Can This Historic Twist Upset Rajamouli & Prabhas?

Quite unexpectedly, this unexpected competition is now trying to test the box office presence of Rajamouli’s RRR and Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam. And that coming from a big production house like Yash Raj Films will have a staggering number of theatres occupied though the production house lost its sheen in the recent times for coming up with mediocre content.

Other day, the teaser of superstar Akshay Kumar’s historical epic movie ‘Prithviraj’ was unveiled by Yash Raj Films where the star hero will portray the role of Rajput king Prithviraj Chauhan, who reigned back in 1178 AD and was considered legendary. The teaser presents Akshay in a striking look, while the epic battle scenes and other elements sound very intriguing. And also the makers confirmed that the film will hit cinemas on January 21, 2022.

With Rajamoul’s RRR hitting cinemas on January 7th and Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam on 14th, it will surely be a tough fight for Akshay Kumar at the Hindi box office with two biggies around. With Saaho, even Bollywood understood how much presence Prabhas commands up north, and Rajamouli also enjoys similar attention there. But then, Akshay is not a small hero and local distributors might prefer to release Akshay’s movie after the initial storm of RRR and Radhe Shyam cools down. These two films should do exceptionally well such that Akshay’s historic treat will not upset them. Else, they have to get ready for the twist.

Akshay Kumar’s Prithviraj also features Sanjay Dutt and Sonu Sood in pivotal roles, while former Miss World Manushi Chhillar is getting introduced as the leading lady on silver screen.
