Madaari Makers Miffed With Great Grand Masti Preponement?

 The makers of  the sex comedy Great Grand Masti must be congratulating themselves for their quick-thinking strategy of preponing their film after it was leaked online.The film which was to be released on July 22 would now be released on July 15, thereby generating an unexpected competition for Nishikant Kamat’s political thriller Madaari featuring Irrfan Khan.

The high-profile Great Grand Masti producers Balaji Films and  Ashok Thakeria are expected to now block a majority of the screens amd theatres for the sex comedy, leaving Madaari with the leftover outlets on July 15.

While outwardly the Madaari team feigns resignation at the unexpected turn of events a source from the film says angrily, “This is the exactly kind of intrusion that kills the movie business, We had announced Madaari for  July 15three months back.Suddenly this raunchy sex comedy comes to bite us from behind.Not fair!Look what happened to Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale when it insisted on coming in the same Friday as Bajirao Mastani.  ”

However director Nishikant Kamat remains outwardly unperturbed. “Madaari and Great Grand Masti belong to completely different genres. They both have a mutually exclusive audience. As long as they  both get enough screens  they should not affect each other.”

Producer Shailesh Singh admits this is an unexpected setback. “I don’t think the two films are competition for one another. But they are coming on the same Friday.What happened with Great Grand Masti—the online leakage – was very unfortunate. Now the two films will bear the consequences.”
