This development is sure to raise eyebrows and is sure to be talked-about by avid moviegoers within and outside the film industry. And, as always, Bollywood Hungama has it first!
The keenly awaited Aamir Khan starrer TALAASH, which was slated for release on 1 June, has been postponed. Yes, you read it right. Though the film is complete and the post-production would also conclude much before the due date, the producers, Ritesh Sidhwani, Aamir Khan and Farhan Akhtar, have decided to push the release of the film ahead.
What’s the reason for rescheduling the release date? “Aamir is occupied with his television show, which is starting around the same time. The perfectionist and uncompromising person that he is, Aamir will be left with little time on hand to promote TALAASH. Since TALAASH is the actor’s next big release after 3 IDIOTS, we mutually decided to push the release of the film forward. Besides, Aamir will have sufficient time on hand to promote the film,” producer Ritesh Sidhwani confirmed to this writer.
So what’s the new release date of the film? “It’s 30 November. We are looking at releasing the film after Diwali,” Ritesh divulges.
Latest Update: With ‘Talaash’ slated for 30 November, UTV & Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Akshay Kumar – Sonakshi Sinha starrer ‘Rowdy Rathore’ to release on 1 June.
Update: Kunal Kohli’s Shahid Kapoor – Priyanka Chopra starrer most probably releasing on 1 June. First trailer with ‘House Full 2’.

So its releasing on Nov 30 two weeks after SRK’s Yash Chopra movie.
hmm…. it will probably be a repeat of rab ne vs ghajini – promotions will overlap and then Aamir will release a excellent trailer during Yash Chopra’s cliched love story (most probably). Talaash will get all shows at multiplexes and no matter what SRK’s movie collections may be affected.
This should make both Aamir and SRK fans very excited 😉

Aamir Apologises To His Fans’
Yesterday, Box Office India, was the first to break the news that Aamir Khan has decided to postpone the release of his next film Talaash. Later, one of the producers of the film, Ritesh Sidhwani, announced that Talaash will release on November 30.
Today too, as is tradition with Aamir Khan on his birthday, the actor met the media and explained why Talaash’s release has been postponed. “I’m really sorry to my fans that they have to wait for my films. But it is not that we are teasing them. I know we were initially supposed to release in January, then June and now November. The actual release date of the film is still not confirmed. It is either November 30 or December 7. The reason we delayed the film was that the set of my TV show got burnt down and its direct impact fell on Talaash.”
He added, “Both my TV show and Talaash are very close to me and it was not possible for me to work on both simultaneously. I spoke to director Reema Kagti and my co-producers Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani about the same and they agreed to push the film. With the time on hand, we will come up with something better only for the audience. In the meantime, the audience will get to see me in my TV show.”’
