Close on the heels of reports that Shah Rukh Khan’sDilwale may be clashing with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’sBajirao Mastani this Christmas, comes the news of imminent face-off between the former's next, Raees, with Salman's Sultan next year on Eid.
A source close to the development -- which could spell disaster at the box office -- believes Yashraj Films is responsible for this unnecessary clash.
“What Aditya Chopra has done is very unethical. Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, the producers of Raees, announced Eid as the release date for their film three months ago.
“There was no Eid release lined up for Salman in 2016. Ritesh had repeatedly made sure to verify that.
“He had even reached out to Yashraj Films about the possibility of Sultan being released for Eid in 2016 and had been assured there was nothing of that sort in the offing,” the source says.
