Ace filmmaker and top-honcho of Dharma Productions, Karan Johar has been in the news ever since the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. He has been facing backlash on social media where he has been dubbed as the flag-bearer of nepotism and encouraging star-kids. Amidst this, news was doing rounds for the past few days that Karan who is associated with Rohit Shetty’s cop universe film Sooryavanshi, has been dropped.
However, the news has been not true, claimed trade analyst Taran Adarsh who wrote, “IMPORTANT… News doing the rounds of #KaranJohar not being part of #Sooryavanshi is untrue, clarifies #RelianceEntertainment.” The film among Ranveer Singh’s 83 is all set for theatrical release. These are the first two films that announced for theatrical release over digital streaming.
Sooryavanshi was supposed to hit the screens in March. However, the team got it postponed in the wake of COVID. Announcing the same, the team back then tweeted, “Sooryavanshi is an experience that we have created for you with over a year of dedication and hard work, and the response we received for its trailer was nothing less than electrifying and made it clear that this film truly belongs to its audience… We have been as excited as you are to present the film to you and your family, but due to the recent outburst of the COVID – 19 (Coronavirus), we, the makers, have decided to postpone the release of your film Sooryavanshi, keeping in mind the health and safety of our beloved audience… And therefore, Sooryavanshi will be back for you just when the time is right… After all, safety comes first… Until then, keep the excitement alive, take good care of yourself and stay strong… We shall pull through this… -Team SOORYAVANSHI.”
