Filmmaker Neeraj Pandey's next movie Aiyaary, which was due to release on January 26, 2018, will now hit the screens on February 9, 2018, the makers announced on Wednesday. It features Sidharth Malhotra and Manoj Bajpayee in the lead roles.

The film, set in Delhi, London and Kashmir, revolves around two strong-minded army officers having completely different views, yet right in their own ways. It is a real-life story based on the relationship between a mentor and a protege.

Aiyaary, which was earlier slated to release on January 26, 2018, was looking to an inevitable clash with Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar’s 2.0. However, the makers took a practical call and shifted the Sid-Manoj's film date.

The Neeraj Pandey film will now lock horns with Anusha Sharma's Pari at the box-office.
