Varun and Janhvi's Bawaal to now release on Oct 6

The makers of the upcoming social drama film Bawaal on Wednesday announced the new release date of their film.

Taking to Twitter, Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment tweeted, "National Award-winners Sajid Nadiadwala and Nitesh Tiwari are back with BAWAAL. Watch their epic creation on 6th October 2023 in theatres near you! Starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor.”


Helmed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film stars Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor in the lead roles.

Previously, the film was scheduled to hit the theatres on April 7, 2023. It will now release in cinemas on October 6, 2023.

Due to the impending VFX and technical requirements, the decision to push the release of the film is taken.

The film went on floors last April in Lucknow and the team later travelled to Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Bawaal marks the first on-screen collaboration between Varun and Janhvi.

Meanwhile, Dhawan will be also seen in the official Hindi adaptation of the Hollywood series Citadel.

It is being created by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K. The action-packed series also stars Samantha Ruth Prabhu.

It is an Indian adaptation of the Russo Brothers' series of the same name. Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden are headlining the international version.

The release date of the Indian version of Citadel is awaited, while Priyanka Chopra-starrer Citadel will drop on April 28 on Prime Video.

Janhvi, on the other hand, will also be seen in Karan Johar's next sports drama film Mr and Mrs Maahi opposite Rajkummar Rao.

Riz Ahmed’s 'Hamlet' trailer drops murder suspicion into a South Asian business dynasty

Highlights:

  • Hamlet trailer lands with Riz Ahmed in the lead role
  • Film sets Shakespeare inside a wealthy British South Asian family
  • Directed by Aneil Karia and in cinemas 6 February 2025
  • Cast includes Morfydd Clark, Joe Alwyn, Sheeba Chadha and Art Malik

Riz Ahmed has entered Hamlet in a way British cinema has not quite seen. The new Hamlet trailer has been released by Universal, giving the first proper look at Aneil Karia’s modern take on Shakespeare and placing the story inside a British South Asian business empire. It is due in cinemas on 6 February, and the footage shows a tense, controlled Ahmed moving through grief, suspicion and family power.

The film teams Ahmed and Karia again after The Long Goodbye, which won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short. That success informs this production. This is the first time a major UK studio release has grounded Hamlet within a South Asian household for a wide audience.
