Viacom18 Studios on Thursday announced that their upcoming movie "Fighter", starring Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone, will arrive in theatres on September 28, 2023. The production banner shared the new release date of the film on their official Twitter account.
"Get ready to witness India's first aerial action franchise, 'FIGHTER' in theatres on September 28, 2023. @iHrithik @deepikapadukone @AnilKapoor #SiddharthAnand @MarflixP @AndhareAjit @itsMamtaA @ramonchibb," the tweet read.
The Siddharth Anand-directed movie is touted as the first aerial action franchise of the country and a homage to the "valour, sacrifice and patriotism of Indian armed forces". With the announcement of the film's new release date, the makers have averted a clash with Shah Rukh Khan's "Pathaan".
"Fighter" was earlier scheduled to arrive in cinemas on January 26, 2023, a day before the theatrical debut of Khan's "Pathaan".
