Simmba And Zero Clash Averted! Here’s Why
Updated : September 24, 2018 01:04 PM IST
The Anand L.Rai directed, Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero and Rohit Shetty directed Simmba are two big releases this year. Simmba has Rohit Shetty and Karan Johar backing it, Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero has been backed by Anand L. Rai! Unfortunately for the makers and fortunately for us viewers, both the movies were to release on 24th December, Christmas Eve this year but the release dates have been changed and now Desimartini.com reveals to you who changed the release dates and for what reason.
Rohit Shetty doesn’t think that there is any competition at all. In other words, he realises it is Shah Rukh Khan he is up and against and competition against the Badshah himself will crush him. During a press conference, revealed why the dates of Simmba and Zero got changed. Quipped Rohit, “I think one week is enough and there is no competition. Earlier we were planning to come on the same day, but then we went into a discussion. We decided not to come together because that would affect numbers. It was a mutual decision. If the film does well in the first week, it will go on."
Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero and Ranveer Singh’s Simmba are big films. This change of dates for their release in order to get rid of a clash between the movies will definitely work in the favour of both the movies but it will strip off the audience to choose films which would have been possible if the two movies would be releasing together! Anyway, it was a tactical and sensible move by Rohit Shetty.
