Shah Rukh Khan's Raees and Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil are all set to release tomorrow, making it one of the biggest box office clashes of the year. Whenever two big films like Raees and Kaabil lock horns at the box office, it is never a good thing for the industry! Why? Coz it affects the total collection of both the films. Neither of the films can achieve their potential and this hampers the overall profits too. The screens and the audiences are divide too. This is not good for an industry like Bollywood and when we spoke to the producer of Kaabil, Rakesh Roshan, he could not agree more.
Talking to us EXCLUSIVELY, Rakesh Roshan mentioned, "Actually it is not right. Because if you see Hollywood also, the way they strategise, no two big films release together if you go back 10 years and see. You will never see Superman and Batman releasing together. And we have only 4-5 actors over here who are ruling the industry. There are so many weeks in the entire year, so why clash? By clashing you are eating into each other's business," said the filmmaker. ALSO READ - 5 reasons why you cannot miss Hrithik Roshan and Yami Gautam's Kaabil
While talking about the affect it will have on both the films, Roshan Sr said, "Even a blind man can see that. I have not encroached into anybody's date. It is for them to take a decision. They must have something good up their sleeves so they are confident. Everybody is confident about their films, that is fine. But how much are you confident about your film? I think this eating into each other's business is not right. It is going to harm both of us."
But interestingly something about this clash has amused the filmmaker a lot. He says, "But I am happy about one thing. We both together will do Rs. 300 crore. Aamir and Salman's single films have earned Rs. 300 crore. Here two films together will earn Rs. 300 crore. But then both the films have the potential to individually earn Rs. 300 crore if they were not clashing with each other."
