These include Angrezi Medium, Gunjan Saxena, Roohi Afzana. Angrezi Medium, set to release on March 20, 2020, is now set to release a week earlier on March 13.
Meanwhile, Janhvi Kapoor's Gunjan Saxena got pushed back to April 24, 2020, Roohi Afzana, got pushed back to June 5, 2020.
Back in June of 2019, Akshay Kumar revealed that Sooryavanshi was not going to release on May 22, 2020. Instead, it got moved to an earlier date- March 27, 2020. Recent reports state it will release on March 25, 2020.
The source further told the entertainment portal that March 25, 2020, was a Wednesday and a part-holiday on account of Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra. Even if some parts of the country will not celebrate the festival, the makers still feel that the movie could get a great opening. The source also stated that Akshay Kumar's Sooryavanshi had mass appeal and that audiences were looking forward to seeing him in the film.
Due to these reasons, the producers, Akshay Kumar, and Rohit Shetty felt that it was fair to release Sooryavanshi two days earlier and make use of the open window. They also wanted to earn as much as possible before another anticipated film, ’83, releases on April 10, 2020. Furthermore, the source also told the portal that Angrezi Medium's producers were on board about Sooryavanshi's earlier release date. Angrezi Medium's producers were fine with the change in dates and were content that their film had a 12-day window after Sooryavanshi.
