Singham 2 and Gabbar won’t clash: Ajay Devgn

In an interview to a local daily, Ajay Devgn has rubbished rumours of his next film with Rohit Shetty – the sequel to Singham – will clash with Akshay Kumar’s Gabbar.

“There will be no clash with any film. One of us will release our film (on Independence Day 2014). I wouldn’t want two films to release together so that nobody suffers as this is one industry.”

Ajay also spoke about his clash with Jab Tak Hai Jaan last Diwali, and clearly stated that the trend of big films snatching screens from comparatively smaller films isn’t a good for the industry in the long run.

“The issue needs to be sorted out and that is why I am in court (against Yashraj Films). It isn’t going to help only me. By going to court I am spending money not for Son of Sardaar but to eradicate this problem which I had foreseen much earlier. I feel this problem is only going to multiply and whoever did not believe in me earlier will suffer”

Devgn concluded by saying “But if you have to clash then you have to go all out like I did with Son of Sardaar and came out victorious.”

  • By the way you lost in last diwali clash

    JTHJ – 122 cr.
    SOS – 104 cr.
    And if you compare worldwide SOS is not even close to JTHJ

    These is not called victories….
    Ajay clearly lost the clash..

    But if he wants to clash with akki
    he might win….

  • Who became victorious?!?
    One and nly king khan won the battle competng wth a full masala genere..hatsoff badshaah
    If Sos would hav clashd wth Chennai Express then sardar ji aapka naam hi nahi bacha hoga..praise the lord..lol

  • yeah victorios mean that sos collected much more than jthj in overseas and little more at domestic box office
    gud joke…

  • Yes really he showed a lot of courage,and i think SOS was a winner in JTHJ vs SOS clash.
    “Sher hoon sher koi kutta nahin,jo bulane se aa jaun”.

  • I think the failure of OUATIMD was only due to SRK getting those crucial holiday dates.
    Ok,the film was’nt well made but still could have fared around 100cr had it released on 8th Aug.

    No offense
    #respectforSRK

    I expect not to get dislikes on my comment by SRK fans.

  • Ajay is trying to be a hero. He is trying to say that he is a brave man and not coward like ekta and akshay. Filing case against a family of late yash chopra and that too few days after he passed away is indeed is a brave thing. Whole idustry who is trying convince u is wrong and u only is right and I salute u mr. Ajay devgan. Every one will die one day and when u die, I hope during that time nobody file case against ur family for some issue .’bad Karma is very dangerous, probably it will hit u back so be carefull mr. Ajay devgan.

  • Ajay Devgn is arrogant as hell even though he comes across as a nice fella he is desperate for collections and keeps on talking about how his movies reach 100cr. This guy isn’t even in the TOP 6 his opening are similar to that of Emraan Hashmi and Imran Khan. Watch Satyagraha will tank too. SOS was a mass entertainer which did well against a romantic film and got a lot of publicity from the clash. Look how Himatwalla fared with 2 open weeks wrapped up under 45crs. Disastrous actor who has no star power. Shahrukh Khan is also outdated he was flopstar before CE, Salman is best!

  • @babaji. Ajay knows how to use srk name to promote his movies and cried for screen space and got public and srk haters sympathy Else it wud have one more himmatwala or tez. What happnd to himmatwala despite released solo on 3100 screen but cud not touch SOS opening day collection. By the way SOS didn’t win but given good fight to bored jthj and lost in end. He knows thar akshays Gabbar is not action replay which lost easily against g3. Gabbar can destroy singham2 any day.

  • @babaji. wah wah. u should have been advisor to AJAY. he would have had a great record.
    lol victorious. as if we were all sleeping.
    sos was white washed.
    he has no guts to tackle any actor. let alone AKSHAY. bringing out a masala film and still loosing even after getting help of SALMAN.
    wow AJAY. u tho speak open lies. kudos to u and all the directors u work with
    all Ur future endeavours will be HIMMATWALA GRAND REMAKES

  • well..isn’t this a direct message to Gabbar’s makers asking them to move their film to another date?
    cuz if Gabbar’s makers decide to stick to their release date do Singham2 makers have guts to move their film? as Mr. Devgun is saying that the clash won’t happen..i think it’s like saying that Gabbar’s makers will make a gesture an move their film but why not make this generous step and move your own film (singham2) to another date?
    and coming to JTHJ-SOS’s clash i think sure no one benefits from the clash of big films but why then Mr. Devgun u din’t make sure the clash is averted? JTHJ was the first film to book the diwali release date of 2012 even before SOS’s team start working on their film. but anyway i saincerly think that JTHJ’s results would be the same even if a solo release and the clear evidence is that JTHJ took the bigger opening and if the film was better received like CE this year not even a mass film like SOS would have stopped it, the problem with JTHJ is that it was declining as the days were passing by and SOS didn’t benefit from that as starting from week 2 the results of both films were similar due to JTHJ not being up to the mark!

  • Why is everyone commenting here unable to judge the situation from a neutral point of view? Anyone who is trying to say “Ajay is scared of Akshay” must have mental issues. Are you SO BLIND that you can’t see that Ajay is supporting Akshay?! “One of us will release our film (on Independence Day 2014). I wouldn’t want two films to release together so that nobody suffers as this is one industry.” Akshay and Ajay have alot of respect for eachother, but it is you idiotic **** that bring shame to their names. And as far as SRK is concerned, the whole world has seen what a cheap and lowly person he is, when he betrayed Ekta. Nothing more to say. Son Of Sardaar DID come out victorious, considering it was released in LESS SCREENS.

  • yo BABAJI

    your comment is the only one here which talks some sense, and ironically it’s also the one with the most dislikes

    i guess that should tell us something about the mindset of the ignorant indian public and the ch*tiya chamche

  • I would have liked a masala movie like CE had clashed with SOS instead of JTHJ…….masala vs masala would have destroyed his career 5-6 months earlier which Himmatwaala eventually did…….

  • yeah dat’s true you are the winner cos budget of son of sardar was smaller than jthj and the result of box office you were the winner with out doubt

  • ajay devgan is a much better actor than overrated srk .ajay has won two national awards(indias top award).where overrated crapstar srk never won a national award in his entire career.shame on srk he has only fake filmfare awards.this shows the aukat of cheap overrated worst actor srk and his shameless fans.

  • @Rahul, are you out of your mind, what are you saying, destroyed the career of AJAY? Let me remind you that he is the only actor among akshay, srk, salman and aamir to get 2 National award for acting, as far as acting is concerned no one can match his versatility, so shut up.

  • Wonder who will play the villian in Singham 2, as Prakashraj was simply brilliant in the first. A worthy villian is a big asset.

  • ajay clashed with srk and got SOS made 100 cr. akshay avoided the clash and all he got was a flop and CE’s 3rd week coming better than OUATIMD 2nd week. Ajay did the right thing.

  • Ajay devgan along with sonakshi sinha are the biggest dumb i have seen in kbc hot seat. So its no surprise to me that this uneducated dumb is talking like a moron.

  • Devgn did not warn anyone,some years ago dil & ghayal,lagaan & gadar released same day they all emerged superhits/bb.Now screen space counts so things became worse.As srk fans praised jeetuji & ekta for avoiding clash so now they should praise AD.

  • Ajay n Akshay are friends so there is no clash…Singham2 already a blockbuster i can bet n all the best to Akki for Gabbar…

    Yeh sb chorro
    abhi Boss dekho

  • thank you ajay, atleast you understand the loss of clashes, all films should get fair amount of screens but this time ouatimd suffered due to cheap tactics of backstabbing khan.

    all these mentally ill people saying ajay lost to srk or ajay is scared of akshay or akshay is scared of ajay are totally out of their minds. ajay is right, big films shouldn’t clash or if they are clashing , they should get fair amount of screens each.
