suggested the change we instantly agreed to it as we did not want the audience to choose between two movies with the same actors. It was a better alternative," he added.
'Devi 2', a horror comedy, is a sequel to the 2016 film 'Devi'. The film features Prabhudheva, Tamannaah, Nandita Swetha, Dimple Hayati, Kovai Sarala, RJ Balaji and Saptagiri.
'Khamoshi' deals with silence and fear of the unknown. Tamannaah plays a deaf and mute girl who gets trapped inside her own house.
The movie has also been shot in Tamil titled 'Kolaiyuthir Kaalam' in which the lead role is played by Nayanthara.
Directed by Chakri Toleti, the movie is produced by Vashu Bhajnani. It also stars Bhumika Chawla and Sanjay Suri in pivotal roles.
