Salaar vs Dunki: Shah Rukh Khan’s film likely to be postponed to avoid clash with Rebel star Prabhas

After two back-to-back all-time blockbusters, Jawan and Pathaan, superstar Shah Rukh Khan is all set to end the year with another record-breaking movie Dunki. Directed by 3 Idiots and Munna Bhai MBBS fame director Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki is one of the most awaited movies of this year.

However, there were reports that the movie would clash with the Rebel star’s upcoming movie ‘Salaar’. Directed by KGF fame director Prashanth Neel, Salaar is another big movie of this year. With both the movies scheduled to release on December 22, fans were going to witness a box office clash between Prabhas and Shah Rukh Khan.

However, what now comes as good news for fans, Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki is likely to be postponed to avoid the clash. Well-known film critic and film trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan shared the good news on his X handle, formerly known as Twitter.

“Buzz: #SalaarVsDunki X #ShahRukhKhan’s #Dunki likely to get POSTPONED. #Prabhas’ #Salaar to get a SOLO record release,” he tweeted.

If reports are to be believed, Dunki might be postponed from the December 22 release due to delayed post-production works. However, there has been no official confirmation in this regard yet.

This is great news for Prabhas fans as his last two movies Adipurush and Saaho failed to recreate the magic of Baahubali at the box office. With Prashanth Neel’s Salaar, fans are hoping to see the vintage action star Prabhas back and enjoy the movie in theatres.

On the other hand, SRK is basking high on the success of both Jawan and Pathaan and without any doubt will likely go hat trick with Dunki.
