Even after having anger or an ego, you have to be humble in real life. But, on screens, you can laugh; you can play with the emotions. It’s fun.”

‘Merry Christmas’ is all set to hit the big screen on January 12, 2024. It was supposed to be released in December but was postponed given that ‘Salaar’ and ‘Dunki‘ were set to release. The trailer revealed that it revolves around two strangers who meet on Christmas Eve and get instantly attracted. However, a nightmare unfolds as an unexpected tragedy occurs.
