The brand-new Hindi romantic comedy will be the red carpet gala of the festival’s Celebration of Indian Cinema programme on December 8.

The eighth edition of DIFF, held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, will run from December 7 to 14, 2011.

We are delighted to continue our long-standing association with the Dubai International Film Festival, which has previously hosted the star-studded world premieres of Yash Raj films including Kabul Express and Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year. Ladies vs Ricky Bahl follows the success of our earlier release Band Baaja Baaraat, and is a quintessential Yash Raj Films family entertainer.” – TradeArabia News Service
