Dharmendra-Sunny Deol-Bobby Deol-starrer Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se was earlier supposed to release on 15 August alongside Akshay Kumar’s Gold and John Abraham’s Satyameva Jayate. It will now release on 31 August. The Deols were definitely not keen on competing with the films high on patriotic fervour.
The makers released a new poster to amp the excitement around the sequel.
The film, the third in the franchise, also stars Kriti Kharbanda and is being directed by Navaniat Singh.
"Our film is a wholesome family entertainer, hence we have decided to release our film YPD Phir Se two weeks later on August 31," Sunny had said in an interview to IANS.
