Well, it hasn’t been the first time in Indian cinema that two films have clashed at the box office owing to release dates. While in some rare cases, one of the makers reschedule their release, there are also times when the due response for either of them gets salvaged significantly.
Addressing the matter, Mr Bachchan director Harish Shankar shared his views on the clash. As per Gulte, the filmmaker expressed his deep respect for Puri Jagannadh and expressed that he would never wish to compare himself with the latter.
Clarifying how there is no ill will at work, Harish said, “Even if the clash happened, there is nothing like Puri Jagan garu and I are at loggerheads.”

He expressed, “Though Charmme garu has unfollowed me on Twitter which I didn’t check personally but came to know it through a meme, I hope that everyone will understand the situation.”
