New Delhi: The announcement of Merry Christmas, a film directed by Sriram Raghavan and starring the powerhouse pair of Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi, caused quite a stir. The film’s producers have announced a new release date and explained why the film’s initial December 8 release date had to be pushed back.
The film Merry Christmas will reportedly hit theatres for the first time on January 12, 2024.
On Thursday – November 16, the filmmakers presented a brand new poster for the movie as well as revealed the new release date for the movie. The film’s creators, while sharing new promotional posters for the film, said, “The wait is almost over! #MerryChristmas is making your winter merrier on January 12, 2024.”
According to the name of the movie, its debut was supposed to take place around the Christmas season, but the release was pushed back to prevent competition with other movies. Along with the announcement of the film’s release date came the unveiling of a brand-new poster that featured Katrina and Vijay. It depicts Katrina seated in a restaurant as Vijay observes her from the opposite table in the same establishment.

Many occasions have resulted in the postponement of Merry Christmas. It had been expected to compete with Sidharth Malhotra’s Yodha on December 8, but both films have been moved to a later date to prevent being adversely impacted by Ranbir Kapoor’s film Animal, which will be released in theatres on December 1.
The creators released a statement in which they vowed to do their best and provide audiences with a genuinely extraordinary movie experience. They said, “We have made this film with a lot of love and passion like every filmmaker does however with the back to back movie releases and packed last two months of 2023, we have taken the decision to extend the season of joy and bring our film to the theatres on January 12, 2024”.
