Rohit Shetty On Zero & Simmba's Box Office Clash: I'm Happy We Didn't Come With Shahrukh Khan
Shahrukh Khan's Zero and Rohit Shetty's Simmba were supposed to release together on 21st December but the producer of Simmba, Karan Johar decided to postpone the Ranveer Singh starrer.
Shahrukh
Khan's
Zero
and
Rohit
Shetty's
Simmba
were
supposed
to
release
together
on
21st
December
but
the
producer
of
Simmba,
Karan
Johar
decided
to
postpone
the
Ranveer
Singh
starrer
so
that
both
the
films
can
do
good
business.
In
a
recent
interview
to
Times
Now,
Rohit
Shetty
said
that
it
was
a
mature
decision
to
shift
the
date
of
his
movie.
He
said,
''I
am
happy
we
didn't
come
with
Shahrukh
and
mutually
we
sat
and
(decided)
otherwise
too
much
of
bloodbath
would've
been
there.''
He
added,
''Humaare
beech
kuch
nahin
hota
but
same
questions
ki,
"Aap
log
same
day
pe
aa
rahe
hain?" aur
"kya
dono
ke
beech
kuch
ho
gaya
hai?",
"Karan
Johar
aisa
hai",
"Shahrukh
Khan
waisa
hai
aur
Rohit
Shetty
waisa
hai".''
''Ek
hafta
late
aaye
toh
bhi
chala
woh
bakwaas.
Same
day
aate
toh
kitna
bakwaas
hota
tha
for
no
reason.
So,
it's
better
we
didn't
come
together.
(Nothing
would
have
happened
between
us
but
there
would've
been
these
same
questions
about
the
clash
that
something
is
not
right
between
Shahrukh
and
us.
We
came
a
week
late
still
we
were
subjected
to
these
questions.
So,
it's
better
we
didn't
come
together.)
Rohit
went
on
to
say,
''I
was
on
21st,
woh
bechaare
Karan
ko
sab
bol
rahe
hain
but
28th
happened
because
of
Karan.
Karan
took
the
initiative
ki,
"Let's
not
come
together".
The
credit
should
go
to
him
actually.
But,
it
happens
ek
baar
film
release
ho
jaati
hai
na
sab
band
ho
jaata
hai.
Then
the
film
will
speak.
So,
you
have
to
deal
with
all
this
till
the
time
the
film
doesn't
release."
(I
was
releasing
Simmba
on
December
21
earlier,
people
are
trolling
Karan
Johar
but
he
was
the
one
who
pushed
Simmba
to
December
28.
He
took
the
initiative
that,
"Let's
not
come
together".
The
credit
should
go
to
him
actually.
But
once
the
movie
releases
everything
stops.)
On
a
related
note,
Simmba
has
collected
a
total
of
Rs
206.76
crore
in
thirteen
days
at
the
box
office.
