The film was slated for release around Diwali this year, but may get delayed and in all likelihood release in the first week of January 2008.
While Gowarikar was not available for comment, UTV, the producers of the film, declined to comment on the release date.
Said an industry source, "All decisions are made by Gowarikar, besides, there are quite a few days left for the shooting of the film. A period drama like ‘Jodha Akbar’ will take more than three months for the post production."
The film, that is yet to complete it’s shooting, has been facing logistic problems too. From Hrithik's accident to Ash's unforeseen marriage, the delay factors have marred the shooting of the film.
Also, the fact that multiple releases are proving disastrous at the box-office this year would have prompted the producers to shift the film.
Industry experts indicate that it's been a year of surprise hits and none of the supposedly big films have actually made it good at the box-office.
