Helicopter Eela to now release on 12th October

Pradeep Sarkar was recently diagnosed with dengue and was hospitalised. While in the hospital he came out to direct a scene with Mr.Bachchan  to complete the shooting schedule of Helicopter Eela. Special care was taken with an ambulance and a doctor on standby on the set. He had an IV drip on his hand and after completing the shoot he went back to the hospital to continue with his treatment.

 

Ajay Devgn did not want to continue the post of the film without Pradeep Sarkar and will wait for him to come out of the hospital and be fit enough to resume work.

Ajay Devgn along with Producer Jayantilal Gada (pen) decided to shift the release date to 12th October.
