Ranveer Singh’s film ‘Dhurandhar’ not only created a stir at the box office, but also created a stir in the planning meetings of Bollywood. Seeing its stormy earnings, big directors, makers and superstars are now being forced to change the release date of their films. Shahrukh Khan’s film ‘King’ and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Love and War’ have also joined this trend.

Only one part of ‘Dhurandhar’ has been released. Its second part is going to come on 19 March 2026. In such a situation, other big producers and superstars have also started rethinking their strategy. It is being speculated that a plan is being made to release these films in two parts, so that both the impact of the story and the box office bang can be increased. By doing this, direct conflict of films can also be avoided.

Will take risk for this reason
According to the report of Bollywood Hungama, in view of the tremendous success of ‘Dhurandhar’, now there are plans to release Shahrukh Khan’s ‘King’ and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Love and War’ in two parts. The reason is clear: to avoid direct conflict and also to protect the point of views of the business.

There will be a gap of six months
Not only this, the big budget and grand sets of these films are also forcing the makers to divide the story into two parts. The plan is to keep a gap of about six months between the two parts. This will maintain the enthusiasm of the audience and the earnings can also be doubled.

The plan will be finalized on these conditions
According to reports, this decision will be taken only when the film has enough content that the story can be divided into two parts properly. Currently, the shooting of both ‘King’ and ‘Love and War’ is going on in full swing. It will be decided only during editing whether the film will come in one part or two.

Why release in two parts is beneficial?
Releasing the film in two parts earns more from satellite and digital rights. Also, the makers get complete freedom to show the story openly. This is the reason why the success of ‘Dhurandhar’ has forced the entire industry to think about this formula.

When will ‘Love and War’ and ‘King’ come?
Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film ‘Love and War’ was earlier scheduled to release in December 2025. However, now there is talk of its release in August or September 2026. Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are in lead roles in this film. Shahrukh Khan’s ‘King’ is going to be released this year. Its release date has not been finalized yet. Suhana Khan, Deepika Padukone, Jaideep Ahlawat and many big actors will be seen in this film.
