Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor in 'Jagga Jasoos'.

Recently, whispers at Mumbai's Mehboob Studio indicated that filmmaker Anurag Basu's absence from the promotional activities of Jagga Jasoos was not a coincidence. He has been caught up with last-minute patchwork, shooting with Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif's body doubles [to avoid news about the eleventh hour work from spreading] at Film City. However, it didn't take time for word to spread. Even two days before its official release, the final print of the film isn't ready. As a result, Jagga Jasoos will not hit theatres in the GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and UAE) today, which was its official release date.
