First and foremost, Friday is considered an auspicious day in many cultures in India. Many people believe that starting a new venture or undertaking on a Friday will bring good luck and success. This belief extends to the film industry, where producers and filmmakers believe that releasing a movie on a Friday will bring them good luck and a successful box office run.

Another reason for the Friday release tradition is that it allows for a longer weekend to build buzz around the movie. Most people have off work on Saturdays and Sundays, so by releasing a movie on a Friday, it allows for more time for people to see the movie and spread the word to their friends and family. This can be especially beneficial for smaller or independent films that may not have as much advertising or promotion behind them.

Additionally, releasing movies on Fridays also allows for more flexibility for movie theaters and multiplexes. By having a set release day, it allows for theaters to better plan their schedules and allocate screens for the new releases. This can lead to increased revenue and better utilization of resources for both the theaters and the film industry as a whole.
