Missing Salman Khan's Movie This Eid al-Fitr 2024? Fret Not, Bollywood Has a List of Releases Ready

Eid is here, and Muslims around the world are in a celebratory mood. For movie buffs, Eid also means the release of a Salman Khan film. But, this year, Bollywood’s Bhaijaan has no release, nor does he have any major releases in the coming months.

While the reason behind this absence remains undisclosed, earlier reports suggested that Khan opted for a break following disappointing box office performances of his last festival releases, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan and Tiger 3.

Reportedly, the actor is currently being selective about his projects and is carefully reading scripts before giving commitment. Earlier this year, Salman surprised everyone after he announced his collaborations with Karan Johar and AR Murugadoss.

As audiences eagerly wait for Salman’s next releases, let’s take a look back at his past Eid blockbusters and the films slated for release on Eid 2024.
