Bollywood Clashes in 2016: Pick the Winners

All eyes are on the Sultan vs Raees during Eid this year, a clash that is being touted as the biggest box office clash of all time. There are also reports of ‘Baahubali 2’ makers seriously looking at the Christmas 2016 weekend, more so because the shoot is currently ahead of schedule.  We also have Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Mohenjo Daro’ vs Akshay Kumar’s ‘Rustom’ vs ‘Hera Pheri 3’, what with makers of all three films eyeing the Independence Day weekend.

Full list of clashes in 2016:

  • February 12: Fitoor vs Sanam Re
  • March 25: Great Grand Masti vs Rocky Handsome
  • May 13: Azhar biopic vs Mirziya
  • June 5: Housefull 3 vs Jagga Jasoos
  • Eid 2016: Sultan vs Raees
  • August 12: Mohenjo Daro vs Rustom vs Hera Pheri 3
  • Diwali 2016: Ae Dil Hai Mushkil vs Shivaay
  • Christmas 2016: Dangal vs Baahubali 2 (unconfirmed)

What we want you to do is, pick one winner of each clash i.e the film that will eventually become the bigger lifetime grosser. You can also mention the bigger opener if you want to. Post your comments below.

  • GGM Vs Rocky Handsome
    Opening: 10-13cr & 4-5cr
    Weekend: 30-35cr & 16-20cr
    May GGM will Win the Clash but Rocky Handsome can be a surprise hit but collections will be low for RH from GGM in any case.

  • If the clash between rustom n mohenjodaro is certainity then i feel that rustom will benefit especially after the super success of airlift and with neeraj pandey being assossiated with it its not going to be easy for hrithiks film to have an edge n with the budget so big it will be better for mohenjodaro to have a solo release.

  • Azhar vs Mirziya
    Opening: 6cr & 3-5cr
    May Mirziya will be a surprise hit looking its director but we also can’t ignore Azhar.

  • Eid 2016: Sultan vs Raees-
    Sultan would take a better opening considering its genre but Raees will win the clash eventually.It’s a battle between Content and Mediocrity
    August 12: Mohenjo Daro vs Rustom vs Hera Pheri 3
    HP 3 won’t be releasing for sure and without Akki the buzz would be missing.Considering the scale of MD and also it being Hrithik’s return after a gap of one year it will easily collect more than Rustom even if Rustom turns out to a classic.But Rustom may turn out to be more profitable for everybody involved.
    Diwali 2016: Ae Dil Hai Mushkil vs Shivaay .Quite tough to decide.Shivaay is Ajay’s most ambitious film and is touted to be a high-budget film seems to be the first choice of viewers.ADHM will be promoted more as a KJo flick since Ranbir is at an all time low.If the songs clicks then it may give a tough fight
    For me these three are going to be the biggest clash of this year.I don’t think Baahubali would be ready by this year.Results of the other ones are quite easy to predict.

  • @vyom mankad

    haha… Sultan is going to loose.. Planning a strategy against azhar.. U will condemn kiddo.

    @neeraj mohenjodaro will be the biggest disaster… Azhar biopic will win….

  • I love it when the odds are against SRK, people put him down and he keeps coming back harder. I remember people passing similar comments against him before the release of CE, and when it released it destroyed each and every BO record, eventually becoming the HGOAT and of course doing ATBB business WW. It broke the record of 3 idiots which Bhai was struggling to break for 4 years despite doing back to back masala movies ?
    I would love to see haters hiding in their caves after the success of FAN which would benefit Raees’ opening big time.

  • Raees v/s Sultan clash openning neck to neck unlike BM v/s Dilwale n content win lets see how much ali abbas jafar destroy. RUSTOM v/s Mohenjodaro i pick Rustom after Airlif success n patriotic genere suite most in Independence weekned if HF3 cross 200cr then Mohenjodaro find dificult to match Jodha akbar collection. ADHM v/s Shivay means Director KJO v/s Ajay it simple ADHM better content n win the clash even low openning. DANGAL v/s Bahubali difficult to pridict amir can’t give 2yr for carp on other hand Bahubali is waiting by all if Dangal isn’t commerchal value like Talash then Bahubali 2 win for sure.

  • People would be very excited to see Srk playing a criminal in reel life than seeing a real-life criminal playing the role of a Samaritan

  • why with HR always…..not 1 but 2 films r clashing with Mohenjo Daro :O very very tough fight once again for Duggu….dnt want to pass a loose comment….let’s see!! bt this is being unfair…bt time will decide everything;waiting for right moment…….and in case of rest i think Raees(wl prv It;s mettle in long run),ADHM(sad but Ranbir is still has a good fan following;and It’s a Kjo film….but wl be a very close fight),Fitoor,Neerja,Housefull3(Jagga Jasoos though wl give some fight),Azhar Biopic(Mirziya cn be a Critics’ winner) will Win the battle!!
    and cmpltly confused about Last Clash of 2016….if Kaabli fix that date also then It wl a enthralling clash!! let’s wait & watch!!

  • @sweet-heart

    what the hell? Miriziya director is crap .. Made only crappy films like delhi-6 …

    Azhar is going to win…

    In either way, it is going to release solo.. Miriziya firziya will prepone.

  • @Indicine If Kaabil goes on floors by March / April and assuming that it is a 3 month straight shoot till the wrap (as some medias are reporting) is there a chance it could become a Christmas 2016 release? If the shoot finishes by say June / July there is ample time to finish the post production works and make the film ready for a Christmas release right?

  • Bhaitards who claim that SRK doesn’t yet have a 300 cr movie and Bhai has one (Bajrangi), remember that your bhai was struggling to give a 200 cr movie for years despite doing back to back masala flicks, & he is the ‘last Khan’ to reach the 200 cr figure that too a year after SRK (2013) had crossed that mark (2014) despite him having a much hyped comeback masala grand release which bombed (remember Jai Ho ? ?). Also remember that Bhai has the most number of disasters and flops amongst the Khans (even more than Bullet Raha Saifu ?). So y’all shouldn’t even compare him with SRK (Consistency King) & Aamir (Perfectionist).
    Compare him with Rahul Roy & Deepak Tojari, I’m sure even they can act better than Bhai.

  • I think Bahubali 2 will be the biggest hit.
    No other movie has generated so much curiosity among the viewers as this movie has. Everything abt the 1st part was spectacular n entertaining. Wish it was made in 3D.

  • i dont think bollywood has capacity for big clashes..there r limited screens available .people r careful in chosing films..huge loses r awaiting..srk aamir salman ritik ajay n akshay r big actors…their films enjoys 100 crs..d main problem is if their films cross 200cr even in chashes…box office is very unpredictable.

  • Legendary movies dont come too often…So only waiting for MOHENJODARO & BAAHUBALI 2……
    I don’t give a damn about other pathetic films in that list…..

    These 2 movies have Legendary Directors, Legendary Actors and most importantly these are once in a lifetime movies…Everyone is eagerly waiting for Mohenjodaro and Baahubali 2…

    These two mega historical film will destroy every ones pathetic movies in 2016!!!! and will be biggest blockbuster of this year….

    MARK MY WORDS!!!

  • @neeraj kindly do not worry about SRK fans, I don’t want to unnecessarily bash Hrithik, prayers were needed when Hrithik did movies like Kati Patang & Ek Apaahij ki Aatmakathaa which were big time disasters, fortunately King Khan has never been through such a phase.
