Release Date Shuffle: ‘Salute’ replaced with ‘Blind Love’ while the former gets another postponement

When it comes to Pakistani films, the release dates have always been a problem! There is hardly a film or two which has succeeded in releasing on its original planned date otherwise a few postponements are inevitable. Moreover another problem with the Lollywood-wallahs is that when deciding on release dates there is no consideration for the release dates of other films and this results in further complications. For instance last year on Independence Day, 3 films released simultaneously ( total 14 films released last year) which ate into each others business while there were many open weeks where the films could have had a better release.

Even this year the coming few weeks seem jam-packed with releases. First we have four biggies ( Ishq Positive, Revenge Of The Worthless, Blind Love and Salute) set to release within close proximity to each other later this month and then we have the three mega releases ( Actor in Law, Janaan and Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hay) releasing on Eid-ul-Azha.

While the Karachi wallahs, who are releasing three biggies on Eid-ul-Azha are yet to change the dates , the Lahore producers seem to have more business aptitude and have smartly maneuvered the dates and the result is better for all.

Salute, which was to release on August 5 has now been shifted to September 2 and the original date has been given to Blind Love. The film Blind Love was earlier releasing on July 29, just a week after the release of Revenge Of The Worthless and Ishq Positive both of which release on 22 July, will now release on August 5.

Got a bit confusing right? Here is the new chart.
