Eid 2022 will be different for Hindi movie industry and especially actor Salman Khan’s fans. Unlike many years, this year there won’t be a Salman Khan movie release. Instead the actor recently took to social media platform Instagram and unveiled the teaser of Ajay Devgn’s upcoming film Runway 34 that will release just before Eid on April 29.
Depending upon moon sighting, Eid this year is likely to be celebrated on May 2.
Sharing the teaser on Instagram, the actor wrote, “I don’t have any film ready toh maine apne bhai @ajaydevgn se request ki hai if he can come on Eid, Eidi dene ke liye. Chalo iss Eid hum sab celebrate karenge aur dekhenge #Runway34 (I didn’t have any film release on Eid this year, so I have requested my brother Ajay Devgn to come on Eid with the Eidi (gift). We all will celebrate Eid and watch Ranway 34).” The movie also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Rakul Preet Singh, Boman Irani and Carry Minati.
Producer Sajid Nadiadwala’s ‘Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali’ will be actor’s only release in 2022. It is scheduled to release in theatres on December 30.
