A source told the tabloid, “Now, the team is eyeing an October 2 release for the T-Series produced film. The discussions, however, are in the nascent stage as there is uncertainty about the reopening of cinemas. If all goes well, Chhalaang, which is presented by the studio, too will hit the marquee, though its release date has yet to be ascertained.”

Well, it is said that once theatres reopen in India, initially producers and exhibitors are planning to rerun the past blockbuster movies. And now, it looks like if the theatres reopen soon, Indoo Ki Jawani would be one of the first ones to hit the big screens.

Meanwhile, both Kiara and Rajkummar will be having their other film releasing on the OTT platforms. While Kiara’s Laxmmi Bomb releases on Disney+ Hotstar, Rao’s Ludo will release on Netflix.
