Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta, who's busy filming underworld drama Shootout At Wadala, says he has pushed the film's release to next year as he doesn't want it to clash with Talaash and Dabangg 2. "Our original release date was Dec 7. Later Talaash was announced for Nov 30 release. So it's obvious that after an Aamir Khan full-fledged mainstream film releases after almost three years, distributors and exhibitors will block the theatres for no less than two weeks," Gupta said at an event here Tuesday.
"Next may be Dabangg 2, which have been announced for Dec 24. So we needed to search for a later date because Shootout... may be an equally big film. We're mature to know that let's not eat into each other's business," added the director who has made films like Kaante, Zinda, Dus Kahaniyaan.
An screen adaptation of Mumbai police's first registered gun battle, Shootout At Wadala stars John Abraham as gangster Manya Surve and in addition has Anil Kapoor, Sonu Sood, Manor Bajpayee, Tusshar Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut within the cast.
