Poor ‘Raees’ has been struggling a lot to get a good release date! Yes, the makers are constantly changing the release date of the movie and postponing it so that there is no clash with any biggie.
Remember, earlier we had reported about SRK speaking to Rakesh Roshan about changing the release date of ‘Kaabil’ since both movies were going to clash with each other on the 26th of January 2017? That time, SRK had left a tweet, which gave everyone a hint that Rakesh Roshan has agreed to compromise! But wait, this isn’t true.
As per latest reports, it is said that the makers of ‘Kaabil’ aren’t ready to compromise and they have stuck to the same release date i.e. 26th of January 2017; BAD NEWS for SRK once again.
Now, since Shah Rukh Khan has no option left, he has to compromise yet again! Yeah you heard it right; once more the release date of ‘Raees’ would be postponed it seems. How would King Khan take a risk once again after his 2 movies ‘Dilwale’ and ‘FAN’ failed miserably.
Considering the poor performance of these 2 movies, SRK is in no mood of taking any sort of risks. There are reports about SRK asking Ritesh Sidhwani to shift the ‘Raees’ from the 26th January 2017 slot. Already SRK has avoided clash with other movies many a times, let us have a look!
Sultan V/s Raees (8th July 2016, Eid Release)
Dishoom V/s Raees (29th July 2016)
Sivaay V/s Raees (28th October 2016, Diwali Release)
Dangal V/s Raees (23rd December 2016, Christmas Release)
Now, let us see whether once again ‘Raees’ avoids clash with ‘Kaabil’ or not. If they are released together,SRK has the risk of being beaten by the Hrithik Roshan starrer, because when his ‘Dilwale’ was released with ‘Bajirao Mastani’, the collections of the former were very low; have a look..
Dilwale collections in India – 140 crores!
Bajirao Mastani collections in India- 172 crores!
Don’t know when exactly ‘Raees’ would be released! What do you think guys? Do let us know your views in our comments section below!
