Clash Of Titans Again: This Time It's Shah Rukh Khan And Akshay!

Darpan News Desk IANS, 30 Mar, 2017 11:50 AM
  • Clash Of Titans Again: This Time It's Shah Rukh Khan And Akshay!
Recently we saw some big movies with with stars clashing against each other and we can say that it is not a wise decision.
 
On Republic Day 2017 we saw a clash of the titans at the box-office with Shah Rukh Khan's 'Raees' and Hrithik Roshan's 'Kaabil' both releasing on the same day.
 
Now, there's another set of big Bollywood films heading for a mighty clash on the Independence Day weekend. According to an update shared by film trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Akshay Kumar's 'Toilet: Ek Prem Katha' will collide with Imtiaz Ali's Shah Rukh Khan-Anushka Sharma starrer at the box-office. The two films will hit cinemas on August 11, 2017. 
 
Earlier, Akshay Kumar's 'Crack' was scheduled for an Independence Day release and 'Toilet: Ek Prem Katha' was to hit the screens on June 2, 2017. Due to production delays, 'Crack' will not be releasing this year, and Shah Rukh's film could have availed a solo release. The change in the release date of Akshay's film has now slotted the two superstars against each other at the box-office. 
 
Incidentally, last year's Independence Day weekend had also seen a big clash, between Akshay's 'Rustom' and Hrithik's 'Mohenjo Daro'.
