Rajinikanth
starrer
Tamil
film
Kuselan's
flop
has
definitely
affected
Shahrukh
Khan.
Not
to
take
any
chances,
he
has
decided
to
push
ahead
his
produced
film,
Billoo
Barber
(based
on
the
same
Malayalam
film
that
Kuselan
was)
to
February
2009.
Sources
tell
us,
"Billoo
Barber
was
confirmed
for
a
Diwali
2008
release
but
it
is
now
going
to
come
anytime
between
January
end
to
mid
February.
There
are
two
songs
to
be
shot
and
also
there
are
some
scenes
that
are
being
re-shot.
This
re-shooting
is
being
especially
done
to
avoid
mistakes
that
Kuselan
had.
The
film
was
not
well
received
by
even
the
most
ardent
of
Rajinikanth
fans.
SRK
doesn't
want
the
same
to
happen
to
his
film.
He
is
also
making
sure
the
length
of
his
film
is
not
very
long
like
Kuselan
(180
minutes)
was."
"One
more
reason
for
the
postponement
is
that
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi
directed
by
Aditya
Chopra
is
slated
for
a
December
12th
release.
Shahrukh
doesn't
want
to
bring
both
his
films
almost
together
and
end
up
over
exposing
himself.
We
all
know
how
much
SRK
goes
all
out
of
his
way
to
promote
his
films.
It
may
result
in
two
much
too
soon
for
him
if
he
brings
both
films
in
a
gap
of
weeks
and
SRK
knows
it
well.
The
industry
talk
is
that
Adi
Chopra's
film
is
a
safer
bet
for
SRK
as
his
next
release
because
Billoo
Barber
is
unlike
any
previous
Shahrukh
Khan
starrer
film.
It's
a
very
serious
film
and
no
one
can
predict
its
fate
at
the
box
office.
The
Yash
Raj
film
however
marks
the
return
of
Aditya
Chopra
to
direction
after
a
long
gap
of
8
years
and
is
much
more
anticipated
by
SRK
fans
than
Billoo
Barber," the
source
adds
before
concluding.
