Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan says that his new heist comedy, "Happy New Year," "can compete with any film internationally."The actor was speaking at the launch of the film's trailer in Mumbai Thursday (14 AUG. 2014). He was joined at the event by director Farah Khan and co-stars, including Abhishek Bachchan and Deepika Padukone.
"I am not showing off," said Shah Rukh Khan.
"It may not do the business of a heist international film, it may not be the time right now for Indian films to take that, but here is the film that in the terms of quality will make every Indian, every one around the world, extremely proud."
Bachchan agrees.
"(With) immense pride I say, after (international filmmakers) see this film they will be competing with us," he said.
"This is the Indian film industry, we're the biggest and the best film industry in the world and let them start competing with us now."
