Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor is riding high on the success of Sanju. The film managed to make a good collection at the box office despite Salman Khan's Race 3 running alongside.
Ranbir now seems confident in competing with Salman at the box office as Shamshera will release for Eid 2020. Salman releases a film almost every year on Eid but 2020 might just not be his.
