SRK extends Om shanthi om release date

Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Shah Rukh Khan have been at good terms and the friendship has only grown strong. Recently Bhansali requested SRK to postpone the release of his Om Shanti Om because Bhansali's "Saawariya" is slated to release in the Diwali week, and our King Khan readily considered the option.

Saawariya, the launch vehicle of Rishi Kapoor's son, Ranbir Kapoor, and Anil Kapoor's daughter, Sonam, has Rani Mukherjee and Salman Khan in it. Rani plays the role of a sex-worker in the movie. Om Shanti Om is a Bollywood extravaganza with SRK playing a Bollywood star, in other words himself! Farah Khan, director of Om Shanti Om, confirms the news, "I cannot comment on the exact release date of our film," she said, adding, "Shah Rukh will have to decide on it. He is in London currently and will take a call once he is back from his London holiday. But I can say one thing - we are looking at a release between Eid and Diwali." Now you know why is SRK, the king khan.
