While SRK is a bigger star than Hrithik, this clash will be a clash between equals. People have watched Kaabil already and are heaping praises on the film, especially Hrithik. 

Now, we have details about the division of screens. While it was earlier speculated that Raees might get more than 60% of the total screens, the final result is good for both the films. The difference is not much. 

SRK's Raees has got 2600 screens approx whereas Kaabil will release in around 2300 screens. Rakesh Roshan's goodwill has worked in the film's favour and the exhibitors have also kept a slot free which will be given to either Kaabil or Raees, depending on the films' reception at the BO.

Raees dominates a little in the single screens but the division of screens at the multiplexes are almost at par, with 50-50 sharing between the two. Now, that's what you call a battle between equals, right?
