Akshay Kumar-starrer 'Prithviraj' now has a new release date and will hit the big screen on June 10. The film was earlier scheduled to hit the screens on January 21 but got postponed due to the outbreak of Omicron in the country.





A source said: "When you have a sureshot blockbuster at hand that will appeal to audiences across the country, you can't gamble with such a huge product. 'Prithviraj' will massively aid in bringing people back to the theaters and it can't be released at a time when it won't fulfill this purpose. Business wise too it doesn't make sense to compromise a film that will rake in the moolah at the box-office."

"It's a no-brainer to postpone the film and gauge Omicron and the Covid-19 scenario before taking a call on the next release date of the film."

"YRF was waiting till the last minute to see if the situation in India and overseas improves but the pace with which coronavirus cases are accelerating, it forced their hand to hold on to the biggest title."

The source added: "Everyone is looking at 'Prithviraj' to take the box-office by storm and set some new milestones in the post-pandemic era and YRF is committed to this belief. They will put this project out when it can set the box-office on fire."

The film, which also stars Sonu Sood and Sanjay Dutt, marks the debut of beauty queen Manushi Chhillar.

It will release in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. The film is directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi.
