Contrary to buzz, it will be Akshay Kumar versus Salman Khan at the box office on the festive day in 2013

If rumours are to be believed, as per traditions Salman Khan will indeed make his appearance at the box office on Eid, 2013. Earlier it was being said that Akshay Kumar would be releasing his upcoming gangster film without much competition on Eid next year.


However, our sources tell us that Salman and Sohail Khan have now purchased the remake the rights of a south Indian film, which will be released on the festive occasion. However, this is not Sohail's long-in-the-waiting Sher Khan. A source says, "Salman has had an amazing track record with four back-to-back hits on Eid. The name of the South remake is being kept under wraps till a formal announcement is made."
