'Sooryavanshi' And '83' On Waiting Mode Despite Cinemas To Open

The Government of India, after almost six months, has announced that cinemas will be allowed to reopen across the country starting October 15. The news came as big relief for the filmmakers and theaters owners who were waiting desperately for cinemas to open that are closed since the lockdown due to the covid-19 pandemic was imposed on March 25. ## On Wednesday, the Union Home Ministry announced cinemas, theatres, and multiplexes to reopen with 50 percent seating capacity from October 15. The decision has been hailed by the film fraternity, who are now waiting for all the state governments to give a green signal.## However, despite cinemas to open, the wait for movies like Sooryavanshi and 83 will continue as the makers don't want a clash between these two biggies and also don't want to release in a short time of promotion. ## "This is a great announcement but we still have to wait for all the states to open up. Many states like Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu are yet to open up. 'Sooryavanshi' and '83' have been ready for quite some time. 'Sooryavanshi' was originally slated for a Diwali release, but it's not practical. Even if theatres open up in November, you can't release such a big film with 15 days promotion time," Reliance Entertainment CEO Shibashish Sarkar told IANS.## While filmmaker Rohit Shetty's 'Sooryavanshi' will bring Akshay Kumar back in the cop avatar, actor Ranveer Singh will be seen in the much-hyped Kabir Khan's '83' as the iconic Kapil Dev, who captained India's first-ever cricket World Cup victory campaign in 1983.## "As of now, '83' is slated for a Christmas release. Of course, we won't bring two films in December. I still haven't had a chat with Rohit Shetty or Kabir Khan. But one thing is clear that we don't want to hold the films indefinitely. We would like to bring one film during Christmas and another between January and March, but we have to see when all the states open up," Sarkar added.## Stay tuned...
