School are out on Friday's. People like to take a break from their busy schedules and it's a marketing strategy.

oh btw, Movies now release on Thursday Late Night Show at 12AM because college students in U.S. are likely to go watch movies on thursday rather than on Friday because Friday they go out clubbing and Saturday they party/whatever and Sunday is just a chill day.

Never noticed all movies release on weekends... weekends free time to watch a movie😉😆 So should they not release on Friday or release some other day, missing the debate here.

JFYI - Based on few more response, this post might be moved to bollywood/misc section. Thanks

maybe the rating will be higher as students don't study on saturday and sunday and also people have holidays on sunday and some only work half day on saturday.
