BILLU BARBER Release Date

Mumbai, London, 24th January 2009: Eros International, the leading
London-listed Indian media and Entertainment Company, will release
worldwide Red Chillies Entertainment's BILLU BARBER on 13th February
2009.

Shahrukh Khan's Billu Barber is a slice of life, a feel-good musical
with elements of romance, comedy and drama produced by Red Chillies
Entertainment where Eros once again joins hands with the King Khan to
release the film worldwide. Starring Irrfan Khan, Lara Dutta and
Shahrukh Khan, this is the first time that SRK and renowned director
Priyadarshan come together.

Billu Barber is a story of a simple ordinary man who led an extra
ordinary life. Bilas Rao Pardesi was living in his village with his
wife Bindiya and two great kids. Life was bitter sweet...we can say
more sweet than bitter. One day a superstar came into their lives and
everything changed. Life changed, people changed, friends changed, the
village changed but one man did not...Billu Barber. Will this ordinary
man redefine the words ordinary? Will the world see the greatness
behind his small existence? And most of all, will life ever be the
same for Billu Barber again?

Commenting on the announcement, Pranab Kapadia, President Distribution
– Europe & Africa, Eros International said, "Billu Barber is an
extension of the fantastic relationship Eros enjoys with Shahrukh
Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment. After the huge success that Eros
and Red Chillies enjoyed with Om Shanti Om, we are excited about
leveraging our global distribution in promoting Billu Barber. With
Priyadarshan's special, the film is bound to touch the hearts of the
audience."
