Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Bala and Sunny Singh starrer Ujda Chaman have similar concepts. The makers of both the films are trying to release their movie before each other. Bala was slated to release on 15th November 2019 and Ujda Chaman was scheduled to hit the screens on 8th November 2019.
A few days ago, the makers of Bala changed their release date to 7th November. Soon, the makers of Ujda Chaman announced that their film will release on 1st November. It was said that even Bala will hit the screens on 1st November. However, Ayushmann took to Instagram to announce that his film will release as per the schedule on 7th November.
The actor posted a note which read, “On this auspicious day of Diwali, Jio Studios and Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films have decided that we will release our film Bala starring Ayushmann Khurrana in the title role on our original release date of 7th November, putting an end to much speculation.
Jyoti Deshpande President of the RIL Media & Entertainment business said "Ours is the one and only original Bala and in the best interest of business of theatre owners, our fellow producers, and audience convenience we will do select preview of our film as planned on 7th November and release it widely across nationwide cinemas on Friday the 8th of November. Diwali is an auspicious occasion to show grace and positivity and that's exactly what we believe in. We have made a film that audiences are going to love and this decision comes from that confidence and conviction".”
Directed by Amar Kaushik, Bala also stars Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam. The trailer and the songs of the film have received a good response.
