The Christmas weekend will witness a colossal showdown between two megastars. Prabhas, the darling of the masses, returns with “Salaar Part 1: Ceasefire,” directed by K.G.F’s hitmaker Prashanth Neel. On the other side, the king of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, leads the charge with “Dunki,” directed by the cinematic genius Rajkumar Hirani.

2. Mission Raniganj vs. Thank You For Coming:

Akshay Kumar’s “Mission Raniganj,” a tribute to the late Jaswant Singh Gill, the hero of India’s first successful coal mine rescue mission, goes head-to-head with Bhumi Pednekar’s multi-starrer chick flick, “Thank You For Coming.” The clash promises diverse cinematic experiences for the audience.

4. Sam Bahadur vs. Animal (December 1, 2023):

Ranbir Kapoor’s “Animal,” directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, and Vicky Kaushal-starrer “Sam Bahadur,” a biopic of Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw directed by Meghna Gulzar, are set to release on the same day. It’s a clash of biopics, with audiences anticipating outstanding performances from these talented actors.

5. Aamir Khan’s Next vs. Welcome To The Jungle (Christmas ’24):

Aamir Khan’s return to the big screen after a hiatus coincides with the release of “Welcome To The Jungle,” the third instalment of the popular franchise.
