Saiyaara vs Ye Re Ye Re Paisa 3: Yash Raj Films and Dharma Productions CLASH for the first time ever; limited shows of Mohit Suri-directorial in Gaiety-Galaxy raises eyebrows

Aditya Chopra’s Yash Raj Films (YRF) and Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions have been two of the most respected production houses of Indian Cinema and have always been each other’s support. Karan Johar started his career with Aditya Chopra; for a long time, YRF distributed films of Dharma and hence, their bond goes back a long way. Hence, both banners have never released their film on the same day.
