Mumbai: Ranbir Kapoor, with his ongoing commitment of Anurag Kashyap's 'Bombay Velvet' and Anurag Basu's 'Jagga Jasoos', doesn't have more dates to accomodate more films. While Vikramjit Singh's 'Roy' produced by Bhushan Kumar was announced for June 20, 2014, it looks like its not going to make it for release on that day.

Bhushan Kumar had plans to shoot at the start of this year but because Ranbir was committed to other films, that didn't happen. Also, leading actress of the film, Jacqueline Fernandez was shooting with Salman Khan for 'Kick' and she too wasn't available at the start of the year. She had to also opt out of Shah Rukh's overseas concert.

However, later it was decided to start shooting the film by April and shoot Ranbir Kapoor's portion in June and push the release to September 2014. But the buzz is that it is not likely to release this year.

An industry source revealed, " Kick too has been off-schedule due to which Jacqueline has to allot more dates to the makers. Also for Ranbir, Jagga is a priority and to finish the dubbing of 'Bombay Velvet' which will release this year. For Roy, he might have to travel to South Africa for as long of 15 days for which he doesn't have the time now."

So with these developments, the makers now to plan to find an alternate release date in 2015. As for Arjun Rampal, there aren't any date issues for the makers.
