As an instance, ‘Shankar’s’ Indian 2 is going to be released on June 13th, a Thursday, in five languages. The same as ‘Kalki 2898AD.’ it will have a July 27th opening across the globe, Thursday. Then turned after with biggies ‘Pushpa 2’ on Thursday and Nani with ‘Saripodhaa Sanivaaram’ also joining the track.

Similar to this, the music videos which were initially to be released on Fridays, may over time, end up being released on Thursday, in the new order of things.
