Ajay opened up about the box office clash with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and admitted that he wanted to avoid the clash but could not for some reason.
In an interview with ANI, Ajay Devgn said “We all tried to avoid that clash on Diwali but it didn’t happen. I never want any film to clash at the box office because the industry somehow suffers from that. Given the theme of ‘Singham Again’, we couldn’t have given up on this date for release. But despite the clash, both the films are doing well so it is all good.”
In the same interview, Rohit Shetty said “I am very happy that people are liking this film. The film is running for quite long now. A good revenue is being generated for the theatres. People are going to watch this film…We tried to avoid the clash (with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3) but the only issue was that we had the theme of Diwali otherwise we could have released the film anytime. After a week, both the films created a revenue of over Rs 300 crores which is quite rare.”
Singham Again also stars Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor and Jackie Shroff in key roles. The movie had a box office collection of Rs 192.5 crore after 9 days of release.
