Salman Khan and Eid have become synonyms is the past few years - such that the superstar has often come with his releases around this auspicious festival season. Eid release is seen as a Salman Khan turf where people throng to the theaters to see their idol on screen.

In the last few years, Salman Khan and blockbuster Eid releases have been inseparable. Salman and his relationship with Eid release started with 'Wanted', followed by 'Bodyguard', 'Dabangg', 'Ek Tha Tiger' and 'Kick'. This time again the actor will be seen celebrating Eid with his audience with the highly anticipated Eid release 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'. Shared Salman,"During the festive season, families get time to watch films together. A lot of my films have released on Eid and I am very happy that Bajrangi Bhaijaan will again be releasing on Eid this year."

However, this time around the actor will be coming a day before Eid, ie Friday, 17th July 2015.

"With every passing year EID has become synonymous with Salman Khan. Traditionally in Bollywood-Diwali, 15th Aug, 26th Jan and Christmas have been considered big release windows but it was Salman with 'Wanted' who created Eid as a lucrative window. Every year since 2009 he's set new box office records. This year as well with Bajrangi Bhaijaan, where Salman is also a producer we hope to go past previous records" shares Amar Butala, co-produced and COO of Salman Khan Films.

Kabir Khan, the director of Bajrangi Bhaijaan said, "3 years ago I witnessed from close quarters the hysteria that surrounds a Salman release on Eid. The "Ek Tha Tiger" release hysteria was a phenomenon that had to be seen to be believed. Over the past decade watching a Salman film has almost become an integral part of Eid celebrations. And this year as we are approaching Eid... I can already feel that now familiar sense of public euphoria building up. Can't wait for EID to bring on Bajrangi Bhaijaan."
