There were reports that Welcome Back that was slated to release on December 19 this year could be pushed to early next year. But according to producer Firoz Nadiawala the release date has not yet been finalised. “It is still not decided whether we will release the film in December or early next year. We shall lock the date in a few days time,” said Nadiadwala. Meanwhile, the last leg of shooting of the film took off in Mumbai last week, part of which will be shot in Kamal Amrohi Studios before the team heads to Dubai on September 26 for a 15-20 day spell. Welcome Back starring Nana Patekar, Naseeruddin Shah, Paresh Rawal, Anil Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, John Abraham and Shruti Haasan is directed by Anees Bazmee.
