Salman Khan Cancels Shoot For Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai In August, Film To Now Release In 2021
Salman Khan’s Radhe to Release In 2021

Due to the Coronavirus induced lockdown, the country’s theatres are still to open and barely any film shoots have begun. Salman Khan couldn't release Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai on Eid and therefore was reportedly very eager to release his film on Diwali, but the shoot of the film which was to resume in August has been canceled once again according to recent reports.
Only a few days ago Salman Khan hit the headlines for booking a floor in Mehboob Studios for August for a 10-day-shoot of the Prabhudeva directorial. However, that plan has now been dropped after WHO came out with their recent statement of possibilities of the virus being airborne in closed and crowded spaces.
A source has been quoted by Mid-Day as saying, "On Sunday, Salman called off the impending schedule after discussing with his team and co-producers Atul Agnihotri, Sohail Khan and Nikhil Namit. He felt that filming indoors could pose a risk to the health of the cast and crew. On the other hand, an outdoor shoot was not feasible in the monsoon. So, he has decided to hold off the stint till October-end, post which the unit will film the remaining portions — including a song — at outdoor locations."
Salman’s main concern here is the well-being of his crew members, "Salman's first priority is the safety of his team members. The makers are now eyeing a 2021 festival release; by then, the theatres will have also reopened," the source adds.
Salman Khan is presently spending time at his Panvel farmhouse away from Mumbai.
