Padmavati unofficial release date locked for January 26?.

The release of the Sanjay Leela Bhansali
directed Padmavati landed in the middle of
a storm with protests against the film
erupting across the nation. If that wasn't
enough there have been numerous calls for
the ban on the release of the film, along
with threats being levelled against the film's
director and its cast members.
However, amidst these controversies the
makers of the film Viacom 18 announced
that the release of Padmavati had been
pushed till matters were solved. Well now
we hear that the film which was initially
scheduled to hit screens on December 1,
will release only in January 2018. If that
wasn't all, the date being selected is
apparently the same as Akshay Kumar's
release date for his film Padman, which will
hit screens on January 26.
Though an official announcement of the
new release date for Padmanati is yet to be
made, internal sources at the production
house stated that January 26 has been
locked as the unofficial release date.
What remains to be seen now is whether
the makers of Padmavai announce Jan 26
as the film's release date, or will they
reschedule it. And if Padmavati does release
on 26 Jan, will Akshay Kumar's Padman
release simultaneously or will the film be
rescheduled?
