Eid is a festival that almost always sees a Salman Khan film release - the list includes Bodyguard, Kick, Ek Tha Tiger, Race 3 and Bharat. Akshay Kumar too is no stranger to box office competition, his Gold having released on the same day as John Abraham's Satyameva Jayate last year. Akshay's Mission Mangal clashed with John's Batla House this year. In the year 2016, Hrithik Roshan's Mohenjo Daro also clashed with Akshay Kumar's Rustom.
Coming back to Laxmmi Bomb, the film is a Hindi remake of the 2011 Tamil horror comedy Muni 2: Kanchana, which showcases the story of Raghav, who suffers from a fear of ghosts and undergoes a personality transformation after being possessed by the spirit of a transgender named Laxmmi.
Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai is an action film, which will be directed by Prabhu Deva. The film will mark Salman and Prabhu Deva's third collaborative project. The duo have earlier worked together in the 2009 film Wanted and the forthcoming film Dabangg 3.
