TIL Desk Bollywood/ After the announcement that the much-awaited film “Padmavati” will now release as “Padmavat” on January 25, National Award-winning filmmaker Sudhir Mishra has pushed the release date of his upcoming film “Daas Dev” to March 2.
The film, featuring Richa Chadha, Aditi Rao Hydari and Rahul Bhat, was earlier planned to release on February 16. Mishra, who also vocally supported “Padmavati”, said in a statement: “The entire team is thrilled with the news of the official release of ‘Padmavat’. We have all rooted in this decision and as a fraternity are happy the film is coming to theatres soon.
So in lieu of that and to ensure our film too receives its share, we considered and finalised the push to March 2. Now we are all gearing up for the new date and will put it all energies towards it”. “Daas Dev” is a modern take on the Bengali classic novel “Devdas” by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay. “Padmavat” director Sanjay Leela Bhansali made a film on the same novel and now Mishra is giving a new take on the old story.
