Amazon Prime Video on Wednesday announced the date for the global premiere of Excel Entertainment’s forthcoming family and kids’ entertainer Hello Charlie. In an infectiously funny teaser that the streamer dropped earlier today, Aadar Jain is seen transporting a gorilla from Mumbai to Diu. The additional cast of the rib-tickling comic-caper includes Jackie Shroff, Shlokka Pandit, and Elnaaz Norouzi. Hello Charlie premieres on April 9 on Amazon Prime Video.
Speaking about the upcoming Amazon Original Movie, Vijay Subramaniam, Director, and Head, Content, Amazon Prime Video India comments, “Set to release this April, Hello Charlie is yet another addition to our long-standing association with Excel Entertainment.

I hope that the viewers will enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed creating it. Can’t wait to treat the audience with Hello Charlie on 9th April!”
