Even as cinemas are fully to become profitable ventures once again in the post-lockdown scenario, two of the biggest releases this year are already lined up for a box office clash that could dent prospects of an already suffering the film trade. The much-hyped RRR and Maidaan have both been confirmed for an October 13 release this year.

RRR is a directorial venture of Baahubali-famed SS Rajamouli and the film stars Ram Charan, Jr. NTR, Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn. The film, rumoured to be riding a budget of over Rs 450 crore, is slated to releases in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam languages.
