Midweek: 'Billu' picks up during weekend, but dips on Monday
| Cast | Plusses | Minusses | Verdict | |
Billu | Shah Rukh Khan, Irrfan Khan, Lara Dutta, Om Puri, Rajpal Yadav, Rasika Joshi | Well-made film with an excellent emotional ending | Could've done away with a few songs | After a slow start, picked up on Saturday [good] and Sunday [excellent]. But Monday saw a dip in business |
Dev D | Abhay Deol, Mahi Gill, Kalki | A few individualistic scenes and tuneful music | Second hour loses focus. Gets too abstract | Best at some multiplexes of big centres. Second weekend has seen a decline in business |
Luck By Chance | Farhan Akhtar, Konkona Sen Sharma, Rishi Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Juhi Chawla, Isha Sharwani, Sanjay Kapoor, Hrithik Roshan [sp. app.] | Presents the inside view of the film industry remarkably | Difficult to find | Flop |
The Stoneman Murders | Kay Kay Menon, Arbaaz Khan, Rukhsaar, Vikram Gokhale, Virendra Saxena | An interesting plot, with a gripping second hour | End is not too convincing | Dull weekend |
Jugaad | Manoj Bajpai, Hrishitaa Bhatt, Vijay Raaz, Govind Namdeo | Good idea | Director and writers make a complete mess | Poor weekend |
