Singham Again vs Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3: Anees Bazmee puts an end to speculation, says “I’m thrilled for both”

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again are the most awaited movies in Bollywood at the moment. There has been much talk about the two biggest releases of this year clashing at the box office. The buzz was strong that the films might be postponed to avert a clash at the box office. However, there was no official confirmation from any of the filmmakers of their respective movies. Horror comedy film director Anees Bazmee has now put the records straight clearing the air around release dates of his film and Rohit Shetty’s directorial.

Gigantic firework is confirmed this Diwali as Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 both releases in theaters on the same day. The third installment of the Singham series and Bhool Bhulaiyaa are vying to lock horns in theaters on November 1. Anees Bazmee stepped up to put an end to all speculations. He clarified that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is very much on track and will be released on the scheduled date against Singham Again. 

Taking to Twitter, he made a statement which read, “Some media personnel are misinterpreting my statement. As a filmmaker with over 3 decades of experience, I focus on crafting compelling stories, not getting entangled in film release/business dynamics. I've seen many films succeed despite releasing on the same day. Bazmee further added, “Seems like my words were lost in translation! Let me rephrase: I'm thrilled for BOTH #Singham3 & #BhoolBhulaiya3! Two amazing films, two talented teams. Let's do it together.”

Earlier, Anees Bazmee was wrongly quoted for his comments while speaking to Midday when he said, “Why should I talk to him? It’s a business decision between producers, and I am just the director. Singham Again’s team is insisting on a Diwali release. Clashes are never a good idea. I know that we had announced Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’s release date a year in advance, but what can we do? I’ve always maintained that a good film doesn’t need a date to work. I’m the last person to get involved in box-office numbers and release dates. These are decisions and numbers calculated by producers and distributors.”

With this, it is confirmed that Diwali weekend will witness Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaaiyaa 3 clash. Singham Again is the third chapter of Ajay Devgn’s film series and another addition to Rohit Shetty’s cop universe. The upcoming chapter will star an ensemble cast making it more fascinating and delightful for the audience. 

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is an extension of a horror comedy film franchise after two 2 successful chapters. Kartik Aaryan taken over the OG Akshay Kumar to headline the series. The third chapter will also star Triptii Dimri and Vidya Balan.
