Surprisingly this date in the past had many big releases like KMG, Pardes, SIK and Chennai Express.


While GOW2 also released on this date.

So which movie would you rate as the best made on this date?

And how will you rank them:

My ranking:


1. Gangs of Wasseypur2: Well this movie is the one of the greatest movie ever made by BW. So I personally don't think the other movies released on this date are even in the same level. Whether it is the rise of Faizal, or Shamshad Alam trying to fool Faizal so he can enjoy launda naach or introduction of Definite and Perpendicular, or Sultan going on an merciless rampage or Ramadheer Singh's nalayak beta trying to get away from his dad's grip or that wonderfully stylish climax. The movie was not dull for even one moment, and had everything top notch from the music to direction to editing to screenplay to acting.

2. Koi Mil Gaya: Maybe not as crisp and advanced production value as HW sci-fi, but Koi Mil Gaya had its heart at right place, even though inspired by ET, KMG was an honest and heart touching movie from Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik did an outstanding job in carrying the movie's flaws.

3. Chennai Express: Yes it was not a good movie by any stretch but I enjoyed it throughout and still catch it even today whenever it is on television. An entertaining plot, a try hard yet somewhat funny SRK and a great performance by Deepika is enough for me.
Singh is Kingg: Another not so good movie, I will not lie, I still laugh out loud when the movie is being played.
(5) Entertainment: This movie was well meh. Few entertainment moments but overall a poor product. (6) Pardes: Script was really biased towards Americans and NRI with the OTT Mere Bharat Mahaan theme. Movie if released in present day, it would have been a disaster. Only redeeming quality scenes: when SRK first comes to India and the hilarious encounters with Mahima and the kids, Mahima looked nice, SRK-Amrish have good chemistry and of course the excellent music. Hiw would you rank/rate??

I'm not a huge fan of GOW series.

Here it goes

Pardes is amongst my childhood favs so it ranks on top
GOW 2 which was more thrilling finish than the first.
Singh is King is one of my fav masala films.
Koi Mil Gaya was fun back in primary school days

Rest I am not a huge fan. CE has nice visuals and Entertainment had some likeable humour and Veere Di Wedding song

@Kalank: GOW and GOW2 are same movies not prequel and sequels.
They are actually same movie divided in two parts because nobody was gonna screen a five hour movie.
Hence GOW ending was more like the scene before interval and not the ending.

GOW 2 is on a completely different level

The rest

Pardes is boring as shit. Lovely album, Meri Mehbooba, yeh dil, nahi hona tha, do dil.
KMG is made for 3 year olds.
SIK was an embarrassment. Teri ore & the title track were good.

So by default, CE is number 2 I guess. It was quite entertaining and funny.

Yeah I know it was divided into 2. I just liked 2nd half more for the scope of acting they showed. As it was more Nawaz's show
