Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai to have a clash on Eid 2018!

We all know megastar Salman Khan releases his films mostly around the festival of Eid and the same is going to happen on Eid 2018.

Remo D’Souza’s ‘Race 3’ starring Salman Khan is scheduled to release on Eid next year. But surprisingly, the film will not have a solo release as another much-awaited film ‘Fanney Khan’ is also arriving on the same date. Interestingly, Fanney Khan stars Salman Khan’s ex-flame Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the lead role. Seasoned actor Anil Kapoor is also playing a principal role in the movie. Now, what makes this clash even more interesting is the fact that Anil is, reportedly, also a part of Race 3. The actor has played pivotal roles in the previous two installments of the film and he is expected to make an appearance in the third part as well. Come Eid 2018 and Anil will clash with his own film at the box office.

In a statement to a leading daily, the makers of ‘Fanney Khan’ have said, “We have locked the release date of Fanney Khan on Eid 2018 (June 15). We decided on Eid because the lead character Fanney Khan, played by Anil Kapoor, is a Muslim character and there’s no better day than Eid (to release it).”

A source told a leading daily, “It will be an exciting clash since Aishwarya and Salman’s relationship continues to hold the audience’s attention, even years after it went kaput. While Salman boasts of tremendous box-office pull, Ash and Anil too have a huge fan following and will draw the audience to the theatres.”

The source further added, “Arjun N Kapoor, Prernaa Arora, Bhushan Kumar and Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra met Aishwarya and Anil, who were happy to have a festival release. The team is aware of Race 3 also releasing on Eid, but they are confident of their film.”
