Will Chennai Express eat into Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Dobaara opening ?

Just like Diwali last year this years EID too would have seen two high profile releases of two big super stars colliding each other - Chennai Express & Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Dobaara. But unlike last year there was a  holiday in the following week, plus some intelligent tactics by UTV films, made OUATIMD back out from the head on fight, who would in any case be the biggest looser out of the two had they clashed.

according to sources UTV while making deals with theaters for Chennai Express is believed to have  made agreements according to which theaters cannot remove their film before it completes 1 week. At that time the release date of CE was August 8th, but then out of the blue they suddenly decided to postpone the release by one day, saying 'EID falls on 9th.' This according to the ealier agreement ruins the plans of OUATIMD which is supposed to come out on August 15th, the 7th day of CE. Then UTV once again hit a master stroke by releasing CE in about 80-85% of their total screens on 8th evening (After 6pm) itself, with a tag that its just 'Paid Previews' - a release which even smaller films can't afford in full scale. So in papers CE will still be hitting 7th day only on 15th and theaters can't reduce show times or remove the film for OUATIMD, which will affect the films chances.

Now come to the present, CE has released and with over whelming reviews from masses the film has broken almost all existing opening records. The WOM is so good that now even theater owners doesn't want to replace the movie on a National Holiday, aug 15th, Independence Day. The film will reportedly get only about 1500 screens in India, about 2000 less than what CE got.  So all those mentioned above have no validity anymore as its peoples demand and no longer UTV tactics that's affecting OUATIMD. As per now it looks like CE on Day 7 will NETT more than OUATIMD on its First Day

But all is not well with the OUATIMD as well, the promotion has been on the lower side, and almost invisible thanks to the extravagant promotions SRK and co did for CE. Also the songs are not yet popular, an important factor for Box Office opening. The visibility of promos, buzz is also very less for the film having 2 super heroes and one super heroine + its a sequel of a big hit too. May be the makers are very much confident with the product in hand, that they chose to under promote the movie. The movie might be a WOM hit like Aashiqui 2 & Bhaagh Milkha Baag.

Anyway we will get answers to all questions in  days time.....stay tuned for more udpates

Movie Review by Sree Prasad Nair

Theater – Al Wahda Cinemas, Abu Dhabi, UAE

04/07/2013 – 8.30pm

Occupancy – 80%

Director Vikramaditya Motwane made an outstanding entry in Bollywood with his critically acclaimed superhit Udaan in 2010. The film was officially selected at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. Lootera is the second film of Vikramaditya Motwane.. Lootera is inspired from 'The Last Leaf', a short story by American author O. Henry. Lootera stars Ranveer Singh, Sonakshi Sinha, Divya Dutta, Vikrant Massey, Arif Zakaria & Barun Chanda.

Story
Lootera is the story of Pakhi (Sonakshai Sinha), the daughter of a wealthy Bengali Zaminda (Barun Chanda). One day an archaeologist, Varun Shrivastav(Ranveer Singh) comes to Zamindar's village to excavate the temple grounds of the village. He is good looking, smart, polite and with his poetry knwoledge, he impresses the Zamindar & Pakhi. An innocent Pakhi easily fall in love with him. But on their engagement day Varun disapperes. Pakhi struggles to move on with her life, determined to forget Varun and their relationship. Until one day, when Varun returns under the most extraordinary circumstances.

Positives
Lootera is the best film of 2013 so far. No doubts on that! From story writing to direction to performance to cinematography to music to costume/sets,  Lootera is an Epic expereince. Vikramaditya Motwane's story telling & direction is just brilliant. It's really surprising to see how a one film old Motwane manages to create such a masterpiece outing like Lootera. Undoubtedly the Best Director of 2013!

Another pluspoint of the movie is outstanding music by Amit Trivedi. All songs have soulful lyrics b and placement of the songs are perfect. Sawar Loon, Shikayatein, Zinda & Monta Re are my personal favorites. Background score of the film is also excellent. Undoubtedly the Best Music of 2013!

Mahendra J. Shetty's cinematography is top class. The costumes and sets used in this film are eyecatching.

Now to the performances...
MARK MY WORDS----> Reserve all the Best Actress 2013 Awards for the Darling Of Bollywood's 100 Crore Club, Ms. Sonakshi Sinha. Sonakshi Sinha's acting as Pakhi is easily the best performance by an actress in recent years. Her acting especially in the emotional scenes & at the climax are just mindblowing. She looks drop-dead-gorgeous and fabulous as the vulnerable lovestruck girl. Every frame of Sonakshi is flawless and you just can't take your eyes from her frame. Her career best performance. Come On Sinha.... Say No To Dabangg/RowdyRathore kinda roles & be prepared for all the awards acceptance speech of 2013, Shotgun Junior!!!

You won't believe that Lootera is Ranveer Singh's third film of his career. It's very difficult for a 2 film old like Ranveer to portray the role of Varun, but his acting is terrific. A sincere & mature acting. A Good Future For Bollywood!

Divya Dutta is superb in a small role. Debutant Vikrant Massey is good. Arif Zakaria is ok. Adil Hussain delivers a stellar performance. Barun Chanda is outstanding.

Negatives

I don't find any minus points in Lootera. Yes, Lootera is not everyone's cup of tea. Some people may find it as little boring since the genre of this film is slow & classy. But if you are a genuine movie lover go watch and experience the Epic, Lootera!

Overall Lootera is undoubtedly the Best Film of 2013! At the box office film is all set to have a decent opening at the multiplexes and average to low in single screens(expected). But I'm sure Lootera will be loved for its content & class. An opening of 6-8crore with a weekend of 20-22cr weekend is on the cards and will be a profitable venture for the makers.

P:S: 2013's Best Film, Best Director, Best Music & Best Actress Awards = LOOTERA

Verdict - LOVE COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!!!

Rating - 4.5/5! LOOTERA IS EPIC!!!

Box Office Prediction - 50cr+
