Christmas 2017: Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanjay Dutt biopic vs Aanand L Rai’s dwarf film

Two big films are set to release during the Christmas weekend in 2017. Tanu Weds Manu Returns’ director Aanand L Rai’s next film, which centres around a dwarf, has been officially announced for Christmas 2017.

There have been rumours that the Eros International and Colour Yellow Productions’ venture, could feature Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. The star cast announcement will be made soon.

Meanwhile, Rajkumar Hirani has also said that his next directorial venture, starring Ranbir Kapoor in the lead, is targeting a Christmas release in 2017. Hirani’s last two films, 3 Idiots and PK, released during Christmas and went on to become the highest grossers of all time. His next film is based on the life of actor Sanjay Dutt.

The script, Hirani says, is ready and the film will go on floors in July this year.

Two big films, two acclaimed directors and possibly two fantastic actors.. all targeting the best weekend for film business in a year - Christmas.

  • 2017 will come in a long time…Dutt biopic will be interesting..Since Hirani is doing extra effort and gives all in its script…If it releases in 2017 with a good release date then history will be written…Like HR gave 2003 HGOFTY with koi mill gaya after 4-5 flops…I think Ranbir also need and will earn HGOFTY…
    Best of luck to Dutt biopic Team..

  • Rajkumar Hirani is a great director but this is his first biopic and many people dislike Sanjay Dutt and Ranbir… On the other hand, Anand L Rai is a much liked director too. I don’t comment yet on SRK because nothing is sure.

  • @Shreya let ranbir give a hit varun miles ahead of ranbir even ranveer ahead of him after BM. SID also can overtake rk in 2016 if ADHM not work then ranbir may turn another abishek

  • Two fantastically Flop Actors are coming on Christmas 2017 under two Biggest Brand of HINDI CINEMA (HIRANI & ANAND L RAI)

  • @Rangil Unfortunately Srk wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth so obviously he didn’t got film offers easily in the initial stages of his career unlike Aamir who was launched by his own family and Salman who had access to the industry via his father.
    And I am proud Srk made a name for himself without any Godfather

  • There s a rumour going around saying that Rohit Shetty and Ajay will announce soon dat they will release Golmaal 4 xmas in 2017.

    #wewantgolmaal4

  • In 2017 1 more time SRK will face embarrassment due to another clash with another masterpiece movie named DUTT

  • I think An and L Rai Already cast Srk or Salman to Play the role of Dawarf …That why Anand choose Xmas 2017 ..

  • Aamir will try to claim Christmas 2017spot as well. Its really too early as of now. Aamir next film announcement is expected sometime now or in a few months as well.

  • Pls SRK don’t ruin another christmas the same way you ruined it back in 2011 with crapfest Don 2,thank God Bajrao Mastani was there but you could also have ruined christmas of 2015 with pathetic film Excusewale

  • what the he’ll Raju doing .
    Sanjay Dutt is Not a star whose Story will watch by people’s.Even I don’t like Raju hirani films He is so repeat .And those director Change there tracks are failed badly
    look what SLB after Devdas he change his track gives commercially flops like Sawariya black and Guzarish but then he back to his strength with RL and BM.
    Same for Rohit Shetty ,Karan johar ,Jp Dutta ,Priuadarshan, Madhur Bhandarkar ,

    Where as a director Anand L Rai has much talent .But Needs Ranverr as its main lead not Crapp Srk or it should aamir khan film on Christmas 17.

  • I don’t want to say anything about Stars.
    But………I want to say about Directors.

    Anand L Roy give us TWM,TWMR & Ranjhana.Three love film was loaded with strong entertainment values & North Indian essence & crispy songs.
    All films had universal appeal & sustain well on Box Office & collect all over.

    RAJU Hirani is the director who gave us Theme film but with high dose of entertainment which was new in Bollywood that time & his 3Idiots & Pk both were hugely successful all over.

    If this Clash will happen then entertainment with Strong content will fight with each other.
    Both will be punish & will be loser at Box Office.

  • Ranbir will ensure Hirani of his 1st flop. Ranbir is sukha kismiss who can’t potray any role beside lover boy let aside Sanjau Dutt. People will throw sandals at theatre. Above avg. At best that too for Hirani Sir.

  • Good luck, Ranbir.
    The whole world is also waiting for Robot 2.0 … Rajni vs Akki… will be bigger than Batman vs Superman

  • See the comments of shitty haters of Srk… Still there is no confirmation about anand l rai’s project..haters started barking”flop” “disaster” etc… shame on you… Dear sallu fans whole world know that salman is just non actor…he is just for entertainment…. If salman did chak de india…oh god..The whole film viewers will kick salman’s and his brainless comedy fans.

  • Lol see at Frustrated Javed, seriously SRK do acting ? SRK is biggest OVER ACTOR in Bollywood. thats why there is OGGY and The Cockroaches. and Aamir jaisa banne ke liye SRK ko 100 times born hona padega tab bhi shayad na ban paye, main to Salman ko bhi SRK se achcha samajhta hun, kum se kum usko jitna ata hai utna karta hai, SRK ki tarah Over Over and Over acting nahi karta hai.

  • films rejected by SALMAN grabbed by srk:
    BAAZIGAR
    CHAK DE INDIA
    now Anand’s movie….great going srk…

  • If Avatar 2 ends up coming in Dec then both these films will be blown away,the first one broke alot of records, it was the highest grossing holywood film in Indian it took 6yrs for another film to break the record which was Furious 7.

  • If Avatar 2 ends up coming in Dec then both these films will be blown away,the first one broke alot of records, it was the highest grossing holywood film in Indian it gross over $23M, it took 6yrs for another film to break the record which was Furious 7.
