Chopra
&
Sidharth
Malhotra's
Jabariya
Jodi
postponed
again
for
this
reason

These
days,
Sidharth
Malhotra
and
Parineeti
Chopra
are
busy
with
the
promotions
of
their
upcoming
film
'Jabariya
Jodi'.
The
film
is
based
on
the
real-life
instances
of
groom-kidnapping,
a
phenomenon
that
is
prevalent
in
north
India.
The
film
was
supposed
to
hit
the
big
screens
on
August
2,
along
with
Sonakshi
Sinha's
'Khandaani
Shafakhana'.
However,
now,
the
makers
of
'Jabariya
Jodi' have
postponed
the
release
date
of
their
film
ahead
by
a
week.
The
Sidharth
Malhotra-Parineeti
Chopra
starrer
will
now
be
releasing
on
August
9,
2019.
This
decision
was
taken
after
considering
the
fact
that
there
are
too
many
releases
on
August
2
and
many
previously
released
films
like
Judgementall
Hai
Kya
are
enjoying
a
solid
run.
To
add
to
that,
prominent
exhibitors
across
India
came
together
and
requested
the
makers
to
move
ahead
to
August
9,
to
avoid
the
clutter.
Jabariya
Jodi
will
now
enjoy
a
solo
release.
Also,
the
film
will
have
a
holiday
advantage
of
Bakri
Eid,
which
falls
on
August
12.
And
with
Saaho
getting
pushed
to
the
end
of
the
month,
Jabariya
Jodi
may
also
get
the
advantage
of
the
Independence
Day
weekend.
Speaking
about
his
role
in
the
film,
Sidharth
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying
by
India
Today,
"When
I
had
to
play
Abhay
Singh,
this
character
which
is
so
far
from
what
I
have
played
in
the
past
or
where
I
have
come
from,
it
needs
a
lot
of
prep.
It
needs
a
lot
of
homework
to
be
done.
We,
as
a
team,
worked
for
about
a
month
and
a
half
to
get
the
nuances
right
and
work
on
the
language.
We
had
our
director
Prashant
Singh
and
our
writer
Sanjeev
K
Jha,
who
is
from
the
state,
to
help
us.
It's
a
lovely
cocktail
of
a
serious
issue
shown
in
a
much
funnier
way
so
that
people
by
the
end
of
it,
when
they
enjoy
the
film,
they
will
also
realise
what
is
right
and
wrong."
Parineeti
too
opened
up
about
the
film
and
said,
"I
think
the
challenge
and
the
excitement
was
to
get
into
these
roles
that
we
had
never
done
before.
We
had
our
director
and
writer,
who
are
from
UP
and
Bihar,
throughout.
Whether
it's
the
lingo,
whether
it's
the
costumes,
whether
it's
the
world
or
the
characters,
they
were
always
there
to
help
us.
What
we
may
see
as
difficult
was
actually
an
exciting
challenge."

is
