Yesterday, the fans and trade got a surprise as it was announced that Baby John will now arrive on Christmas. It was originally scheduled to be released in theatres on May 31 but now has been pushed to December 25. It is backed by Jio Studios and in an interesting development, the production house has managed to book all the three major holidays of 2024 for their exciting releases. While Stree 2 will arrive on Independence Day (August 15), Singham Again has been locked for a Diwali release. This decision marks a significant step in Jio Studios' efforts to capitalize on festive periods, which traditionally see higher cinema footfalls.

Stree 2 is the sequel to the 2018 horror-comedy hit, Stree. The original star cast – Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana and Pankaj Tripathi – feature in the second installment. The film is even more awaited after the success of the recent release Munjya, which was also set in the same cinematic universe. It is also produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and directed by Amar Kaushik.

Singham Again, meanwhile, has tremendous buzz due to the association of blockbuster director Rohit Shetty. Ajay once again reprises his role of Bajirao Singham and this time, he’s joined by Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Tiger Shroff. Though it’ll clash with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, which is another highly awaited film, the charismatic presence of its leading man, the high-octane action (a hallmark of the series) and its patriotic fervour are sure to pull in viewers.

Finally, Baby John stars Varun Dhawan, Keerthy Suresh and Wamiqa Gabbi and is produced by Jawan director Atlee. Details about Baby John are still under wraps, but buzz suggests it will be a family-oriented film with a mix of humour and heartwarming moments. Christmas, a time for family gatherings and celebrations, could provide the perfect setting for audiences to flock to theatres for this flick.

With this strategic scheduling, Jio Studios not only aims to maximize viewership but also sets the stage for setting new box office records. As the second half of 2024 approaches, movie enthusiasts have much to look forward to, and Jio Studios' holiday trio will undoubtedly be at the centre of cinematic excitement.
