Will Abhay see the light of day in Delhi, UP?

Kamal Haasan's latest offering Abhay has not yet had a release in north India, which has left many of his ardent fans fuming. Abhay, and with its Tamil version Adhavallan, was released on November 16 in most parts of India but not in Uttar Pradesh or Delhi.

The film however was to be released on Friday, November 23 but that too was put on hold as the film's producers and its financier went to court to fight things out.

Unless new distributors come forward Abhay, might not see the light of the day.
