Tubelight vs The Ring

Salman Khan‘s upcoming release ‘Tubelight‘ is much-anticipated for various reasons, the most important one being Salman Khan himself. And now, one hears another interesting report about the movie, though on trade front. According to reports, the film which is due for a release in the coming festive season of Eid might have already created a new record, leaving behind Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma-starrer ‘The Ring’?

According to a report in a leading portal, all Indian distribution rights of the film, except those of Central India (CI), have been sold to NH Studioz for a record-breaking amount of Rs. 132 crore. Recently, it was been heard that the distribution rights of Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘The Ring’ was sold for Rs. 125 crore. However, in both the cases, these are mere reports and no confirmation from official houses has come. (Also Read: Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif shoot for the song ‘Dil Diyan Gallan’ from ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’)
