Mughal-e-Azam is the first film to release in India on Friday. The film was released on August 5, 1960. After this, the process of releasing new movies started on Friday. And producers release their films on Fridays? . But there are some major reasons behind their decision. Friday is considered an auspicious day in India. It is also considered as the day of Goddess Lakshmi. There are many people who believe that if there is Goddess Lakshmi there will be no poverty. That's why many producers prefer to release their movies on Fridays. Many people choose Friday not only for the release of movies but also for momentary shots. Producers believe that opening/releasing a movie on this day will bring profits. Another reason for this is that it is a weekend. Many companies offer Saturday and Sunday holidays. Everyone will be in the weekend mood from Friday. If the movie is released today, the audience will come to the theaters on Saturday and Sunday. Due to this the movie will get huge collections.🎥🎭
