Salman Khan owns Eid, would not dare clash with him: Karan Johar

Mumbai: Karan Johar’s last production was the January release, ‘OK Jaanu,’ and he’s already back with his next, Shashank Khaitan’s ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’.

The film reunites Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt in Shashank’s second instalment in his ‘Dulhania' franchise, his follow-up to the successful ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania’.

On releasing the film during Holi, Karan said, tongue firmly in cheek, “Only Salman Khan owns Eids, I would never want to enter that territory. I would rather release my films on a day when my film works; I wouldn’t dare clash



with Salman Khan!”

On making a third instalment, he said, "We do plan to make a third part in the Dulhania series. The first one got lot of love from audience and if the second one also gets that much love we shall make third part. The team will remain the same."

However, Shashank clarified that there's no story ready as yet.

"We don't have a script in place for the third part. If the second one does well, then only we will make the third one," Shashank said.

The film releases on March 10.
