`Guzaarish` to be released in Peru next month

Mumbai: Makers of the Hrithik Roshan-Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer `Guzaarish`, which failed to do well at the box office, have now decided to release the movie in Latin America.

The film had been released in India in November 2010 and producers UTV Motion Pictures will be releasing it in Peru (Latin America) in February 2012, a statement issued by the company said. "Latin America, as a new market, is a focus for us. The Indian population is limited in Peru, which makes it significant to have a release for the film there. We are looking forward to the release in Peru," UTV Motion Pictures, Senior Vice President, International Distribution and Syndication, Amrita Pandey, said in a statement here. Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s `Guzaarish` explored the life of a paraplegic and deals with another serious issue, euthanasia. The film had failed to garner attention of the audience, but Hrithik`s performance was appreciated by all. UTV, who is also co-producing `Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu` with Karan Johar, will be releasing the Spanish trailer of the movie across the theatres in Peru. The romantic-comedy film directed by Shakun Batra features Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor in the lead and is up for release in February 10. "There have been enquiries on `Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu` from the region. We hope the Spanish trailers for `Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu` will pave a way for releases of new movies in the near future," Pandey said.
