‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ took the nation by storm by fetching one of the biggest starts at the box-office. The start was at par with ‘Love Aaj Kal’ at several screens, although ‘LAK’ had more shows than APKGK, since ‘London Dreams’ has retained some screens, while JAIL, the other new release, has also opened quite wide.

The trends were evident on Thursday night itself, when the paid previews of ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ were held. The response was fantastic. The early morning shows opened to an overwhelming response and the film was maintaining the tempo during the subsequent shows. The opening is at par with any superstar's film, the various distributors/exhibitors this writer spoke to, echoed in unison.

The youth has taken to ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ in a big way and the first weekend numbers of the film should be incredible. It's easily Ranbir Kapoor's biggest opener to date and catapults him to the 'Prime Club'. Besides, the Ranbir - Katrina jodi seems to be the new flavour of the season. Rajkumar Santoshi too has bounced back with renewed vigour, while Ramesh Taurani, its producer, has yet another Hit to his credit.

On the other hand, ‘Jail’ has been sidelined due to the ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ wave. The film carries favourable reports, so let's hope its numbers show a jump on Saturday and Sunday.

Watch it. Awesome movie ! by Sandeep on 2009-11-09 22:42:17.816503+05:30 I literally laughed and cried in the first half of the movie. I laughed when i was supposed to cry and cried when I was supposed to laugh. I couldn't handle my emotions and had to leave the movie mid-way. Please watch it and post the story of the second half for me

1 Not the best movie
by manju on 2009-11-09 11:59:57.851115+05:30I watched this movie yesterday.. It's not upto the mark the movies made these days by youngsters. It's a typical bollywood movies made in 90s. It's a timepass movie if you don't get sleep in the cinema hall.
