After having missed the Eid deadline, Salman Khan is now looking at releasing his upcoming film Mental (directed by brother Sohail Khan) on October 2. The Gandhi Jayanti holiday is followed by the weekend which he feels will help the film. <img alt="Salman Khan" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/feb/Salman-Khan_33.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 757px;" /> By doing so, Sallu will be taking on Abhinav Kashyap&rsquo;s film with Ranbir Kapoor which also releases on the same date. To jog your memory Sallu and his brother Arbaaz Khan had severe differences with Kashyap when he dropped out of Dabangg 2. Moreover Ranbir is dating Salman&rsquo;s ex-girlfriend Katrina Kaif.u00a0 <img alt="Ranbir Kapoor" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/feb/Ranbir-Kapoor_6.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 549px;" /> <img alt="Abhinav Kashyap" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/feb/Abhinav-Kashyap_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 582px;" /> A source says, &ldquo;This time around Salman&rsquo;s film has gone on the floors without any fanfare. Even the cast is being kept under wraps. The shoot has just started in Dubai and although the entire trade expected the film to be wrapped up and released on Eid (July 8), the fact is that Salman is not eyeing Eid this time. Adds the source, &ldquo;Salman intends to kill two birds with one stone, as it is well known that Salman and Abhinav can&rsquo;t see eye -to-eye after Abhinav decided to leave Dabangg 2 in spite of the success of Dabangg. Salman also wants to take on Ranbir now and is not bothered by the fact that his arch enemy Shah Rukh Khan&rsquo;s Chennai Express might release on Eid. &rdquo; The source further said, &ldquo;In the past Salman&rsquo;s God Tussi Great Ho clashed with Ranbir&rsquo;s Bachna Ae Haseeno and Salman was down that time. He does not forget these things easily and now is his time to strike back.&rdquo;u00a0

If Salman Khan releases his film 'Mental' on October 2, he will take on Abhinav Kashyap's 'Besharam' that releases on the same day
