Salman and Vivek vie for Sequels

Forget the highly anticipated Dabangg 2; it's all about churning out sequels for children's movies as both Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi (hardly Bollywood's besties) have clashed to release their respective projects first.

Salman Khan - who is no stranger to projects for children - had earlier co-produced Chillar Party alongside Vikas Bahl. Vivek Oberoi also seems to have taken a leaf out of Salman's book as he joined Mangesh Hadawale for Dekh Indian Circus. Despite the difference in the two release dates, both movies have competed globally for attention and were later honoured at the International Children's Film Festival with top awards.

Interestingly, the function held in Hyderabad was expected to see both stars making an appearance. However they did not attend at the last moment, presuming the other would be present.

Now that the films have both done well, it seems to have become a matter of pride to the actors who have both urged their directors to churn out sequels first. Both Vikas Bahl and Mangesh Hadawale have confirmed that sequels will be taking place, but we wonder who will get the upperhand this time?
