Instead of the two films opening on October 19 as per schedule, the two producers have taken a joint decision to release their respective films a day ahead, on October 18. Ayushmann Khurrana, now identified with quirky comedies and fresh on the heels of the success of his last release "Andhadhun", plays the lead. "Namaste England" is the breezy follow-up to the 2007 hit "Namastey London", with Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra taking the place of Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif.
