It was supposed to be a sure fire hit… it had everything going for it. An established and award winning director (Sanjay Leela Bhansali). Two hot newcomers (Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor), and two box office smashers (Salman Khan, Rani Mukherjee). But, what happened… was not expected at all.
Saawariya has been panned by the critics and harldy anyone is going to the cinema to watch it… even when the first screening was held, for cast and crew, the audience was yawning and leaving before the intermission. Salman Khan was one who left much much earlier, but that was for other reasons. But what do the parents make of this dismal flick… the parents of Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor… let's find out.
Anil Kapoor is currently not talking to the media, and is very disappointed with Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He didn't expect this kind of movie but he has taken heart from the fact that his daughter Sonam has been appreciated for her acting and that she has or will sign more movies very soon.
Rishi Kapoor is laughing it away, and is not showing much emotion. He has spoken to the media and has tried to put a positive angle on it. He has confirmed that his son Ranbir Kapoor will re-launch the RK banner. Ranbir is currently writing the script himself, he will star in the movie himself, and Rishi Kapoor will direct. Rishi should be more than happy because Ranbir is the only one good thing to come out of Saawariya.
