Mumbai: Ranbir Kapoor's ‘Bombay Velvet’ will now release in May 2015. The film won't be ready by November 28 given the huge amount of VFX work that is still pending.

Director Anurag Kashyap is recreating the Bombay of the 60s and the makers did not anticipate that the VFX would take so long to complete. The heavy post production will go on till January and the makers have decided to push the release to May.

The romantic thriller is being presented by Fox Star Studios and has been produced by Phantom Films. It also stars Anushka Sharma and Karan Johar. Anurag Kashyap says, "We have just realised that it will take a long time to finish VFX of the film which we had not anticipated. I'm recreating an era gone by and we had not thought that it needs so much post production. I'm finally learning what it takes to make a big film."
