The Bollywood box office is headed for an intense showdown as three highly anticipated films are set to compete during the Eid 2026 festive release. Ajay Devgn’s laugh-riot Dhamaal 4, Ranbir Kapoor’s grand romantic epic Love and War, and Yash’s action-packed venture Toxic will all arrive in cinemas the same weekend, setting the stage for a monumental clash in Indian cinema.
Eid 2026 Set for a Mega Box Office Clash
Ajay Devgn returns to breathe new life into the much-loved Dhamaal series with its fourth edition. Under the direction of Indra Kumar, Dhamaal 4 aims to deliver side-splitting comedy, classic slapstick humour, and chaotic situations, positioning itself as an ideal family entertainer for viewers seeking light and breezy content.
Simultaneously, Ranbir Kapoor teams up once again with Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ambitious project, Love and War. This grand period romance will highlight Bhansali’s trademark visual splendour, emotional depth, and rich cinematic aesthetics, making it a strong contender among fans of classic Bollywood love stories.
In the action genre, Kannada superstar Yash, who shot to pan-India fame with his blockbuster KGF franchise, steps into the lead role for Toxic. Directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic promises to be an intense, stylised action thriller featuring adrenaline-pumping sequences and breathtaking visuals, aiming to captivate audiences across the country.
Industry insiders predict that this massive clash could affect the individual collections of all three films. Yash’s Toxic reportedly targets a staggering Rs 700 crore global gross, aiming to surpass records set by Prabhas. However, the simultaneous release of crowd-pullers like Dhamaal 4 and Love and War could challenge its dominance, especially in Hindi-speaking regions.
Eid has traditionally been a golden period for major Bollywood blockbusters, and the 2026 lineup ensures a diverse cinematic offering—comedy, romance, and action—appealing to every segment of moviegoers. With such heavyweight films vying for audience attention, the Eid 2026 box office race is poised to become one of the most talked-about clashes in Indian cinema history.
Fans and trade analysts alike are eagerly awaiting this monumental battle that will shape the box office landscape in 2026.
