Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment’s joint production My Name Is Khan release is being postponed now to Feb, 2010.
If the strong buzz going around in the trade circles is to be believed, then Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment’s joint production My Name Is Khan might not release in Dec 2009, as it had earlier been scheduled.

Its release is being postponed now to Feb, 2010.

Sources tell us, “The on-going producers v/s multiplex stand off has thrown the scheduled releases dates of many a biggies off the hook. The nearly two and a half months that have been wasted due to the strike is likely to create a heavy rush of releases at the box office once the issue sorts out.

The makers of biggies have already begun plans to tread cautiously, if such circumstances arrive. It would mean hara-kiri to release big ticket films together, by letting their films cut into each other’s business. The reworking of release schedules of their films and pushing them ahead has already started taking place.

So, most of the earlier scheduled big ticket June releases are now coming either in July or in August. Similarly, those earlier planned for August will now be pushed ahead to Oct-Nov, what with the month of Ramzan starting in August, which generally sees no big release.

Karan Johar’s Rensil D’Silva directed and Saif-Kareena-Vivek Oberoi starrer Qurbaan has been planned for a November end release. With the heavy dates shuffling happening, there may be a change in release date for it as well, and might get pushed ahead by a week or two.

My Name Is Khan was originally scheduled as a mid December release, which was at least two weeks before Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots‘ release.

But with all this happening, it seems less likely that KJo and SRK would be able to squeeze-in their film in between Qurbaan and 3 Idiots which are releasing on December 25th. So perhaps, by taking a safer route, they must be intending to release it in early 2010.”

If this happens, then SRK won’t have any major release in 2009, and his only release would be Dulha Mil Gaya, which has him in an extended special appearance.
