Talking to Times of India, Ajay Devgn has once again confirmed that Son of Sardar will release this Diwali. He’s also confident that his film will work at the box-office and the exhibitors are ‘sensible enough’ to decide which film will release where.
Here are some excerpts from his TOI interview
On Yashraj Films pre-booking 70% of the screens, Ajay says
The picture is already clear. Everything will be balanced. There is no other way. The exhibitors are sensible enough to decide which film to release where. They know how to balance things out. They can’t let their business suffer. I just hope my film works. Actually, I am confident about it.
On his strategy this Diwali
The attempt is to make a good film. If a good film releases, it will work. If both films are good, they will fare well. I am not competing with anybody. I don’t want to.
On his good friend Rohit Shetty directing SRK in Chennai Express
When Rohit Shetty met SRK, I was the first one to know. I asked him to go ahead and make the film. Rohit has grown with me, so it makes me feel nice
ajay sir yeh sab bolbachan hay ap diwali ka wait kar lo all the best hamre dua ap k sath jay ho singham ki
Will watch both the films becuz i like both of them even th o Srk is my favorite both will rock!!!
@tingu…..talaash release hone ke baad tere fans tujhe talaash hi karte reh jayenge aur raha mera sawaal to ek tha tiger release hone ke baad mere g*y fans mujhe ek tha sabse bada g*y ke naam se yaad karenge aur is tarah hum dono amar ho jayenge!!
arz kiya hai…jali ko aag kehte hain, bujhi ko raakh kehte hain, jo saare g*ys ki hifaazat karein use salwoman kehte hain!!
bahut khushi ho rahi hai ki srk aur katrina ek bathtub ad ke liye shoot karnewale hai aur usse bhi zyaada is baat ki khushi hai ki main us ad ka camerawoman hu.
We all know that the next movie of Ajay will be a hit, it’s the remake of a very good movie. I’m tired of remakes, I want original stories, please Bollywood!
Haters like my dublicate @Emperor Khan…Aggar tum log 1 baap ki olaad ho tu apni ID istamal karo. Fir baat karo.. Wese b Ajay duvgn iss diwali par srk ka chinta ta cheta cheta karne wala he..is ka matlab tu khob pata hoga tumeen. Aur King Salman Khan ko galiyaan dina band karo. Aur sirf 17 din baki haen Tiger k tumeen cheerne k lye. So just wait..
M gonna watch Son of Sardar…its would be sureshot a worth watching movie…
Comedy|Action|Reality ….. not like srk’s emotional drama..
hello friends i think that ki film superhit ho ya na ho ye dekhna kaun se film future main dekhe jate hain.aamir khan ki gajhini aur srk ki r.n.b.d.j. ek hi time relese hue the par aaj gajhini bahut boaring lagti hai par r.n.b.d.j. aaj bhi acche lagti hain.wanted dabbangg bodyguard ab dekhte nahi bante par ddlj aaj bhi chal rahi hai.sirf paisa hi sab kuch nahi hota.
@Ramesh and dabangg will kick out khiladi
Sos has taken bollywood to a new low. Rip bollywood. Murderers are sallu, ajay, akshay…..
@manish, i don’t care hahahahaha!!
I know
every lallu fans are gonna watch this srk’s movie even though they don’t like him, just to compare him with lallu. But for lallu’s sake they all just insult him.
@emperor, abe bewde, hum log gaali dete rehenge jab tak tum log gaali dene baand kere. U were the STUPID ONE WHO STARTED THE FIGHT by saying bad words on srk. And when u just keep on saying bad words why would we just sit and watch ur comments?
confidence ki baat use karna chahiye jo original kaam karte ho….Ajay ur movie is a remake nd it is already superhit then,the why the hell u r saying u r confident….itna hi confidence hai to original kuch banao naa
Indicine-when srk next movie trailer come and its name
SRK movie also releasing this Diwali?
I thought only SOS and EEGA are releasing.
Doesnt matter, most of the public dnt even know SRK still exist in Bollywood.
Ajay go ahead and rock this Diwali and best of luck EEGA
abe tu hai sabse bada dhongi Emperor Khan lallu fan.asli orignal Emperor Khan sirf mai hun.srk fan.tum lallu fans lallu ki pasan ki tarah sirf use dusron ka jutha khilate ho.ab srk ko log king khan ke naam se jaante hai.par tum log ab lallu ko king khan naam ka jutha chata rahe ho.lallu ko king khan bolte ho to har kisi ko srk yaad aata hai.wanted se pahle salg@y fans ka indicine pe comment dekh lo registan me paani ki tarah kahi dur tak nahi dikhai dete hai.ab kukur mutte ki tara thode nikle hai.
Ajay best ov luckk
SRK is non existent and insignificant entity of Bollywood now.
London Ishq will flop big time
BREAKING NEWS!!!
Yash raj films to release SRK’s next more than ETT’s Screens* !!!!!!
Yash Raj Films plans to carpet bomb their film Ek Tha Tiger across the largest-ever number of screens in India, and follow the same strategy for Yash Chopra’s next directorial during Diwali. Will there be any screens left for Ashwni Dhir’s Son Of Sardaar, which is also releasing during the festive season?
Bring it on! That’s going to be the spirit during Diwali this year, with two mega movies taking each other head-on. And we’re not talking stellar casting. We’re also talking pure numbers. So here’s the deal…
Yash Raj Films (YRF) is determined to break a few records with its upcoming Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif starrer Ek Tha Tiger (ETT), which releases on August 15. To make sure the film takes one of the best openings ever, the production house is planning to release the film in more than 2,500 cinema halls (over 3200 screens) pan-India. This will be the biggest release yet for any film in the history of Indian cinema…
In fact, the only film this year that came a close second to such a mammoth release was Dharma Productions’ Agneepath featuring Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra, which released across 2,000 plus properties, pan-India. And if you thought this was the most revolutionary step in film distribution that YRF has taken, wait till you hear what plans it has up its sleeve for their Diwali mega release, which is Yash Chopra’s directorial comeback after eight years since Veer Zaara…
Rafiq Gangjee, Vice President – Marketing and Communications, YRF, says, “It is much too early for us to comment on the number of cinemas/screens that Ek Tha Tiger will be releasing in.”..
However, we have learnt that YRF has signed a contract with exhibitors and distributors to also release Yash Chopra’s next, yet untitled, and featuring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma, across even more screens than that of Ek Tha Tiger. Gangjee told us, “Yash Raj Films has been dealing with the same exhibitors and theatre owners through our distribution offices over the last 40 years and all of them would be more than happy to screen a Yash Chopra film, coming after a gap of eight years, without any reservations.”..
Now while ETT is a solo release, Yash Chopra’s Diwali release will hit the screens alongside Ajay Devgn Ffilms, YVF Media Pvt Ltd and Viacom18 Motion Pictures’ Son Of Sardaar (SOS) toplining Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha and Sanjay Dutt. That makes it a potential clash of mega-stars – Shah Rukh Khan versus Ajay Devgn. So, with YRF’s huge release plans, Viacom18 might have a lot to worry about.
Are they fazed? Not one bit! Vikram Malhotra, COO, Viacom18 Motion Pictures says, “In today’s day and age, decisions on what to watch and what not to watch have moved entirely to the audience. Regardless of what marketing and promotional tactics a film undertakes, it is the content that decides the film’s fate at the ticket window. Our film Son Of Sardaar is a quintessential Diwali release as it is packed with all the elements that make for a successful film. Mind-blowing action, rib-tickling comedy, drama, and some wonderful music are all intertwined in a great story.
“We may choose to release the film across 1,000 screens or 2,700 screens but it does not serve any purpose if the film only generates business equivalent to a mere 100 screens. A film’s business cannot be predicted. Ultimately, it is also cinema owners and screen owners who play what the audience demands. All I can say is that the trailer of Son Of Sardaar, which released a few days ago, has received an overwhelming response, which has created unprecedented anticipation in the hearts of the audience. Within the first three days of its release, the trailer has recorded the highest number of views in the history of Hindi cinema.”
