Tollywood star Dev’s upcoming film Khadaan is yet to get enough shows in West Bengal to open advance bookings, he said in a social media post on Wednesday, extending his apologies to fans for the delay.
The actor reassured fans that he is trying to get more shows for the film, slated to hit theatres on December 20.
“Sincere apologies to my audience as advance opening is still not open. Trust me I'm still trying and fighting to get shows for #Khadaan and open the advance. But KHADAAN is not getting shows still due to other language film distribution here in Bengal. Really sorry, please be patient. I will not stop trying,” he wrote on X.
The trailer for Khadaan was dropped by the makers today. Directed by Soojit Rino Dutta, the upcoming action thriller sees Dev portraying a father and son, alongside an ensemble cast featuring Jisshu Sengupta, Barkha Bisht, Idhika Paul and Anirban Chakrabarti.
The upcoming film also promises a series of foot-tapping numbers, including Rajar Raja, Kishori and Haye Re Biye.
Khadaan is produced by Surinder Films and Dev Entertainment Ventures.
As of Wednesday, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna-starrer Pushpa 2: The Rise was ruling screens across India. The makers announced that the sequel has become the fastest Hindi film to breach the Rs 600-crore mark at the domestic box office.
