Aamir
Khan
is
planning
to
release
his
next
film,
the
Hindi
remake
of
the
Tamil
blockbuster,
Ghajini,
in
October,
aiming
for
the
big
weekend
that
will
coincide
with
the
'Eid-ul-Fitr'
and
Gandhi
Jayanti
holidays.
Well,
that
is
exactly
how
it
has
turned
out
to
be!
Ghajini
is
now
listed
for
release
on
October
3,
in
reliable
trade
journals.
An
interesting
thing
is
that
the
makers
may
even
go
for
a
mid-week
release,
as
'Eid-ul-Fitr'
may
fall
on
October
1.
However,
Aamir
Khan
may
not
be
the
only
top
star
wooing
the
audience
during
the
bountiful
weekend.
News
is
that
Akshay
'Khiladi'
Kumar,
whose
movies
have
become
a
constant
feature
during
the
'Eid'
period,
is
likely
to
give
him
company.
The
series
of
Akki
films
that
released
during
the
'Eid'
period
goes
something
like
this-
Aitraaz
(2004),
Garam
Masala
(2005),
Jaan-e-mann
(2006)
and
Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
(2007).
The
current
year
is
likely
to
see
Akshay's
action
extravaganza
Chandni
Chowk
To
China
(with
hot
new
sensation
Deepika
Padukone),
release
during
the
festive
occasion.
So,
will
history
repeat
itself,
and
will
the
box-office
witness
double
joy?
Obviously,
we
are
referring
to
the
twin
blockbuster
success
of
Welcome
and
Taare
Zameen
Par,
both
of
which
released
on
the
same
Friday,
during
the
other
'Eid'.
We
are
quite
sure
that
the
answer
will
be
a
definite
yes!
