New Delhi: The makers of 'Damru' starring Bhojpuri superstar Khesari Lal Yadav, have announced the release date of the film. 'Damru' will hit the theatres on April 6.

Their chemistry was loved by the audience in the trailer, now they are waiting for the film to release.

'Damru' is helmed by filmmaker Rajnish Mishra, who is known for making unconventional films in the Bhojpuri film industry. Mishra had earlier tried to change the face of Bhojpuri cinema with his film 'Mehendi Laga Ke Rakhna' and 'Main Sehra Baandh Ke aaunga'. He has roped in actor Avdhesh Jha who played the father in 'Main Sehra Baandh Ke aaunga' to play the character of Lord Shiva in 'Damru'.

The film has been produced by well-known producer in the Bhojpuri film fraternity, Pradeep Sharma. A lot of technology has been used to make the film, the post-production of the film has been done in Prakash Jha's studio. The IMDB website has placed 'Damru' in the fifth position after Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus 'Padmaavat'.
