@imakn r u out of ur mind ur srk always comes with festival…since 2000 he is booking only festival still could nt got a ATBB….LOL….salmans jai ho was a non festival ….remember raone during diwali started with bang but only 107 cr…pathetic man ….salman’s non festival crossed that…lol
@ajay flops tell me which site declare mnik semi hit only flop devgn did himatwala, aj with out rohit shetty, don’t worry shavay won’t get solo release ranbir or shahid or varun starer film clash with flop devgn film
@joker roshan satpathy,talk about salman’s holiday collection 1st.look at disasters main aur Mrs khanna,yuvraj,marigold.and don’t forget that epic lost in a clash against KING KHAN was jaaneman thrashed by DON.
which non holiday you’re talking about.jai ho? tat’a republic day release,even he’s ap-2 was collected than that lallu’s jai ho.or talking about ready?which is a post IPL release ,in which ranbir’s YJHD collected more than ready,lol.so salman never released a complete non holiday movie after 2010.just like KING KHAN released MNIK in FEBRUARY 2010.which grossed 200CR WW.shame on you and your south copy paste star.
Now this movie definitely hit
Any big movies release on Diwali,
Eid and Christmas automatically
create big buzz
He is not a big stars like the khans definately he ruined 2016 as well as 2017
Great decision by Ajay sir…you already proved that u can release ur movies festive and non festive period and u also proved that u r the king of clashes…still can’t forget who SOS outperformed JTHJ.
btw @to all stupid SRK fans why u guys crying on Ajay’s article? lolz Height of insecurity
SAROOK needs Eid,diwali Christmas to give hit otherwise his movie will be flop. .
rakesh roshan satpathy – CE was not ATBB? who is out of mind you just proved it.. CE – ATBB with just 6 days free run, with alot of clashes on EID while your bhojpuri Bhai jaan failed several times with huge free run, blockbuster remake and solo release..
2010 released Ra.one has still more gross than jai ho lol. jai ho failed to gross it.. Ra.one was also the highest grosser of 2010.. had way more gross than Salman’s dabang & also won best actor award, became ATBB W-W and OS and became the biggest ever hit of this decade in Overseas.. became the first movie to gross 100cr in overseas and and was 1000 times bigger hit than Salman’s Veer in Domestic, W-W and OS which came in the same year and become industry disaster..
Non holiday release RNBDJ Blockbuster, CDI Blockbuster with out any item songs, female cast..50 time less screens while Salman gave flop with on non holiday ( jai ho ) failed to get even hit tag with 50 times more screens even when it was a remake of huge blockbuster.. was commercial movie still failed to cross W-W gross of 2008 release RNBDJ and failed to cross 20 years old KKHH collection in Overseas.. idiot..
Waiting for Shivaay but not for SOS 2. Ajay is brave and he will not move from festive date if he decided to release unless there is Salman film planned on that date.
@fake you said Disaster, An ajay film never lost in clash.He mostly wins in clash.
All the best vs blue vs MAMK
Golmal 3 vs Action replay
Jthj vs SOS, despite being less screens the film stood strong against jthj and was a hit.
Even his debut film Phool Aur kaante was a super hit against yash ji flop Lamhe.
The only clash I remember he lost was Toonpur Ka Superhero but its for kids and was half animation film.
Shivay will be a success.

I want Akshay Kumar movie on EID and DIWALI
@ Legend Aamir Khan :
Tingu ji needs Christmas to give HITs otherwise his movies will be TALAASH !!!
Now let’s see what is the reaction of Karan johar
Indicine : WTH is this.. first you didn’t allow my comments when i did it again now look the same comment has been allowed 3 times. :/
guys there won`t be any clash between srk and ad…also no clash with salman and aamir…..ad is wise enough to check on these before announcing….only obstacle for divali 2016 is karan johar if only ayan mukherjee next comes!
just take a look at d promotional event of jaaneman…salman himself recommended people to go for Don…he knows well jaaneman was a spoiler dats d kind of heart & dare d man have not like ur greedy khan…begging people for watching his movie…lol…lol…lol..lol…lol
Look like khan’s movies becomes big hit due to holiday release unless go in JH and MNIK way
Ajay Devgan ka josh dekh ,
Karan Johar hogaya behosh
@ benaam: Talaash 93 cr
MNIK 72 cr.
Talaash earn more than Sarook’s disaster Mnik.

Drishyam will be huge success, mark my words
@rakesh roshan satpathy,expected better excuse from you.this one is the lamest excuse of all.you are a big jerk.in that whole decade all salman films were flop/disasters that means HE advised to all to go and watch only KING KHAN’S films who has the HIGHEST HITS at that time,right you illiterate,ha ha ha how typical lallu’s brainless you’re!!!!!

@The phenom talaash’s budget 40 crores, no promotion, no controversies, pure non holiday release and still 93 cr. My name is khan’s budget more than 40 crores, huge hype, controversies, and non holiday and only 73 crores. and you call talaash average/flop and my name is khan as hit. hats off Mr. Srkian aka dumby aka moron. you proved the legacy of SSS, Romance varunwale and many other brainless species from srkian community. hope only a world’s most clever psychiatrist can only save you and does some treatment to you all.
