Film was supposed to start in January then February and nowit should start in March. If film gets completed in 60-70 days flat then withtwo months of post production it can eye release date on Eid. But there are fewglitches with that too.
Ekta Kapoor has locked Eid for her much awaited OUATIM 2 starring Akshay -Imran. We all know that Salman does not like clashes and henever had one in last few years. And if tries to capture 15th August then againfew issues.
Prakash Jha's multistarrer "Satyagraha" isschedule to release same day and even if it shifts to 23rd August then SubhashGhai's "Kaanchi" and Santoshi's Shahid starrer "Phata PosterNikla Hero" will spoil the party. Plus15th August release will be leftwith only one open week.
To compound this confusion further, U TV is also eyeing August holiday for Shahrukh starrer "Chennai Express". But that isalso not 100% sure. But one thing is sure that Salman's "Mental" willeither clash or it will be a non holiday release.
As per the sources close to the film, it should release inAugust as makers are confident of film's content. It is rather different filmwhich Salman trying after years. So other makers beware, "Mental"will blow away all at box office.
P.S. - Leading lady for the film has been locked couple ofdays back.Rumor mill has it that her surname is "Shah". We will keepyou updated on this.
