Initially Eid was supposed to fall on 8 August, but now falls on 9 August and a bank holiday has been declared on the 9 August.
Disney UTV, Director of India Theatrical Distribution, Gaurav Verma said the film’s release was planned keeping the holiday in mind and hence it was being postponed by a day.
