Q1, 2013… Looks Can Be Deceptive
Time sure flies, doesn’t it?! It seems like only yesterday that we were talking about ushering in the new year and hoping that the next 12 months would live up to a stellar 2012. And here we are, already through with the first quarter of the year.
So how ...
High On Success!
Like last year, films from Disney UTV Studio have once again captured the first three months of the year. If it was Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya, Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu and Paan Singh Tomar last year, this year it’s Race 2, ABCD and Kai Po Che. It’s a ...

Contrarian Bet, Anyone?
Our industry has often been criticised for exhibiting a certain herd mentality. In droves, filmmakers latch on to the last hit film or star and then try to create multiple clones of that success.
While it is easy for outsiders to deride this trait, the fraternity itself would justifiably ...

The Buzz Is Missing
The month of February has not been a great one for Bollywood. Except for Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (EMAET), which has managed to collect just about Rs 35 crore, none of the other two rom-coms, Tera Naal Love Ho Gaya (TNLHG) or Jodi Breakers, has made any significant impact ...

All In A Fortnight’s Work!
Fifteen days – there was only a tiny window between Agneepath, which released on January 26, and Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (EMAET), which hit the screens last Friday.
The two films are different in many ways. Agneepath is a gritty, violent, revenge drama rooted in the grime of Mumbai’s ...

EMAET: Decent Opening But Better Weekend Prospects
Dharma Productions is back again, and this time, with a romantic comedy Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (EMAET). The film, which has an unusual pairing of Kareena Kapoor and Imran Khan, opened to a lukewarm response and wrapped its first-day collections at over Rs 5.25 crore all-India NBOC.

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu
There’s nothing unusual about this film, and nothing new about the story except that the main protagonists get married by ‘mistake’. In short, it’s old wine in a new bottle. But what works in favour of Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is the way it has been packaged, the way ...
