Presented by Tips Films and Matchbox Pictures, the upcoming film is described as "a genre-defying tale" shot in Hindi and Tamil with a different set of supporting actors, according to a press release.
‘Merry Christmas’ was earlier scheduled to be released on December 15.
On its new release date, the movie will face-off at the box office with Dharma Productions' ‘Yodha’, starring Sidharth Malhotra.
Earlier, Karan Johar had even expressed his displeasure about the film’s clash and shared that if the makers had discussed the same, a box office clash could have been reverted.
Taking to Threads, Karan Johar posted, "Clashing on a date without the courtesy of a phone call is hopefully not the way forward for the studios and producers.... If we don't stand united in these tough and challenging theatrical days then calling us a fraternity is futile....(sic)”
While the Hindi version of ‘Merry Christmas’ co-stars Sanjay Kapoor, Vinay Pathak, Pratima Kannan, and Tinnu Anand, the Tamil iteration has Radhika Sarathkumar, Shanmugaraja, Kevin Jay Babu, and Rajesh Williams in the same roles.
The film also introduces Pari, a child actor, added the makers.
Produced by Ramesh Taurani, Jaya Taurani, Sanjay Routray and Kewal Garg, "Merry Christmas" also features cameos by Ashwini Kalsekar and Radhika Apte.
