Coolie No 1 release date shifted to May-end? Varun Dhawan responds

19 Mar 2020

The May 1 release date for David Dhawans Coolie No 1 seems impossible to meet. Informed sources reveal that the films patchwork including a song, plus all post-production work are yet to be completed. With all shooting activities coming to a grinding halt due to the Coronavirus outbreak one hears that the Dhawans have taken a collective decision to shift the release date of Coolie No 1 from May 1 to May-end or the first week of June. While David Dhawan remained non-committal (You tell me if we should postpone or not, was his reply), Varun Dhawan when asked about the postponement, responded, I guess we are also reviewing the situation like everyone else at the moment. A source close to the development says, Coolie No 1 is an important release for Varun. His last two films Kalank and Street Dancer were flops at the box office. Coolie No 1 is a home production. The Dhawans wont take a risk with the release. It will come only when the virus threat recedes.
