Monday, 12th May 2014, 05:30 PM IST Music composer turned actor turned producer Himesh Reshammiya will be releasing ‘The Xpose’ on the election results day. With most other producers deciding to steer clear of the election result day, Himesh has been bold enough to reschedule his release from May 23rd to May 16th. Despite risking massive ignorance for the first day of the movie, owing to the fact that people will be glued to their television sets for the results, Rakesh Upadhyay,creative producer of ‘The Xpose’, feels that the film will do well on the first day. He says, “We are aware that May 16 is counting day, but by afternoon, the results will be known and people will step out after that. Also, the election staff that has been tied up for the last several months will be looking forward to some relief after all these months. I am sure our film will provide them the much-needed entertainment quotient.” Rakesh admitted that the other factor that influenced them to shift dates was the Indian Premiere League (IPL) schedule. “We had initially announced May 23 as we were unaware of the detailed schedule of IPL’s cricket matches at that time. Later,we realised that from May 23 to 25, there are qualifying matches for the semi-finals and there are two matches on a day, so we decided to pull forward the release,” added Upadhyay. Along with Himesh Reshammiya, the film stars Yo Yo Honey Singh, Irrfan and newcomers,Zoya Afroz and Sonali Raut. |
