 Mumbai: Filmmaker Karan Johar was today
assured by Mumbai Police Commissioner D Sivanandan that his
upcoming film 'My Name is Khan' will have "full protection"
ahead of its release on February 12.
The Shah Rukh Khan starrer faces threat from Shiv Sena
after the party took objection to actor's comments supporting
the inclusion of Pakistani players in IPL.
"We came here with the exhibitors to get a personal
assurance from the police. Everything is on board and we will
be releasing the film on February 12. Advances opened
yesterday and continue to open today," the 37-year-old
filmmaker told reporters after a meeting with Sivanandan.
Johar met the police chief along with film's
distributor, FOX Searchlight and multiplex owners.
"We have an assurance from Sivanandan saheb that we
will have full protection at all places and locations. There
is no issue and it's all fine. Advances open, our film is
releasing, it's all good," he added.
Johar, who has co-produced the film with Khan, refused
to comment when asked whether he had a meeting with Sena
supremo Bal Thackeray.
"We would just like to talk about the release of the
film," Johar said.
