After a long wait of almost seven months, the lockdown is finally easing down and the sources of entertainment are finally reopening. And amid all this, the theatres and cinema halls were opened again from October 15. As they slowly start opening up across the country, a plethora of Bollywood movies are also being kicked into gear for a re-release schedule.
A lot of movies are scheduled to be released in upcoming weeks including the highly anticipated theatrical runs of Ranveer Singh’s ‘83 and Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi. Ranveer Singh has been the talk of the town since Singh debuted his first look as Kapil Dev, the force and leader behind India’s 1983 world cup victory. Let us take a look at four other Bollywood projects that have been announced in October 2020.
