Robot 2.0 postponed, Golmaal Again vs Secret Superstar during Diwali

The release of Rajinikanth’s ‘2.0’ has been postponed due to pending work on “world class VFX”. The film will now release in theatres during the Republic Day weekend next year.

“We are working on world class VFX, and it is taking time. An extensive portion of the visual effects work will be carried out in the USA, and our team is working in full swing now. So, we have zeroed in on January 25th, 2018 as the worldwide release date” Raju Mahalingam of Lyca Productions said.

The sequel to the 2010 film ‘Enthiran’ also features Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who plays the lead antagonist.

The postponement of ‘Robot 2.0’ sets up a direct Diwali clash between Rohit Shetty’s Golmaal Again and Aamir Khan’s Secret Superstar.

For the Republic Day weekend next year, two films have already been announced – Neeraj Pandey’s Aiyaary and Sushant Singh Rajput’s Chandamama Door Ke. Robot 2.0 is the third and biggest film for the week.

    Why are you crying now??? Where was this wonderful sense during blabbering that Salman is nothing without eid??? Did I ever claim that srk is nothing without Deewali??? I just made a comparasion after seeing you guys blabbering on Bhai’s Eid releases…!

  • @aisha
    Your box office knowledge is as good as Rahul gandhi IQ level. ?
    In diwali 2005 Garam masala had not only kyuki but one more film to compete with..
    Garam masala vs kyuki vs shaadi no1
    GM made 30cr
    Kyuki (12.5) Sno1 (11.5cr)
    And shaadi no1 was a sanjay dutt starrer..
    Go get some correct information before writing novels here ?

  • @Aisha What a reply. Great Superb Sixer! All what you said was true I think they know but who will admit especially when Ethiran 2.0 has been shifted but honestly even I can bookmark this now and use it whenever they say shit about Ajay clashes.
    More grace to Indicine now for always alowing honest website news on their site.
    I can’t stop laughing for those gangs taking you alone but failed.

  • Dead Fool the link is below can’t you read and open it. Its not her that wrote it look link down the page. Chatterbox

  • Haha Kartik is Calling remove Priyadarshan and Makki movies also. Almost same no of hits Ajay has with Rohit same with Makki and PD. Go to box office and look at Hit counts Ajay is only behind Salman Shah Rukh and Akshay.
    ? Singham Baba

  • Well for me I think Jtjh won the clash the whole 1 week 2nd week was SoS which I did not really like but it has repeat value. I was upset with Ajay that period but everyone dont want to misuse a golden opportunity and his friends with Shah Rukh now so I have nothing against except he should choose better movies now since he has the talents one of the if not best.
    Somebody mentioned Fashion could not dent Golmaal 2 economics. Well Fashion won numerous awards including even few national awards and Filmfare. Pure Multiplex movie and had a better wom than golmaal 2. Experts know that many of us that appreciate true cinema same.
    @Aisha epic good one. Iron lady as always taking on these bunch of jokers.

  • Fashion was a real definition of Quality cinema after a long time centered on a woman Priyanka who did an excellent work on that movie though I dont know why they gave that Kangana National award!

  • @Aisha
    List is incomplete
    Baasigar vs bedardi 1993
    Dtph vs Bhai 1997
    Andaaz apna apna vs Suhaag 1994

    Btw Bhai lost so many clashes with Akki lol?

  • @aisha
    What rubbish is that??? I know it’s not u saying that!

    According to the article
    “Veer Zaara was a superhit, while Aitraaz despite receiving decent reviews and boasting big names like Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor Khan was an average grosser…..”

    So according to them, Veer Zaara was a thrashed film, had zero star value apart from Shahrukh Khan and what??? A universally loved film, Preity and Rani two of the top actresses those days and the top banner those days with major blockbusters like DDLJ, DTPH, etc with lead actor in the past. Abviously a superhit!

    While PC was still a new comer those days and Kareena didn’t have a single hit apart from K3G, her career was going nowhere at that time. A film with a bold content based on sexual harassment. Even a kid knows which film to watch that too on a big festival.

  • @aisha
    And I didn’t try to put down Ajay’s achievements during Diwali. I do appreciate his consistency. My earlier comment was only about G2 beating SIK and OSO and Blue’s performance.

    My apologies if I was too harsh in the past when the clash was announced. Well anyways, wish u ADians all the best for GA. Hope AD gets his highest grosser. Thank you.

  • @ROCKY 7:19
    WHT CONSISTENCY? ITS ALL ABOUT SHETTY..NO NEED To be nice wid these coal mine fans .. so many cmnts hve done one person from dffrnt names..lol ..adians?,? funny

  • @sayar

    Yes…. Bhai lost couple of clashes in past…. But he never runs away from any clash unlike your galaxy ka sabse bada gigastar. And losing a battle is million times better running away from the battlefield like a bhagoda. Isn’t it???

  • @sattu
    “More grace to Indicine now for always allowing honest website news on their site…”Big joke. That was the most ridiculous and biased article I’ve ever read.

    According to the article:

    2012 Diwali- “This marks the only time that two films simultaneously crossed the 100 cr mark during Diwali”. I literally laughed at this point and call it honesty!!!

    2004 Diwali- I already pointed it in my previous comment so won’t waste my time in this section.

    2005 Diwali- What was unthinkable in Garam Masala defeating Kyon Ki??? Day 1 collections itself showed which film was carrying more buzz. GM was the second highest opener of the year only after Mangal Pandey, that itself defines the hype it was carrying. Only unprofessional writer would use a word like ‘unthinkable’ like that! And WTH is Shaadi No. 1 in that list???

    2009 Diwali- “…For some reason Ajay Devgn has always had an upper hand against Akki during a clash…”. What non-sense, out 6 clashes between Akki and Ajay, Ajay had only won 2 of them in terms of opening (G3 vs AR and Raju Chacha vs Khiladi 420).
    “Blue despite good opening….” What sort of ‘honest information’ is that, Blue had an outstanding opening. One of the highest openings ever despite clash.
    Blue- 5.8 cr on 1500 screens
    ATB- 1.82 cr on 1300 screens
    MAMK- 1.64 cr on 750 screens
    And the writer, still includes the particular phrase “Ajay Devgn always had an upper hand over Akki in clashes…” in this section.
    We aren’t even talking about overseas. In terms of worldwide, Blue earned more than ATB.

    And what is this childish phrase “both films would have earned much more had the clash been avoided” in Diwali 2008 and 2012 columns. How can the writer use such an unprofessional statement? Obviously films lose money during clashes, even the producers know, we are talking about the winners of clashes, not about who the films were affected due to clashes. Even Veer Zaara-Aitraaz lost money, Garam Masala and Don were also affected, Blue would have earned somewhere close to another poor film of Akshay Kambakkht Ishq(47 cr) with solo release.

  • @Rocky, Are you forgot Pyaar toh hona hi tha VS Angaary? LOL , Ajay beat Opening to lifetime collection.

  • Look how many AK fans are following her and keep on coming back to comment for 3 days now. So much interest on Ajay

  • Never a too much fun!!! moment when AK fans totally dedicate their time on AJ topics. 3 days still counting Can’t wait for Independence day only 1 King will emerge

  • @Rocky…

    Personally I made up my mind I won’t come Back for any reply,I know the arguements won’t end. When my night shift break commenced I was bored decided to visit indicine but many irrelevant article thus I decided to comeback and visit this article today knowing definitely a particular fool(we all know him) will still post some off points.

    I some likes on my last comment and honestly was not expecting any question on it cos I cleared my point on G2 negative reviews but still grossed high,higher definitely had fashion not been released and about jthj and sos clash that emerged with 2,clean Hits. Listen I know what I post, this platform is a reference for younger generations who will be visiting Indicine every era…I make sure I dont just say things to shit my logic like that kid friends of yours. I know people after years will be visiting here and I want “@aisha” for the upcoming visitors to maintain her identity and not be foolishly disgraced or accumulate dislike comments and thats cos am matured and respect every movie star.

    You might be new here but had you been following my comments when its time to praise Akshay I do…why should I have personal hatred or sleepless night thinking how to bash another actor the next day? I stood behind Akshay on many articles even when His fans always castigate Ajay Sir and for me and many readers here shows maturity ,even other fans post comments like “@aisha you are standing behind Akshay despite how Akkians always abuse Ajay”…yes those type of comments lots of time. Same time somebody comes and say I am using different IDs…?? Auto liking? For what? Am a Doctor I dont even have that kind of time ,if you see me here am free from shift.

    you owe me no a apology …am already use to Akshay fans bashing Ajay.. It won’t stop. The only suprise package was @Deadpool. This is someone along with @Babaji Thallu that lots of times ,wish him luck,Praise and respect Ajay. Yes they do bash him but you can easily know from some comments of theirs that they have huge respect for Ajay. Thats why I got pissed off, @Sunny is a kid I dont even take him serious, he born hater of AJ sorry to say. So @Rocky I have no problem with you and I know I was a bit harsh so me too Sorry.

    Finally b4 I leave probably I dont think we will exchange arguments again nor reply, probably I will ignore, snub re tweeting you even if you bash Ajay (cos i know that will still come up) thats why I am giving you a detailed long page final conclusive perception of mine.
    You and your friends kept sticking with SoS collection. If I were you that would be completely irrelevant since the main aim was achieved… I too can use the facts below and make you think if really shouting about that is relevant or not..

    Fine you are against 102 crs for SOS but Singh is Bling opening all of you were pouncing on in divine for putting 16crs instead of 21crs…

    Son of Sardar Boi 88.6
    Producer figure 102
    Difference 14
    Verdict Clean Hit.

    SIB
    Opening BOI 16
    Producer opening 21
    Difference 5 cr for opening is very big.
    Lifetime Boi 71
    Lifetime producer 87
    Difference 16 cr
    Verdict Boi Flop
    Verdict Producer Semi Hit.

    SoS difference 14 cr both trades= clean hit
    SIB difference 16 cr both trades Flop S.Hit

    Baby BOI 81 cr
    Baby Trade 96cr
    Difference 15 cr

    Brothers Boi 70 cr
    Brothers Producer 83.7
    Difference 14 crs.

    Have I ever mentioned this? No I haven’t cos I know BOI have lots of limitations.

    Only Brothers difference is almost identical with Shivaay. Around 14cr difference. The rest like SIB lifetime is
    16 crs gap,
    Baby 15 crs gap but for 13 crs gap for SoS its a problem? Boi puts 16 cr for SIB did you see the protest from your fans just opening day a huge 5 crs difference! Saying Boi has limitation …but for Ajay Sir you call it Manipulation? You think even us did not find it funny?

    Finally ,I dont want to paste but at your leisure time…visit Golmaal 2 on Wikipedia, go to Reception and there you will see where they boldly stated G2 returns 1st 5days broke OSO 1st 5 days record. An saying this so that you dont have an impression on me that I create stories… No just go to G2 reception on wiki and read that portion if you see nothing like that you can call me manipulator or whatever.. Once again you owe me no apology I have forgotten I came across those statements.. All d best for 2.0.

  • Calling and inviting friends to like comment is good but a person like TEPK ooff Makkian outcast should know we already know his maximum strength whebmn
