Two
or more films releasing on the same day is a common sight in Bollywood.
However, what if those two or more movies releasing on the same day have the
same actor or actress as well? It would surely pose as a major problem for the
respective actors because promoting both the films together might not be a
great idea. It is not only an awkward situation for the actors, but also for
the makers, if both the projects are big budget films with a strong star cast. A
clash of release dates of such two films needs to be solved. Similarly, two of
the many big movies of this year, Sajid Nadiadwala’s Phantom and Fox Star Studios’ Bang Bang are slated to hit the
theatres on the same day, which is 2nd October. Coincidentally, both
the movies have actress Katrina Kaif in the main lead. While Katrina will be
seen playing a photojournalist opposite actor Saif Ali Khan in Phantom, she
will play actor Hrithik Roshan’s love interest in Bang Bang.
Also,
the actress herself does not want her two films to clash at the box office.
This can prove dangerous for both her ventures. Therefore, talking about their
release issues at an event, Katrina said, “It is unlikely that the films will hit
the screen on the same day.” So, does that mean that Katrina Kaif will step in
to resolve release issues between Sajid
Nadiadwala’s ‘Phantom’ and Fox Star Studios’ ‘Bang Bang’? The leading lady
of the two movies might ask either of the makers to postpone the released date.
Giving his views over the same issue, Kabir Khan, who is directing 'Phantom',
said, “We are releasing our film on October 2. It is going to be a five day
weekend, so there is enough space for the two films to co-exist.”
So,
let us wait and watch, whether Bang Bang lets Sajid Nadiadwala’s Phantom enjoy an individual release, while
Katrina tries to handle the matter.
