Every year as a multitude of movies hit the big screens, it has become a commonplace to witness box office clashes. And, the war gets intensified when two biggies lock horns. Now, as filmmaker Karan Johar took to his social media page and announced that the first part of Brahmastra will be releasing in Christmas 2019, the first thought that instantly struck us was Salman Khan’s Kick 2 is also releasing during the Xmas festivities.
We had even run
a story about confirmation from the makers around the movie’s release date. Now, as Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt-starrer Brahmastra is all set to fight it out with Kick 2, it will provide for an interesting battle between Katrina Kaif’s exes, Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor. Let us tell you that this ain’t the first time that the superstars are clashing at the box office.
This year, we saw Race 3 and Sanju releasing in the same month, by a gap of two weeks. While, Salman Khan’s Race 3 underperformed to a great extent, Ranbir Kapoor got a new lease of life in the movies with the stupendous success of Sanju. Also, we would like to remind you that a decade ago, Ranbir Kapoor's Bachna Ae Haseeno and Salman Khan's God Tussi Great Ho, had a face-off. We all know it pretty well that Ranbir's movie did better whereas the Salman-starrer failed miserably.
Now, as they are set to clash at the box office again next year, we wonder if either of them will choose to bow out. There are high chances of Salman Khan’s project taking a backseat because it’s yet to go on the floors, whereas Ranbir and Alia-starrer is halfway through, already. Whatever be the case, we are awaiting for clash of the titans.
