August 15 Releases - Exhibitors Expect Bloodbath!
The hindi cinema industry will have a tough task on august 15, 2024, since three big releases—Stree 2, Khel Khel Mein, and Vedaa—are slated for the same day.
* stree 2: rajkummar rao and Shraddha Kapoor star in this follow-up to the popular 2018 movie. It gains from the popularity of the first one as well as jio Studios' solid studio support, which should secure a lot of screens.
* Khel Khel Mein: A comedy-thriller directed by T-Series and starring Akshay Kumar. Even though Kumar has had success in the past, the movie's performance may be impacted by recent box office setbacks.

* Vedaa: A Zee Studios action movie starring john Abraham. Though there is fierce competition for displays, it hopes to draw action enthusiasts.
There are worries that three big pictures might share screens, which could result in fewer showings and reduced ticket sales for each movie. Exhibitionists fear that distributors may put undue pressure on them to promote their films, which could result in confrontations and extortion.
The cinemas with a single screen will suffer the most since they will have to coordinate the showings of all three films, which will have an impact on their total income and advance sales. Because of the battle for screens and showtimes, Akshaye rathi forecasts a "bloodbath." raj Bansal suggests that delaying one movie may prevent controversy, likening the current state of affairs to a high-stakes bet.

The idea to release all three films at once has drawn criticism from Vishek Chauhan, who claims that this will hinder the films' potential at the box office and put undue strain on cinemas. In order to give each movie more screen time and a greater chance of succeeding, many think one of the movies should be rescheduled for a later date. Other films like Thangalaan, Double iSmart, and potentially ravi Teja's Mr. Bachchan (if it comes out in Hindi) will also be released on august 15.
