August 1 will witness major clash of 7 big films at box office, the films are Son of Sardar 2 and...., full list here
August is set to open with fireworks, not in the sky, but on the silver screen. On 1st August, a whopping seven films from Bollywood, South cinema, and Hollywood will hit theatres. It's not the first time the box office has witnessed a multi-film collision, but this one is making waves for its scale and timing. Coming off the unstoppable high of Saiyaara, audiences seem more than ready to flock back to theatres. The question now: Which of these seven stories will rise above the rest? What films are in the line-up? 1. Son of Sardar 2 Ajay Devgn returns with a sequel to his 2012 hit comedy. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, this one blends romance, family drama, and desi humour as it follows a man helping a couple gain parental approval. The film stars Mrunal Thakur and Ravi Kishan alongside Devgn. 2. Dhadak 2 A bold retelling of the Tamil hit Pariyerum Perumal, this Siddhant Chaturvedi, Triptii Dimri starrer dives into caste, love, and resistance. Directed by Shazia Iqbal, it's far more intense than its predecessor. 3. Holy Ghost A supernatural horror flick with a twist—a kidnapped girl claims she was saved by the ghost of a dead cop. With Jane Osborne in the lead, this Hollywood entry adds eerie vibes to the mix. 4. Ajay: The Untold Story of a Yogi This political biopic starring Anand Joshi tells the story of Yogi Adityanath, inspired by The Monk Who Became Chief Minister. Directed by Ravindra Gautam, it blends politics with personal transformation. 5. The Bad Guys 2 A laugh riot for kids and grown-ups alike, this animated sequel follows reformed villains trying to stay good—and failing hilariously. Expect chaos with Mr. Wolf, Mr. Snake, and more. 6. Kalamkaval Mammootty headlines this Malayalam crime drama about tradition, family honour, and moral dilemmas. Rich in emotion and grit, it's a heavy hitter in regional cinema. 7. Blackmail In this Tamil thriller, GV Prakash Kumar plays a man caught in the grip of a shadowy blackmailer. Tense, sharp, and full of twists. After the thunderous success of Saiyaara, the industry is testing whether audiences are truly back in theatres—or if that film was an exception. With multiple genres from romance and action to horror and animation, this clash could reshape release strategies for the rest of 2025. Who will come out on top? Will Devgn's star power carry Son of Sardar 2? Can Dhadak 2 spark a new conversation? Or will a dark horse like Blackmail or Holy Ghost surprise everyone? One thing's certain—August 1 will be a day to remember at the movies.
