Swine flu hits 'Kaminey'

The much anticipated film will have a delayed release in Mumbai

What was feared has come to pass. Swine flu scare is taking its toll on Bollywood's new releases this week • Kaminey and Life Partner both of which were eyeing good business at theatres due to the long holiday weekend starting with Janamashtmi on Friday, followed by Independence Day on Saturday.

However, the Maharashtra government has ordered schools, colleges, theatres and multiplexes in Mumbai to close for three days to prevent the spread of swine flu, which means neither 'Kaminey' (starring
Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapur) nor 'Life Partner' (Fardeen Khan, Genelia D'Souza, Tusshar Kapoor and Prachi Desai) would release in the city before Sunday, August 16. This might affect the opening the two films could have got at the box office because both film were to release on about 100 screens in the city.

According to a trade analyst, the industry might have to bear a loss from Rs 3 to 5 crores due to the delay in releases.

However, UTV, the producers of 'Kaminey', are not much worried because the film is riding high on the audience curiosity and there's no big release to give it competition till September 18.
