Bollywood Calendar of Movies in 2011 |
The Year 2010 was pitched to see some of the biggest hits but alas! it just saw one (Dabanng) or may be two (Golmaal 3).
So what are the ones that failed miserably despite being promoted extensively?
Veer- A Salman Khan-Anil Sharma dud, Salman more than coped up for the miserable story he has written with Dabanng in the year’s second half.
Teen Patti- Despite containing two of the finest actors from the last century (Ben Kingsley and Amitabh Bacchan) from both Hollywood and Bollywood, none even bothered to notice this flick.
Kites- Could have been a wonderful launch pad for Hrithik into Hollywood. But, why did you forget the Indian audience Roshan Sr.?
Raavan- Mani Ratnam- A.R.Rahman-Aishwarya Rai-exotic locales, nothing could save this Mani Ratnam directorial. nuf said.
Anjaana Anjaani- Yet another film of RK bit the dust at the B.O. Except for the opening weekend, people remained anjaana-anjaani from the theatres screening the film.
Action Replayy- A partial lift from the Hollywood comedy Back to the Future, well the live action went missing completely. Vipul Shah followed up last year’s failure (London Dreams) with another.
Guzaarish- When will Sanjay Leela Bhansali stop painting a canvas and start directing something for the celluloid? The finest performance by Hrithik to date went begging.
Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey- Ashuthosh Gowarikar is having casting problems as well as adoptation problems. Harman last year and Abhishek this year. If it was Kimball Ravenswood in 2009, it was Do and Die this year.
Apart from the above, there were movies like Badmaash Company, Lafangey Parindey, Raktha Charitra, Aisha, Break ke Baad and Hissss that had a dismal run at the BO.
The Year 2010 is almost over. While we cherished a few movies, we also bashed a few left, right and centre. Now that it’s a thing of past, lets look forward to the future 2011. What can the audience expect from Our Bollywood in 2011?
Welcome The New Year 2011 in Bollywood.
January 2011 would see the release of three big films for sure. The first in line is Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan starrer, “No One Killed Jessica”, then there is the Deol parivar’s, “Yamla Pagla Deewana” and the very talented Mrs. Aamir Khan aka Kiran Rao’s Dhobi Ghat. The trailers of these films are already on air and are creating quite a stir already.
February would see the release of the multi talented Vishal Bharadwaj’s Saath Khoon Maaf with Priyanka Chopra in a negative role for the second time in her career.
March will see the release of Abhishek Bachchan starrer Game which is being produced by Farhan Akhtar. Abhishek is going to follow up his March release with Dum Maro Dum in April which is being directed by Rohan Sippy.
April will see the release of Akshay Kumar and Sonam Kapoor starrer Thank You, Akshay’s second film with Anees Bazmee after Welcome.
May will see the release of three big films- Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara which has got Hrithik in it, Ranbir’s Rockstar directed by Imtiaz Ali and Salman Khan’s Ready with Asin. This month gets interesting as all the three films are being released on the same date. Also, Saif Ali Khan is planning to release his pet project Agent Vinod in the same month too.
Well the first half of the year is sure to see these releases, while the rest yet unscheduled are some pretty heavy ones.
Shahrukh Khan will have both Ra.One and Don 2 releasing next year during the months of November and December. Hrithik’s Agneepath remake is scheduled towards the end of next year as well and so is Akshay Kumar’s Joker.
Salman will be seen with Kareena in My Love Story. Kareena will be doing a film with Imran Khan- Short Term Shaadi, a KJo production. Imran is also doing a film with Katrina titled Mere Brother ki Dulhan under the Yash Raj banner. Katrina would be seen in Dostana-2.
Then, there is the animated version of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai- Koochie Koochie Hota Hai. Also, there is Ranbir Kapoor’s Barfee with PC and the Goaian beauty Ileana.
