All three films may be in danger of stolen thunder with this Friday's release, the much-discussed Phantom. Starring Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif, Phantom deals with a post-26/11 Mumbai and has been banned in Pakistan. The director, Kabir Khan, just delivered the blockbuster of the year in the form of Salman Khan's Bajrangi Bhaijaan last month.
