No biggies due for a month
Many changes have taken place to the release plans of last week’s scheduled releases. Jabbar Patel’s Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar which was scheduled to be released on December 1 has now been postponed for December 8. MF Husain’s Gaja Gamini is set for release this Friday without much fanfare. The business of other films has not been encouraging. Since Ramzan will start from next week, the chances of films doing any better is also doubtful. Besides, no big films are slated for release in the coming month.
