Ranbir Kapoor upset with ��Barfii�۪s delay

Ranbir Kapoor & Priyanka Chopra in 'Barfii'

Ranbir Kapoor hasn�۪t been seen much on screen lately. After his award winning act in last year�۪s ��Rockstar�۪, all eyes were on his deaf-mute act in Anurag�۪s Basu�۪s ��Barfii�۪. The UTV production which had been delayed incessantly was finally due to see the light of day on 31st August. But UTV has now delayed its release further to 14th September to accommodate the Akshay-Sonakshi starrer ��Joker�۪ (which will still release as per schedule on��31st��August), and word is that Kapoor is none too happy with this reshuffle.

���The film has taken a long time to finish. Now if the release date is postponed, it would automatically disturb the commitments he made keeping the original release date in mind. Ranbir didn�۪t express any displeasure about the decision, but he is concerned about his schedules�۝ said a source to Hindustan Times.

UTV�۪s decision is perfectly justified of course. Business wise it makes no sense to release two of their productions with top stars on the same day and the post production work for ��Barfii�۪ is still pending.

The postponement of the film might sabotage the schedules of his other releases ��� mainly Ayan Mukerji�۪s ��Yeh Jawani Hain Deewani�۪ (with Deepika Padukone) which is due to release a couple of months after ��Barfii�۪.

���Ranbir might need to cut short the promotions of ��Barfii�۪ to fit in his prior commitments,�۝ the source went on to add.

‘Barfii�۪ recounts the story of Murphy (Kapoor) ��� a deaf, mute character and his love story with an autistic girl Jhilmil (Priyanka Chopra). The film is directed by Anurag Basu and also stars Telugu star Ileana D�۪Cruz as the film�۪s narrator.
