Chachi 420
on a winning streak
After
an alarmingly low-key beginning Kamal Haasan's Chachi 420 seems to have settled
down to regale audiences in the North, breaking the ace actor's hoodoo. Not
just that, Kamal's directorial skills are being applauded too.
With the
riotous situations arising out of Kamal's transformation into a Mrs Doubtfire
like character fascinating the audiences, the film has maintained an impressive
90 per cent collections in the second week.
AANKHON MEIN
TUM HO
The
film which opened to a lukewarm response couldnt pick up, and at the
end of the first week the collections were much below 50 per cent. Both,
producer Shakti Samanta and director Ashim Samanta, preferred to release
the film without much ado and this affected the collections. Sharad Kapoor
and Suman Ranganathan couldnt evoke much enthusiasm among the audiences,
though their characters were strong and they were backed by a strong
story.
Aflatoon
Neither
Akshay Kumar's action nor Urmila's peppy presence coupled with an excellent
musical score by Dilip Sen-Sameer Sen could pull Aflatoon out of fire. The
second week collections registered an unimpressive 50 per cent.
Ishq
This
Indra Kumar flick is having a great time at the box-office with 84 per cent
collections in the fifth week. The film was helped by sprightly performances
from Aamir and Juhi, backed by Ajay and Kajol. May be it will inspire Ajay
to move out of the 'only action' bracket.
Dil To Pagal
Hai
This
Shah Rukh Khan-Madhuri Dixit-Karisma Kapoor love triangle continues to woo
the audiences. In the ninth week, the collections increased slightly, from
76 per cent in the previous week, to 79 per cent. Director Yash Chopras
romantic, touches and Uttam Singhs music have appealed to the audience
in a big way. Youth dont seem to have enough of the
film.
Since the
month of Ramzan has begun, there will be no major releases for a month. Films
will be released only in January end. |
