Ra.One probably to interrupt Don 2 release

There’s huge rumours about the release date of Don 2. Of course, producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar and Reliance Big Pictures had locked December as the release date of the film, since Shahrukh Khan’s home-production Ra.One was planned to hit the screens in June, giving a six-month distance between the two releases.

Although SRK has not officially announced the release date yet], one wonders whether Don 2 will stick to the date of December.However, Ritesh Sidhwani turns down any postponement of Don 2. In fact, we will be through with the filming part in February/March itself. We have ample time to devote to the post-production work and marketing of our film,” Ritesh tells me.

The promos of the two films create confusion in the minds of the viewer? “I don’t think so. Both belong to different genres, so there’s no question of overlapping,” he clarifies.
