GHAYAL ONCE AGAIN POSTPONED…ONE FRIDAY GOES WASTE!
It was last Tuesday (January 5) that the makers of Ghayal Once Again decided to postpone the release of their film from January 15 to February 5. The exact reason is not known but it led to a very peculiar situation. In an industry where filmmakers fight for Fridays and end up clashing their films with each other, there’s no major release scheduled for tomorrow. Only one film hits screens from tomorrow – Chalk N Duster, starring Juhi Chawla, Shabana Azmi and Divya Dutta.
What’s also interesting to note that the next 2 Fridays will see major clashes. While Airlift will clash with Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3 on January 22, Mastizaade and Saala Khadoos will release together on January 29. Out of these 4 films, at least one of them could have shifted their date to January 15. If the makers of Ghayal Once Again had postponed their film even a day or two earlier, this could have been possible. Moreover, Wazir has failed too. So the film releasing today would have got sufficient screens.
Our industry really has to catch up when it comes to planning. Until that happens, clashes will keep on happening, films will keep getting postponed. In short our industry will keep getting Ghayal Once Again
