Abbas-Mustan's '36 China Town' will release before Priyadarsan's 'Chup Chup Ke'. The common factor in both the films is the Shahid Kapoor - Kareena Kapoor combination and that both the films have music by Himesh Reshammiya. One is a thriller; the other is a romantic comedy.
While '36 China Town' is scheduled to release in May, U T V will rumouredly release its musical, 'Chup Chup Ke' in June or July, so that there is sufficient gap between both the Shahid-Kareena starrers. 'Chup Chup Ke' also stars Neha Dhupia, Paresh Rawal and Om Puri.
