'Om Shanti Om' Versus 'Saawariya' , Battle Royal Commences In India's Capital

It is almost certain now ( barring a miracle) that Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Om Shanti Om’ and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Saawariya’ will come together on 'Diwali'. And the confidence-of the dual 'Diwali' releases comes from the fact that the cinema bookings for both the big-budgeted extravaganzas have begun in Delhi in right earnest.

There is not much clamour for the multiplexes of the capital city of India because all the multiplexes have multiple screens and are equipped to release both the films on the festive occasion. But the scramble is for single screen cinemas because there are hardly any areas in Delhi with more than one single-screen cinema.

With Shah Rukh Khan not having conceded Bhansali’s request to postpone his ‘Om Shanti Om’ it will now be a clash of two big-budget movies on Diwali. ‘Om Shanti Om’ has reportedly cost Rs.35 crores to make. The budget of ‘Saawariya’ is also said to be in the region of Rs. 40-crores.
