Prabhas Vs SRK Confirmed! Salaar To Clash With Dunki On Dec 22, Makers Share Breathtaking Poster – News18

It has finally been confirmed that Prabhas’ much-awaited movie will clash at the box office with Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki. On Friday, Hombale films announced that Salaar will hit theatres on December 22. The makers announced the same with a new poster of the film featuring Prabhas. In this poster, Prabhas can be seen flaunting his rugged look as he also holds a sword in his hand.

With Salaar releasing on December 22, it is now confirmed that the Prabhas’ movie will face competition at the box office with Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki.

Salaar was initially supposed to release on September 28 and was scheduled to clash at the box office with Vivek Agnihotri’s The Vaccine War. However, the film was later pushed to December this year because of its pending post-production work. Directed by Prashanth Neel, Salaar also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran, Shruti Haasan, and Meenakshi Chaudhary. The film is produced by Hombale Films, the team behind KGF and Kantara.

On the other hand, Dunki marks Shah Rukh’s third release of the year. The film is directed by Rajkumar Hirani and also stars Taapsee Pannu in the lead. Recently, SRK confirmed that Dunki is not getting pushed to next year and clarified that it is on track to release on Christmas.

“I think, Mashallah, God’s been very kind. We had Pathaan. God’s been even kinder with Jawan. I always tell we started with Republic Day (January 26). It’s an auspicious day. On Janmashtami, we released Jawan. On Christmas, we will bring Dunki for you. I prioritize national integration. And whenever my film releases, it has to be Eid. I’m working hard. I’m working harder than what I worked in last 29 years. And Inshallah, I will work hard. I get happy now when people watch movies and they derive happiness out of them,” he said during the success meet of Jawan.
