Sidharth Malhotra's and Riteish Deshmukh's Marjaavaan, with its intense trailer and a stellar cast, teamed with a strong storyline, has managed to build the right amount of anticipation. And as the film inched closer to its release date, fans were excited to catch their favourite star duo, Riteish and Sidharth together onscreen after Ek Villain. However, now, in the latest development, the audience has to wait for some more days as Marjaavaan's release date has been pushed ahead by a week. Well, yes. The producer of the film, Bhushan Kumar, on Thursday, on Twitter, announced that instead of November 8, 2019, Marjaavaan will now open at theatres on November 15, 2019. He also informed the audience that the decision was taken in order to make way for Ayushmann Khurrana's Bala, avoiding a box-office clash as the makers of the film share a great bond with him.
Well, although Marjaavaan has dodged the clash with Bala by getting a solo release, Ayushmann's film will still have to face competition with Sunny Singh's Ujda Chaman, which is scheduled for a November 8, 2019 release. Interestingly, Bala and Ujda Chaman feature their lead actors-Ayushmann and Sunny as young men suffering from premature balding. Not just this, on Thursday, when new posters of the films were unveiled, an uncanny resemblance between both can be easily identified.
I’ve had a long standing relationship with @MaddockFilms and #DineshVijan is also a dear friend. I’ve decided to shift #Marjaavaan to 15th November 2019, to make way for #Bala. My best wishes to the team!@TSeries

Previously, releases in the month of November had to experience several date changes. For Marjaavaan, which was earlier scheduled for a November 22, 2019 release, got preponed to provide John Abraham's Pagalpanti a solo release. In this shift of dates, Bala, which was initially a November 22, 2019 release, also got preponed and occupied the November 15, 2019 slot which was earlier taken by Vicky Kaushal's Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship. This Karan Johar produced horror film will now release on February 21, 2020.
Speaking of Bala, the film also Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam. While Bhumi plays a dusky small-town girl, Yami will be seen as a supermodel from Lucknow in the quirky comedy. Marjaavaan is directed by Milap Zaveri and also stars Tara Sutaria and Rakul Preet Singh in the lead roles.
