MUMBAI:We all know that a Bollywood movie usually releases on a Friday and this has been happening for the past many years. One of the reasons behind it is said that Friday is the starting day of the weekend and that’s why a movie is released on that day. 
 
However, we do have stars who don’t follow the Friday release trend for many of their movies. So, today let’s look at the list of actors who let go of this Friday release trend... 
 
Ajay Devgn

Ajay Devgn’s upcoming movie Bholaa will be released on 30th March 2023 which is a Thursday. Last year, his movie Thank God was released on Tuesday (due to the Diwali festival). Before Thank God also, many times, Ajay Devgn’s starrers have been released on other days.
