Sidharth Malhotra’s spy-thriller ‘Yodha’s release postponed again ?

Fans of Sidharth Malhotra will have to wait even longer to see their favourite actor in action, as his latest spy thriller ‘Yodha,’ which was supposed to be released on September 15th, has been postponed for the third time. As per new media sources, Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions who are sponsoring this spy thriller have made a strategic decision to once again postpone the film’s release and the reason for this decision is Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Jawan’.

SRK’s most-awaited action entertainer is due to hit theatres on 7 September, and the film is expected to dominate the box office and cinema halls for at least 2-3 weeks. It will undoubtedly have a detrimental impact on the box office of other films releasing during the same time period. As a precaution, the creators of ‘Yodha’ have decided to delay its release. As of yet, no formal announcement has been issued by the creators on this release delay.
The film is directed by debutantes Sagar Amre and Pushkar Ojha and stars Disha Patani and Raashii Khanna as female roles. The film is produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions in conjunction with Shashank Khaitan.
Apparently this is not the first time that Yodha has been postponed. The movie has been postponed multiple times due to various reasons, Yodha was originally scheduled to premiere in theatres in November 2022, however the release date was moved up to 7 July 2023. But due to some VFX issues, producers once again decided to postpone the release and makers finally decided to release it on 15 September 2023. But now the film has been postponed again.
It will be fascinating to see when the makers want to release this film since if it is released around October or November, it will be near to Sidharth’s debut web series ‘Indian Police Force,’ which is also planned to premiere on Amazon Prime around Diwali this year. And the decision to release both projects so close together could be damaging to either project.
