Rohit Shetty 'proves' he is Salman Khan's 'younger brother' by moving Sooryavanshi's release date to avert clash with Inshallah

Salman Khan took to Twitter on 12 June and revealed the new release date of Rohit Shetty's next project Sooryavanshi. The film was initially scheduled to clash with Khan's Inshallah on Eid 2020 but will now hit theatres on 27 March, 2020. Sooryvanshi is an expansion of Shetty's cinematic universe after Simmba and Singham. It will see Katrina Kaif reunite with Akshay Kumar after a decade-long gap.

Kaif had previously said that there was a possibility of averting the clash between the two films. "Salman loves Akshay; he loves Rohit. He will always be supportive of me in the work place. So, I don’t think he will let his film clash with Sooryavanshi," the actress had said.

Kaif and Kumar have starred in blockbusters like Namaste London (2007), Singh is Kinng (2008) and Welcome (2008). The actors last paired up for Farah Khan's 2010 comedy Tees Maar Khan, best known for Kaif's iconic song 'Sheila Ki Jawani'.
