Saturday, 14th June 2014, 06:00 PM IST Earlier, Anees Bazmee's John Abraham starrer 'Welcome Back' was scheduled to release along with Rajkumar Hirani's Aamir Khan starrer film 'P.K.' on December 19 this year. However, one now hears that Bazmee is willing to shift to another date, as he wants to avoid unnecessary competition. Talking about this he said, "My producer Feroz Nadiadwala wants us to stick to our December 19 release date. But I see no point in a box office tussle. I’m going to convince him to opt for another release window." He further added, "I have my own audience. But why get into an unnecessary tussle at the box office? It is bound to damage one or the other film. I’d rather wait for another opportune Friday." Praising his counterpart, Bazmee said, "Raju Hirani is a very fine writer and director. On top of that, he is back with his '3 Idiots’ leading man Aamir Khan. So there’s bound to be fireworks at the box office. Why take the risk of getting burnt? I am in no hurry. I have no ambition to create a dhamaka for Christmas. Any Friday will work as long as another big film is not lined up for the same day." Anees Bazmee's 'Welcome Back' also stars Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar and Shruti Haasan in pivotal roles. |
