Salaar Vs Dunki Advance Bookings: Prabhas-Starrer Or Shah Rukh Khan’s Film; Which Movie Will Lead Overseas?
December 14, 2023Box Office Showdown: Prabhas’ Salaar Takes Early Lead Over Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki Abroad
Two of India’s biggest stars, Prabhas and Shah Rukh Khan, are about to clash at the box office! Their movies, Salaar and Dunki, are releasing soon, and fans are buzzing with excitement. But who’s winning the early battle? Let’s dive into the advance booking numbers.
Prabhas’ Salaar Takes Charge Overseas:
Based on early numbers, Salaar seems to be pulling ahead in some key overseas markets. Trade analyst Girish Johar tweeted about this trend, revealing that Salaar has snagged more advance bookings than Dunki in the USA, UK, and Australia.
However, Shah Rukh Khan isn’t giving up without a fight. Dunki is holding its own in the Gulf countries, Europe, and other markets outside of the USA, UK, and Australia.
So, who’s truly in the lead?
It’s too early to say for sure. Advance booking numbers can fluctuate in the days leading up to release, and different regions sometimes tell different stories. We’ll need to wait and see how things play out once both movies hit the big screen on December 21st and 22nd, respectively.

About Salaar vs Dunki Clash:
In an interview with ETimes, Prashanth Neel broke his silence on ‘Salaar’ clashing with ‘Dunki’. He said, “Clash is not something you ideally want, be it with a newcomer or with the biggest star of Indian cinema. But it is a very unpleasant situation for anybody to move their date to somebody else’s date. We also wouldn’t want somebody to move to our date when we have announced it a year before. And we also did not want to do it. But that was a logistical decision that was taken only by the production.”
He added, “We are not fearful of the fact that another movie as big as that, the combination that it has. Rajkumari Hirani sir is one of my favourite directors. I am definitely sold on going and watching Dunki. So I do understand that that’s a very big movie that is coming out. But the biggest fear that we have which is always when making a movie is whether the audience is going to like it or not..”
