In order to ensure that his upcoming films have a good run at the box office, actor turned producer John Abraham has decided to take a call on the release dates of his projects.
The actor’s home production ‘Vicky Donor’ was a huge hit, which seems to have given John a fair idea about the right time for release of movies. The film was released on April 20 last year and there were no other big releases at that time.
“I am going to dictate my release dates to a large extent. I will take the studio in confidence as they need to understand my point of view. I decided the release date of ‘Vicky Donor’. I knew what I was doing… so let me do it,” John told. “I will be absolutely cautious about the release dates of my films,” he said. John’s next release will be ‘Shootout at Wadala’ where he essays the role of gangster Manya Surve. ‘Shootout at Wadala’, a prequel to the 2007 hit film ‘Shootout at Lokhandwala’, dramatises the first ever registered encounter by Mumbai police where Manya Surve was shot dead at an institute at Wadala in 1982. It stars Anil Kapoor, Tusshar Kapoor, Sonu Sood, Manoj Bajpayee, Ronit Roy, Kangana Ranuat and others. The film will hit cinema houses on May 1, which happens to be the International Worker’s Day.
