This Dussera, cinephiles are in for a treat as two big-ticket films are set to clash at the box office. Suriya’s much-anticipated film “Kanguva” is all set for a worldwide release on October 10, coinciding with the festive occasion. However, right on its heels is Alia Bhatt’s “Jigra,” slated to hit screens just a day later. This clash sets the stage for one of the biggest box office battles of the year.
Alia Bhatt’s Jigra vs Suriya’s Kanguva
The clash between Alia Bhatt’s “Jigra” and Suriya’s “Kanguva” is set to be a thrilling showdown at the box office this Dussera. Fans are eagerly anticipating these two films, each bringing its own star power and unique storyline. Alia Bhatt, known for her versatility, takes on a challenging role in “Jigra,” promising audiences a blend of drama and charisma. On the other hand, Suriya’s “Kanguva,” directed by Siva, brings the actor back in an action-packed avatar, ready to enthrall his fans worldwide.
Indian 2 vs Sarfira
After a series of delays, Kamal Haasan’s “Indian 2,” directed by S Shankar, is finally gearing up for release on July 12. The film, a sequel to the iconic 1996 hit “Indian,” marks Haasan’s return as Senapathy. It faces tough competition from Akshay Kumar’s “Sarfira,” a Bollywood remake of the Tamil film “Soorarai Pottru,” where Suriya starred originally but now produces. Both films promise high-octane drama and are expected to draw significant attention from fans.
Stree 2 vs Khel Khel Mein
Shraddha Kapoor returns with “Stree 2” on August 15, continuing the horror-comedy saga that began with the 2016 hit “Stree.” This sequel reunites much of the original cast and introduces Tamannaah Bhatia in an exciting cameo, promising a thrilling Independence Day for audiences. However, competing for viewership on the same day is Akshay Kumar’s “Khel Khel Mein,” featuring a star-studded ensemble cast including Taapsee Pannu and Fardeen Khan. This clash is sure to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
Devara vs They Call Him OG
Jr NTR’s “Devara: Part 1,” directed by Koratala Siva, was initially scheduled for an early April release but was later moved to September 27. The film, riding on the success of “RRR,” showcases Jr NTR in a dual role and has already generated buzz with its first single, “Fear Song.” Competing head-to-head is Pawan Kalyan’s “OG,” directed by Sujeeth, which faced delays due to the actor’s political commitments. Though rumors of further delays persist, fans eagerly await these two much-anticipated releases.
Pushpa 2: The Rule vs Chhava
One of the most talked-about films of the year, “Pushpa 2: The Rule,” starring Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, was initially slated for an Independence Day release but has now been pushed to December 6. The sequel to the National Award-winning “Pushpa” promises to continue its success story with high-octane action and gripping storytelling. Fans eagerly await this delayed but highly anticipated release.
2024 is shaping up to be a year of epic clashes at the box office, with big stars and captivating stories vying for audience attention. From Dussera to Independence Day and beyond, each clash brings its own flavor of excitement and anticipation. As fans eagerly await these releases, the stage is set for a thrilling year in cinema, where every Friday promises to be a battleground for success and acclaim.
