Rohit Shetty‘s cop thriller Sooryavanshi, starring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles, was one movie audiences were very much looking forward to. But the makers of the film just announced that they will be pushing the film’s release due to the recent outburst of Covid-19 (Coronavirus).
The team of Sooryavanshi took to social media to share the news and declared that the film has officially been pushed till later, until the scare of the virus dies down as it is not safe for the audiences to visit theatres during such a time. The film was slated to release on the 24th March, 2020.
The press release read:
