Paanch, Khullam Khulla Pyaar Kare releases postponed

Though Tutu Sharma was still to complete dubbing of Paanch and Khullam Khulla Pyaar Kare, he still went ahead and announced the release date of the films.

Tutu had planned to release both the films on March 29, but the Gujarat tragedy now has forced him to change plans. He says that the Gujarat crisis and its fallout -- the postponement of exams -- has compelled him to delay the release of both the films.

Khullam Khulla... and Paanch will now release in April.

Star Wars: Episode II trailer releases

The fourth and final trailer for Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones has been released via the official Star Wars website.

All signs at this stage seem to suggest that the film, released on May 16, will be less of a stinker than The Phantom Menace.

The trailer, featuring an hugely impressive climactic battle scene, includes multiple Jedi lightsaber action with Samuel L Jackson (as Mace Windu) and Christopher Lee (as the menacing Count Dooku).
