Laxmmi Bomb: Is This Why Akshay Kumar Starrer Is Releasing On November 9?

Just a couple of days ago, Akshay Kumar treated his fans by releasing the motion poster of his upcoming film Laxmmi Bomb. The film will release on November 9.  Diwali (this year) falls on November 14 so the big question is – why isn’t it releasing on the Friday before the auspicious day, November 13?

Reportedly, the reason for choosing November 9 is Akshay’s love for the number (9). The actor believes the number is lucky for him. Read on to know more.

As per BollywoodHungama, a source close to the film said, “As we all know, 9 is the lucky number of Akshay Kumar. Earlier, the release date of the film was September 9 which was significant also because it was Akshay Kumar’s birthday. In the past, he has tried his best to bring his films and even its trailers on the 9th or on dates that add up to 9.”

The source that the release date will help it not clash with Coolie No 1. It continued, “Also, Coolie No 1, starring Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan, would be out on November 13 on Amazon Prime. It is produced by Vashu Bhagnani, who is also producing Bellbottom, for which Akshay is currently shooting, in Glasgow. Both had a discussion and felt it would be wise to have a gap between both the films. Keeping these two factors in mind, the date November 9 was locked for Laxmmi Bomb.”
