While August 31 is the date that has more or less been confirmed for RAM GOPAL VERMA KI AAG, there are initial indications that DARLING would arrive just a week later i.e. September 07th. If something like that indeed happens that it won’t be anything less than a professional hara-kiri since it would only result in clashing of business between the two films.

Even in the earlier days, one can’t remember the last time that such a situation worked for a film maker. Years back David Dhawan found himself in this situation with DEEWANA MASTANA and MR. AND MRS. KHILADI. In spite of both the films being good, audience showed a green signal only to DEEWANA MASTANA.

Situation was repeated around two years back when Priyadarshan had two of his films releasing on the same day – GARAM MASALA and KYUNKI. The world knows about which of the two films went on to do bumper business!
