Rajkumar Hirani hurts Anurag Kashyap

Director Anurag Kashyap is really upset with Rajkumar Hirani for not letting him know about the change in the release date of P.K. (Peekay). Kashyap has had plans to come out with his most ambitious project, Bombay Velvet on Christmas, this year, and now, even Aamir Khan starrer P.K. is scheduled to be out on the same day.

Anurag said, “All it would have taken is a phone call. I heard the rumours and called Raju to tell him that if they were indeed planning a Christmas release to please let me know in advance. At that point, they said there were no such plans.” The maker felt hurt when he came to know that the P.K.’s release date has been pushed from June 6 to December 25.
Kashyap further said that he is not worried about the numbers of the film at the present stage. He stated, “Right now, I am focused on making a spectacular film. I'm not concerned about the marketing blitzkrieg at this point. It's obvious that both films will be affected if they release on the same day. We may sort that out at a later stage.”
