Dhurandhar 2 Vs Toxic Clash Stirs Up the Box Office
Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge' and Yash's pan-India film 'Toxic' are clashing on March 19, 2026. Both films have massive hype, and no filmmaker wants to compete.

Sunny Deol's 'Gabru' Is Out of the Race
Sunny Deol's film 'Gabru' was set for March 13 but is now postponed. Makers are mulling a new date. Sources say this is due to low footfall during Ramadan and the big clash on March 19. After 'Border 2' and 'Gadar 2', Sunny's market value is high, so producers want a solo release.

'Pati Patni Aur Woh 2' Release Also Delayed
'Pati Patni Aur Woh 2', starring Ayushmann, Sara, Wamiqa, and Rakul, was set for March 4 but is now pushed back. It's a light entertainer for families. Getting screens amid big action clashes in March was tough, so makers decided to wait for a better box office window.
The sports action drama 'Peddi', with Ram Charan in the lead, was first set for March 27, 2026. But with shooting and post-production ongoing, the release is now April 30, 2026. The recently released poster showing Ram Charan's rough and intense look has increased the excitement for the film.
