Actor Ranbir Kapoor starrer 'Jagga Jasoos' is set to release in May next year after IPL.

"Disney's Jagga Jasoos, directed by Anurag Basu, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Govinda, will release on May 29, 2015, the first Friday after the end of the IPL season next year," a statement issued here said.

Despite having a banner like RK Films, Ranbir is co-producing 'Jagga Jasoos' with Anurag Basu and has floated a company with him called Picture Shuru Productions.

Apparently, the film, where Ranbir plays a detective, would be along the lines of 'Sherlock Holmes-meets-James Bond-meets-Mission Impossible' in typical Bollywood entertainer style with right dose of action, comedy and music.
 

Earlier, Ranbir had told PTI that they were planning lot of things for the film, like a TV show called 'Jagga Junior', comic books, animation and cartoons.

He said they are trying to build a brand around the protagonist, so that by the time the film releases everyone is familiar with what 'Jagga Jasoos' is about.
