Raajneeti Reviews: First one up (ALL Reviews Here) - Page 15

@cho , i agree wit yu.. i dnt want to sound rude, bt kat ws n t at all good.. her dialogues seemed forced.. she ws unable to emote.. just my POV thou!

Well, if she wasn't "good" then I blame Prakash jha for that! After all he was the captain of the ship and from the interviews and stuff I was able to pick the fact that he didn't work that hard with Katrina.. I remember that incident that she narrated that they were supposed to shoot for one scene but instead they were shooting for another that day and Kat even volunteered to pay for the cancellation of the shoot so that she could prepare well for the scene. Jha should have known that Kat had trouble with Hindi and he should have worked harder with her!! but I guess he was more worried to finish the movie and stuff.. But, anyways.. its great that Katrina got a chance to work with such a great team of actors.. I'm sure she will gain from the experience.. but still I wish Prakash jha would have worked harder with her and extracted a better performance!! Soo.. a breakthrough performance still pending from Queen Kat.. aah!! Maybe some other director/movie then I guess!!

It may be a bitter pill to swallow for most people but considering sheer box-office clout among female actresses, there is no one to challenge Katrina right now. Most of the trade reports that I have read on Rajneeti is focused on the idea that if it weren't Ranbir-Katrina who were promoted so heavily in the promos, this film would have garnered an average to below-average opening. Call her a lucky mascot or a beautiful show-piece, but the evidence is pretty incontrovertible that Katrina is synonymous to box-office bonanza. And Prakash Jha was very astute to play his trump card with such wile and shrewdness.

Coming back to this movie, I am amazed by the fact that a movie with no reigning superstar Khan, a non-family-friendly and non-masala-entertainer genre, no superhit blockbuster music single, no opportunistic Bollywood tweets before it's release, no catchy, over-the-top promotional gimmick (like Ghajini haircuts for all or ShivSena fiasco) and finally almost no expectations from box-office analysts like Kmal Nahata (he declared it a flop even before its release) Rajneeti stands to be among the top 5 Bollywood grosser. Really amazing.

Katrina is the Asha Parekh of our times. She is very very lucky for the film period. Good for her.

some people just don't want to admit that katrina is the lucky mascot. audiences are drawn towards her like moth to a flame. she is definitley doing well and is good for the industry. if it weren't for ranbir and katrina, this movie would do average buisness. agree or not, the girl is made for bollywood.

just came back from Rajneeti....woow what a strong movie it was...it was intense, powerfull, impressive...it really left an impact on me!

Films like Raajneeti give hope to our Film Industry!

Raajneeti All Set To Emerge A Blockbuster Tuesday 8th June 2010 10.30 IST

Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network Raajneeti held up very well on Monday with around 6.25 crore nett business. This takes the four day business of the film to 40.25 crore nett. The film is set emerge a big blockbuster in India and even has a chance to do All Time Blockbuster business. The first week nett total should be in the 54-55 crore range and with no competition in week two the film will have a very healthy second week. North India is super strong with just 30% drop from Friday. Although its too early to tell, looking at the acceptance and trending of the film it would be no surprise if the finished with a lifetime nett total of around 90-100 crore. In terms of distributor share this would put it around the 50 crore mark with only Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, Gadar, Ghajini and Three Idiots ahead in the all time list.

Why do we criticize kat so much? I understand she has good luck but she is working hard too. Just having beauty doesn't bring you success. Entire Nation watches her movie and i don't remember when he last movie was flop, it was average but don't remember being flop.

AND YIKES!!! this movie is doing really good. I NEVER thought it would do this good. ROCK on Rajneeti team. I really watch to watch this movie.
