Salman Khan might have hugged Shahrukh Khan, but it seems that the
arch-rivals are not ready to give away the cold war and the box
office.
SRK might have claimed that he doesn't keep a track of other stars,
but the superstar blocked Eid for his film Chennai Express as Salman's
Mental couldn't hit the theatres this Eid.
Salman's action drama Wanted directed by Prabhudheva which released on
Eid became the biggest hit of 2009. In 2010, the actor's blockbuster
Dabangg hit the
theatre during Eid, while his Bodyguard too served a good Eid treat
for his fans in
2011. In 2012, it was Kabir Khan's Ek Tha Tiger which showcased an
amazing chemistry between Salman and Katrina and created history
during Eid. It's after three years that SRK got a chance to release
his film during Eid and the flick became the fastest entry to 100
crore club.
SRK's Chennai Express has crossed 181 cr at the box office and also
became the highest week 1 (7 day week) surpassing EK Th Tiger's 140 cr
from 9 days.
It seems that the success of SRK's Chennai Express has made the
Dabangg Khan take some conscious steps and the actor, who is known for
his spontaneous career decisions, is planning 2014 very consciously.
People from different fields and celebs from glam world gathered at
SRK's Mannat for Iftar Party soon after the release of Chennai
Express. However, one of the most expected stars on the venue, Salman
Khan gave a miss to the event.
Now, according to reports, Salman has blocked all major dates in 2014
to release his films. The actor's one of the most awaited films Kick
is all set to hit the theatres during Eid, his next with Prabhudheva
might grab a Christmas or Diwali opening and Sohail Khan's Mental on
Republic Day.
We don't know about the box office, but next year undoubtedly seems to
be a joy ride for all Salman Khan fans.
