Katrina Kaif's Jagga Jasoos’ release postponed to avoid clash with her other film Phantom?

Katrina Kaif, who had a single release Bang Bang in 2014, will be seen in two films this year — Jagga Jasoos with her rumoured beau Ranbir Kapoor, and Phantom with Saif Ali Khan. Incidentally, the makers of both films were believed to have had zeroed in on the same release date — August 28.
Industry insiders claimed that Phantom, which was supposed to release this April, would hit the big screen only on August 28 and clash with Jagga… making it tough for Kat to balance the promotions of the two films.
However, another source pointed out that Jagga Jasoos director Anurag Basu was yet to wrap up the final shoot schedule after which the film would go into post production. “So, it had to be pushed ahead and will no longer clash with Kabir Khan’s Phantom,” the source adds.
The actress herself confirms the news. Says Katrina, “Jagga… has been pushed ahead.” The film is being co-produced by Basu and Ranbir.
While the two directors remained unavailable for comment, Phantom’s co-producer Sajid Nadiadwala asserts, “Our film will release on August 28, but I think Jagga Jasoos has moved to a further date.”
Jagga Jasoos to be released on October 2, 2015?

Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif’s Jagga Jasoos is being
pushed yet again. This will be the fourth time that it’s release is
being pushed. Initially, the detective film was supposed to release in
May next year. But then it got pushed to August and now reports suggests
that Jagga Jasoos will hit the screens only in October, 2015.
Apparently, the shooting will wrap up only in March after which VFX work
will begin. The special effects will take a while and once that is
done, director Anurag Basu will move on to the film’s music. They are
looking at releasing on October 2 next year which is a long weekend.Interestingly, Akshay Kumar-starrer Singh Is Bliing was to release in the first week of October but looks like the film won’t be finished till then. Guess that’s another reason why makers of Jagga Jasoos have zeroed down on October 2 as the release date of their film. Also, this year Ms Kaif’s Bang Bang hit the theaters on October 2 and went on to do good business courtesy the long weekend. This date has turned out to be lucky for Katrina once, maybe it will work its charm second time as well, who knows.
