One of the hotly anticipated action films Attack has booked a date for its theatrical release. The film, starring John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandes, and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles, will enter theatres on 13 August, the makers announced on Sunday.
Based on a true story of a hostage crisis, Attack is being directed by debutant director Lakshya Raj Anand. It is a joint collaboration between John Abraham’s JA Entertainment, Jayantilal Gada’s Pen Studios, and Ajay Kapoor’s Kyta Productions.
Abraham said that Attack aligned with his vision to make entertaining and high-on-content films. “At JA Entertainment, it is our endeavour to push the envelope and produce films that entertain and have something significantly different to show to our increasingly discerning audience.
“Releasing the film in theatres this Independence weekend adds to my excitement,” Abraham said in a statement.
Gada said the team’s decision to release the film in theatres is an extension of their support to film exhibitors and cinema hall owners who suffered losses last year due to the pandemic.
“By planning to bring it to theatres on 13th August 2021, we are standing by film exhibitors and theatre owners who have survived a very difficult year during the COVID-19 crisis.
“John and his production house have conceived a phenomenal film and people will flock to watch it on the big screen!” the producer said.
