It is not new for Bollywood movies to seek to cash in on certain occasions. While big makers choosing the same date to release their movies is not a novelty, what's truly exciting is the evolving nature of the box office battle. The fight for audiences’ attention now extends far beyond the initial opening weekend. Each day after release brings a new twist and a new strategy that keeps moviegoers excited.
For instance, according to reports, Street 2 (starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao), Vedaa (headlined by John Abraham), Khel Khel Mein (starring Akshay Kumar and Taapsee Pannu), and Double iSmart (with Ram Pothineni and Sanjay Dutt) will all be released on Independence Day, August 15, 2024. So, which movie will you watch? We help you decide by giving you a glimpse into each movie:

After numerous speculations and sneak peeks, Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao are ready to take your breath away once again with Stree 2. The sequel follows the events of the first installment. The village of Chanderi is plagued by the new horror of a headless entity kidnapping women.
Vedaa
