Diwali has always been a special occasion for the entertainment industry. Every year, this festive season witnesses the release of several big-budget films that often become the talk of the town for weeks. This year is no exception — Ayushmann Khurrana’s “Thaama,” Harshvardhan Rane’s “Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat,” and Emraan Hashmi–Yami Gautam’s “Haq” are set to hit theatres during Diwali. It will be interesting to see how these three films perform at the box office.

“Thaama” — Starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, this horror-comedy film is releasing on October 21. Even before its release, it has generated significant buzz. According to a report by **Pinkvilla**, the film is expected to earn between ₹17–22 crore on its opening day. The songs and trailer have already been well received, and audiences are excited to see Ayushmann and Rashmika’s on-screen chemistry. This marks the first time the duo will share screen space together.

On the other hand, Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa’s romantic film “Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat” is also set to release this Diwali, on October 21. The film has been making headlines for the past few weeks. As per **Pinkvilla**, its opening day collections are expected to be between ₹70 lakh and ₹1 crore. The trailer has received a positive response, and the love-hate story between Harshvardhan and Sonam has caught the audience’s attention.

This Diwali, these two films will clash head-on at the box office. The first-day collections will reveal who emerges as the true winner of this festive season.
