‘Jazbaa’ to release on October 9

Director Sanjay Gupta’s action-drama Jazbaa, which marks the Bollywood comeback of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan after a gap of five years, will release in India on October 9.

The film, which is currently being shot in Mumbai, also stars Irrfan Khan, Shabana Azmi, Abhimanyu Singh, Atul Kulkarni and Chandan Roy Sanyal and Anupam Kher. The makers are reportedly racing against time to complete the film as they intend to showcase it at the Cannes International Film Festival this year.

“Let the countdown begin! Jazbaa releases October 9th, 2015,” Gupta posted on Twitter.

Jazbaa is written by Kamlesh Pandey and Robin Bhatt.
