Reports: Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla To Shift Release To Avoid Dhurandhar 2

Outlets citing unnamed sources report a brief postponement, with no official confirmation yet.

Overview

  • Entertainment reports say Akshay Kumar discussed the delay with Ekta Kapoor, Aditya Dhar and Jyoti Deshpande before opting to push the film by a month or two.
  • A new release date is expected soon, replacing an early‑April slot that had been cited across previous reports.
  • The move is positioned to steer clear of Dhurandhar 2’s late‑March 2026 window, with reports pointing to March 19 or March 27.
  • Sources say the decision reflects lessons from how the first Dhurandhar contended with crowded Christmas competition.
  • Bhooth Bangla reunites Kumar with director Priyadarshan after 14 years, produced by Balaji Telefilms and Cape of Good Films, and featuring Wamiqa Gabbi and Paresh Rawal.
