Yash Raj Films’ has announced the release date of Shahrukh Khan’s Fan. The Maneesh Sharma directed film will release during the Independence Day weekend in 2015.
Interestingly, it won’t be an Eid release for Fan, as Eid-Al-Fitr falls on 17th July 2015. Instead, YRF have decided to release the film on Friday, August 14 2015, giving the film two holidays over the course of its 3-day weekend.
What do you think of the release date of Fan? Tell us!
Official press release from Yash Raj Films
Shahrukh Khan, the man unarguably with one of the greatest fan following globally, will now play the role of being the biggest fan himself in the forthcoming Yash Raj Films movie, FAN. The film begins shooting July 2014 and the actor has begun work on the film.
The renowned special effects makeup maestro, Greg Cannom, who started work on developing Shahrukh’s look for the film, spent considerable time at the Studio recently with the actor, Director, Maneesh Sharma and Producer, Aditya Chopra.
Greg, who really doesn’t need an introduction, has been nominated for nine Academy Awards and has won an Oscar three times for the memorable looks he created in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” (2008), “Mrs. Doubtfire” (1993) and “Dracula” (1992), apart from several other prestigious awards. In 2005, along with Wesley Wofford, he received a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy for the development of special modified silicone material used for makeup applications in motion pictures.
Speaking about the look, Maneesh said, “We are attempting a never-seen before look for Shahrukh which will be both challenging for us and exciting for the viewer. Understandably, this will be kept under wraps till the first look of the film is revealed.”
Directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra, FAN has been written by Habib Faisal, and goes on floor mid-2014.
Chaak de india released 14th aug 2007 n now Fan will release 14 aug 2015, i hope Fan will become another cdi
Raees should postpone from eid n may release during christams
It means Raees won’t release on Eid because there is only one month span between two festivals. So kabir khan’s film with Salman khan release solo on eid 2015
Leaving box office records aside I really want FAN to be a good film like Chak De! India.
wow sure shot BB by SRK and the TEam wiss you a good luck my king…..:*
Raees will release 25th dec.
Hope the film is good,with a nice story…
Fan will be blockbuster,as it has got a very good release date…
already ppl dislike his look. you are going to give another make-over???thats HORROR!! and flop..
@indicine
When will RAEES release then?i am waiting for raees more than fan…
Raees may release in christmas as Aamir has no films in his bag after PK.
@ indicine thank you for your reply but in simple words i just want to ask is the verdict of above average makes a movie successful or not . For example movies like Gangaajal, Apaharan, All The Best were given the verdicts of above average whether they were successful or not please reply . It will be very kind if you reply .
In short, yes, they were fairly successful films.
Good luck for Fan and Rees..but dont forget before that is Happy New Year…GO SRK King Khan ! Make your stuped idiotic hatters very angry and jealous…again :)
Salman Khan – eid and diwali
Fan – 14th Aug 2015
Shuddhi – Christmas
Seriously,now it seems that the Khans and Hrithik will not release their films on non-holidays in upcoming years and their fans think that they have more star power than this and that.Even if Akshay’s film collects 20cr on non-holiday,the Khans and Hrithik are not greater than Akshay sir and Akshay sir is far popular than half of them.Now Salman has become like working for BO records and that’s why Akshay sir said that you will find BO papers and articles in his room on kwk
Release date is great since it’s going to have 2 holidays in 3 days but it’s a long wait after HNY.
If its content is as half as gr8 as cdi/3i/swades ,then no doubt that it would blast at bo ,giving collection seen never b4.!!!!!! Minimum 300 cr. Remember it is a eid releas (like ett)
It seems SRK knows EID will be booked by Salman the King. So be is scared.
Also releasing same date as OUTIMD, it will have similar fate and will struggle to cross 80 crores.
15 August is FRIDAY, not 14… I’m excited for FAN and RAEES.
releasing on pakistani independent day.why not on independent day of india ?
Pakistani sala, isko desh se bhagav..
so its confirmed srk is afraid of salman.. salman had booked eid 2015 way back in 2013
Hahaha, still 3.7 billion fan star looking for weekend who has 2 holiday in 3 days that too when he is working his safe banner Yrf, if Salman film with Kabir khan will released on EID In jul 2015 than there is not too much chance for huge collection in Aug, yes if content is solid like Cdi than we definitely like to have huge success with many record broken. Lets see movie will turnout CDI or JTHJ (complan boy favorite film).
@romance dear that was CDI in which National game and Indian pride attached to that while in fan it is imaginable and srk is center in the film as a bollybuff. Don’t insult Comparing classic with Fan which still has to release and contains no patriotism. You can say movie will be BB like Cdi but in clear manner.if release date is the matter than Ra1 released on 25th oct and HNY have to release on 23rd oct so weekend contains 25th oct date. So does it means HNY will be next Ra1. today i get a proof of complan effect on our boy @sss as he predicted 200 cr weekend collection of HNY So 2x effect so soon we will see 5x effect and the prediction will reach to 500cr weekend collection for HNY. So finally complan works. Kudos to makers of this.
THIS EID,there will be clash of 2 big stars.this time again DON vs jaaneman or CE vs 3releases will happen.now people will see what happens when a clash happens between people’s made GLOBAL SUPERSTAR and south remake made film background star.after all KING IS KING,any dabang or chabang is nothing in front of him.now SRK directly attacked salman’s house by clash with him.salman couldn’t survive in front of THE KING OF CLASH.during ett,it’s YRF helped sallu a lot,but this time he will realise.also RAEES may release on DEEWALI clash with loser ratan ki bajao,I mean how interesting,salman again at his peak of destruction.yes sallu’s eid release will just like OUATIMD2 or one of 3releases,now to all salman fans,KING already entered salman’s home,now no one could save sallu.this film is dedication for FANS like us,hats off to you MY KING,we all love you.yes if someone has doubt,just read there “SRK- the man has unarguably has greatest fan following globally”.now bhojpuri stars will cry in front of GLOBAL SUPERSTAR for holiday and I want to tell sallu fans,this is what your position in front of us.
One more double century from king khan come’s on 14th aug 2015
this guy always need big production house or proved or star herione director dont bring darr,baazigar tht yahs chopra already big directors gav monumental hits to amitji and abaas mastan already gav big hit khiladi…his fans talk of swades and chak de india…before swades ashutosh gowaikar gave oscar entry film and again chak de india under YRF banner..
THATS REALLY GOOD NEWS FAN WILL ROCK AT BO AND NOW WAITING TO HEAR THAT RAEES WILL RELEASE DURING CHRISTMAS
HAPPY TO HEAR THAT
THATS REALLY GOOD NEWS FILM WILL ROCK AT BO AND NOW WAITING TO HEAR RAEES RELEASE DATE
