Ajay Devgn’s De De Pyaar De shifts to 15th March 2019

Shuffling release dates has become a norm in Bollywood of late. After Student Of The Year 2, the latest film which has changed its release date is Ajay Devgn’s much-awaited romantic drama De De Pyaar De.

Earlier scheduled to roll into theatres on April 26, 2019, the Akiv Ali directorial will now mark its entry into cinemas on 15th March, 2019. The movie has been preponed by one and a half month from its scheduled date.


Though the makers have not given any reason for preponing the film, insiders feel the decision has been taken to avoid a box-office clash with the Hollywood biggie Avengers: Endgame which is slated to hit screens on 26th April.

However, sources close to the production house have something different to say. They reveal that the film is already ready and that is why the makers have decided to release it earlier than its scheduled date.

Besides Ajay Devgn, De De Pyaar De also stars veteran actress Tabu and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles. Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018) fame filmmaker Luv Ranjan is co-producing the movie along with T-Series Films’ Bhushan Kumar.

Water demand sparks questions around shoot logistics

The upcoming pan-Indian film Varanasi, directed by S. S. Rajamouli and starring Mahesh Babu, has reportedly run into a logistical challenge ahead of a key shooting schedule. According to reports, the production team sought a substantial number of water tankers for an underwater sequence being prepared at a specially constructed set near Gaganpahad in Hyderabad.

It is claimed that around 150 tankers, each carrying 10,000 litres, were requested from the city’s water authorities. However, the request was reportedly turned down due to ongoing summer shortages and increasing demand for drinking water across Hyderabad. There has been no official confirmation from the makers, though the reports have circulated widely online.
