While there was a talk about Salman Khan having no release in 2022, here comes a surprise. Pinkvilla has exclusively learnt that Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala have decided to bring the upcoming social comedy, the Farhad Samji directed Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali on December 30, 2022. Interestingly, it would be double celebrations for the fans as the film will release three days after Salman Khan’s birthday.

“Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali is a subject close to heart for both Salman and Sajid. The story is by Sajid Nadiadwala himself, and he along with Salman have been excited to bring this tale of comedy, drama, emotion, action and a subtle social message to the audience for a while now. The pandemic delayed it’s shooting schedule, but with things easing out, the film is all ready to roll,” revealed a source close to the development.
