I thought I'll throw out my two cents when it comes to some of the discussion here. Maybe it's me but I don't think YRF played dirty when it came to the JTHJ and SOS clash. Not saying they aren't capable of playing dirty. Everyone had known when JTHJ was going to come out so it was SOS that decided to clash with it. JTHJ had started booking the theaters earlier than SOS as they had announced the release date way before it. The Eros team obviously didn't like that fact and went to court and lost the case. Eros did exactly the same thing that they were accusing YRF of when it came to BM. On top of that all this happened after Yash Ji's passing. Things got so dirty that you had Ajay on one hand saying whatever he wanted to about YRF and then Tanisha went a step ahead and tweeted about things when Kajol wasn't invited to the premiere. The tweet was nasty to say the least as she named everyone she could in that tweet and held them responsible for Kajol not being there. She even named Shahrukh, like he was responsible for the guest list or something. So I'm guessing Aditya never expected something like that from Kajol and her family hence the decision to not invite her. Now I'm not saying YRF are saints or anything but that whole situation could have been avoided or at least could have been sorted out in a different manner if both sides had made an effort. Once the case went to court from Eros side then obviously YRF would defend themselves too. Not to mention the support that Ajay took from SK to promote that movie was also played out in the media as Shahrukh vs SK once again.
Anywho...let's see what happens here. I want Raees to release on Eid. As for business being affected of both movies if they come out on the same date...well duhhh! But at the same time Raees was announced for Eid I'm guessing for a solid reason.
