No, now its a ego clash.. and even for aam Janta.. it must in national daily entertainment section as well.

The movie that get head start and gr8 WOM.. the other movie will struggle get screens.. coz in 2nd week.. Distros and theatrewas r already in profits with that first movie. Why wud the reduce the screen for a movie thats going strong?

But if the first movie nose dives Monday onwards, then the next one has HUGE advantage to come on 25th.

Its catch 20-20... no backing off. The real battle will be now which movie will get how many screens. And then WOM..

I like it. In all festive seasons, there must be big clashes. For how long these khans monopoly will be tolerated?

Bring it on.


end of the day Fans will suffer as other fan groups will attack SRK groups for failing to live upto expectations😆 so i already can forsee whats coming on 18th of dec😆

Clash is inevitable, which ever movie is released later would be looser. IF BM is released earlier, and is ringing cash register. No theater, production house will take it down making way for a competition. Theaters go for a sure shot hit, than a possibly a hit. It dosnt make sense for them to take down movies when it is selling like hot cakes. Same happened during chennai express, the production house/ theaters dint back down when ouatmd released. On the contrary when outmd released srk in order to attract public to his movie kept offer of with 2 tickets 1 ticket free. That effected pretty bad, pulling large family weekend and bulk ticket purchasing audience away from new release and media did rest by giving negetive publicity. Deepika and srk both have seen what ever happened and they know once movie releases nothing will be in there hands anymore. There is two options release on same day or keep 3 weeks gap between two releases. And third option would be salman talking srk out of the clash.


But that will happen only if BM is released on a later date...If Dilwale is released later...there is no way that anyone will doubt that a Rohit Shetty movie with SRK+Kajol hit pair would fail...atleast not in the first week...so if Dilwale moves that problem will be solved too😆

not really, i think moving will just show that the movie wants to do as well as possible, i really feel one will move, too much of a gamble to clash


If one has to move, they will prepone it by a week. Not postpone.

BM seemes likes labour of love for cinema.. it will be visual masterpiece, just to be seen if the story is told well.

Dilwale is cashing names, hurried shooting span, just to cash in on nostalgia.

But BM has gove way overboard on its budget and Dilwale seems under control.

hmmm, waiting for BM's trailer.. it has to be bloody awesome.. to send the ripple effects.

The quote I mentioned I had read it from trade site. So I thought may be they think that ways. That could even mean why should we ( producer) pull down a movie when its going housefull.

I seriously want that to happen to all superstars who book their dates 2 years in advance. Give them run for their money. And then think abt breaking records.

BM has huge advantage in Mumbai- maharshtra and some extent Gujarat territory.. the biggest for BW. Also North ppl like king- warrior- war battle types of movies.

Dilwale has serious battle on hand.

This might not seem a right move to us from sharukh side but i am still trusting his business skills with this move , i am sure a lot of thought and planning must have gone behind it not just ego as everyone is making it out to be .

Besides more than us he also he knows that SLB is a stubborn man and must have taken into account the chances of SLB not moving and must have discussed everhthing with him when he attended SLB's party so the idea that he might have thought that SLB will move and is now stuck looks immature to me .

Dilwale will do well even if it clashes or is a solo release, come on its srk/kajol, people will definitely go to the cinema for that
So I hope there is atleast a week gap between the two, so that bm cud get a fair enough business
