Boman Irani’s upcoming film Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran has been postponed four times already. The film, also starring John Abraham and Diana Penty, was originally slated for a December 2017 release, but will now release in April 2018. To avert a clash with another big project, the release of films is often rescheduled. While some actors get bothered by the constant date pushing, some stay calm, as there’s nothing they can do about it.
Boman Irani falls in the second category. The actor believes in being “practically philosophical”, not just when it comes to his films’ release but also how they fare at the box office.
“A film is a film. It’s (either) going to work or not going to work. You postpone its release, it will still not make a difference, because if it’s a good film, people will come and still watch it. A film takes a long time to make, so these things shouldn’t matter really. Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying I’m laid-back about the films I do, it’s just that a film will work despite such events,” says Boman.
