Prateik fails again in Ek Deewana Tha
Prateik's latest offering Ekk Deewana Tha got trashed by the critics and failed to excite the junta.
This young actor who showed tremendous promise in two of Aamir Khan's home productions Jaane Tu ya Jaane Na and Dhobhi Ghat has delivered duds after that.
His My Friend Pinto and Ekk Deewana Tha have both met indifference at the box office.
The boy himself has also been trashed for sleep walking through his films.
Says a trade analyst, Ekk Deewana Tha barely managed 60 odd lakhs on day one. It is a very bad film.''
Incidentally the industry is wary of film titles starting with Ek. Recently Ek Main aur Ekk Tu got a lukewarm response whereas Ekk Deewana Tha hasn't taken off.
Says a producer-distributor, Eklavya, Ek aur Ek Gyarah and several such films have failed. Perhaps the exceptions to the rule are Ek Phool Do Mali; Ek Duuje Ke Liye and Ek Hi Bhool all yesteryear films.''
