According to a leading tabloid, producer Ritesh Sidhwani has gone on record to state that since co-producer and actor Farhan Akhtar was not very pleased with the second half of the script, the film has been delayed in order to make the necessary changes.

Farhan apparently wants some sequences in the script to be re-written and once the final draft is in place, the shooting will begin, but not in November since it is too early.

This is for the first time that Shah Rukh and Farhan will be sharing screen space. They had worked together for the remake version of 'Don' and its sequel 'Don 2', where Farhan was involved in the project as a producer while SRK played the main lead.

Based in Gujarat, the film will see Shah Rukh play the head of a mafia gang.
