Govinda is all set to be back as the leading hero in his upcoming film Aa Gaya Hero. He was about to release the film on February 24, but he pushed it to March 3, 2017.

Now, we heard that the movie has been postponed further to March 17. Talking about it to a popular daily, a source revealed, "Since Kill Dil and Happy Ending didn’t work, Govinda is moving ahead very cautiously. From changing the title of the film to pushing the release date to avoid a clash with other productions, Govinda is trying hard to save his film this time round. Since two other films are releasing on March 3, Aa Gaya Hero has been pushed to March 17."

We contacted Govinda to confirm the news about the March 17 release, to which he stated, "My movie is releasing not on March 17, but is hitting the screens on March 16. I was not getting many theatres. I want more theatres to be available for my film. As two movies (Commando 2 and Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai) are releasing on March 3, I wasn't getting theatres."

As March 16 is a Thursday, we further quizzed the actor about releasing the film on a day before. He added, "Yes I am releasing my movie a day before. Even if I have to buy a theatre and release my movie, I will. So, I will be coming on March 16."

Aa Gaya Hero is directed by Dipankar Senapati.
