Viacom18 Motion Pictures and Sanjay Leela Bhansali have decided to stay away from Yash Raj Films’ Tiger Zinda Hai. The decision has finally been made to release the magnum-opus ‘Padmavati’ on November 17 2017, a month before the previously finalised date (15 December 2017).
The much-discussed clash between ‘Padmavati’ and ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ has been averted, making way for Salman Khan to get a completely solo ‘competition-free’ release during Christmas next year.
It’s the current form and box office supremacy of the superstar that makes it impossible for anyone to even think of taking him on. Not just in the week of his release, but most banners try to avoid releasing their films a week before and a couple of weeks after the release of his films.
‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is even bigger because it reunites Salman with his ‘Sultan’ director Ali Abbas Zafar, it’s a sequel to a major blockbuster ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ and has the backing of a banner like Yash Raj Films.
‘Padvamati’ is one of the biggest releases of 2017 too. It features Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor in the lead. It won’t get the advantage of holidays, but could get a 4 week open run if there are no major releases between ‘Padmavati’ and ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’.
It’s a good and sensible decision, during times when most banners seem to be obsessed with festive and holiday weekends for their big films.

Salman Khan is the King of Kings !
i thnk bahubali is missing in the list which is slated to release in the month of april
Tiger zinda hai 400 cr Likh ke le lo Tubelight 380 cr
@indicine Can you please analyse the ‘Befikre’ trailer
The look on the face of some after reading the title of this post – PRICELESS
Who in their sane mind would want to clash with Salman?
Is bar Tubelight jalne wali nahi hain.
@Prashant abhishek , yes Srk was consistent, but only in giving average or semi-hit and max Hit, that’s it, and this does not make him big superstar because after working with Big Banners, Big Actress and Big Director and Multistar cast movie, if you cannot give Blockbusters then it means you have no stardom….
1) In his so called golden period (2000-2008 at max) he manage to give only 4 Blockbusters and ZERO ATBB….
2) In his golden period he face so many clashes, not only from big stars but also from new comers, which clearly shows no one scared from him……yes he won maximum clash that time (most from small margin) but at the 1st place he should not face any clash, if he was at top…..
On the other hand…..Megastar Salman Khan on his Golden Phase
1) Salman’s Golden Phase (2010-Till Date & Still Running) he give 8 Blockbusters and ATBB (Combine)……
2) No one dare to clash with him, he book his date like a TIGER and rest leave that date like a RAT……..Note EID 2018 is still vacant but no one dare to book that date….WHY????…
There is huge difference in Megastar Salman Khan’s Golden Phase and Srk golden phase….
Hope you get this in your thick head…..
Does it not look like a cyclical effect. Salman has not had a clash in a long time. He has had the privilege of releasing his movies on the best holiday’s of the year and usually no major movie releases within 3-4 weeks of that. SLB took SRK on during Christmas 2015, against all odds and came out winner. Salmans true value can only be established if someone can have that same kind of courage, to take on Salman, with their big release. Till then i believe he is capitalizing on other’s fear
@aryan bharadvaj ha ha ha. u made me laugh so much. If salman books all the edx no one will dare to clash? Abe dhakkan, did u forget 2013? In that year all the EDX were booked and salman ran away like coward and released jai ho on republic day. Actually jai ho was initially supposed to release on eid 2013, but after CE announced he decided and tried to release on christmas but when he heard that megastar aamir khan booked christmas for dhoom 3, he was scared and ran away from the might of Aamir and released jail ho on republic day. Thats his aukaat. He can mess with anyone else but he can never mess with Aamir. If Aamir wants all the EDX then he will surely get as no one can ever dare to clash with true megastar and even salman will run away and postpone his movie to next year to make way for Aamir.
@hrithik dont be saint. Your moronic mate @Salman khan queen khan started it first on 4th page on this article. Look at his language first how cheap he is. He has been bashing aamir for many months and we have tried to ignore him many times. Now we wont stay silent if he doesnt stop his crap.
@hrithik dont bash aamir for that chameleon. We dont consider him. You are sensible enough to ignore them. Even there is another chameleon @Salman king khan who is creating fights between the fans. So ignore those loons. I can bet you that he is using fake ids to create mess.
lallu fan takla Khan,time will decide who’ll thrash whom.2018 CHRISTMAS reserved by MEGASTAR KING SRK.AND IT IS LKKELY TO BE EID ALSO WILL BE TAKEN BY HIM.
if your two rs star have any guts,thennlet him to announce on that date.because 1st krish4 announced on the same star later woh bhi bhaag gaya.ASLI KHEL OF KING KHAN WILL START ON 2018 FOR BOX OFFICE.because KING KHAN is now doing some offbeat classics.w which your 1 rs star can never think of in his dreams even.
@ultron-lallumaniac,don’t know about RAEES,THE RING,but lallu will definitely come to road on 2017 onwards,WHEN MEGASTAR WILL BOOK ALL BIG HOLIDAYS ,then all time clash loser lallu will definitely beg Infront of MANNAT.
@sss hey dud luk at Ur 0.25 rs star Don’t even dare to release film with Hrithik N u r talking abt megastar supreme star Salman..

@SSS Consult a psychiatrist.
@seenu,ha ha ha ha .really 0.25 star?then WHO IS WORLD’S 2ND RICHEST ACTOR?you garibon ka rikshawala star lallu Khan?ha ha ha ha.beta 22 saal se ek record breaking movies dene ki aukaat nahi Hain in 7 EIDS too.hence you shouldn’t call him supreme rather sunwar star,rofl.
@nilesh,do you need psychiatrist?as you should have tell your problem,which you’ll face in near future,contact me at taht time,I’ll manage you a best psychiatrist for you,rofl.
@sss : IPL aur NRI Mujreys ki kaamayi pe ittni shaan ??
@sss : Remeber the difference between Kaali and Sultan and Raam Laal and Tiger. SLB chased and hunt down your queen last Christmas and from Salman he moved away !!!!!!!!!!!!!
#Difference
@hrithik(original),marriage function se hardly koi 5-10cr earn Karta Hain.but how can someone can earn 600 MILLION USD and become WORLD’S 2ND RICHEST ACTOR until and unless HE has a Global Brand value like MEGASTAR KING KHAN?????,ROFL.
even Hrithik roshan too attended weddings but he is nowhere closer to KING KHAN,why?????apni apni aukaat Hoti Hainw which your Bhojpuri south remake star can never earn in upcoming 1000 birth,rofl.
And 2009 born non actor ke newly born 2009 classless fan,south ki movie churake aur logon ko footpath se udake kamane Wala criminal pe itni Shaan hain?????,rofl.
Remember the difference between MEGASTAR DON and marigold star aka follower of JAANE man.aukat toh pata hi Hoga!!!!!kyun?????RAEES BHAI gave EID bheek to garibon ka sultan in THIS EID for the sake of ADIJI/YRF ,WHO once shifted DHOOM 2 for DON,ROFL.and don’t forget even taking Aamir Khan,YRF made way for KING KHAN IN CHRISTMAS 2018 just for the sake of EID bheek given to lallu Khan THIS EID,rofl.
bhansali is always a hater of KING KHAN.why because he doesn’t ever wanted KING KHAN to climb up and up.hence he is helping his maalik lallu Khan who brought him to Bollywood by flashing against KING KHAN.I know that conspiracy.still Kya ukhad Liya?????KAALI thrashed that puny aukaat less man in OPENING+WW LIKE A LION despite of having weak story and protest by doing 400CR WW.AUKAAT!!!!!KING KHAN brought bhansali to road in 2007 and almost destroyed his whole career.while poor bhansali just managed to survive in clash in domestic and won and in rest badly lost like loser he was despite of having full support from media to industry, rofl.AUKAAT!!!!!,ROFL.Meanwhile Bhai is yet to give a average instead of flops/disaster in clash ,rofl. bhansali ke peeche chupnewala ,see real aukaat of your bhabijaan in clash.IN 90’S—-CHAMATKAR vs jaagruti,IN LAST DECADE—–DON VS JAANE man,CDI VS marigold,OSO VS saawariya,rofl.aur kitni dikhaoon auakat Teri gareebon ka sultan ki?,rofl.
