Salman Khan fans are set to have a good day on 5th June 2019 as the much-awaited Bharat, the festival of Eid and the first match for Team India in the Cricket World Cup are all happening on the very same day.

June will be a great month of entertainment quotes the director Ali Abbas Zafar, "India will play and win the first match, and our film will enter cinemas. It’s a great time for entertainment in June”. Ali points out that his film was always planned as an Eid release. “When we announced the film, the World Cup schedule was not out. It’s a coincidence that India’s first match and Eid fall on the same day.”

One of the most anticipated films of the year, Bharat is all set to take the audience on a ride back in the time.

The film stars Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Tabu, Disha Patani, Sunil Grover and Jackie Shroff. It traces India's post-independence history from the perspective of a common man and follows his life from the age of 18 to 70.

Bharat is produced by Atul Agnihotri, Alvira Agnihotri, Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar under the banner of Reel Life Production and Salman Khan Films and releases in cinemas on Eid al-Fitr this year.
