Ash puts Jodhaa... in trouble again
The release of Ashutosh Gowarikar's period drama Jodhaa Akbar has been pushed back again, from February 24 to some time in April. If one remembers, the problems began from day one. Gowariker was keen to release his film on September 12, which got postponed to October 12.
But owing to date problems, the shooting got delayed. Finally, it was ready to hit the theatres on January 25 and later scheduled for a February 15 release.
Now it is heard that the director has been suffering from severe back ache and is bed ridden. And this is not all. The editor of the film has come up with yet another issue. He is unhappy with one of Aishwarya's expressions in the film.
Informs a unit hand, "The director had picturised a war sequence where Aishwarya is seen riding a horse. Ashutosh wanted an aggressive expression on Ash's face but to his disappointment, he realised that Ash was looking frightened instead. But, Gowariker has come up with a solution. Since he cannot re-shoot the scene, he has decided to morph her expression with advance technology."
Our source adds, "I am not sure, if this would further delay the film's release. Gowariker is trying his best not to delay the project any more."
