Mumbai: Sanjay Leela Bhansali who did a visual treat with Bajirao Mastani said, any day Shah Rukh Khan will get a bigger opening and he is a big star.

The clash between ‘Dilwale’ and ‘Bajirao Mastani’ has been the talk of Bollywood. ‘Dilwale’ started off on a high note, but as it progressed, the momentum was lost somewhere in between. Now regarding ‘Dilwale’, Sanjay Leela Bhansali said,

“Shah Rukh is a bigger star. He is such a big star that even if he would have come on any day, he would have got a good opening. But our movie was something different. We are happy to create and shape it. It was a magic.

There was some blessing of God constantly on the film so I knew it will start a little slow, but we will eventually catch up. It is so heart warming to know that people have showered love on our film. All numbers and math collapse when you just don’t like a movie.

So I don’t believe in a total number of screens. But if People don’t like, all those never matter. The repeat value is important. Love of the people to experience this world of Bajirao Mastani is important. Both ‘Bajirao Mastani’ and ‘Dilwale’ are two contrasting genres. This is a new experience indeed.”
