Initially slated to release on April 14, 'Salaar' was postponed since 'K.G.F. 2' with the same production team, and the director is now arriving on the same date as the latter has been pushed since 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic in India. Its new release date hasn't been officially announced by the makers.
Meanwhile, Prithviraj Sukumaran, who has also appeared in Hindi films like 'Aurangzeb' and 'Naam Shabana', will be seen next in the Malayalam thriller 'Jana Gana Mana' set to release on April 28.
