Haseena Parkar and Bhoomi will be fighting the box office battle as both the film are scheduled to release on September 22. Apoorva stated that both the films are of different genres and hopes them to do well commercially.
"As far as clash with 'Bhoomi' is concerned, Sanju sir is a very close and dear friend of mine. We went to the same school. Both are different films of different genre... We spoke about it and there is no problem. Every week there are three-four films coming so fortunately or unfortunately both films are releasing together," Lakhia told reporters here.
