Bombay Velvet and all the hullabaloo around its promotions!

April 23, 2015 Bolly-Freak

The much awaited Bombay Velvet is all set to release on May 15th. However, the surprising fact is that though the film stars a good deal of A listers, none of them are seen promoting the film, as is the trend nowadays.

Typically, Ranbir, Anushka, and Karan Johar should have been all over the place, promoting their much ambitious movie. On the contrary, Ranbir is holidaying in Maldives with his girlfriend and Anushka is busy with her Ad shoots.

News is that, Ranbir and Anushka do wish to start the promotions as soon as possible. The actors have also apparently freed their dates for the promotional activities. However, news is that Anurag believes in the 'less is more' strategy with this one.

A source mentions, "Anurag and Karan Johar seem very confident about the movie. They have shown the movie to friends and family and everyone has loved it." The source added, "There are some people in the team who are unhappy with the delay in promotions. We all know that is is important to sell a movie in today's scenario."

Well, do you agree that the BV team needs to be more aggressive with the promotions?

Whats still is all this?? showing nepotism friends they will clearly say the best about the movie because Ranbir is in it. Now they trying to promote the movie like that. You know there were always news coming up about BV its maybe their own PR. or others just to bash the movie. First they started to praise the chemistry between the leads and Kjo even cast them again. So many news about the kisses they had and also that the trailer is edited from Martin Scorces Editor. And some journalist who saw the material first were praising it to the high. After they showed everything it was just all hot air. Nothing impressive till now. Than the songs much worse. Than because of the delay the topic Cannes comes up. Which was also in the news but also just fizzled out. The actors arent really promoting it. Now coming up with different storys. I just only want that this movie releases as fast as possible. And everybody should get over it. Dont want to read anything anymore about BV. Because of all these articles i started to hate already this movie. The promos are not inviting to watch it in the theater and so bare us from this articles that family and friends liked it. Even 50 % of reviewers will praise it even if its bad. Nothing to expected from them also.

A welcome change that is. I don't like aggressive promotions. It's irritating to read 10 interviews with bizarre quotes of the same celeb on the same day.
