^^ I absolutely agree. Valentine's day is the weirdest time to release a masala. The other movies at least have unusual story lines. Gunday seems such an obvious movie. Really don't think it will work. I want it to work though. I want both Gunday and Highway to work.

Gunday has chance of working as it does appeal to the indian audience, highway more tricky as its not something many would go for and also alia has done one movie and so she is still relatively unknown to the wider audience. Also the movie doesn't have a strong male lead which is important for a movie in india to do well.

I don't think valentine week will be an issue..gunday will do well. Ranveer is popular now, not many are gonna miss it. I don't think its a typical masala, it got a story.

well gunday isn't a big romantic movie but so aren't the other movies, HTP is a coming of age story, highway is a journey story and SKSE is about handling a marriage, so none of them are solely romantic, although all four of them have a love storyline in them.
And what I found funny about highway was when I looked on the comments on youtube when it was released, most comments were about being excited about ar rehmans music, a lot of them didn't care about the movie.



I know gunday isn't a romantic movie, it's masala, that's why I said it might do well. And it's the only movie releasing valentine's week, the other's aren't, so it doesn't matter if they're romantic or not, but for gunday it does. That's why I said it was weird timing.

True Gunday does have a story, and there is news that it has a big twist in the storyline to do with irfans character. Irfan khan being in the movie makes me believe its got a good story as irfan chooses his movies wisely.
And the songs seem very upbeat and chart topping and have good visuals aswell.

well its a good date to release on as people decide to watch a movie on valentines, and it does have a love story in it.

I hope it works. But the month is so packed, so I am not sure. I don't think it will work though. People will be just back from one Masala overdose in Jai Ho in January. So, very little chances of it working. Also, the release on Valentine's day is plain weird to me. Anyway, we will see how much buzz it creates and stuff.
Highway, I want it to work and if the music is a big hit, it may just work out. I think people will go for HTP and SKSE.

gunday is not a typical masala movie and it seems very different to jai ho, also the other movies like I said are a bit unusual for the wider indian audience. The indian audience likes song and dance, also gunday will appeal regionally as it is set in Kolkata.

and its not like couples will watch only love stories the whole week. Any good movie can do. Maybe the opening won't be good but it will get back on track the following weeks.
