Upcoming movies of Bollywood superstars in 2014 – 2015

Although movies like Gunday, Queen, Ragini MMS and Highway have fared well at the ticket window, there is a huge dearth of big ticket flicks in the first half of 2014. Apart from ‘Jai Ho’, the biggest stars in the industry will be giving the first 5 months of the year a miss.

While it gives ample opportunity to the new upcoming players in the game to make their mark and showcase their talent, it definitely does not mean that the superstars are slowing down. Factors like the upcoming Lok Sabha Elections, T20 World Cup, lack of holiday weekends and the IPL could also be a few reasons why their films arrive June onwards.

What this actually means is starting from June 2014, there is going to be a flurry of event movies. All the big guns will start their respective fire-works and audience will be in for a big treat.

Below is a quick list of upcoming movies of Bollywood’s biggest superstars:

Aamir Khan:

  • P.K. (Christmas 2014): He started the 100 crore club with ‘Ghajini’, 200 crore club with ‘3 Idiots’ and 250 crore club with ‘Dhoom3’. He is the only member in the 3rd club right now but he is all set to take a real shot at 300 crore club with Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘P.K’. This is the most awaited movie of the year by a distance.

Salman Khan:

  • Kick (Eid 2014): Salman missed out on Eid’s release in 2013 but he is back this year with a huge film ‘Kick’. It’s helmed by Sajid Nadiadwala and has screenplay written by Chetan Bhagat.
  • No Entry Mein Entry (Summer 2015): Breaking free from his routine action movies, Salman will return to comedy with a sequel to 2005’s biggest hit ‘No Entry’. Anees Bazmee, who directed the original, will ‘direct No Entry Mein Entry’ as well.
  • Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo (Diwali 2015): Salman and Sooraj Barjatya have together given the industry its biggest hits of 80s (Maine Pyaar Kiya) and 90s (Hum Aapke Hain Kaun) . Their 3rd outing ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ was the biggest hit of 1999. Salman is yet again changing the genre by returning to family movies opposite Sonam Kapoor.
  • Kabir Khan’s next (Eid 2015): Salman and Kabir’s last movie ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ just missed 200 crore mark by a whisker. But the combo is all set to fire again on Eid 2015 with their next untitled movie to be produced under Being Human banner.

Shah Rukh Khan:

  • Happy New Year (Diwali 2014): ‘Happy New Year’ will be SRK’s 11th Diwali release and none of his previous Diwali releases have disappointed his fans. This movie marks the return of SRK with his blockbuster director Farah Khan after ‘Main Hoon Na’ and ‘Om Shanti Om’.
  • Fan (Independence Day 2015): YRF and their fav hero SRK are coming together for the umpteenth time for Maneesh Sharma’s ‘Fan’ which will release during the Independence Day weekend next year.
  • Raees (Christmas 2015): SRK will be playing a local Don in Excel entertainment’s ‘Raees’ directed by Rahul Dholakia.

Hrithik Roshan:

  • Bang Bang (Gandhi Jayanti 2014): The rocking ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ pair of Hrithik and Katrina are all set to scorch the silver screen in Siddharth Anand’s slick flick ‘Bang Bang’. It’s a remake of Tom Cruise’s Hollywood film ‘Knight And Day’.

Akshay Kumar:

  • Holiday (June 6, 2014): A.R. Murugadoss’s first movie ‘Ghajini’ roared at the box office in 2008 and now he is back with his 2nd Hindi directorial venture ‘Holiday’ which is again a remake of his own Tamil movie Thuppakki.
  • Its Entertainment (August 8, 2014): Sajid-Farhad have penned the dialogues of some of the most memorable movies like Golmaal series, Housefull series and Singham. Now they are all set to direct their maiden venture with Akshay and Tamannah.
  • Gabbar: Gabbar is the remake of Tamil blockbuster Ramana. Akshay will be seen in beard for this movie opposite Shruti Hassan.
  • Jai Hind (Republic Day 2015): After the critically acclaimed ‘Special 26’, Akshay is back with ‘A Wednesday’ director Neeraj Pandey for Jai Hind.
  • Prabhudeva’s movie: Prabhudeva directed Akshay in 2012 blockbuster ‘Rowdy Rathore’ and the now the pair is coming back for the second time for an untitled movie.

Ranbir Kapoor

  • Bombay Velvet (Christmas 2014): Ranbir Kapoor in an Anurag Kashyap film will be something to watch out for. Anushka Sharma is the female lead and Karan Johar plays the villain. All good, the only problem is the release date. No film can afford a clash with P.K, irrespective of how big, who locked the release date first or who stars in it!
  • Roy: It will be a two-hero film, produced by T-Series. Ranbir will be playing the title role, Arjun Rampal has an equally important role to play.
  • Jagga Jasoos: Ranbir reunites with his Barfi director Anurag Basu. Expectations will be high. Jagga Jasoos will release next year.
  • Window Seat: Imtiaz Ali has signed Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone for a journey based love story. There are reports that they plan to release their film on Independence Day next year, a date that Yash Raj Films’ has locked for SRK’s FAN.

Projects awaiting confirmation:

  • Rumor mills are abuzz that Salman will star in the next instalment of Bollywood biggest’s franchise Dhoom under YRF.
  • Hrithik Roshan, who walked out of Shuddhi, is considering Ashutosh Gowariker’s next directorial movie.
  • Aamir Khan is yet to approve the next directorial venture of Farhan Akhtar.
  • And there are plenty of rumours around films that Shahrukh Khan and Ranbir Kapoor are considering too.

Who has the best film line-up in the next 2 years?

  • Eagerly waiting all 4 Salman Khan movies. My pick for 200+ is NEME, for 250+ cr is Kabir Khan film, for 300 + cr are KICK & Prem Ratan Dhan Payo. Best of luck @BeingSalmanKhan.

  • SRK and ranbir have a good lineup with variety of interesting roles. Don’t expect to see Aamir for 2 yrs after PK b/c he takes too long to decide, prep, and finish a movie and he only releases his movies on christmas.

    Don’t have high expectations from Kick and Sooraj’s next movie with salman bc those movies hardly work these days. Kabir khan’s next and no entry mein entry will be sure shot hits due to their genres/production banner;

  • Nice article Indicine out of these 17 movies i am extremely excited for Bang Bang, P.K. , Holiday, Jai Hind, No Entry Main Entry, Bombay Velvet and Happy New Year . I am also very much excited for Singham 2 .

  • No film can afford a clash against peekay… Hahaha what a joke… This movie will be a disaster just bcoz raju hirani is directing it doesn’t mean it will be a masterpiece like munna bhai… This is subject is not about education… It’s about aliens… So I wanna challenge indicine that their p.k. Will be a flop movie and is not at all the most awaited movie of 2014… Everyone knows how dhoom 3 worked… 4500 screens… Hiked ticked price… Sequal of superhit movie

  • Everything looks good on paper but this year is for KICK,if one becomes very objective.But one thing i know is that Salman cannot match Ravi Teja’s comic act.He is ugly and hey he is called South Akshay Kumar.He is really funny but Salman has his own style which i think we will not be disappointed
    But i dislike the opinion of Salman moving from masala/action movies

  • And Akshay Kumar,Holiday on 6 June.This is the Akshay kumar starrer,i am playing my bet on.
    One thing for sure,Holiday will bring back Akshay’s multiplex fans
    Thank God he is not doing south masala with larger than life roles

  • And for Happy New Year,i don’t think Action Jackson will clash with it and Farah Khan films apart from tmk were entertaining but low on content.
    And OSO broke dhoom2 record

  • 2015 will be very intresting
    .
    I will see all Salman’s Movie But i Also want to see Jaaga Jasoos,FAN,Raaes,JAI HIND…
    .
    THE BEST MOVIES OF BOLLYWOOD WILL COME IN 2015.
    .
    Finger Cross
    .
    Best Of Luck Sallu.

  • So in 2015,Akshay sir is bringing both master of class and mass.An action thriller with Neeraj sir and one with Prabhu Deva

  • You forgot SRK has another film with rohit shetty, he said it himself. He also said a month back he’s signed another film but he can’t reveal it.

  • Indicine, what about Shuddhi? It will definitely star a big superstar. There are rumours that Amir will be roped in for Shuddhi.

  • Is like Akshay sir is moving away from comic genre.Please Akshay sir,now most actors can do action but no one do comedy like you do.I think you are better in comedy than action
    And going by the pics shared by @holidaythefilm,Akshay sir and Sonakshi look lovable in a party song.It shows an amazing chemistry between them and Akshay sir look young and fit
    But i don’t want Sonakshi for this upcoming releases

  • All other actors have good line up of films except akki…his films are looking good on paper bt reality is different as he can deliver flop even with good directors…he is so desperate fr one hit film that he can even forgets to do orginal film,just look at his upcoming films all r south remake…poor guy…

  • Shahrukh Khan : all three movies are different.. Raees is the best amounts all ..

    to me…Most awaited are
    Raees
    Kick
    HNY
    PK / bang Bang
    FAN
    NEME

  • Srk upcoming films
    Hny diwali
    fan non holiday
    raees christmas
    shuddhi rumor
    bajirao mustani rumors
    Aliyan kalichara rumor

  • I think every top actor have good films lined up….
    But i am eagerly waiting for:

    SRK’s Raees
    Aamir’s P.K
    Akki’s Holiday,Gabbar,Jai Hind
    Hrithik’s Bang bang
    and
    Ranbir’s Bombay Velvet and Window seat

  • Ranbir will be a true superstar in next few years,considering the films he has…
    Window Seat will be a film to watch out for as it is directed by Imtiaz ali…and contains sparkling jodi of RK-DP.
