Salman challenges Akshay!

It’s going to be a war at the box office in June 2012 as Salman will take on Akshay Kumar by releasing his film on the same day as Akshay’s.
Sajid Nadiadwala has recently announced that the sequel of Sajid Khan’s Housefull will be released post IPL in 2012. Interestingly, Salman’s Ek Tha Tiger which is slated to release on July 1 will thus clash with Akshay’s comic caper.
Director Sajid Khan started shooting for Housefull 2 last month in London while Salman starrer will commence end of this month and will be shot in Iraq. Katrina is paired opposite Salman in ETT which will be directed by Kabir Khan.
Let’s see who overshadows the other at the box office. Going by the current record, Akshay is the one who desperately needs a hit!
