Aamir
Khan's
Laal
Singh
Chaddha
and
Akshay
Kumar's
Bachchan
Pandey
were
all
set
for
a
big
box
office
on
Christmas
2020.
However,
today,
Aamir
took
to
his
Twitter
page
to
announce
that
the
clash
has
been
averted
and
thanked
Akshay
and
producer
Sajid
Nadiadwala
for
pushing
ahead
the
release
date
of
Bachchan
Pandey.
The
Thugs
Of
Hindostan
star
wrote,
"Sometimes
all
it
takes
is
one
conversation.
Thank
you
to
my
friends
@akshaykumar
&
Sajid
Nadiadwala
for
their
warm
gesture
of
moving
the
release
date
of
their
film
Bachchan
Pandey
at
my
request.
I
wish
them
the
very
best
for
their
film.
Looking
forward
to
it.
Love.

Responding
to
Aamir's
tweet,
Akshay
shared
his
new
look
from
Bachchan
Pandey
along
with
a
new
release
date.
The
Khiladi
Kumar
took
to
his
Twitter
page
and
wrote,
Anytime
@aamir_khan,
we're
all
friends
here
🙃
Presenting
-
new
look,
new
release
date.
Coming
on
22nd
January,
2021.
In
and
as
#BachchanPandey!

In
the
new
still,
the
Mission
Mangal
actor
is
seen
staring
intensely
at
the
camera
as
he
sports
a
long
beard
and
is
seen
bare-chested
with
gold
chains
around
his
neck.
The
red
headband
adds
more
intensity
to
his
look.
Bachchan
Pandey
will
be
helmed
by
Farhad
Samji.
Speaking
about
Akshay's
character
in
the
film,
a
source
earlier
told
a
leading
daily,
"It's
a
massy
character
and
has
several
oneliners
tailor-made
for
Akshay.
A
lot
of
time
was
also
spent
on
designing
his
look."
The
film
stars
Kriti
Sanon
as
Akshay's
love
interest.
Talking
about
her
role,
the
actress
shared,
"It
is
better
than
a
parallel
hero's
role.
It
is
a
very
meaty
role
not
done
by
any
actress
in
the
past.
But
that
does
not
mean
that
she
will
also
not
get
to
do
songs.
She
will
do
two
songs
also
and
will
have
a
substantial
part
to
play
as
well."
Bachchan
Pandey
is
now
slated
to
hit
the
theatrical
screens
on
January
22,
2021.
