Bajirao Mastani vs Dilwale: Christmas clash to be averted

It never made any business sense, but Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the lead cast of ‘Bajirao Mastani’ had reconfirmed time and again that their film would hit screens during Christmas 2015.

However, reliable sources close to Sanjay Leela Bhansali have confirmed that the makers of ‘Bajirao Mastani’ are now looking at a solo release date in 2016.

The reports come a week after Red Chillies Entertainment officially announced the release date of Rohit Shetty’s ‘Dilwale’ starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon.

Earlier this week, there were also reports that the shoot of ‘Bajirao Mastani’ was delayed by a few days due to Ranveer Singh’s surgery and Bhansali wanting to reshoot a song sequence of the film.

The period drama starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra in the lead, is touted to be one of the costliest films produced in Bollywood. A clash against a Shahrukh – Kajol film could have backfired big time, more so since Bhansali’s ‘Saawariya’ failed to match upto SRK’s Om Shanti Om back in 2007.

While the news is yet to be officially confirmed by Eros International or Sanjay Leela Bhansali, it’s more or less confirmed that the film won’t release in December.

There you go then, Shah Rukh Khan will get a solo Christmas release this year.

  • That psedo-critic has started again …
    He will never realize that ‘everyone’ enjoyed classy Haider more than another crap called Bong Bong , just like ‘everyone’ enjoyed classy Ram Leela much more than Jadoo 3 !!!

  • Hahahahaha srk must have begged deepika who is ranveer’s gf to postpone the ‘crappiewale’ and so ranveer citing his surgery as a excuse postponed the release, srk has always relied on the chopras, k.jo, yrfs, dharmas in his earlier days and now entirely on Rohit shetty & deepika for his success. wow what a superstar he is!!!!!! hahahahaha lol on srk and his silly fans who say he is a self made superstar hahahahaha :D :D

    But it doesn’t matter , ‘billuwale’ will be the biggest disappointing crap of the year!

  • it was expected. Well what happened Way Back in 2006. when SRK ‘s Don CRUSHED Salman & Akshay’s Janemaan at the BO both in India & Overseas. and same thing happened during CDI release when CDI crushed Bhojpuri Salman’s Marigold.. so how SLB will clash when in first clash during OSO, SRK crushed him.

  • @javed at 7:49 p.m bhuahahahahaha that was one of the most silliest funniest comment i have ever read on indicine , well u r giving tough competition to ur another illiterate dostana friend srktard sss in the departments of retardness, stupidity, absurdity & ridiculousness. yaar i wonder how can u srk fans be so retarded & absurd???? lol :D :D

  • Don vs Janeman : SRK won. CDI vs Marigold : SRK Won. BAH (Ranbir) vs GTGH (Salman) : Ranbir Won.. SRK alone vs both Salman/akki. Avg Music Vs Superhit music still DON got 95% opening & JM 40%. SRK won & Bhojpuri Salman got crushed by SRK… even Akshay Kumar’s movie ( Blue ) Fardeen Khan’s movie ( All The Best ) & Bhojpuri Salman’s movie ( Main aur mrs khanna ) released together and Salman’s Main Aur Mrs Khanna took the lowest opening among all & also grossed lesser than Fardeen Khan’s film. That is actually called a awkward moment for Salman Khan fans when Fardeen Khan movie is doing better than Southtard Salman Movie in clash.. Fardeen Khan’s film did more than twice of Bhojpuri Salman’s film.. When SRK crushed Murderer Salman countless times in clashes, has crushed Big B, Govinada, Akshay,Ajay, everyBollywood Actor so how SLB would clash once again with SRK after OSO-Saawariya? it is a SRK’s movie not a Copy King Salman’s movie that he will clash.. impossible – KING Khan is the KING of Clashes.

  • It bound to happen but as Rohit said if Bajirao Mastani team choose any other release date Christmas it bound to be flop as next year too they can’t have any holiday as eid,diwali and Christmas already booked and next big release time is post IPL but I don’t think BM kind of movies can trended very well that time like yjhd,tmwr,ready,RR etc.
    So all and all SLB phase gaye h, I think he should release on 25th dec but I want it wont as I don’t want to hear any excuses like 7 days,clash blah blah when dilwale failed to do 300cr ofcourse with manipulation.
    @nipun best one was for me when Deepika try to convince srk to stay in komban goan and asked be normal and then dialogue of srk “hi,my name is normal, naam to suna hi nahi hoga” kab tak ek hi dialogue bolega.
    @challa Aamir want to break records, dude he had already all with him, the only reason was to make pk as big as success like 3i, if he release pk on jun 2014 it can’t cross 250 cr with exception wom as movies are not collecting much after 1 or max 2 weeks, but srk has most of his films on holiday only,its been 17th release of him but don’t worry pk is too tough to beat, I can’t even imagine d3 collection without manipulation, baki 40-50cr manipulation to kahi nahi gaya. Best of luck.

  • in 2013 SRK’s Chennai Express faced more than 4 clashes against actors like Akshay, Ajay, john, Imraan, Amitabh but still CE did more than 430cr Gross world-wide which is more than any Bhojpuri Salman’s movie which he is still chasing and did 141cr in overseas which is million times more than Copy King Salman’s whole overseas career movies collection. he is still chasing like he is chasing SRK since 1992 but result as usual – Failed..

    When SRK faces clashes against Akshay, Ajay, john, Imraan, Amitabh etc at once his movie become all time industry blockbuster and become highest grosser ever but when Salman faces a clash against an actor like fardeen his movie become all time industry disaster.. lol

  • As bajrangi bhaijank and ek flop Tha payo
    will sink at box office.
    BB 134 crore in its lifetime
    prdp 105 crore in its lifetime
    losers Wil cry this Eid and Diwali!

  • I must say it is a very wise decision..I want Bhansali to complete his masterpiece with as much time he wants..I’m expecting extraordinary performances from its lead starcast.. He should target pre IPL release date or or any partial holiday period..
    As far as Dilwale is concerned,releasing on 25th December would have resulted in a record first day and weekend.. I still hope it breaks weekend records as opening day looks tough on a non holiday..hope for the best..fingers crossed

  • Salman and aami career will be finished
    after 2016….!!!
    they will be rejected and expired from bollywood becoz of their tortures! ?

  • @NVS It would be better if Salman fans don’t talk about clashes.Even with Akki your Bhai couldn’t compete with Don.But he didn’t learn from his mistake and the very next year he pitted his ambitious marigold a week after CDI.Well everybody knows what happened.Marigold created history at the BO I mean it turned out to be the biggest debacle in the history of Indian cinema and CDI turned out to be a blockbuster.So refrain yourself from talking nonsense.
    BTW what has your Bhai achieved without Barjatyas and remakes.Let him do something different apart from doing Dhishum Dhishum in every movie

  • @NVS ‘billuwale’ LOL. I was goin to say the same thing.
    Highest 2015 grossers prediction:
    1.BB
    2.PRDP
    3.Brothers
    4.TWMR/Billuwale
    5.Billuwale/TWMR

  • @navin wait for 3 days after release the hang ur self because ur prediction ovetaken 3 days it self

  • Salman’s fans were/are worried about Dilwale’s clash more than SRK’s fans as they think if it will clash Dilwale will be flop bec when ever their idol has faced clash even against Ranbir and fardeen but got crushed, nanga by them.. choti soch walo ki choti soch, they don’t know it is a KING KHAN’s movie not bhojpuri Salman’s movie..

  • @sss is trying to teach me English. Hahaha.. It’s like a dog is trying to teach a Horse how to run! Lol.
    What’s wrong if I enjoyed average Singham Returnz more than below average Chennai Express? Singham returns was intense and more consistant than CE. Plus, the over all performances of all the actors in SR were better than that in CE.

    And why some retards like @The Phenom are comparing Ramleela with K3 and Haider with Bang Bang?
    Are the directors of Both the films same? No. Are the actors same? No again!

    I brought the example of CE and SR because both are Rohit Shethy’s movies. What if I say I loved Queen more than HNY and BMB more than CE? Doesn’t it sound unnecessary?

    Oh! Wait. He compared K3 with Ramleela because both came in same month and their release dates had a gap of two weeks!
    Then I can also say I loved Madras Cafe more than CE(2 weeks gap) and Haider more than HNY(gap of 3 weeks):p Lol

  • @funny chachi,akki has no aukat to release against KING KHAN.BTW KING KHAN no need to beg anyone because HIS NAME is enough to make pee in the pants of many producers and your 14 disaster giving flop Kumar got you chachi 786?????

    @navin,now keep compromising with in yourselves like a MAD like “DILWALE will chase ready,DILWALE will be the crap,DILWALE as varunwale even though you had seen what @indicine wrote like KING SRK’ DILWALE like many other blah blah”.because you know what IT gives US pleasure,ROFL.

    @neanderthal vapid saky(nvs),yeah how do you know that?????I mean ranveer’s surgery is just a excuse!!!!!slb fears of KING KHAN after HE watched how KING KHAN thrashed each and every opponent from HIS way,don’t know?????then have a look at those clashed happened in past

    In 90’s—-amir’s ahat thrashed by KING KHAN’S RAM JAANE

    in 2000—-hr’s mission Kashmir thrashed by KING KHAN’S MOHABBATEIN

    in 2006—-akki+salman’s jaaneman thrashed badly BY KING KHAN’S DON

    in 2007—-ranbir+salman’s saawariya thrashed by KING KHAN’S OSO

    in 2012—-ajay+salman’s masala film thrashed by KING KHAN’S OFFBEAT CLASSIC JTHJ

    in 2013—-never seen incident happened in the HISTORY of bollywood,when KING KHAN’S CE keep thrashed continuously akki’s ouatimd+john’s madras cafe+ajay’s satyagraha .

    If after seen this HISTORY also,if you poor jokers will come here and cry like KING KHAN is fearing,KING KHAN is begging,then it’ll seem exactly like you’re making yourself nude and dancing in front of everyone.ha ha I couldn’t control my laugh,ROFL.

    And some other few CLASHES forgot.BTW loser salman lost 3 times in clash and floppy Kumar also lost 2-3 times in CLASH.one is bollywood’s most flop giving actor(akhay) who is now competing with arjun kapoor ,othera bollywood’s 2nd most flop giving actor(salman) and bollywood’s most disaster giving actor(ajay) all are thrashed like puny ants in front of BADSHAH OF CLASH—-MEGASTAR OF BOLLYWOOD KING SRK.

    so haters please come with some new fresh excuses because these excuses already got expired,lol.

  • I am very desperate to break aamir’s record for last 7 years but it’s just not in me. this year I will just be happy if my film becomes only a clean hit without clash.

  • @sky if the film is good then clash not matter, ce got 6days free run become all time highest grosser, hny got 2open weeks failed to cross 200cr, my heart says Dilwale will be good film n pk record is in danger

  • I don’t know about PK but it will definitely cross dhoom 3.

    If hera pheri 3 is also postponed then it will definitely hit 300 cr mark but still it will be out of reach of PK.
