Saturday, 23rd August, 2014, 03:40 PM IST The release of Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma starrer neo noir film ‘Bombay Velvet’ has been pushed ahead. The film was earlier scheduled to release in November this year, but now it has been pushed to mid-2015.
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap in a recent interview justified the postponement saying, “We have just realized that it will take us a long time to finish the VFX which we had not anticipated. I’m recreating a bygone era but I had not imagined that it needs so much of post-production. I’m finally learning what it takes to make a big film.”
A source also seconded him saying, “The Mumbai you will see is very different from the city we know today. It will be January before the VFX is completed. Even the background music is still to be recorded.” However, we have heard that actor Ranbir Kapoor was not happy with the way the final draft of the film turned out. He being a perfectionist did not want to compromise and hence several portions of the film had to be reshot. This is the real reason why ‘Bombay Velvet’ has been postponed. The film will now release in April or May 2015. It would be Ranbir’s first release after ‘Besharam’ (Oct 2013),which turned out to be a major dud. | |||
