Actress Anushka Sharma's upcoming paranormal thriller "Pari" will hit the screens worldwide on February 9, 2018, she revealed on Monday.

To be directed by debutant Prosit Roy, the film will be jointly produced by Anushka's Clean Slate Films and KriArj Entertainment.

Sharing a new poster of the film, Anushka tweeted the release date on Monday.

On signing the film, Anushka had said in a statement: "'Pari' is a great script, and I have complete faith in the vision of the director as well as this collaboration with KriArj Entertainment."
