He usually leaves it to the experts. But he is very excited about Acid Factory as he is playing a very different character. He is confident that the film will benefit him as an actor, and so he is going out of his way to ensure that it gets a good release."
A first timeThe source further adds, "He recently saw a rush print of the film, after which heu00a0 called Ajay Bijli the head of PVR Cinemas in Delhi and requested him to push this film in all his cinemas nationwide. Bijli sent his marketing team from Delhi the next morning and signed on the film in the capacity of theatre partner. PVR aren't distributing the film but this is probably the first time they've signed on such a deal."
Director Suparn Varma confirms, "I have worked with Fardeen in the past and have never seen that kind of excitement in his eyes like he had when he finished watching Acid Factory the other day. He did call Ajay and got them on board."
The release date of the film has been moved a week forward to October 9. the film was first going to hit cinemas on October 2 with Wake Up Sid. But David Dhawan moved the release date of Do Knot Disturb to the same weekend from September 25.
On the moving of the release date, Varma adds, "We made a decision to move it because the audience would have been divided into three groups. Now we are coming on October 9 and I am very happy about that."u00a0
