One of the most repulsive conflicts in the business in recent years was that between prabhas and Shah Rukh Khan in Salaar and Dunki. Even the filmmakers went out of their way to disparage one other's works as the fan wars escalated beyond all reasonable bounds. Prashanth Neel, the director of Salaar, has now expressed regret to Shah Rukh Khan and rajkumar hirani for their film's conflict.

Nearly a year ago, Shah Rukh Khan had declared that Dunki will be released during Christmas. Our disagreement with them was incorrect. However, we had to arrive on that date because to the producer's views and astrological considerations. I'm sorry, Shah Rukh Khan and the Dunki crew. "Prithviraj, prabhas, and I were not involved in the release date decision," he continued. The producer chose to argue since he is a strong believer in astrology and doesn't stray from it. We simply had to grudgingly agree.
However, the potential of both films was destroyed by this conflict. Salaar would have easily surpassed the 200 crore net number in Hindi, while Dunki would have surpassed the 500 crore level globally. If such astrology just leads to losses for both sides, what good is it?
