Suraj shines in theatres post lockdown

Manoj Bajpayee, Diljit Dosanjh and Fatima Sana Shaikh starrer film Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari is going to be the first Hindi film to be released in theatres post lockdown.

Directed by Abhishek Sharma, the comedy-drama genre is releasing on November 15, 2020.

Director Abhishek expressed his gratitude to the production house for giving him that push for theatre even in these times.

He added, "We’ll be the first film to come out in theatres. But the films that have been released on streaming during the pandemic have suffered. Wondering why the makers couldn’t have waited longer."

He also went on to say that he is sorry for the films that died their death.

"I wouldn’t take names but there are so many films which are on OTT right now and I can see some coming as well, which are promising, I don’t know why they couldn’t wait. For me, cinema belongs to theatres. I’m a theatre guy, I feel cinema belongs to movie theatres and not to OTT. I think that’s the death of the cinema...," Abhishek expressed clearly.
