Pooja Chopra shared her feelings about her movie Babloo Bachelor’s release date getting postponed again, thanks to the surge in Covid-19 cases in India.
The 35-year-old actress was beyond disappointed when last year, her promotion of the film came to an abrupt halt due to the global pandemic spreading in India. After a year, she had hoped things would go back to nomal. But they haven’t. And she felt the feeling of Deja Vu.
“This is for the second time that Babloo Bachelor got postponed within a span of a year,” she went on. “It was supposed to release on March 20 last year and I was promoting the film and then suddenly they announced that theatres would be shut.”
“Initially for me I was shocked because I had never heard of something like this. So this is like a déjà vu situation for me because this time again the film was supposed to release on April 16 and history repeated itself with cinemas being shut,” she added.
The Commando actress handled the situation more maturely this time around. Fully supporting the lockdown to control the virus from spreading, Pooja said:
“I wouldn’t want my fans to risk their lives and go to theatres to watch my films because I don’t think it is safe now. If I wouldn’t do it myself, why would I expect others to do? I can’t put their safety at stake. I am okay that it has got pushed gain because more than being an actor, I want to be a responsible citizen of the country.”
The said starlet is currently filming her upcoming movie Jahaan Chaar Yaar in Goa after testing negative.
