Bollywood films releasing during major holiday weekends in 2021

By Murtuza Iqbal

Every year, many Bollywood films hit the big screens, and superstars try to release their films during holiday weekends so they can get a good opening which can ensure a good box office collection.


In 2020, we didn't get to see many films on the big screen because of the lockdown, but now, filmmakers and superstars are ready to release their films on the silver screen during festivals and major holiday weekends this year.

Sooryavanshi / 83

Akshay Kumar starrer Sooryavanshi and Ranveer Singh starrer 83, both the movies are backed by Reliance Entertainment, and the makers have stated that they are planning to release one of their movies on Holi this year. So, let’s wait and watch whether it will be Sooryavanshi or 83.

Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai

After much speculation, finally, a few days ago, Salman Khan announced that his movie Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai will hit the big screens on Eid 2021. Radhe was slated to release on Eid 2020, but now, Salman will come to take his Eidi this year.

Satyameva Jayate 2

Salman Khan’s Radhe won’t be the only film releasing on Eid this year. John Abraham and Divya Khosla Kumar starrer Satyameva Jayate 2 is also slated to hit the big screens on Eid 2021. So, it will be Salman vs John at the box office.

Dhaakad

Kangana Ranaut starrer Dhaakad was slated to release on Diwali 2020, but now, it will hit the big screens during the Gandhi Jayanti weekend (1st October 2021). The first look of the film has already created a good pre-release buzz.

Maidaan

Ajay Devgn starrer Maidaan is slated to release on Dussehra 2021. Directed by Amit Ravindernath Sharma, the movie is produced by Zee Studios and Boney Kapoor, and also stars Priyamani in the lead role.

Jersey

Just a few days ago, Shahid Kapoor announced that his film Jersey will hit the big screens on Diwali this year. The movie also stars Mrunal Thakur and it is a remake of Telugu movie Jersey.

Raksha Bandhan

On Diwali 2021, even Akshay Kumar starrer Raksha Bandhan is slated to release. But, the Aanand L Rai directorial is yet to go on the floors, so let’s see if the movie will make it to the theatres as per the schedule.

Apne 2

Diwali 2021 is surely quite crowded. Apart from Jersey and Raksha Bandhan, even Apne 2 is slated to hit the big screens on Diwali this year. The movie stars four generations of the Deols, Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, and Karan Deol.

Laal Singh Chaddha

While many filmmakers have decided the release date of their films this year, Aamir Khan had decided to release Laal Singh Chaddha on Christmas 2021 last year itself. The movie, which also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, was slated to release on Christmas 2020, but the makers postponed it by a year.

Mariah Carey to headline Brighton Pride 2025: Iconic comeback set to break records

This summer, music legend Mariah Carey is set to light up the stage at Brighton Pride, marking her first UK performance since her 2019 Royal Albert Hall shows. Scheduled for August 2, 2025, at Preston Park, Carey’s highly anticipated appearance follows the cancellation of the 2020 event due to COVID-19. Known for her chart-topping hits like "Fantasy" and "Always Be My Baby," her performance is expected to draw massive crowds. Tickets go on sale February 20, and demand is expected to be high.

Paul Kemp, Brighton Pride’s Managing Director, shared his excitement, recalling the disappointment of 2020. “We’re thrilled to finally welcome Mariah this year,” Kemp said. “Pride is a celebration of love, diversity, and unity, and having a global icon like her headline makes this year’s event even more special.”

Are Kanye West and Bianca Censori breaking up after the viral Grammys stunt?

Kanye West, now legally known as Ye, and his wife, Bianca Censori, are once again at the centre of divorce rumours, this time following a series of controversies surrounding Ye. Reports suggest that the couple’s relationship has been strained due to Ye’s recent actions, including allegations of antisemitism and the backlash from selling swastika-themed merchandise.

Sources claim that Censori, 30, reached a breaking point, unwilling to be associated with Ye’s controversies any longer. The tension reportedly escalated after Censori’s near-nude appearance at the 2025 Grammy Awards, which drew widespread criticism. While Ye defended her bold outfit, calling her “smart, talented, brave, and hot,” the incident allegedly deepened the rift between them.

'Chhaava's' mixed twitter reactions: Vicky Kaushal shines, but does the film deliver?

Vicky Kaushal’s latest period drama, Chhaava, has sparked mixed reactions from audiences following its theatrical release. While Kaushal’s portrayal of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj has been widely praised, opinions on the overall execution of the film remain divided.

Social media has been flooded with reactions, with many hailing Kaushal’s intense performance and Akshaye Khanna’s chilling presence as Aurangzeb. One viewer called Kaushal “fire,” while another remarked that Khanna’s performance would “give you goosebumps.” The film’s dramatic battle sequences, emotional depth in the second half, and powerful climax have resonated with audiences, with some calling it Bollywood’s first major hit of 2025.

Selena Gomez is stepping back into the music scene—but this time, it’s more personal than ever.
