The big box office clash between Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani and Rohit Shetty’s Dilwale is confirmed. The distributors of Bajirao Mastani had started blocking single-screen theatres a couple of months ago and the makers of Dilwale too have done the same.
On paper, Dilwale is a much bigger film, both in terms of star cast and a universally appealing genre. However, Bajirao Mastani is likely to be promoted as a film with larger-than-life sets and high production values. In short, a film that is best enjoyed only on the big screen.
The producer of the film, Krishika Lulla of Eros Entertainment, is confident that her film will survive the clash and do well at the box office.
Talking about the clash, Indian Express quoted Lulla as saying ”As a producer who wouldn’t have preferred a solo release? I am sure they (Dilwale) would have also preferred the same. (But) Everybody has a right to come at their own time. We had announced our dates earlier.”
About 3 years ago, Eros first decided to release their film against a SRK starrer when Ajay Devgn’s Son Of Sardaar and Jab Tak Hai Jaan released on the same day. Both films did well at the box office and Krishika is hoping the result, this time around, is the same.
“There are so many movies which have come together. So, I am hoping both films do well” she said.
Bombay masti.
I m sure dilwale won’t be any cult classic
But i m damn sure so will be bajirao
Bajirao might had sustained the clash
But given its cost , with a solo release too its impossible for it to do so
Its stupid of them to release it opposite dilwale
No doubt bm will affect dilwale
But dilwale will destroy bm
KHANS Bad days begins

This Time EDX (EidDiwaliXmas) holidays will burn down Khans Career Completely
it’s d era of khans…

dilwale will be a sureshot bb collecting 275 cr with clash or without clash
Good !
Two films can survive & take hit status same day specially in Three Biggest holidays of Bharatwarsh i.e Eid, Diwali & Christmas
Each can make 150 – 170 crores at box office
So Clash should happen in every Eid, Diwali & Christmas after PRDP solo
There is loss either side party of two films
Expecting like Khans, HRITHIK, AKSHAY & AJAY (already coming on Diwali 16,17) should release their films as well in Three Biggest Holidays Eid , Diwali & Christmas because there is Loss to both films
THUG vs DANGAL clash is going to happen in Christmas 2016
@ Aashish Thapar :
/* i simply cannot understand why shah rukh sir wants to clash and release dilwale on 18th december..if they come on 25th then they will get 3 open weeks */
I think there are two main reasons :
1. If BM releases before Dilwale and if it is accepted by audiences , then Dilwale might not get 4000 screens (which you are expecting) . It will get 3000-3400 screens then , which is not good .
2. Moreover , this time SRK is confident about his product Dilwale . If it comes on 25th it won’t be able to fully utilize the Christmas holidays (you know , mostly holidays begin as early as one week before Christmas) . So 18th is a better date . If Dilwale is liked by audiences , then we might see a record-breaking second weekend for sure .
I will watch both movies,clash does’nt matter.
Krishika Lulla is’nt wrong,everyone has a right to release their film whenever they want.
With 2 movies this christmas,audience will have options as to which one to watch.
And I am sure only industry will benefit as I think BM+Dilwale combined business will cross last xmas PK’s collections.
@ Ishan Gulati :
Rightly said .
@Flop kohli 02:01 : improve your performance first and throw the attitude and jealousy which you possess. Whatever Dhoni has achieved, is because of his hard work and talent, but you simply can’t bear his success and thus degraded your performance so that ibdia should lose. Shame on you, such a selfish creature.
So Mr. Moron, so far this is the list :
1. Aditya chopra
2. Karan Johar
3. Farah khan
4. Rohit Shetty
5. Deepika Padukone
And post Dilwale/Fan and Raees, will you enhance the list further ?
6. Vaani Kapoor
7. Farhan Akhtar
8. Rahul Dholakiya
9.Eid
???????
Get a life you loser.
@Aunt 02:14 pm : How many times you will reiterate the same stuff you oldie. I’m daam sure that you won’t even bother to match towards the theatre with the release of “Bhaaji pao” but you will buy pirated DVD from chor-bazaar of boriwali and watch at home.
Wooooooooooooowwwwwww !
Two Great Actors of Hindi Cinema HRITHIK ROSHAN and AMITABH BACHCHAN are coming together one again after LAKSHAY for @yrf next DHOOM=4 directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya

1st week- dilwale 110, BM 85 cr,
2nd week(Christmas)- dilwale 70 cr, BM 80 cr
lifetime- dilwale- 200cr

BM makers announced 18 Dec.
Ok.
Then Dilwale makers said they want to come on same date.
But big question is Why..?
Its not a holiday neither festival time.
Then why on 18th when you can easily release your film on 25th which is a national holiday..?
Aamir & Salman started releasing their films on Festivals & national holidays.
All their movies became blockbuster.
Then tisra Khan also released his films in festival & national holidays.
3 Diwali & 1 Eid & 1 X’mas release.
Out of all just 1 blockbuster.
Then in recent time Aamir & Salman started releasing their movies in Pre-Festival time.
Again all their films became blockbuster
So now tisra Khan want to release his film in Pre-Festival time..!
Please someone tell him instead of copying Aamir & Salman’s trades concentrate on making films.
Already released trailer & posters of all movies which are going to release next year.
Nothing from yet this year movie but blocked date which is announced by someone else.
And in interviews talks that blocking dates is not good..!
Hats of infront of such character & his great fans.
Now i will tell you how his fans will take palati.
Now thay will say..
SLB is making mistake
Dilwale will crush BM.
So who stopped you go & crush it.
But after release..
BM affected unless it would crossed bla bla bla…
Even read some comments above…thay are saying SOS was masala film & JTHJ was bad scripted film…thease are the same people who said JTHJ will crush SOS.
God bless such star & his fans.
BM is gonna thrash Dilwale this Christmas.
Bajirao Mastani 170 crore superhit
Dilwale 140 crore average/flop
bajirao will sure win
Eagerly waiting 4 bajirao….epicness never destroy…
If u release BM on TV people will watch itttttt between iiiiting
Dilwale storm comming
Don’t worry Mr.lulla, sarkar sarookia khan will definitely come to u during Nov , will fall on ur feet begging u to postpone ur movie , its up to u whether u want to postpone it or not as crapwale anyway will be the worst movie of this year :D
@x-pac zone at 1:48 p.m . Hahahaha if lulla wanted to commit an extreme form of suicide then he could have very well made a reality show with ur item queen na?? As a reality show with nautanki queen is a sure shot way to complete bankruptcy for any producer, sarookia’s irritating torturous overacting would just speed up the suicide process or else he could have watched Ra.1 just two times in a row within 6 hours or jthj 7 times in 2 days or hny 4 times within a day if ever he wanted to commit suicide within 2 days, look ur haklia could have provided so many options to lulla if ever he wanted to commit suicide but that’s not the case as BM would surely will be a flesh in the thorn for Mr.overacting ki dukaan and his retarded fans like u hahahaha till then jalte raho BM team ke uppar jalte raho Lol :D :D :D
Insecure haters n fans of srk r so jealous that they dont know what to comment as BM will cross the 200 crores mark in India just mark my words whether it releases with dilwale or not
BAjirao mastani is the best movie of the year n it will cross all boxoffice collections while dilwale will also do very well but BM will rock superbly in India n overseas
Bad time of Eros kicked start from welcome back followed by Hero n now 2015 end with BM
Bajirao Mastani 110-120 crore
Dilwale 180-190 crore. If clash
I just want dilwale to come on 18th December and bajirao mastani should come on 25th December.
Dilwale will collect 170 crore to 200 crore on its 1st week itself inshalllah .
then the rest it will take care .
if dilwale gets 1st week solo then 300+ crore will be on the cards !!!
@ aashish Thapar, whether ur srk fan or not but kindly stop saying 25th Dec.
U mean dilwale should come only for opening then the rest will be like hny
so what if you announced earlier….and who care …..this Christmas DILWALE all the way………..i cant wait yaar ?????
BM makers announced 18 Dec.

This Christmas:
Maratha warrior vs Maratha Mandir
Too much fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t understand the hate really. He’s right, imagine yourself in his place. They announced the release date earlier and no release date is reserved for anyone. If anybody wants to release his film on a particular date, he has every right to do so.
Masala entertainer Dilwale will obviously do more business than a historical drama in our “incredible” India. But, I like the guts of Bajirao Mastani’s producers. They are confident of their product and are ready to face an uphill battle.
If SRK fans are so assured of Dilwale being a blockbuster and Bajirao Mastani being a disaster, then why do they want Bajirao Mastani to be postponed? Insecurity, maybe?
krishika lulla u will regret your decision IN Shaa Allah
bdw slb should be the one who will regret more as he will be repeating the mistake twice
Name the bollywood actor who is in industry from 23 years and has just 2 ATBB in whole career??
