Rajinikanth’s ‘Kabali’ averts clash against Salman Khan’s Sultan

Tamil Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming gangster drama film ‘Kabali’ will hit theatres on July 1st 2016, which falls in the Pre-Eid period.

The decision to release the film before Eid was taken to avoid any clash against Salman Khan’s keenly-awaited film Sultan, which releases in theatres on July 6.

“The film was earlier slated to release in June. It has been now pushed to July 1. The makers had also planned to release on July 7 but have advanced the release to avoid a clash with Salman Khan’s ‘Sultan’” a source confirmed.

Directed by Pa. Ranjith, ‘Kabali’ is the story of the rise of a gangster from rags-to-riches. The film also stars Radhika Apte, Dinesh, Kalaiarasan, Dhansikaa and Ritwika.

  • Look at Srk fans they are so stupid and illiterate that even they cannot digest the truth…no matter how many facts and proof you show them they stupidly ignore them that’s their biggest problem that they live in their dream world…I gave you the list of movies instead of checking it they argue with Salman fans…1st go and check these movies (Bazigar, Chak de India, Swadesh, MNIK, OSO, Mohabbatein, KKHH, Chalte Chalet, Daar, FAN, Krazzy 4, Koyla, One 2 ka 4) from the list and then argue…and don’t forget that Srk also worked in 3 official remakes Don, Devdas and Billu Barber
    Yes Salman do remakes of movies but he is much better than Srk because he buys the rights of the movie not like Srk who shamelessly stole the script and plot from Hollywood, Kannad, Marathi and others movies.

  • @indicine, Where is Raman Raghav 2.0 trailer?? I have watched that trailer and I can say that, RR 2.0 will be a cult classic for sure. please post its trailer so that other people here can also watch this and decide how breathtaking the trailer is.
    And please don’t write off Anurag Kashyap just for one movie- Bombay Velvet, he has given at least 4-5 cult classics like Black Friday, Gangs of Wassaypur 1-2, Dev D etc as a director. Please appreciate this gem director.
    Watch RR 2.0 for Nawaz also. Brilliant!

  • good decision….Rajni’s star power will give it a better opening weekend and then after weekend, there’s Eid holidays…

  • indicine are u salman?why don’t u post my comments ?i have commented almost 9 10 but u didn’t post rather u post salman fans all comments whether it is good or not…are u salman fan?

  • @Challa : Tumhari itni kyon jalli padi hai Salman se ? No matter what you write your bhagoda idol will not come back to Eid to clash, bhagoda fans should remain in aukaat and think about how to beat Hrithik & Akki. Megastars are light years ahead of bhagoda king !!!!!!!!

  • Respect for Rajini sir & Kabali makers. A wise decision for both benefit of both movies. No fake buzz, no Controversaries, no postpones simply humility !!!!!! And some bhagoda king fans are comparing to most humble man called Rajini !!!!!!!!!

  • Rajani will trash non actor loltan in this eid..
    Non Actor have zero fan following in south markets…no one can interested in Salman movies in south.. because of his south copy remakes… This time kabali will beat s ultana in overseas market…

  • If content is good both Sultan & Kabali will do well however Sultan will be slightly impacted in South India !!!!!!!!!

  • Some SRK fans have gone mad after FAN debacle & Raees run away hence making comments which looks more foolish on them.

    Bandar ka dimaag, Meoww behen ki daring !!!!!!!! Bhaag raha hoon mein (Eid/Clash/Sultan Salman se) !!!!!!!!!!

    Too much fun !!!!!!!!!!

  • @ moh movies – that list was made by Indicine method. If you wanna understand type ” top actor in india 2015″ on google then you will understand how kkhh in srk two times.

  • @loltan bushan 1.21 Pm

    Then wat about salman??
    His all film worked with south remakes or eid…without south copy & Eid his position is same like Zayed khan & Fardeen khan…
    Get a life man…

  • Rajnikant took wise decision because his movie can earn more if he will release on other date. Salman is legend of north Rajnikant is legend of south and Srk was, is and will be remain as legend of pluto.

  • doest matter with all due respect to Rajni Sir ……south movie isn’t at all a threat to Bollywood its Hollywood which making an impact…..

    SultanAliKhan …….EID2016

  • @ challa- burn from Salman’s success but like candle. God sent most srkians without brain and herart. I thought you are exception but you are same.

  • i think kabali was never officialy announced for eid. so no one is averting anything if it wasnt official

  • Hahahaha no option of clashing with the box office khan. Anyways who will give u screens? If u clash with Sultan bhai u may be lucky to get 20 screens. Trade pundits mass class Hindus Muslims christains everybody wants sirf SULTAN this Eid! Its a carnival!

  • the only reason Raees vs Sultan clash was averted cuz of screens problem. YRF had pre-booked screens for Sultan during FAN screen booking. (almost 2000 screens) So all those people who are saying SRK darr gaya is not right if they had clashed Raees would HV got less single screens release . so they pushed release date. YRF is biggest production house so its Destribution strategy is best and Excel can’t compete with it. u need EROS or UTV to compete with YRF .. but Red chillies and Excel are nothing. All people know what happened during Dilwale vs Bajirao clash .. Bajirao had around 2900 screens and Dilwale only 2600 screens. so u need gud production house always!

  • Wow!! Even the South Megastar preponed his film because of a Bhai film..That’s called Megastardom… Sultan Bhai roxxxxx… Can’t wait for this Eid….

  • On the other hand, the so called biggest global superstar keeps running away clashing from Bhai.. Bhagoda ki Ghanta stardom…

  • @Challa, finally out of the depression after the Fan disaster??
    Wah Pot is Calling Kettle Black? Do you think your bhagoda king is innocent and controversy free? Clean your own mess first before you point out at others.
