Aamir Khan, Shahrukh Khan: Movies War for Christmas 2011

Aamir Khan, Shahrukh Khan: Movies War for Christmas 2011: After a rigorous shoot for his superhero flick ‘Ra. One’, Shahrukh Khan is now in Berlin busy with the filming of Don 2. The sequel to Don, this promising thriller is being helmed by Farhan Akhtar and also stars Priyanka Chopra as the lead female.

Meanwhile, Aamir Khan has signed an untitled suspense thriller by Reema Kagti and that film shall be going on the floors on February, 2011.

Though, no official date has been selected yet, the makers are planning to release this Aamir venture in the last phase of 2011.

Interestingly, Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani are the producers of both the films. Certainly, they won’t desire a clash. But Don 2 has been slated for a 23rd December, 2011 release, a date that can never go wrong unless the film is abysmally poor. Film makers these days do try to cash in on the festive fervour of Diwali and Christmas.

But since Aamir prefers his films to find a Christmas release, one can’t be blamed for believing that Reema Kagti’s film shall find a theatrical release around the same time. But since both films are under the Farhan Akhtar banner, a clash is unlikely to take place.

Reema has tried to dismiss this speculation but it would be interesting to see which of the two Khans can lock the Christmas date.
