However, the film’s release date is clashing with that of the Ranbir Kapoor starrer Animal on December 1. However, Vicky was seen unperturbed by the clash and stated, “In today’s time, we, as an industry should give the option of multiple films on the same day to the audience. That’s how we will flourish as an industry. We have those many weeks in a year, but as an industry, we cannot limit ourselves to making those many films in a year. We will have to make multiple films and we will have multiple releases on the same day. We have to build an atmosphere with multiple films can work on the same day. We have the strength in the audience, we have the strength at the exhibitor level, so, why not?” he said

Vicky would also be seen next in Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film Dunki which is directed by Rajkumar Hirani.
