Speculation arises from the tremendous success Shah Rukh Khan has enjoyed this year, with hits like Jawan, Pathaan, and now Dunki. It appears that the makers of Saalar saw an opportunity for both films to thrive by avoiding a head-to-head battle at the box office. Speaking of Rajkumar Hirani's directorial at an event, SRK said, "People should come to the theatres and enjoy themselves with somebody else's family too... Where you laugh and cry together. With Dunki too, I hope you do the same."
Prabhas' admirers are eagerly anticipating his return to the spotlight after the monumental success of Baahubali. Following Rajamouli's directorial masterpiece, Prabhas has faced a string of disappointments, leaving all hopes pinned on Saalar. The actor is poised for a dynamic year in 2014, with the promise of not one, but two colossal releases: Saalar and Kalki 2898 AD.
