Not just Yash's Toxic, nearly 10 movies almost clashed with Dhurandhar 2 in theatres at one point (including Love & War as well as Dhamaal 4)

Ranveer Singh-Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar 2 is nearing its theatrical release. The film is scheduled to be out on March 19, with its limited early premiere on Wednesday, March 18. The movie is a solo Hindi release, with Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla releasing directly almost a month later on April 10. Even Salman Khan-starring Battle of Galwan, previously releasing in April, has now shifted its date to August.

Yash’s Toxic, once facing a direct clash with Dhurandhar 2, also had to be postponed on June 4. The makers took the decision because of the ongoing crisis in Dubai. Since Yash enjoys a massive fandom in Dubai, they thought it was best for the movie to be postponed to a new date. On the other hand, Dhurandhar 2 was anyway facing a ban in Gulf countries, so the movie is releasing per schedule – on March 19. However, apart from Toxic, there were other movies which almost faced a Box Office clash with Dhurandhar 2. Here’s a few of them…
