As Bachchan Pandey gets postponed, Akshay Kumar announces new release date of Bell Bottom

This morning Aamir Khan took to Twitter to thank Akshay Kumar and Sajid Nadiadwala for postponing the release date of their film Bachchan Pandey so that his movie Laal Singh Chaddha can get a solo release on Christmas 2020.

Aamir tweeted, “Thank you to my friends @akshaykumar & Sajid Nadiadwala for their warm gesture of moving the release date of their film Bachchan Pandey at my request. I wish them the very best for their film. Looking forward to it. Love. a.”


So, Akshay Kumar announced that his movie Bachchan Pandey will now release on 22nd January 2021. He tweeted, “Anytime @aamir_khan, we’re all friends here ? Presenting - new look, new release date. Coming on 22nd January, 2021. In and as #BachchanPandey! #SajidNadiadwala @farhad_samji @kritisanon.”

Interestingly, Akshay starrer Bell Bottom was already slated to release on 22nd January 2021. So, people on social media started speculating if it will be Akshay Kumar vs Akshay Kumar at the box office. However, the actor took to Instagram to announce the new release date of Bell Bottom.

He posted, “I know there are enough memes out there about me clashing with myself one day but 22nd January 2021 is not that day ? #BellBottom will now release on 2nd April, 2021! #RanjitTiwari #VashuBhagnani @jackkybhagnani @deepshikhadeshmukh @onlyemmay @madhubhojwani @nikkhiladvani @emmayentertainment @pooja_ent.”

Bell Botton is said to be a spy thriller set in the 80s. Reportedly, the movie stars Mrunal Thakur as the female lead. However, the makers are yet to announce it officially.

Mark Gatiss, best known for co-creating Sherlock, is back with another brainy sleuth, and this time, it’s personal. Bookish, a 1940s-set detective drama written by and starring Gatiss, follows the eccentric Gabriel Book, a former intelligence agent turned antiquarian bookseller who helps the police crack cases in bombed-out postwar London. The six-part series, which debuted this week on U&Alibi, has already garnered praise for its clever plots, layered characters, and strong sense of time and place, with some calling it “the next best thing to Sherlock.”
