Sooraj Barjatya's Uunchai, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Anupam Kher, Boman Irani, Neena Gupta, Sarika, Danny Dengzongpa, and Parineeti Chopra, was released on 11th November 2022. The film received a good response from critics and is still running in cinemas. The makers have decided to postpone the digital release. Read the statement below:
We, the cast and crew of Rajshri's "Uunchai," would want to thank each and every one of you for the overwhelming love showered upon our film. A special shoutout to every member of the audience who went to the theatre with family and loved ones and contributed to making "Uunchai" an exclusive BIG screen experience.
As "Uunchai" continues to run in theatres in its 4th week, we as a unit stand proud and humbled. It is the desire of our hearts to see "Uunchai" have a strong and long run at the theatres and therefore, "Uunchai" will not have an online release very soon.
We gave "Uunchai", 7 years of passion, hard work and above all love! From its conception to its release, every day, we have kept you, our audience in mind and have crafted an experience that we would want you to cherish and remember! The experience of watching a film on the big screen is simply magical! Watching a pirated version of the film on your electronic devices or delaying your watch, waiting for the film to be released online, would mean robbing yourself of this magical experience."
"So, step out today, go to a theatre near you. Take family and friends along. Relive the experience of buying tickets. Celebrate "Uunchai", celebrate films and theatres again with movie lovers known and unknown! Fill up the theatres with your love for films! As makers, your entertainment is our only motivation. See you at the theatres!
