It is said that when Amitabh Bachchan enters the scene everyone in the industry makes way for him. But not this time! The release of Big B starrer Alladin has been delayed and the reason cited is Aamir Khan's Ghajini.

AB plays the role of a genie in Sujoy ghosh's Alladin and it is said that the film aims at children.

The shooting of the film has also been complete and they were planning to release the film in Christmas which is the right time for the target audience.

But ever since Aamir Khan rescheduled the release date of his film Ghajini because of his illness the makers of Alladin has no choice but to delay the release to February.

However Sujoy has a different version to narrate. "Mr. Bachchan has no competition and we are not worried. We are yet to finish a promotional song with Mr. Bachchan and since he was busy with The Unforgettables we could not manage to do so.

The film also targets the kids and we needed an appropriate release. We had to reschedule the shooting dates and hence the delay."
