Releasing a BIG film in such challenging situation is commendable when market of Maharashtra is closed, rest territories will operate with 50% occupancy with no night shows. The inclination to revive cinemas by makers of #BellBottom & #AkshayKumar is praiseworthy ! pic.twitter.com/UmOfQ7VNdL— Sumit Kadel (@SumitkadeI) August 17, 2021
