Bollywood actor Salman Khan's next movie 'Mental', directed by brother Sohail Khan has been in news for all sorts of reason. First the confusion about the leading lady until they settled for Tabu, Daisy Shah and Sana Khan. The title was an issue and then the release date. There were reports that Sohail and Salman Khan were not happy with the title 'Mental'. Sohail rubbished all such rumours and told Emirates24|7, "It is a satire and we perfectly believe that it is the right title ('Mental') and is complementary to the script". Speculations on the release date during Eid festival have been doing the rounds but Sohail is a cool customer. He believes in completing his task and wants to focus on the creative side rather than getting bogged down with such issues.Speaking exclusively to Emirates24|7 in Dubai, where he was shooting for a property promo, Sohail Khan killed speculation about an Eid release. 'Mental' has completed four schedules and Sohail gave us a tentative date, "The movie will be released in January 2014".

Sohail was inspired by the Telugu hit 'Stalin' and decided to make 'Mental' starring his brother Salman Khan in the lead along with Tabu, newcomer Daisy Shah and Sana Khan. For the past three years Salman has been delivering consecutive hits at the box office, creating a new benchmark in the industry. His movies have also been fetching record breaking revenue for the makers. Their younger brother Arbaaz Khan has been lucky to cross the 100 crore (INR) mark when he directed Salman in his last two movies 'Dabangg' and 'Dabangg 2'. Talking about the pressure of delivering similar results, Sohail said, "Whenever Salman is there (in a movie) and if you don’t deliver Rs100 crore then it is a matter of concern. “But now I am not chasing any figure. I am enjoying my role as a director and I want my brother to be proud of me."
