Akshay Kumar's 1994 Blockbuster 'Mohra' Set to Re-Release Against 4Cr 'Ramayana'
The Diwali 2026 box office landscape just witnessed an unexpected retro twist as Akshay Kumar’s 32-year-old cult action thriller Mohra prepares to return to theaters nationwide, setting up a surprising theatrical clash against director Nitesh Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra’s monumental ₹4,000-crore mythological epic, Ramayan Part 1. While Ranbir Kapoor’s grand cinematic outing is widely anticipated to redefine Indian box office history when it debuts on November 5 during Diwali week, veteran production banner Trimurti Films Private Limited has announced that Mohra will hit the silver screen on November 6, creating an intriguing face-off between multi-generational 90s nostalgia and the single most expensive film production ever mounted in Indian cinema.
