The spy film had become one of the first films to have been shot after the pandemic restrictions were lifted. The whole team flew to the United Kingdom to shoot for the movie in August last year. Earlier, Bellbottom was scheduled to see a release in April of 2021 but the outbreak pushed things back.

Kumar has several releases lined up. Bellbottom aside, the actor will be seen in the cop drama Sooryavanshi that is set to come to single screens and non-national multiplexes on 2 April. The Rohit Shetty film marks the comeback of Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif pair. Also, Kumar will be seen essaying the titular role in Prithviraj, announced to be released on Diwali this year.
