The year of 2017 has been full of surprises. This year several big movies tanked at the box office, wherein the content-driven films played the hero. Even the festival releases didn’t do that well at the box office except a few of them. But nevertheless, the year 2017 is coming to an end and we are sure that Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmavati and Ali Abbas Zafar’s Tiger Zinda Hai will leave a huge impact at the box office.

Producers and makers emphasis on festivals for releasing their films. There is literally a competition between the films which tend to clash on the same day that too if it is a festival release. The coming years 2018 and 2019 are full of big-budget movies that will have a festive release. The dates have been already booked for the next two years. Have a look:
