Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra are gearing up for their second collaboration after Ishqzaade. Namaste England, directed by Vipul Shah, was earlier slated to release on November 19, a day after Dusshera. However, after Ayushmann Khurrana took to his Twitter account to announce the new release date of Badhaai Ho (Oct 18), makers of Namaste England too, decided to follow the suit. Parineeti Chopra informed her fans about the change in the movie's release date and we wonder if their decision was provoked after Ayushmann's big announcement. Not Arjun Kapoor but This Actor Was the First Choice for Namastey England – Guess Who.

October 18 being Dusshera - a public holiday, it's a wise move to release your movie on that day. It would ensure more business for both the movies. Since they both will cater to the family audiences, it's a good decision to change the release date and prepone it by a day instead. Badhaai Ho's official announcement was done yesterday when Ayushmann tweeted the change to his fans. And Namaste England confirmed their same decision today afternoon.

Ayushmann Khurrana is currently on cloud nine after scoring hattricks with Bareilly ki Barfi, Shubh Mangal Saavdhan and AndhaDhun. And the trailer of his next, Badhaai Ho also received some great responses from his fans and viewers. It would be interesting to see if the Vicky Donor star is able to beat Arjun Kapoor in this box office race or his golden run will come to an end with this sequel of Namastey London.
