Get ready for the biggest Box Office clash of 2017 as Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees and Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil start their advance booking.
Just 4 days are left for what could be the biggest Box Office clash in the history of Indian cinema. Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees and Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil are all set to lock horns on 25th Jan 2017. Both movies are now set for a full-fledged release on Wednesday as the makers of Kaabil have decided to go for morning release like Raees. (Read: Raees Vs Kaabil: Detailed Analysis)
The advance booking for both movies has already started in prime centres like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Kolkata etc. Usually, advance booking of a movie begins three to five days prior but it seems Hrithik and SRK want to take initial advantage with big advance bookings. Both actors look quite confident and happy as they tweeted about advance booking.
SRK tweeted:

Hrithik Roshan retweeted the tweet from Kaabil’s Twitter handle:
The wait is now over! Pre-book your tickets & watch Kaabil at a theatre near you.https://t.co/1nN2VeAfQ4 pic.twitter.com/9aifFdDnKs

Since Raees and Kaabil are releasing on a normal weekday(Wednesday), we can’t expect a huge opening from them. Both movies are expected to witness good growth from the evening shows as there is national holiday (Republic Day) next day. It would be interesting to see, which movie will get a better opening at the Box Office. As of now, Raees seems to have an advantage over Kaabil. The picture will become more clear in next couple of days. (Poll: Raees Vs Kaabil Trailer)
