Ajay Devgn has stepped away from the major box office clash scheduled for next March. Dhamaal 4 now stands postponed, removing its competition with Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic. This shift has already changed the month’s release landscape.
An insider states that Ajay wants to avoid unnecessary risk. The source explains that he does not want a comedy to release beside a mass-appeal title that tackles political themes. The insider also feels Ranveer Singh’s film deserves a clear run.
Even with this move, March still looks crowded. Several films plan pan-India releases. Five major titles will fight for space in the North India market, and audiences will decide which one holds attention.
Adivi Sesh’s Dacoit arrives on Eid along with Toxic and Dhurandhar 2. A week later, Nani’s The Paradise and Ram Charan’s Peddi reach theatres. This line-up increases competition and adds pressure on every title.
Social media users claim Ajay backed out because Runway 34 and Maidaan did not perform well. Others believe Dhurandhar 2 leads the pack due to the strong hype created by the first film. Toxic also has a chance to click in Hindi with effective promotions, similar to K.G.F. Chapter 2.
Dacoit faces uncertainty as Adivi Sesh is not a known face in the Hindi belt. Major had strong content but did not make a big impact. Users say Dacoit may get overshadowed because two bigger films already dominate conversations.
Paradise and Peddi are expected to do well in Telugu. Their Hindi performance depends on whether viewers remain drawn to Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic. Peddi holds added weight for Ram Charan as it offers a comeback after Game Changer underperformed.
March also brings festivals like Ugadi and Gudi Padwa, which push viewers toward theatres. With strong footfall expected, you now watch to see which film breaks records by the end of the month.
