Clash between Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar’s Bachchan Pandey averted

Big movies clashing at the box office are nothing new in Bollywood now. This year we have already seen two big clashes, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior vs Chhapaak and Panga vs Street Dancer 3D. We will get to see many more clashes this year, but one clash that would have been the clash of the titans was Aamir Khan vs Akshay Kumar.

Aamir Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar starrer Bachchan Pandey were supposed to release on Christmas 2020. But now, the latter won’t release on Christmas 2020.


Aamir took to Twitter to thank Akshay Kumar and Sajid Nadiadwala for shifting their film. He tweeted, "Sometimes all it takes is one conversation. Thank you to my friends @akshaykumar & Sajid Nadiadwala for their warm gesture of moving the release date of their film Bachchan Pandey at my request. I wish them the very best for their film. Looking forward to it. Love. a.”

Akshay took to Twitter to announce the new release date of Bachchan Pandey. He tweeted, “Anytime @aamir_khan, we’re all friends here ? Presenting - new look, new release date. Coming on 22nd January, 2021. In and as #BachchanPandey! #SajidNadiadwala @farhad_samji @kritisanon.”

Akshay starrer Bell Bottom was slated to release on 22nd January 2021. Now, this movie will also get postponed and get a new release date.
