Bollywood's Latest Buzz: From a Major Box Office Clash Averted to a Fresh Superstar Pairing on the Cards?

The Bollywood industry is always buzzing with exciting updates, from major release date shuffles to exciting new casting coups. Today is no different, with two significant pieces of news grabbing the spotlight. One involves a major shift in the 2026 release calendar for a highly-anticipated comedy sequel, while the other hints at a fresh A-list pairing for a mythological epic. Here’s a breakdown of the latest buzz. The Dhamaal franchise, directed by Indra Kumar, is one of Bollywood's most beloved comedy series, known for its slapstick humour and ensemble casts. After the box office success of Total Dhamaal (2019), which saw Ajay Devgn join the original trio of Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, and Jaaved Jaaferi, anticipation for Dhamaal 4 has been incredibly high. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The big news, according to the latest reports, is that the film has been postponed from its previously announced Eid 2026 release date. This strategic move averts what was shaping up to be a monumental three-way clash at the box office. With Dhamaal 4 shifting its release, the Eid 2026 holiday weekend is now set for a direct face-off between two other massive projects: Yash's highly-awaited gangster saga Toxic and Ranveer Singh's action entertainer Dhurandhar 2. Fans will now be eagerly waiting for the makers of Dhamaal 4 to announce its new theatrical release date. On the casting front, a thrilling new possibility has emerged. Mahavatar, a mythological epic directed by Amar Kaushik (of Stree and Bala fame), has been in the news ever since it was announced with Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. The film is expected to be a grand-scale production, exploring tales from Indian mythology. The latest buzz is that superstar Deepika Padukone is in talks to star opposite Vicky Kaushal as the film's female lead. If this exciting collaboration comes to fruition, it would mark the very first time the two powerhouse actors share screen space, making for a fresh and highly anticipated on-screen pairing. While the discussions are reportedly in the early stages and an official confirmation is awaited, the prospect of seeing Deepika and Vicky together in a film of this magnitude has already generated immense excitement among fans and industry circles.

Dhamaal 4 Wraps Filming: Ajay Devgn and Team Re-confirm A Blockbuster Box Office Clash As Complete Cast Reveal

Mumbai, September 6 – The wait for one of Bollywood's most beloved comedy franchises just got more exciting as the shoot of Dhamaal 4, directed by Indra Kumar, has officially wrapped up, and the makers have reconfirmed its release date for Eid 2026. Fronted by Ajay Devgn, the fourth instalment brings back the iconic trio of Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, and Jaaved Jaaferi, who have been synonymous with the franchise's success. The upcoming film also marks the return of Sanjay Mishra and Esha Gupta from the last film, while also featuring Upendra Limaye, Anjali Anand, Sanjeeda Shaikh, and Ravi Kishan. Produced by T-Series, Maruti International, Ajay Devgn Films, and Panorama Studios, one of the most star-studded comedies in recent years promises to be a laughter-filled extravaganza that continues the legacy of Indra Kumar's comedy blockbusters. Aaj ki taaza khabar, brought to you by the gang, jo ab jald hi lootne aa rahe hain aapka dil…aur dimaag! 😉#Dhamaal4 arrives in cinemas on Eid 2026💥 @Riteishd @ArshadWarsi @jaavedjaaferi @imsanjaimishra #UpendraLimaye #AnjaliAnand @iamsanjeeda @ravikishann #EshaGupta… pic.twitter.com/VvBXSF7nY5— Ajay Devgn (@ajaydevgn) September 6, 2025 With its shooting wrapped and a powerhouse cast on board, fans can expect a perfect festive entertainer as the film gears up to hit theatres during Eid 2026. The Dhamaal franchise has been a fan-favourite since its inception, and with Ajay Devgn leading the madness this time, expectations are sky-high for another box office riot. Perfect But Highly Risky Release Date While Eid is a lucrative festive weekend for the box office, it is going to be a highly risky affair for the 2026 release. With Dhamaal 4 sticking to the original plan, the movie will have to face a mighty clash with Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal's Love & War, along with Yash's Toxic, which are slated for a March 19 debut. It needs to be seen if all three films, arrive on Eid 2026, which is unlikely.
