Bajirao Mastani vs Dilwale clash confirmed by the makers of both films

Until now, the release date of Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale wasn’t officially announced by Red Chillies Entertainment. But the release of posters of the two films today, both highlighting the 18th December release date, has pretty much confirmed the clash between two films costing in excess of Rs 100 crore each!

With stakes at an unprecedented high – the combined cost of films releasing on a single Friday has never been higher – the trade did try their level best to avert the clash. It wasn’t to be.

The makers of both films want to cash-in on the Christmas weekend, which should result in this industry’s biggest clash.

Will both films work at the box office and give the trade its best possible result? Can a film like Bajirao Mastani take on the might of Shah Rukh Khan’s Dilwale? Can Sanjay Leela Bhansali finally avenge his embarrassing defeat back in 2007 when Saawariya was trounced by Om Shanti Om? These are just some of the questions that will be asked in the next few days.

  • Sanjay leela bhansali was overconfident after the success of Black, that’s why he had released saawaria with om shanti om…now he is doing same mistake after the success of Ram leela.. But history will repeat because srk is king of clash….

  • WHY SRKIAN WHY??
    YOU r saying BM will be biggest DISASTER,BM is CRAP etc.
    I dont understand WHY
    Just bcoz SLB is releasing His film against SRKs film but
    It Was SLB who had announced BM on CHRISTMAS first then why you are blaming SLB and why you r not appreciating his hard work.
    I am not saying DONT WATCH Dilwale I’ll watch Dilwale with My family.But I am excited for BM too.
    Even 5 year Child can say SRK alone can thrash SLB,RANVEER & EVERYONE then why you r INSECURE and creating NEGATIVITY for BM(Even Sensible SRK fans r doing this)
    WE can easily afford two MOVIES Tickets.So plz watch BM After watching DILWALE.

  • I will watch Bajirao Mastani first day in Pune . My all friend are eager watch this film eagerly waiting . Jai Parshuram .

  • To be honest I have nothing against Shahrukh even after what he did to ouatimd …………. but this movie somewhat looks like a tribute to ddlj and that’s it….
    Hope I m wrong after seeing the film…….
    @what are it’s box office prospects overseas coz this year’s Hollywood biggest movie star wars is coming……

  • Both films are crap but as a true hypocrite I will back BM all day long…!

    Ranveer you are a gunda but plz rock this xmas n after that go back to being a full time pervert /voyeur for all I care like kSHITij…!

  • In 2012 it was deewali.. But this time it’s xmas. May b fortune favours slb this time. Fortune favours brave.

  • @indicine: Red chilles released a poster of SRK and kajol on 16th june where it clearly told the release date 18th december 2015 … You have claimed wrongly in this article that red chillies had not officially announced the release date … They did it on 16th june 2015 … You can verify it on twitter on red chillies page

  • All trade experts & distributors know that DILWALE will be the winner.
    Because…….
    We all know last year SRK’s worstly rated & worst content film HNY released.
    But due to holidays film crossed 200cr.

    Rohit Shetty don’t have any film which got high rating from critics but his all films were hit for its strong entertainment factor.
    DILWALE will be an entertaining film for sure & Will get good WOM for entertainment.

    It sure that BM will get good 2 very good ratings from critics & good WOM.

    BM need extraordinary WOM to survive at BO.

    I think BM will cross 100 cr & DILWALE will cross 200cr for sure due to back 2 back holidays.
    Then only WOM will decide their LIFETIME.

  • SLB will have the last laugh coz everyone knows Baghban 2 will be a poor mans crappy remake of Amit ji/ Hema jis classic original Baghban…!

  • SRK is strugling to give HOTY since 2007 when his film clashing with SLB n Now again in 2015 Dilwale clashing with SLB film will the history repeat again time will tell that

  • see how rude/ruthless poster infront of romantic poster…baccha bhi bolega 18 dec DILWALE….ab SLB ko koun samjhaye…

    Ranbir career almost finish itself in 2007 now Ranbir career destroy badly bcz of SLB.

  • Dilwale poster looks more like greeting card logo than a movie poster where the BM poster is artistic and will surely take everyone’s attention.HNY2 is coming.my wishes to shaharukh fans but i am going for BM though i am a hritik fan.
