MUMBAI: Filmmaker Dinesh Vijay says it was a conscious decision to move the release date of “Ikkis” by a week as he felt the much-anticipated war drama requires space to breathe in theatres.

The film, based on the life of youngest Param Vir Chakra recipient Arun Khetrpal, was earlier slated to release on December 25 but it will now arrive in theatres on January 1, next year.

On Christmas, the film would have clashed with Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday’s “Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri”. Ranveer Singh-starrer “Dhurandhar” is enjoying a good run in cinema halls since its release on December 5, and James Cameron’s “Avatar: Fire and Ash” just released.
