For the past several months, ‘Parmanu – The Story of Pokhran’ has been in the news for the numerous delays in the release of the film and an alleged fallout between the makers. John Abraham can now finally have a good night’s sleep after the recent order passed by Bombay High Court, which means that the film will meet its release date of May 25. The HC has also ruled in John’s favour, cancelling the beleaguered film’s association with KriArj Entertainment. In the past couple of weeks, there were several news reports of John moving court for his film ‘Parmanu – The Story of Pokhran’ when a number of payments were defaulted by KriArj Entertainment. After repeated promises of financing the publicity and marketing campaign plus the production cost, a large number of dues remained unpaid. After patiently waiting and giving KriArj a number of chances, John was left with no option but to pursue legal action against KriArj.

A recent statement released by John’s spokesperson (of JA Entertainment), said that the film will release under three banners — JA Entertainment, Zee Studios and Kyta Productions. The statement said, “At the very outset, we would like to thank the entire media fraternity for its continued support to us and our film, ‘Parmanu-The Story of Pokhran’. We would like to briefly apprise you of yesterday’s developments in the on-going case in the Hon’ble Bombay High Court. It has been agreed that ‘Parmanu-The Story of Pokhran’, will release on May 25, 2018 under the joint banner of JA Entertainment, Zee Studios and Kyta Productions. There is no other producer associated with this project. The trailer of the film will be launched today on May 11, 2018 which is the 20th anniversary of India’s nuclear test explosions at Pokhran. The film will be distributed in India by Vashu Bhagnani’s Pooja Entertainment and will be distributed overseas by Zee Studios. We are extremely thankful to the Hon’ble Bombay High Court for the speedy resolution of various issues at hand thus paving the way for our film’s release. We would like to make no further comment and focus all our energies on the release of the film now. Once again, we thank you for your understanding and support.”
