On Monday, February 3, Bollywood Hungama published the viral news that the Akshay Kumar-R Madhavan-Ananya Pandey starrer period courtroom drama has been titled as Kesari Chapter 2. The news spread like wild fire in no time. The film was initially scheduled to be released on March 14 on the occasion of Holi, just like the first part, which arrived in cinemas on Holi 2019. But as per the latest information, the film has been pushed ahead.

This brought up the question as to which film will now take up the Holi slot. Bollywood Hungama has learned that Dhadak 2 will be the Holi release of 2025. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Dhadak 2, like Kesari Chapter 2, is produced by Dharma Productions. Once they postponed the Akshay Kumar-starrer, they decided to not let go of the coveted slot and hence, are all set to bring Dhadak 2 on the Festival of Colours. An official announcement is expected to take place soon.”

Dhadak 2 stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri and was originally scheduled to be released on November 22, 2024. It was then pushed to February 21, coinciding with Triptii’s birthday, which falls on February 23.

As of now, Dhadak 2 is expected to have a solo release on Holi. An industry insider commented, “Holi is a big festival and ideally, two mid-sized films can be accommodated at that time. However, this year, Holi falls during the Holy month of Ramadan. Salman Khan’s big-scale action film Sikandar is scheduled to release two weeks after Holi, on Eid. Hence, expect fewer releases in March.”

A trade expert, meanwhile, remarked, “February 7 will see two releases – Badass Ravi Kumar and Loveyapa along with a plethora of re-releases. Chhaava arrives on February 14 and Mere Husband Ki Biwi on February 21. No major film is lined up after that except The Diplomat on March 7 and Dhadak 2 on March 14. Even May might have fewer releases, as it happened last year, due to IPL. Hence, there might be unnecessary clashes from June. In short, the industry might once again repeat the mistakes of 2024 of letting certain Fridays go to waste and having too many releases in certain weeks.”

The Subhash Kapoor-directed Jolly LLB 3 starring Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi is among the most awaited spectacles of 2025 and was gearing up for an April 10, 2025 release. But in the latest development of things, Jolly LLB 3 will no longer be released on April 10, 2025 and the date has been pushed to the month of August.

According to our reliable sources, Akshay Kumar and the team have delayed Jolly LLB 3 at the request of Karan Johar. “Karan Johar is planning to bring another franchise film, Kesari 2, on April 18, 2025. He requested Akshay if he could reschedule the date of Jolly LLB 3, and the Khiladi was more than gracious to do the same,” a source told Bollywood Hungama.

The source further informed that Kesari 2 is taking the release date of Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, as the latter is getting delayed to the second half of 2025. “The entire calendar of Dharma and Akshay Kumar is reshuffling. The date of Kesari 2 and Jolly LLB 3 will be announced soon.”

While the excitement was building around the release of Shashank Khaitan’s rom-com, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, we have heard from our reliable industry sources that the Karan Johar production is no longer releasing on April 18, 2025 as announced. A very close source to the film confirms that the shoot for Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari has been extended to March.

“Karan and Shashank feel that there is scope for more fun elements in the film, and hence they have planned another schedule to be canned around the destination wedding moments. The entire cast, including Varun and Janhvi will be a part of this schedule. The idea is to enhance the film further to hit the bull’s eye. Karan is a master of this genre and is leaving no stone unturned to serve the audience with two big-scale rom-coms: Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari and Tu Meri Main Tera Main Teri Tu Mera in 2025 and 2025 respectively,” the source told Bollywood Hungama further.

Further talking about what exactly Karan and Shashank are looking to shoot, the source continues, “Apart from some scenes, the makers will also be shooting for 2 songs. Around 25 days of shoot remains, which has led to a delay in release. Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari will hit the big screen in the second half of 2025,” the source shared with us.

The date of Sunny Sanskari will now be taken by another Dharma film, and the release date announcement is around the corner.

Popular stand-up comedian Pranit More, who shares a decent fan following on social media, was assaulted in a shocking incident after his Solapur show by a gang of men who waited back to meet him pretending to be his fans. As per a note shared by More’s team on social media, the attackers revealed that they were angry about Pranit’s jokes on debutant actor Veer Pahariya. However, expressing shock over the incident, the Sky Force star condemned the act.

Taking to his Instagram page, Veer Pahariya, grandson of former Maharashtra CM and former Minister of Home Affairs Sushil Kumar Shinde, has spoken out against the unfortunate incident involving comedian Pranit More, in a heartfelt statement where he made it clear that he had no involvement in the attack and strongly condemned any form of violence. “I am truly shocked and saddened by what happened to Comedian Pranit More,” Veer shared in a public statement. “I want to make it absolutely clear—I had no involvement in this, and I strongly condemn any form of violence. As someone who has always taken trolling in stride, laughed along with it, and shown love even to my critics, I would never encourage or support harm towards anyone, let alone someone from the same creative fraternity.”

“To Pranit and his fans—I am deeply sorry that this happened. No one deserves this. I will personally ensure that whoever was responsible is held accountable,” he added. Sources close to the actor have also confirmed that he is actively looking into the situation and will take necessary steps to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.

Meanwhile, Pranit More’s team have questioned the freedom and rights of the stand-up comedian and have also asserted about filing a police complaint against the attackers. “We have lodged an online complaint from Mumbai. We sincerely urge the authorities to take immediate action and thoroughly investigate this matter so that such incidents do not happen again”, the note read in conclusion.
