The overall lead is healthy for Ae Dil Hai Mushkil mainly because there is a trend of more advance booking in the big centres and the advance of Shivaay started in large on Wednesday as against Monday of ADHM.

This means that the opening day numbers for ADHM will be better than Shivaay but Shivaay would perform better from Monday. There is an anti-Pakistan sentiment across the country and our media has done a good job of making Ae Dil Hai Mushkil look like a Fawad Khan starrer though his role has been reduced to a fleeting appearance. This may affect ADHM's performance.

The issue with Ajay Devgan starrer Shivaay is that the areas that it is expected to perform better are hit by Diwali Celebrations and therefore it is expected to collect better from Monday.

Let us hope that both the movies perform extremely well and entertain us all on this Diwali.

Things in favor of Shivaay:

1. Ajay Devgan's track record: Ajay Devgan has been rolling out interesting and entertaining movies. Be in Singham or Drishyam, his movies have been different yet entertaining for the masses.

2. Action: We do have lotta action movie fans in India and the action displayed in the trailed of Shivaay has excited all the fans.

3. Story: The story looks quite interesting from the trailer. Looks like Ajay's beloved kid is kidnapped by the Gundaa Logs and he goes on a mission to rescue her.

Things in favor of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil:

1. Karan Johar: He is one of the best Bollywood directors in India and we expect nothing but the best from this genius.

2. Music: ADHM songs are topping the charts now.

3. Aishwarya Rai: This movie has so become all about her beauty because this Miss World from India looks absolutely mind blowing in this movie. Her stunning looks have captivated our minds and we are all more excited to see her than Ranbir and Anushka.
