Phantom Release Date announced, Jagga Jasoos likely to release on Oct 2

UTV Motion Pictures’ has announced the release date of Kabir Khan’s Phantom. The film starring Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif will release on August 28 2015, the same day as Ranbir Kapoor’s Jagga Jasoos.

A clash between the two films is unlikely to take place, as both films will be distributed by UTV Motion Pictures. We had earlier reported that the makers of Jagga Jasoos are likely to release their film on October 2nd, which sets the film up for a clash with Akshay Kumar’s Singh Is Bling.

A source had earlier told us “There is a lot of VFX work, which needs to be done and the shoot will finish in March. Then Anurag will start working on the music with composer Pritam. So now the makers have decided to release the film in the first week of October as the timing is good and October 2 is a long weekend.”

Phantom releases two weeks after the release of Shahrukh Khan’s Fan. A couple of songs, including one promotional song of the film, are yet to be shot.
