Magento 1.9 remove time from order confirmation

Question

In my order confirmation, I have this code

echo Mage::helper('core')->formatDate($_order->getData('created_at'),Mage_Core_Model_Locale::FORMAT_TYPE_MEDIUM, true);

and the output is Order date: 16/03/2017 12.27.21

How do I remove the time from this output? So the correct output I want is Order date: 16/03/2017

Just pass last parameter as false

echo Mage::helper('core')->formatDate($_order->getData('created_at'),Mage_Core_Model_Locale::FORMAT_TYPE_MEDIUM, true);

if you will see function definition then it will be more clear for you. Here it is

in file app/code/core/Mage/Core/Helper/Data.php line number approx 164

public function formatDate($date = null, $format = Mage_Core_Model_Locale::FORMAT_TYPE_SHORT, $showTime = false)
{
}

Hope it helps !! Thanks.
