  • Christmas 2013 – Dhoom 3 (Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif, Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra)

In 2012, every holiday / festival release has crossed the 100 crore mark - Agneepath (Republic Day), Ek Tha Tiger (EID), Rowdy Rathore (Post-IPL), Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Son Of Sardaar (Diwali) have all gone on to be huge grossers. With 65 crores in 3 days, Dabangg 2 is also likely to join the club this week.

No surprise then that the lucrative holiday period has already been taken, almost a year in advance!

Ironically, two superstars Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan are left with no holidays. In the last 3 years, Salman has always ensured that he arrives with an action film during EID. However, in 2013, Balaji Motion Pictures have announced their plans to release their ambitious sequel ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Again’ on August 8th. Will there be a clash? If Salman announces his film for EID, will Balaji back out?

When will SRK release his two films – Chennai Express and Happy New Year? Recently, Farah Khan said she was keen on releasing ‘HNY’ during Christmas.. how about Dhoom 3 vs Happy New Year?

Exciting times ahead. Like always, keep visiting Indicine for all the updates!

For now, vote for the most awaited Holiday release of 2013!

  • Salman only concentrates on record,he knews that jthj wud go very close to ett if it had solo release,thats y he make ajay bali ka bakra,initially ajay was about to change his movie dates,he knows that the only person who is big threat for him is SRK,thats y he didn’t want to srk films solo release,he is just like his fan,n he never changes his genre becoz he knows that his days wud be gone without south remakes,

  • @am srk: u r such an idiot,u say dt hr iz spoon feeded actor,accept dt 3 bb wer his dad directed films,but wats wrong in dt….his dad iz establishd director and wen knph releassed,the opening was poor,but bcoz of hrithik fresh ttalent and excellnt wom it bcame bb….nd if u cum out of his dads movies,his scnd film mission kashmir opened with bumper opening evn beating d likes of establish actor like srk…such was d craze…nd dhoom2,ja,znmd,agneepath wer all huge grossers ….wtf ur talkin about star power???dhoom2 iz d biggest hit which ran without a major holiday…u wait till nxt diwali,u ll knw wat he iz ll about

  • @am Srk so u consider Abhay n Farhan stars c’mon then i will say Vinod Khanna n Arbaaz r also Stars in Dabang…n for sanjay he+BigB gave Biggest Disaster of the yr Department…give genuine reasons .

  • We all know Salman is full Plastic Botoxed, he removed eye bags through in 2010 fake obese physique he has even Varun Dhawan Uday Chopra r better…

  • Salman’s Radhe will be blocbuster OUTINA will flop or Average. Krish3 flops like kite or average in diwali, Dhoom3 will be blockbuster in chritmas. KICK will be blockbuster.

  • salman surely comes on eid. he owns it. it is eid which revive his career if any other film also annouces earlier then there r no offence. let’s have a clash though being a salman fan i am not a biggest fan of his recent movies. ouatim 2 will be good quality wise but truly it will be unstoppable to salman even if he comes with a movie as bad as dabang cz i don’t like it and that too with a break of almost 7 months. so it will be impossible to stop single screens hoverings and a good movie like ouatim2 suffers same the way janeeman suffers when released with don. hope for the best for both.

  • mister jyothi.m whats your name

    nomi
    producers r going to salmans dupe before going to salman
    salman wont dare to release his movie opposite akshay
    if it happens akshay will win

  • @am srk your stupid if dad could make their sons actor than uday chopra would be biggest actor in india oh and what about Salman when his career was finish after giving more then 20 flops then arbaz khan gave him his helping hand and produced Dabangg to help salman`s sinking caeer he even went far to save his brother career by using his wife malaika arora khan`s body to make dabang successful.

    @fans salman is not rich just type salmans net worth in google and compare with orther actors you will be surprised

  • @am srk. So what Amir khan was lauched by his uncle Nasir hussein and even produced and directed Amir khan`s 5-6 films in row to help Amir at the end of the day it doesn’t matter coz fans don’t go and watch movies coz x has directed. Yash chopra tried hard to make uday chopra successful actor by lauching his son and producing 6-7 movies but he failed coz at the end of the day audience make actors succesful not papa or uncles or directors. Today wherever Amir khan or hrithik are not coz of their dad or uncle its coz of their fans.

  • Krish 3 will meet the same fate as does R.one.when r.one u idiot shahruk fans were saying it would do a hollywood n collect 500 crores n same is the case with hrithik fans.take my word it will not cross 130 crores despite getting good openining n i hav no personal grudge agains hrithik but u idiot hrithik fans surpass the boundaries.

  • Krish 3 will meet the same fate as does R.one.when r.one released u idiot shahruk fans were saying it would do a hollywood n collect 500 crores n same is the case with hrithik fans.take my word it will not cross 130 crores despite getting good openining n i hav no personal grudge agains hrithik but u idiot hrithik fans surpass the boundaries.

  • @king you will never see hrithik fans behaving badly I have nothing against salman but salman fans try to put every actor down. Just see @am srk comments

  • Choti Eid weekend is taken but am I right in thinking that Badi Eid (October) is still open? Also, there is Independence day weekend still free so there are still windows of opportunity for those actors without confirmed dates.

    Secondly, this bickering between different groups of fans is childish, it’s like being in the school playground again, “my dad is stronger than yours”, “no, my dad can beat your dad up”. Grow up, they’re just entertainers, not gods.

    Salman is undoubtedly the biggest box office star in India at the minute but only for the last 2 years. Srk has been the most consistent and well known Indian actor internationally for 2 decades now and his overseas record is unmatched, he is in a league of his own abroard. His fanbase isn’t as big as others in India hence his films top out in the 120cr range but he could get bigger numbers in future if he has a film with good word of mouth and a family friendly theme. His last 4 films will have grossed over 800 cr plus between them around the world. He is still one of the few major forces in India despite what his haters say.

    Aamir is a pioneer. First man to 100cr and the only man to pass 200cr till now. He is always capable of repeating these numbers in future and is widely respects by film goers and peers. Hrithik is young and hot on the heels of the khans. He already has big grossing films and with his looks and ability, will only get bigger. He is arguably the srk of his generation.

    Ajay and Akshay are not as consistent as the above mentioned but still big enough to produce big grossers. However, if either of these two decide to release a film on the same date as the above 4, they will more than likely lose out, as proved this Diwali.

    There are other actors out there waiting to take the place of the old brigade, Ranbir is the best of the rest with the jury still out on imran khan. Emraan hashmi is underated too producing good numbers with lower budget films.

    But the truth is, the Market is ever expanding and big enough and to accommodate everyone. And the biggest star title will always change hands as it has done in the last 10 years. It has been passed from sunny to srk to hrirhik to srk to akshay to aamir to salman. And it will carry on so.

    Oh yeah and to the guys who mentioned the word “craps”, the plural of crap is still crap. Craps is a type of casino game.

  • For examine Salman’s power first & most needy thing is that atleast someone dare to clash with him.

    But no one dare it.Because doing it mean “pair pe kuladi nahi,kuladi pe pair marna”.

    Most chances are that,Radhey will confirm on Eid & if it happnes then mark my words QUTIM2 will release on different date.

  • Aamir and Hrithik will dominate 2013 with Krissh 3 and Dhoom 3 phir 2014 to Rajkumar Hirani’s PK will dominate from start to end.

  • Guyz is salman bollywood star or tollywood star or bhojpuri star plz can someone tell me nope he is C-grade star haha @am srk your bigesst fool

  • @am srk, u r retarded human being, go home , ur mom is waiting to feed u cerelac ! u cn c hw many r supporting , jst c d lyks n dislyks of ur comment !

  • X zone nTo al Srk fan. . Salman any hw wil get eid release next year but u think of Srk ce nor he get diwali or chris mas nor eid release he has to satisfy with non holiday release . .Haha

  • SOME PEOPLE ARE TALKING IN THE NET THINKING THEIR ACTOR IS BIGGER IN INDIA BUT TRUTH COME WHEN MOVIE RELEASE AT CINEMA I MEAN BOX OFFICE ALL RECORDS BROKE ONE LEFT 3-IDIOTS OVERALL AND THAT WILL BREAK VERY SOON THE POWER THE STARDOM BELONGS TO SALMAN ONLY SAY WHATEVER TALK WHATEVER EVEN AMIR SAID HE LIKE SALMAN MOVIE AND WHEN WATCHING HE BROUGHT WHISTLE WITH HIM.

    HIRTHIK IS LIKE KID AND DOING KIDS MOVIES KRISH WHO GROW UNDER THE GUIDE OF SALMAN WHO TRAINED HIM ALLOW HIM TO USE HIS GYM IN HIS EARLY DAYS SRK AS WELL SHELTER AND FOODS IN HIS HOME WHEN HE CAME NEW TO MUMBAI.

    BEST ACTOR BEST HUMAN BEING.
