Many fans also said that the clash of the two films will definitely affect the box office earnings, while both films are special for their respective audiences.
Tremendous buzz for 'Kantara Chapter 1'
Rishab Shetty's 'Kantara Chapter 1' has already become one of the most awaited films, not only in the South industry but also in the Hindi belt. This film is a prequel and will showcase a deep influence of Indian folklore, culture, and faith. The first film not only earned blockbuster at the box office, but also brought a National Award for Rishab Shetty. This time, the makers are releasing it on a large scale in many languages, which is expected to make its collection and reach even wider.
Varun-Janhvi's 'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari' a blend of Family Drama and Romance
'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari', starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, is a lighthearted family drama and romantic comedy, which is being promoted on a large scale. The story of the film revolves around a girl from a traditional family and a boy with modern thinking. This film targets the young generation, family audience, and urban viewers. There is a good amount of enthusiasm among the audience for this film as well, but releasing it against a franchise like 'Kantara' is considered a box office risk.
Not only this, the film 'Ek Deewane Ki Deewangi' starring Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa, may also release on the same day. In addition, there are reports that Akshay Kumar starrer much-awaited 'Jolly LLB 3' might also release on October 2, although its release date has not been officially announced.
