Box office clash of Bollywood movies is nothing new. Especially around the various holiday festivals in India, multiple movies are often released on the same day. It became regular in Bollywood in 2022 after Corona. Two big-budget movies were released on August 11 last year. Amir Khan starrer ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ and Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Raksha Bandhan’ released ahead of Independence Day 2022. It is known that this year’s Independence Day will see a four-way clash of Bollywood movies at the box office.
It was already known that two stars of two generations of Bollywood are facing each other at the box office in August. Because Ranbir Kapoor starrer ‘Animal’ and Sunny Deol starrer ‘Gadar 2: The Katha Continues’ movies are going to release on August 11 this year. Now it is known that two more Bollywood movies are going to be released after three days. With the release of four movies in three days, the audience is going to see a four-way clash of Bollywood movies at the box office on Independence Day.

According to reports published in Bollywood-based media, the movies ‘Tarikh’ and ‘The Vaccine War’ are going to release on August 15. Among them, John Abraham played the lead role in the movie ‘Tarikh’. After the historic success of the movie ‘Pathaan’, the audience’s interest in John Abraham’s movies has increased manifold. On the other hand, the film ‘The Vaccine War’ has been directed by Bollywood’s popular director Vivek Agnihotri. This director’s ‘The Kashmir Files’ is one of the most commercially successful films of the last year.

Despite the Independence Day holiday, the weekend is shaping up to be a tough time for visitors. Every movie mentioned has the potential to be well-received by the audience. The release of the four films discussed at the same time has already created a lot of buzz in Bollywood. However, it is also known that there is a discussion among the makers about not releasing the movies at the same time. If the ongoing talks are not successful, the audience will see a four-way clash of Bollywood movies at the box office on Independence Day.

A source said, ‘Gadar 2: The Katha Continues is one of the perfect movies for the Independence Day weekend. But the makers of Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal are not at all ready to push back the release from August 13. Among them, John Abraham starrer Tarikh and Vivek Agnihotri directorial The Vaccine War are slated to release on August 15. It’s going to be a long weekend due to the Independence Day holiday. Let’s see what happens in the end!’
Meanwhile, apart from Ranbir Kapoor and Sunny Deol’s box office battle, the fight is going to be between the two brothers. Sunny Deol’s younger brother Bobby Deol played a lead role in the movie ‘Animal’. However, Bollywood trade experts consider the timing of Independence Day as sufficient for the release of two movies. Earlier the movie ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha’ was also released along with the movie ‘Lagaan’ starring Aamir Khan. At that time both movies managed to achieve success at the box office.
Note that the movie ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha’ directed by Anil Sharma was released in 2001. Now the second part of the movie ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha Continues’ is directed and produced by Anil Sharma. In the second part, the makers are going to recreate the two popular songs of the first part of the movie ‘Main Nikla Gaddi Leke’ and ‘Ud ja kale kaanwa’. Time will tell if the ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha’ vs ‘Lagaan’ incident repeats itself.
