Shah Rukh Khan's Fan is expected to continue his good run at the box office.

In a first in a long time, SRK is working with a young filmmaker -- Maneesh Sharma (of Band Baaja Baaraat fame) -- in this (expectedly) fun affair that features him in a double role -- one as superstar Shah Rukh Khan himself and another as his fan. 

Release: August 14

After his Eid release, Salman will be seen in Sooraj Barjatya's Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.

Sonam Kapoor is the heroine while Neil Nitin Mukesh's role has been kept under wraps.

Release: November 1
