Atrangi Re is a cross-cultural love story and marks Aanand L Rai’s return to the director’s chair after 2018 film Zero starring Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. The film was slated to release on Valentine's Day 2021 but with the shoot being deferred, the release date is also likely to get postponed.

As the world tries to get back on its feet during the novel coronavirus crisis, film and television shoots are slowly resuming while adhering to guidelines issued by the government.

Akshay Kumar will also be seen in Bell Bottom starring Vaani Kapoor as the female lead. The film will soon resume shooting in the UK. A chartered plane will be arranged for the entire unit and the producers will ensure proper safety measures and medical facilities.

Taran Adarsh wrote on Twitter, “FILMING TO BEGIN... #AkshayKumar, #VaaniKapoor, #HumaQureshi and #LaraDutta... Team #BellBottom to charter a flight to fly the entire unit to #UK... Producers to ensure safety measures and medical facilities... Directed by Ranjit M Tewari... 2 April 2021 release.”

Meanwhile, Akshay Kumar’s Laxmmi Bomb is set to have its digital premier on Disney+Hotstar. The actor’s Sooryavanshi is expected to release in theatres after the novel coronavirus crisis.
