With John having an Eid release, there are high chances that he'd lock horns with Salman Khan at the box office. Considering the actor has registered the holiday under his name since the past few years, it's no brainer that he'll have a project ready for 2021. Salman's Radhe was earlier scheduled to release on Eid 2020 but got delayed amid the pandemic. While the actor is yet to announce a new release date for it, we wonder if he'll decide and release it on the same festival weekend next year.

If and when it happens, it would be an interesting update and we'll keep you posted about it.
