Shah Rukh Khan is all geared up for his second release of the year ‘Jawan’ on September 7. The following month will also witness Prabhas’ film titled ‘Salaar Part 1 – Ceasefire’ release on September 29. However, there is over 20 days gap in the release of both films but the box office clash between them seems to have been in motion in the US. The advance bookings for both films are now open in the US. While ‘Jawan’s advance bookings commenced nearly a month before its release, ‘Salaar’s ticket windows are also opened well in advance.
According to reports, Prabhas’ film is outshining Shah Rukh Khan-starrer in terms of advance booking in the US. Several reports suggest that ‘Salaar’ has reportedly made $232,000 as compared to ‘Jawan’s $183,000 in advance ticket sales. A few reports also state that the disparity in the number may be due to ticket prices, where ‘Salaar’s average ticket prices stand at around $28, ‘Jawan’s average ticket prices are around $15.
