The trend of blocking holiday release dates, a year or more in advance, continues. Anurag Kashyap has announced the release date of his film with Ranbir Kapoor titled ‘Bombay Velvet’. The film, also starring Anushka Sharma, will release during Christmas 2014.
Anurag’s Phantom Films will be co-producing the film with Fox Star Studios.
“We are delighted to partner with Anurag Kashyap on his next directorial venture ‘Bombay Velvet’. What will make this cinematic journey unique will be the presence of Ranbir and Anushka as the lead protagonists,” Vijay Singh, CEO of Fox Star Studios said in a statement.
Bombay Velvet is set in Mumbai in an era spanning from 1950s to 1970s. It is the first film of a trilogy on how the city became a metropolis.
Anurag has been working on the script for over 4 years and now that it is ready, the director will begin calling the shots from July this year.
No matter how good will be the movie,if it clashes with P.K it will be a sure flop.
@r20 agree with your comment completely.
Ranbir is only good at comic roles everytime he gives the same expression and in serious role he looks funny and in romantic roles he looks like a dumb.
I don’t know why people are not trying to understand. During holidays, ticket prices are hiked and audience won’t pay that much for a non-superstar. Any movie of the Khans, Akshay, Hrithik or Ajay will be perfect for a major holiday/festival release.
