Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar's plans of opening Lightbox, a special preview theatre, have been delayed as it is not ready yet.

Both Ritesh and Farhan, who co-own production house Excel Entertainment, were supposed to open the plush private theatre with the screening of "Talaash", but the opening has been shifted to next week.

Situated in Mumbai suburb Santacruz, Lightbox is a luxurious theatre with comfortable seats and state-of-the-art technology.

"Ritesh and Farhan were keen to open the preview theatre called Lightbox before the release of 'Talaash'. Work has been going on for almost a year to get the state-of-the-art theatre opened in suburbs. Unfortunately, it gets operational by next week, " said a spokesperson for Excel Entertainment.
