Clash Between HERO And WELCOME BACK Averted
| |||
Wednesday, 15th July 2015, 3:52 PM IST Salman Khan’s production venture ‘Hero’ was slated to hit the screens on 4th Sept and was about to clash with John Abraham starrer ‘Welcome Back’. But now, the clash won’t take place as ‘Hero’ has been postponed by a week and will be releasing on 11th Sept. On 11th Sept, ‘Kya Kool Hain Hum 3’ and ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2’ were slated to clash, but now both the films have been shifted to other dates and ‘Hero’ will be enjoying solo release. A trade insider said, "It was many months ago when both ‘Kya Kool Hain Hum 3’ and ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2’ were eyeing the same release date. It would have been an interesting clash since both films are sequels to successful comic affairs. Both installments of ‘Kya Kool...’ franchise have been hits so far. On the other hand ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama’ was an average runner in theaters but has managed a semi-cult status amongst youth over the years. Their coming together would have been quite exciting." Producer of ‘PKP2’, confirmed the news and said, "Yes, we are in fact leaving for Krabi to shoot one song for the film. We are coming in September but it won't be on 18th." When it comes to Tusshar Kapoor and Aftab Shivdasani starrer ‘Kya Kool Hain Hum’, there is no news about the release date. Sources confirm that it won’t be releasing in September. A source said, "All of this sets the stage for ‘Hero’ to make merry. All this while there were talks of a clash between ‘Welcome Back’ (another sequel) and ‘Hero’ (a remake) on September 4. Both have Eros as the producers. Now that Eros has already announced the arrival of Anil Kapoor, John Abraham and Nana Patekar starrer, Hero could well benefit from arriving on the weekend ahead, considering it has been made free due with ‘Kya Kool...’ and ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2’ opting out. Why to get into a clash when you can have a week entirely for yourself?"
