Before the film begins production, the makers today unveiled its first look along with announcing the new release date. Starring superstar Akshay Kumar in the lead role, Sooryavanshi will hit the theatres on Eid 2020. Earlier the movie was set for a Christmas release in 2019.
"Eid 2020 will be about a bullet for a bullet. Sooryavanshi stars the Khiladi of all time, Akshay Kumar and directed by the blockbuster machine Rohit Shetty," Karan Johar, who is co-producing the film, tweeted.
Sooryavanshi will be the fourth installment in the Rohit Shetty-directed cop drama series, the other three being Singham, Singham 2 (2014) and Simmba. "From Rohit Shetty's police universe, get ready for the fire-packed Sooryavanshi," tweeted Akshay Kumar while sharing the first posters of the film.
