The biggest clash of the year took place this week as Dunki was released in cinemas on December 21 while Salaar arrived in cinemas today, that is, December 22. It’s common for show-sharing problems to take place when two big movies collide at the ticket window. But the problems that cropped up with these two films are unprecedented. Salaar makers had decided to pull their film from PVR Inox and Miraj properties in the South after they accused the multiplex chains of ‘unfair trade practice’. A few hours later, thanks to the impact of the article, all parties renegotiated the deal. It was expected that show-sharing would take place. Alas, it hasn’t happened. Instead, exhibitors were asked to play either of the two films. As a result, some opted for Dunki while others decided to play Salaar.
