Irrfan Khan-starrer "Karwaan" will now release on August 3, a week before its scheduled date.
The release date of the Ronnie Screwvala venture, which also marks the Bollywood debut of Dulquer Salmaan and Mithila Palkar, has been advanced "to enjoy a clear two-week solo run at the box office", read a statement from the makers, who believe that as per distributor's point of view, it is a lucrative release window.
"Karwaan" revolves around three oddballs from different walks of life who are thrown together on a somewhat bizarre journey which helps them find normalcy in their lives.
The film has been shot in the locales of Kerala.
Produced by Screwvala's creative production house RSVP in association with Ishka films, "Karwaan" is directed by Akarsh Khurana.
Earlier, Yash Raj Films' "Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar" was to release on August 3 too, but its makers shifted it to March 1, 2019.
