My OCI application has an acknowledgment for October 4 at Vancouver CGI. So i am keeping my fingers crossed as of now. Looking at the flight cost these days , it certainly would be very hard to get it rescheduled and i want to avoid any more expenses than i already have inccured. But if it comes to that i certainly will look into rescheduling my flight.
Right, waiting/hoping for OCI to come through is the best option at this point. Good luck.

Thankyou for the info. & yes the Travel Date is November 15.
Earlier i was in an assumption that what if my OCI gets processed and the passport remains stuck at the embassy and wasn't sure of the processing timeline. But now looking at the timeline of Entry visa it makes me wonder that had i applied for the visa earlier , it would have been processed as well. But with each passing day i am loosing my chances for the Entry visa as well. Honestly i am not sure what to do ! Maybe i am too hopeful for the OCI and not willing to take risk on the entry visa or may be i am too confused now.
I would be doing the exact same thing as you. You are absolutely right in hoping for OCI to come as you dont want your passport being stuck in between. Hoping and wishing things work out ! Oct 4 ack is the earliest bunch in Vanc jurisdiction waiting to hear any sort of progress.. fingers crossed !!

I have high hopes you will get OCI well in time before your flight. Rest , rescheduling flight can be done 24-48 hours before departure (airlines policy may vary), so wait for one more week
