Akshay Kumar's Sooryavanshi And Laxmmi Bomb May Clash On Diwali!

The theaters might have been closed but it seems that the trend of clashing big movies will continue, especially in the festive season. Usually, the clash used to happen between big stars' movies but this year, an interesting coincidence has been made.

Akshay Kumar, who used to do films in the fewest days, his two upcoming films may clash on Diwali this year that are Sooryavanshi and Laxmmi Bomb. While Rohit Shetty's cop drama "Sooryavanshi" will release in theaters, as announced by the Reliance Entertainment, during this time, "Laxmmi Bomb" will release on the OTT platform, Disney+Hotstar.



However, according to trade pundits, one of the biggest reasons for this big clash is the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League which will be telecasted on Disney+Hotstar along with Star Sports from 19 September to 10 November. Experts believe that releasing movies on OTT during the IPL time will prove to be a bad decision as people will prefer to watch the tournament instead of films.

Disney+Hotstar may also face another clash apart from Sooryavanshi. According to reports, Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan starrer Coolie No 1 is set to release on Amazon Prime Video on Diwali as makers don't want let this opportunity to go. This comedy movie is a remake of the 1995 film of the same name starring Govinda and Karishma Kapoor in the lead role.

It has been almost 6 months since the cinema halls are closed due to the covid-19 pandemic and the nationwide lockdown. With things started to opening up, the makers of Sooryavanshi are waiting for the theaters to open. The making of Sooryavanshi is around INR 150 crores, hence, trade pundits believe that it is very important for this movie to release in the theaters only, or else, it will be difficult to make up the cost.
