The upcoming release of 'Salaar' has sparked discussions about its potential competition with other films, particularly in the South indian market. Despite expectations that Shahrukh Khan's impact on Prabhas' market in hindi would be significant, 'Salaar' seems to present a strong challenge, not just in the South but across India. The movie is set to release pan india on december 21.
Interestingly, on the same day, the mollywood film 'Nero,' featuring the renowned actor Mohan Lal, is also scheduled for release. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the director behind hits like 'Drishyam' and 'Scene,' 'Nero' has already generated considerable excitement. The combination of Mohan Lal's star power and the director's track record could pose a competition to 'Salaar' in Kerala.
Moreover, in Bollywood, 'Dunki' is set to release around the same time, adding another layer to the competition. Both films will be released within a day's gap, making competition inevitable. The outcome may hinge on the initial reception and word-of-mouth, as positive reviews could give one film an advantage over the other. Currently, there's a sense of anticipation, with fans and analysts closely watching how these films perform, especially with the notable absence of direct promotional statements from the respective film stars.
