As both films prepare to hit theaters in September, interest in Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan and Prabhas’ Salaar is at an all-time high. Fans are already arguing over which superstar will win the competition in ferocious discussions on social media. Jawan and Salaar have emerged as two of the most eagerly anticipated Indian films of 2023 thanks to their enormous star power and highly anticipated projects.
Shah Rukh Khan is prepared to dominate the box office once more with Jawan following the success of his spy thriller Pathaan. With its star-studded ensemble that includes Nayantara, Vijay Sethupathi, Deepika Padukone, and Sanaya Malhotra, the recently released high-intensity Jawan Prevue has sparked a national uproar. It has captivated spectators with its bald appearance, action-packed scenes, and balding look. Atlee’s Jawan, which will be released in several languages on September 7, will heighten anticipation among viewers.
Prabhas, however, is placing his faith in Salaar following a string of lackluster box office results. With Salaar, filmmaker Prashanth Neel is predicted to produce another suspenseful thriller riding high on the KGF series’ thunderous popularity. The release date of the movie, which is set for September 28, will cause these two much anticipated movies to clash.
The conflict between Jawan and Salaar has spread beyond the big screen and onto social media platforms, where fans are fervently defending their favorite actors and participating in comparisons and discussions. The rivalry between Shah Rukh Khan and Prabhas supporters grows as the release dates approach.
By securing an astounding Rs 250 crore from its rights, Jawan has already generated noise in the corporate world. The movie’s selling and music rights have been acquired by T-Series, and producers are reportedly asking for a sizable sum of Rs 250 crore from Netflix for the digital rights. The production company behind Salaar, Hombale Productions, is charging Rs 200 crore for the Telugu version’s distribution rights, with an eye toward a big pre-release transaction of Rs 400 crore.
The level of interest seen on websites like BookMyShow as the box office journey gets underway is a barometer for the buzz around the movies. Interestingly, Salaar today outpaces Jawan in terms of user interest by a wide margin. On BookMyShow, Salaar has 189.3K likes, while Jawan has 112.7K interests, demonstrating the huge buzz and excitement surrounding Prabhas’ action-packed project.
Jawan Prevue, on the other hand, was far from Salaar Teaser. Jawan is highly anticipated, but it couldn’t beat Salaar: Cease Fire’s day one YouTube record.
Both Jawan and Salaar have the potential to shatter current box office records in both India and international markets. The clash between Shah Rukh Khan and Prabhas at the box office promises to be an exciting struggle, putting two cinematic powerhouses against one another as fans eagerly await the release of these mega-blockbusters.
Shah Rukh Khan is trailing Prabhas in the BMS interest ratings for Jawan vs. Salaar by a significant margin of more than 80K!
Following the chaos his comeback movie, Pathaan, caused at the box office, Shah Rukh Khan is poised to take over. The actor is now prepared for his next September release, Jawan. Another blockbuster will be released in the same month, Prabhas’ Salaar. See who is leading the field in BookMyShow’s (BMS) favor!
Although both blockbusters are coming out in September, there is enough time between them to prevent box office competition. But, there is a social media spat going on between Shah Rukh Khan and Prabhas fans who are comparing the two big-screen actors.
Today, BookMyShow interest is regarded as a method to gauge the film’s hype before the box office journey starts. It’s interesting to see that Jawan and Salaar both have 100K or more in BMS holdings. But, when compared, the Prabhas-starring movie outperforms the impending Shah Rukh Khan movie by a significant margin.
As of right now, Salaar is in the lead with 187.1K user likes, while 103.6K people have indicated interest in Jawan.
Jawan, directed by Atlee, also features Vijay Sethupathi and Nayanthara in pivotal roles. The movie, which will be available in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, will debut on September 7th. Salaar, on the other hand, is a Prashanth Neel film that also has Prithviraj Sukumaran and Shruti Haasan in pivotal roles. The date of release is September 28, 2023.
