John Abraham announced today that his film Satyameva Jayate 2 will be hitting theatres countrywide on May 14.

Produced by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series and Emmay Entertainment, the Milap Zaveri-directed film is a sequel to the 2018 hit and also features Divya Khosla Kumar.

Abraham shared the news of the film's release date on social media as he celebrated the country's 72nd Republic Day.

"Tann Mann Dhann, se Badhkar Jann Gann Mann! The team of Satyameva Jayate 2 wishes everyone a Happy Republic Day! See you in cinemas this Eid on 14th May, 2021," Abraham captioned the photo, which he shared on his Twitter and Instagram accounts.

In a departure from the original Mumbai setting, Satyameva Jayate 2 will see Abraham fighting corruption in Lucknow.

Last week, Salman Khan had said his much-awaited film, Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai will arrive in theatres on May 13 this year coinciding with Eid. Directed by Prabhudheva, the action drama was scheduled to hit screens during Eid 2020, but was delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

With today's announcement, Radhe and Satyameva Jayate 2 are now poised to clash at the box office this Eid.
