Newsbreak: Jagga Jasoos Misses Overseas Release

There is more disheartening  news for the already -delayed Jagaa Jasoos. Due to last-minute post-production activities the film has missed its release in UAE, Dubai and Singapore on Thursday.

But the good news is that the film makes it for its  Friday release in the nick of time.

The film’s co-producer Bimal Parekh admits there has been a costly delay. “We could not open in UAE , Dubai and Singapore on Thursdaymorning. We had a choice of opening with the evening shows. But we decided against it. Rather than take  a risk(with the release) we decided to open on Friday along with all the other centres in India and overseas.”

Normally films open in the UAE and Dubai on Thursday.

Parekh  says they could manage the worldwide distribution of Jagga Jasoos  on schedule in spite of the delayed “delivery” of prints only because of the producers Disney’s international reach.

“If it wasn’t for Disney’s marketing I don’t know what we would have done,” Parekh shudders.
