Vashu Bhagnani obeys Aamir's orders; postponess son's debut release

Once, Aamir Khan takes up a cause, he sees it through. Last week, the actor called producer Vashu Bhagnani and talked him out of his plans of defying the strike against the multiplexes so he could release his son Jackky Bhagnani's debut film Kal Kissne Dekha.

According to eyewitnesses, Vashu, who has been going all out to market and promote his son's debut film for a May 29 release, got a call in the middle of a show in Ahmedabad on Thursday night.

Vashu was seen having a long, earnest conversation while Kareena performed. Apparently, that conversation changed the entire course of Vashu's plans.

Vashu, who was adamant about releasing his son's film on May 29, now says, "I will never go against the wishes of the film fraternity. My son's release is important. But the film industry is far more important." Vashu admits he changed his mind after a long conversation with Aamir.

"He called and enquired if he had heard correctly about my son's film's release on May 29. Yes, he was a little concerned. I can't reveal all the details of our conversation. But yes, I told him if he wants, I'll postpone the film."

This, after pouring so much time, effort, energy and money into the debutant's marketing?

"Why not? We've planned events all over the country. Those, I see as promotions for my son. Not for his film. And even if I lose a lot of money in publicity, I'll postpone the May 29 release if Aamir and the rest of the producers' forum decides to."
