In the midst of Raees-Kaabil clash, Hrithik Roshan has penned down a heartfelt message for Shah Rukh Khan. "Dear @iamsrk today as a mentor I'm sure u will inspire me yet again with #Raaes and as a student I hope you are proud of me with #Kaabil’, he tweeted.
Both the Bollywood stars have always shared a good equation - both on and off screen. The two have also played reel brothers - Rahul and Rohan - in Karan Johar's family drama Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham.
Considering that it's the Republic Day weekend, both Raees and Kaabil makers chose the suitable slot for release of their respective films. This box office clash has been the most-talked about topic in the past few days.
Ever since Raees trailer was released, the film got surrounded by controversies. Initially, it was scheduled for an Eid-release clashing with Salman Khan-starrer Sultan but the makers strategically changed the date to January 25.
The release date of Kaabil was announced much before Raees came into the picture.
Much has been spoken and written about this box office clash but never did the stars voice their thoughts. Both the films hit the cinemas today. Let’s see how the battle ends.
