Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff's action film pushed to Gandhi Jayanti 2019

We have only just entered the second month of 2018 but some production houses are already jostling for slots for their movies next year.

Yash Raj Films had earlier announced a big action extravaganza starring Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff and Vaani Kapoor and earmarked 25 January 2019 for its release.

But the production house was forced to change the release date after another Hrithik Roshan fim, Super 30, got pushed to the same date.

Today, YRF announced that it would shift the action flick's release to 2 October 2019.

The film will be directed by Siddharth Anand. Hrithik Roshan is teaming up with YRF after 11 years. He had last worked with the production house on Dhoom 2 (2006).

It is the first time Hrithik Roshan and Shroff will be working together. Apparently, the former's character plays a mentor to the latter in the film. Shooting for the film is now expected to begin in August and wind up in February 2019.

Super 30, which is directed by Vikas Bahl, was earlier slated to be released in October this year.
