Saiyara Continues Its Box Office Domination
Currently, Saiyara is ruling the box office with massive success. The film is breaking new earning records every day, and the audience response remains overwhelming. Due to the soaring popularity and strong demand for Saiyara, the release date of Son of Sardaar 2 was pushed back from its original schedule.
Narasimha Mahavatar Adds to the Competitive Pressure
Adding to the challenge, another big release—Narasimha Mahavatar—has recently hit theatres and is performing strongly at the box office. This has intensified the competition for Son of Sardaar 2, creating an even tougher environment for its release.

Release Date Postponed, But Screen Shortage Persists
Son of Sardaar 2 was initially slated to release on July 22. However, due to Saiyara’s continued dominance, the makers decided to postpone the release to August 1. Despite this shift, the film is still facing a severe shortage of available screens due to the continued strong performance of both Saiyara and Narasimha Mahavatar.
Theatre Owners Favor Saiyara Over Son of Sardaar 2
Produced by YRF, Saiyara remains highly in demand even in its second week. As a result, theatre owners have been reluctant to reduce its screen count. On the other hand, Narasimha Mahavatar, which was released on 800 screens initially, has now expanded to 2,000 screens due to increasing audience demand.
This leaves Son of Sardaar 2 struggling to secure the screen space it needs for a successful release.
PVR and INOX Dispute Over Show Allocation
According to a report by Pinkvilla, a dispute has arisen between multiplex chains PVR and INOX regarding the show allocation for Son of Sardaar 2. The multiplex chains are demanding that the film be given at least 60% show slots, while most theatre owners are only willing to offer 35%. Some single-screen cinemas have agreed to give the film two shows daily, but smaller theatre chains are standing firm on the 35% allocation.
This disagreement has left multiplex owners frustrated, prompting them to lobby hard for better screen availability.
Dhadak 2 to Release on August 1 — More Competition Ahead
Adding to the already crowded release schedule, Dhadak 2 is also set to hit theatres on August 1. Although it will open on fewer screens initially, if the audience response is positive, the film’s screen count is likely to increase—creating even more competition for Son of Sardaar 2.
