AJAY is 100% right hence the last two paragraphs below I've highligted in Red. Good decision he has made for his upcoming film Tanaji

#AjayDevganFan #Nikhil

Bollywood is such a place where trends keep changing with a blink. And another trend which was a big thing till few years back is now seems to be outdated. Earlier superstars Ajay Devgn, Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan used to block dates in advance but now one of them, Ajay Devgn feels that the system is no more relevant. Recently, Karan Johar blocked Diwali 2020 for his Varun Dhawan starrer Ranbhoomi.


Karan had tweeted, "So Proud to announce #RANNBHOOMI ...@ShashankKhaitan and @Varun_dvn take a giant leap in their third offering into a solid spectacle with a beating heart! DIWALI 2020 release! The lead cast will be finalised soon!!!! @DharmaMovies @apoorvamehta18


Talking about the blocking dates, Ajay Devgn said, "I have stopped blocking dates now because once you block a date, then you have to be in hurry because you have a deadline. So now I want to finish a film and then decide when to release. I feel the system of blocking date is gone. There is no system of blocking date. Today I announce a date, hundred percent someone else will announce his date as well. So, let me be the second one to announce on it. It doesn't matter. It's no one's fault.

So if two big films will release on same date then obviously a clash will happen. Ajay doesnt deny it. He says, "Clashes are not good but then you don't have a choice. It's nobody's fault anyway. How many Fridays are there? Out of fifty-two also there are so many Fridays which are not great to release a film.

See what happened with Shivaay then KJO wanted his release on that period. He can clash if he wants to but he's being professional by making sure that his film his polished. His film Tanaji will require lots of VFX and post work after once the shooting is finished. So he needs to make sure it looks perfect before announcing the release date.

I hope he can release Tanaji in 2019 even if that means clashing with Housefull 4 on Diwali.

Everybody wants their films released on big festive periods which you can't blame them. If you have to clash then it's nobody fault unless you want to take a risk by postponing to another date. How many Fridays come in 2019? Around 52 if I'm correct.

Looks like he missed those movies which are booking 2019 dates.

It doesn't matter. Once he's finished Tanaji then he will announced for the release date that year even if that means clashing with another film. It won't be like last time where he announced Shivaay two years in advance for Diwali then KJO decided to have his film on that period.

I think it's a wise choice he's made whilst others usually announce theirs in advance.

The Khans will never clash with each other but will target Hindu stars like Hrithik, Akshay, Ajay, Ranveer.

They expect people not to see religion while going to watch films but u will never see the same reciprocation from them. Aamir deliberately clashed his small film, SS to restrict Ajay's Golmaal from creating BO record. I think all Hindu stars shud also hv a secret pact and not clash their films with each other. Make sure u clash with these Khans on their festive day, only then their cunning monopoly will end. They want to retain underworld hold on bollywood by hook or by crook. Festive dates unke baap ka nahi hai.

I'm not sure about your second paragraph but I will put that to one side. Yeah, first paragraph I can agree on as Khan's won't clash with each other.

My PREDICTION is Housefull 4 vs Tanaji on Diwali 2019.

Ajay's warrior film will shove its fist \/p Housefull 4 $$ like bonjela.
