On being asked about it, Hrithik, 42, said, "We have spoken that we are actors and we should leave this to the producers," during a promotional event of ' Mohenjo Daro'. Earlier, speculations regarding the change in 'Kaabil's release date started when SRK told media, "We are in talks with Rakesh ji and Hrithik. Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar and I will talk to them once they are back and then discuss it out."

Sanjay Gupta, however, rubbished the rumours on social media and confirmed that the Hrithik starrer 'Kaabil' would hit theatres on January 26, 2017, as scheduled earlier. It is needless to say that it would be interesting to see the how the producers of both the film would avert this big box-office clash. Both ' Kaabil' and ' Raees' would lock horns with each other on January 26, 2017.
