'Mister Mummy' premiere postponed; to clash with 'Drishyam 2'
It is yet another clash in Bollywood! Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia Deshmukh starrer Mister Mummy, which was initially slated to arrive in theaters on November 11, has now been postponed. The film will now release on November 18. This means that the film will lock horns with Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran, and Akshaye Khanna-led mystery thriller Drishyam 2.
Release re-scheduled to avert a different clash?
One can anticipate that it has been pushed back to avert clashing with two other Bollywood movies, Uunchai and Thai Massage. While Uunachi is led by Amitabh Bachchan, Gajraj Rao is the lead actor of Thai Massage. Another film titled Yodha starring Sidharth Malhotra and Disha Patani was also supposed to be released on November 11, but its premiere has also been postponed.
