John Abraham starrer Parmanu shifts to 2nd March

After getting postponed not one or two but three times, John Abraham and Diana Penty's much-awaited forthcoming film, Parmanu: The Story Of Pokhran, has been deferred yet again.

The film was complete and ready for its theatrical bow last year only. But it had to shift its release date from 8th December as Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period drama Padmaavat, which was a much bigger film than the John Abraham starrer, was coming on 1st December.


Parmanu then decided to hit screens in the Republic Day weekend, but Akshay Kumar's Pad Man and Sidharth Malhotra's Aiyaary also decided to enter the fray in the very same week. Considering, the box office battle with two big films featuring popular stars could harm their movie, the makers of Parmanu decided to come on 23rd February.

However, the makers have once again changed the release date of their film. Now, Parmanu: The Story Of Pokhran will release on 2nd March. John Abraham confirmed the news on Twitter, captioning, “#JAEntertainment and #Kriarj will release #Parmanu on March 2nd, 2018!! The most explosive trailer to be launched soon!!! @kriarj @johnabrahament.”

Parmanu: The Story Of Pokhran is a joint production of KriArj Entertainment and will clash with KriArj’s another film, Pari, which is also coming on 2nd March. Pari stars Anushka Sharma in the lead role.
