Raees not postponed, releasing Eid 2016

A couple of hours ago, a well-known trade analyst posted on his official Twitter page that Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees had been postponed to a later date. We asked quite a few people in the industry, no one had a clue.

Funnily, the makers had no clue either.

Then came producer Ritesh Sidhwani’s tweet, confirming that the rumour was baseless.

Check out the tweets:

Komal Nahta: And now, here’s the news of the year!! Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees has been postponed. It will NOT clash with Salman Khan’s Sultan on Eid this year.

Ritesh Sidhwani: Some people spreading Rumours about #Raees release being moved.. Like I said RUMOURS.

There you go then, Raees releases in theatres during Eid this year. The film will hit theatres on Wednesday, 6th July 2016, with the Eid holiday falling on the same day.

  • How can someone be so shameless as Komal? i mean how can you spread rumour ( just bec of some money ) without confirming from official?

    if there is something more cheap than Salman’s tweets, it is Komal’s tweets..

  • If dilwale had been postponed, I would have gotten angry …
    but if Raees gets postponed I am going to commit suicide …
    I am not joking !!!!
    this much anger is inside my head !!!!!!!!

  • So, it looks like Shahtouk fans the demise of their idol’s career sooner rather than later… They want their fragile queen to clash with the mighty Sultan…
    Newcomer has started it and Salman will finish it.
    SLB took his revenge well. Now Salman will take for Jaanemann..
    Every body knows Shahtouk’s stardom is no more a megastar as this is no more 2000s..

  • This will go on. Rice will release on Eid. POSTPONED, NOT POSTPONED, POSTPONED, NOT POSTPONED UNTIL RICE SELLER BIKHARI RUNS AWAY FROM SULTAN JUST BEFORE DUE TIME.

  • I don’t want the clash…. with it Salman can still continue his phenomenal box office runs while Shah rukh can also make a bold move by saying I am back…dilwale was past Raeees is present.

  • If Eid falls on Wednesday, then it is very good for Raees …
    but again I say it with lots of boldness that Raees should come on 1st July 2016 !!!!!!!
    doesn’t matter if loltan postpones or not
    but Raees should come on 1st July !!!!!
    if Raees really gets appreciated by the audience then God bless all records !!!!!!

  • SRK & EID still a better love story than twilight.

    This Eid Only Raees

  • Cheap Publicity Stunt by Sultan Team, Komal Nahta was either paid or informed by Sultan PR Team to do this..as simple as that…

  • only waiting the baap of all movies DANGAL. Dangal will shatter all records and it will be first film to cross 400 cr in india. the real sultan is coming this christmas. `no chance for anyone else.

  • @anand the fake , ur bhai has been trounced several times by srk !!!!!!!
    don vs janeman
    cdi vs marigold
    I wish tomorrow was Eid so that I could watch bhai being put to shame in front of everyone !!!!!!!!!!

  • @Javed don’t be so stupid and crazy. Life is not something not to be play with. we all live once. Allaah and Hamara prophet Muhd also tough us how precious our time is. Think wise my Friend don’t be a coward

  • 1. All these stupid SRK fans ……from where got the news that RAEES is a superb mind-blowing film…….May be the movie had been released for those stupid fans in Maratha Mandir………Or from the makers itself…..Like Farhan Akhtar……

    2. From stupid SRK fans………Sultan is an epic disaster………Reason Director….Ali Abbas Zaffar…….
    These foolish morons should understand that same director could make the best ……out of a good storyline script…….There is every possibility……..(Few morons talk about Gunday…..IMDB 2.0……But for god shake don’t know the reason behind it…..Total more than 50000 votes for such movie)

    3.RAEES vs Sultan ……….will not happen for sure…………because of trade(Nobody wants to to loose money)……..There will be a gap of 10 days to two weeks for sure…….Both will shift for sure……

    4. Also it’s 2016…….not 2006 or any year…….you idiot SRK mindless fans…………

  • I still feel the clash will be averted.

    If not then the release day will be some fun day here at Indicine with both SRK and Salman fans going all bashing each other and Indicine will create the record of most hits on its website.

  • Waiting for mother of all Clashes…
    Raees vs sultan… one thing is sure in here kerala Raees will get double screens than sultan….
    north there was neck to neck fight… but All othr south indian states salman is not popular… But SRK is achieved huge fan following…. SRK is achevied huge female & male fans from south indian…
    but I think Raees vs Sultan content is the winner… big chance for Raees… And opening is concerned there SRK is a all time big superstar than salman…

  • They are waiting for fan release if this film fail or disappoints then they will surely postpone the crapees .but let the clash happen and this time haklu will loose worldwide battle too as Sultan buzz is very high and it will take huge opening and weekend ,lifetime will be depend on script.
    And coming to this fake rumors its all planned by makers of crapees to be in news as they know sultan is gaining more buzz even without any teaser or posters and recently anushkas video also increased the excitement level and whereas crapees have put all their source posters and trailer ,dialogues but still failing to match sultan craze …..

  • So it is confirmed that flop king Salman will be retired from the cinema after being disaster Lultan. Though I don’t like SRK too much but this time we Akki fans will support SRK and his film #Raees. Even Lultan will be unable to collect 100 cr. Flop king Salman ke flop fans :D

  • Right now watching #Fitoor on theater.
    And this #Eid evry1 should say –
    Sab 19 ye 20 hai
    Hamara neta RAEES hai.
    #Raees vs #Sultan
    Legend vs legend

  • @Joe srkian : Your Lallu Bhai is nothing without South Remake and Eid holidays. Akki is the real megastar and Salman also is a megastar but only in Pluto lol Bhairoxx

  • @Anandi the Pirated DVD thrown in trash can 10:54, its sound so hilarious that an actor who has given most number of flops and disasters is talking about the world’s biggest star and most successful megastar of the millenium SHAHRUKH KHAN. You rikshawaala, wait till eid and save your ass as much as you can, raees don will beat the crap out of tiny puny bhojpuri Dulltan. Competing with megastar SRK is not cup of tea for your floppy bhojpuri star who is just nothing in last decade. And tell us more jokes please. Salman will end it? What? Jai ho Ko to bacha nahi paaya! LOL. Ek bhi clash toh jeet nahi paaya. And you dabba, dhakkan, dilwale’s opening was much bigger than Disaster director SLB’s boring torture crap, its just a word of mouth which saved tiny flop director SLB. So dont cry, srk will be back to hunt his shikaar once again like a wounded lion. Salman never was, never will be as big as ultimate megastar srk. Forget about being mighty.
