Akshay Kumar-Kareena Kapoor Khan’s upcoming film, Good News, will release on December 27, the makers announced on Saturday. The romantic comedy also stars Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani. Directed by debutant Raj Mehta, the film revolves around the subject of surrogacy. 

December constitutes a crucial month for the Bollywood box-office. On Friday, Salman Khan announced the release date of Dabangg 3 as December 20. Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra, which was initially slated for a Christmas 2019 release date, has been pushed to Summer 2020 due to pending post-production work. Other films releasing this December are Ashutosh Gowarikar’s period epic Panipat and Mudassar Aziz’s romantic comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh. 

Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Khan last worked together in Kambakkht Ishq (2009). They portray a married couple in Good News. The film is co-produced by Dharma Productions and Viacom18 Motion Pictures.
