The much-speculated third wave of COVID-19 is here, forcing Bollywood to defer their date with theatres. Just when things were getting back on track, the sudden spike in cases and low footfall to the cinemas have compelled filmmakers to push the release dates of big films including RRR, Jersey, and Valimai. While some may choose to go the digital way, director Anees Bazmee is ready to wait it out.
Bazmee’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, which is in post-production to integrate BGM and VFX effects, was wrapped up last November and has been set to release on March 25. Ready to release the film alongside other biggies, the director says, “[The situation] cannot be helped. All I can do is announce my release date so that others know to avoid the [same date]. A clash is imminent, and films could get affected, but that is fine. As a filmmaker, what I can do is make a good movie.”
