‘Super Nani’ release date postponed to 31 October

MUMBAI: After Hollywood flick Fury starring Brad Pitt changed its India release date, Rekha’s next film Super Nani is next in line.

Previously scheduled to release on Diwali, the film has postponed its release date by a week to avoid getting eclipsed by Shah Rukh Khan starrer Happy New Year. The movie which was slated to release on 24 October will now be in theatres on 31 October.

The biggest highlight of the film is that it marks the comeback of veteran actress Rekha to the silver screen after a long gap. Directed by Indra Kumar, the small budget movie also stars Sharman Joshi, Anupam Kher, Indra Kumar’s daughter Shweta Kumar in lead.

“We have postponed our film and there are several reason behind this. One of the major reasons to push the film was that we want to avoid the clash with Shah Rukh Khan,” Kumar told IANS.

The promo of Super Nani was recently released along with Sonam Kapoor starrer Khoobsurat, which was the remake of Rekha’s 80s hit film by the same name.

Director Farah Khan’s big-budget multi-starrer Happy New Year will hit the screens during the Diwali week.
