Do you want to miss a Salman Khan movie this Eid-ul-Fitr 2024? Don’t worry, Bollywood has a list of releases ready for you
Eid has arrived and Muslims around the world are in a festive mood. For movie buffs, Eid also marks the release of Salman Khan films. However, this year, there is no release of Bhaijaan in Bollywood and there will be no major release in the coming months.
The reason for this absence is yet to be revealed, but earlier reports had suggested that Khan had mentioned that his last festival releases, ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’ and ‘Tiger 3’, had disappointing box office results. It seems that they have decided to take a hiatus from their activities.
The actor is reportedly currently hand-picking his projects and is carefully reading scripts before committing. Earlier this year, Salman surprised everyone by announcing collaborations with Karan Johar and AR Murugadoss.
