Ever
since
Billoo
Barber
was
announced
earlier
this
year,
there
have
been
speculations
galore
around
the
month
of
its
release.
There
were
constant
rumours
floating
around
the
release
of
the
film
and
though
there
has
been
a
constant
pull
and
push
around
the
final
timeline,
here
is
an
exclusive
bit
of
information
which
has
just
come
in.
As
per
reliable
sources,
2008
is
now
out
of
question
for
Billoo
Barber
and
ultimately
it
is
going
to
be
January
2009
when
the
film
would
eventually
arrive.
Is
it
Shahrukh
Khan's
health
problem
which
has
resulted
in
the
delay
for
the
film?
Or
is
it
the
December
release
of
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi
which
is
causing
Shahrukh
Khan
to
space
out
the
two
films?
"Not
really",
says
a
source
on
condition
of
anonymity,
"Though
the
specific
reason
is
yet
to
be
nailed
down,
one
of
the
major
causes
of
worry
is
arrival
of
half
a
dozen
biggies
which
are
expected
in
the
months
of
November
and
December.
Golmaal
Returns
arrives
in
October
end,
November
sees
Dostana
and
Yuvraaj
while
December
already
has
three
biggies
-
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi,
Chandni
Chowk
To
China
and
Ghajini."
But
with
Shahrukh
Khan
heading
the
film's
cast,
why
the
cause
for
worry?
"There
isn't
really
a
cause
for
worry
but
it
always
helps
to
arrive
when
there
isn't
too
much
of
crowd",
reasons
the
source,
"And
then
one
major
factor
which
needs
to
be
considered
is
that
though
Billoo
Barber
is
a
Khan
film
but
it
is
not
Shahrukh's,
it
is
Irrfan's.
Now
it
won't
be
fair
to
pitch
a
film
with
Irrfan
Khan
in
lead
amidst
all
the
mainstream
biggies."
With
Dilli
6
being
the
only
confirmed
biggie
in
the
month
of
January
2009,
it
pretty
much
seems
like
a
wise
move!
