After almost a gap of 5 years, Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in Rohit Shetty's romantic comedy film Dilwale with Kajol. The first released song, "Gerua" has already surpassed 10 million views on YouTube and fans are consistently waiting for the film because of the action, romance and drama it promises. SRK previously worked with Shetty in 2013 romantic action film, Chennai Express.

"Of course, the audience will get divided. I believe not just in my film, but in films and I respect each and every film. I think it is kind of regrettable, but you know we make around 200 films a year and there are just 52 to 56 Fridays, so films will come together on the exact day, but I think there is enough business to be done on that weekend for two films to come out and do well. So, hopefully, both the movies will do well," SRK said.

On the other hand, Ranveer Singh previously worked with filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali for the film adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Film titled, Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela made 30 million dollars and was also significantly acclaimed film. The duo of Bansali and Ranveer Singh proved quite successful in the past and with Bajirao Mastani, the team is expecting to recreate the magic once again.
This won't be the first time SRK and Bhansali have clashed at the box-office. In 2007, SRK's megastarer movie, Om Shanti Om was released on the exact date as Bhansali's Saawariya.


Both Dilwale and Bajirao Mastani has an incredible cast and both the directors has their own targeted audience. Who will win the box-office clash is still a secret but one thing is clear, both of the films are definitely going to win some hearts.
