The makers of Satyameva Jayate 2 starring bollywood actor John Abraham and Divya Khosla Kumar have decided to delay their Eid 2021. The announcement was made keeping in mind the deadly second wave of the coronavirus in the country.
On Tuesday, Nikkhil Advani’s Emmay Entertainment announced that the release date of their forthcoming movie Satyameva Jayate 2 has been postponed due to the increasing number of the Covid-19 cases in India.
Emmay Entertainment released an official statement on social media which read, “In these unprecedented times, nothing matters more than the safety and health of our countrymen & patrons. Our film “Satyameva Jayate 2” will now release on a later date. Till then let’s keep our masks on and do our best to keep our loved ones and ourselves out of harm’s way. Jai Hind.”
