UTV Motion Pictures has locked July 13 as the worldwide release date for Anurag Basu's much-awaited "Barfi!", starring Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Telugu star Ileana D'Cruz.

"Barfi!" narrates the story of a young, cute but shrewd man whom girls adore. He is deaf and dumb, and like a "Chalu Chaplin", a press statement from the production company said.
