Amitabh Bahchcan , Deepika Padukone and Irfan Khan starrer movie has collected over Rs 56.02 crores at the Box Office since its release.

According to a senior trade analyst, the movie has been a smashing hit overseas too with a collection of 4.3 million dollars.

Big B, who is basking in the glory of the success is overwhelmed with the love and response from the innumerable fans.

The Shoojit Sircar movie, which released on May 8, 2015 is doing exceptionally well at the big screens.

Ali Zafar to produce his dream project 'Deosai'

Karachi: Ali Zafar has announced that he is all set to produce and act in his dream project titled ' Deosai'.

The 'Kill Dil' actor, who had always desired toproduce a feature film, will now make his dream come true with this film which will be set in the northern areas of Pakistan and shot on real locations, the Express Tribune reported.

Zafar said that he is thrilled to begin a new venture of making a film that can make a difference and will be remembered for a long time for their content besides aiming to be successful commercial ventures.

The 34-year-old Pakistani singer's dream project will be directed by Imran Babur, one of Pakistan's most respected names in visual storytelling.

The movie is scheduled to go on the floors by the end of summer 2015 and is set to hit theatres by mid-2016. 

Deepika's 'Piku' overshadows Ranbir's 'Bombay Velvet'

New Delhi: Ranbir Kapoor-starrer "Bombay Velvet" has failed to displace Deepika Padukone's simple, subtle and meaningful act as a dutiful daughter in "Piku", box office figures suggest.

"A colossal flop", "a debacle", "a disaster" are some of the verdicts by film trade analysts on Anurag Kashyap's high-budget drama "Bombay Velvet", which is set in the Bombay of the 1960s and about a man who wants to make it big in life at any cost.

The film has earned a little over Rs.16 crore in its opening weekend.

Released on May 15, the film, which also stars Anushka Sharma and has marked the acting debut of Karan Johar, only managed to mint Rs.5.20 crore on its opening day and Rs.5.10 crore and Rs.5.80 crore on Saturday and Sunday respectively.

Its weekend total amounts to Rs.16.10 crore, according to trade expert Taran Adarsh, who on Twitter called the film a “debacle”.

"It's very bad. 'Bombay Velvet' earned just 16.25 crore. That should have been the day 1 collection instead of the weekend collection," trade analyst Komal Nahta told IANS.

"But you can't compare 'Bombay Velvet' to other films because of its budget of Rs.108 crore. With that amount, it should have collected Rs.15 crore on day 1. The film is a colossal flop," he added.

Another film expert, Vinod Mirani said "'Bombay Velvet' is a disaster".

However, Kashyap has no regrets that the audience is not finding a connect with his film, which has been his dream project since nine years.

"A lot of people do not connect with it and a small number of people did... Maybe our experimenting with the narrative didn't work for most but I firmly believe in the film,” he posted on his Facebook page.

The one film which has continued its success story is Shoojit Sircar's slice-of-life entertainer "Piku", which has Amitabh Bachchan, Irrfan Khan and Deepika telling an endearing family tale through their lovable characters.

“Piku” is running successfully at the cinemas and has minted Rs.14.60 crore in its second weekend, which takes its total collection to Rs.56.02 crore. In its opening weekend, it minted over Rs.25 crore.

Also, the film is being tagged as a hit overseas as it has earned $4.3 million (Rs.27.34 crore).

In fact, Adarsh has called “Piku” the “BIGGEST HIT of 2015 in Overseas”.

As far as the future of “Bombay Velvet” and "Piku" on the box office is concerned, it will be decided by Kangana Ranaut and R. Madhavan-starrer “Tanu Weds Manu Returns”, which has quite a positive buzz about it.

Directed by Anand L. Rai, the film, which stars the same cast from 2011 film “Tanu Weds Manu”, will release on Friday.

Beijing: A grand premiere of the Chinese dubbed version of Aamir Khan-starrer Hindi entertainer ‘PK’, releasing on May 22, is scheduled for Wednesday. The event will be attended by the superstar himself, along with several of his fans in the region.

The premiere will be held at the Shanghai Art Center.

‘PK’, which released worldwide on December 19 last year will experience one of the widest releases for an Indian film in China. It will hit over 3,500 screens.

The film will be Ajay’s second directorial venture.

The film’s shoot has been pushed owing to unsuitable weather conditions at the Canadian mountains which were one of the locations to be shot at.

Ajay is now focussing on ‘Dhrishyam’, a remake of Malayalee film by the same name.

Ajay will reprise the character originally essayed by Mohanlal. The film directed by Nishikanth Kamath will feature Shriya Saran and the very talented Tabu.

Movie Review: 'Kuch Kuch Locha Hai' - Avoid please!

Mumbai: Devang Dholakia's "Kuch Kuch Locha Hai", touted as a sex comedy, is in fact a large-scale mindless Gujarati drama on celluloid, packaged like a never-ending Balaji Telefilms soap, with skin show and cheap, ineffective thrills galore.

The story revolves around Praveen Patel (Ram Kapoor) aka PP, a middle-aged Gujarati shopkeeper settled in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He lives with his dramatic and stereotypically loud Gujarati wife Kokila Patel (Suchita Trivedi), whom he lovingly calls KoKodile and musician son, Jigar Patel (Navdeep Chabbra).

Like most NRIs, PP is besotted by Bollywood and in fact has a quirky obsession for the Bollywood 'sex bomb' Shananya (Sunny Leone).

How PP manipulates his way through to fulfil his dream for a date with Shanaya, forms the crux of this long and convoluted tale.

Unfortunately, the premise is staid and it's treatment obnoxious. Most of the scenes are tackily canned. The direction is; careless, on the face close and upfront and theatrically projected.

On the performance front, though over-the-top, Suchita Trivedi as Kokila Patel and Mehul Buch as Chanpa Patel, PP's friend, are the only two, who stand out. There is some element of sincerity in their performances. They are believable characters.

Sunny Leone is there for the oomph factor and she delivers uninhibitedly in 'full' measure, without any qualms.

Ram Kapoor as the stout PP with a moronic smile and constipated look, just hams his way through his performance. Once claiming to be a method actor, he now delivers, just as he does in every TV serial -- a lacklustre performance. With buffoonery in most of his scenes, he is an eyesore in this film.

Equally unbearable, are Navdeep Chabbra as PP's son Jigar and Evelyn Sharma as Jigar's girlfriend Naina. They are a mismatched couple. This oddity is fairly noticeable in the scenes that they are together.

The script is packed with frivolous, laugh-by-the-minute gags that are below mediocre in presentation and projection. The characters are cardboard thin with no depth or graph and the dialogues too are oft heard, cliched with Bollywood references.

The music is passable and the background score rendered with techno beats is too loud and ear blasting.

This film is a highly avoidable, unless you happen to be a Ram Kapoor fan.

'Welcome 2 Karachi' finds new release date

New Delhi: 2015 is coming out to be a great year for Bollywood releases, adding to the list Arshad Warsi-Jackky Bhagnani starrer `Welcome 2 Karachi` is the talk of the town.

The Ashish R Mohan film was earlier scheduled to release a day ahead of Aanand L Rai's 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns'.

Producer Vashu Bhagnani took to Twitter to announce the movie's new release date.

The Shoojit Sircar directorial which is about the relationship between a Bengali cranky father and his daughter, was released on Wednesday, 25 March.  

‘Piku’ review: You will fall in love with Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Irrfan Khan!

Some people are blessed with the talent of narrating a story on celluloid with incredible beauty. And Shoojit Sircar’s ‘Piku’ starring Amitabh Bachchan , Deepika Padukone and Irrfan Khan is one such masterpiece, which will certainly not fail in striking an emotional chord with the viewers. After ‘Vicky Donor’, Shoojit has come back to the family fold with a story that beautifully meanders through the finer nuances of the relationship between an unusual father-daughter duo.

Bhaskor Banerjee (Amitabh Bachchan) is a Bengali, based in the Delhi’s Chittaranjan Park with his roots deeply soiled in his hometown – Kolkata. His bizarre passion and obsession for constipation drives his only daughter Piku (Deepika Padukone) crazy.

30-something Piku is sandwiched between her duty towards her father and herself. Her father’s constant interference in every little affair (even the ones related to domestic chores) leaves her completely exhausted.

She co-owns an organisation along with her business partner Syed (Jisshu Sengupta) but has little time to focus on her work because of her father’s “potty” related issue.

An adamant person that Bhaskor is, he gets his “independent” daughter to do things that he insists on. And thus a road trip to the city of joy begins from Delhi. Thanks to Rana Chaudhry (Irrfan), the owner of a travel agency, who is perhaps the only vehicle provider in town to withstand the tantrums posed by Bhaskor and his ‘grumpy’ daughter, who are indeed (unfortunately) his regular clients.

Rana, Piku, Bhaskor, Bhudan ( Bhaskor’s domestic help) and the potty seat chair ( loving tagged as Singhasan meaning throne by Rana) are on board the four-wheeler, which speeds through the highway connecting the capital and Kolkata.

As the tiresome road trip begins, Rana and Piku play hide-and-seek with their emotions for each other. It begins with “I can’t stand you” and eventually blooms into a relationship that needs no introduction.

With a legend like Amitabh Bachchan and a pro like Irrfan on board, you are bound to see some matchless performances on display. And joining the league of “method actors” is Deepika Padukone. The dimpled lady has indeed evolved as an actor and is certainly going to grow stronger with time. Veteran Raghubir Yadav (though has a very minute role) is fabulous. Senior actress Moushami Chatterjee, who plays Piku’s aunt is typically Bengali and adorable.

Shoojit Sircar’s love for his roots is evident from the way he lays emphasis on one’s roots. This sequence featuring an otherwise difficult Bhaskar substantiates the observation - once Bhaskar reaches Kolkata, he rediscovers the little joys of life. He pedals through the by-lanes of the city, enjoys the local savouries and does things that is least expected from a man of his temperament- live life to the fullest.

Rana and Piku’s subtle love story too has been beautifully and softly told.

The cinematographer has brilliantly captured the essence that was required to lay justice to requirements of the story. The shot, especially the one that captures the indescribable beauty of the Hooghly river during sunset is worth a mention.

Dialogues are natural and hilarious. Music is soothing and pleasant.

In totality, ‘Piku’ is a wonderful family film, which will certainly make you wear a broad smile.

Moustachioed look in 'Bombay Velvet' was emotional for Karan Johar

Panaji: Karan Johar's respect for actors who sport a fake moustache in films has grown manifold ever since he had to flaunt one himself for his role as a villain in "Bombay Velvet". He found it "annoying", but says it was an emotional experience as it reminded his mother of his late father Yash Johar.

As Khambatta in the Anurag Kashyap directorial, Karan wears a flamboyant and debonair look. The moustache adds to the panache of his get up.

Talking about it, he told IANS here: "I would never keep a moustache! And the fake moustache... My 'izzat' (respect) for actors who stick it everyday on sets, has increased. It is annoying and irritating."

But there was one reason why he didn't mind wearing it.

"Strangely, it reminded my mother of my dad. He used to have a moustache, and I got very emotional about resembling him. So, I was happy about that, and thought I should bear with the torture," he added in a lighter vein.

In "Bombay Velvet", Karan stars alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma, in a story set in the 1960s. The film's trailer exudes vintage charm, as aimed by the art direction and costume direction of the project.

‘Piku’: The countdown begins

Mumbai: Touted as a family comedy film, ‘Piku’ starring Deepika Padukone, Irrfan Khan and Amitabh Bachchan is all set to hit the silverscreen this Friday.

Directed by Shoojit Sircar, the film revolves round the life of a father-daughter duo, which is interestingly unusual. The film will also see a new on screen pair as Irrfan will romance Deepika for the first time.

The trailer and the songs of the film are already a hit and it is just a matter of time, when the Box Office too will declare its verdict.

The dialogue promos too have received rave reviews and it will be interesting to see what the film has in store for us.

'Brothers' to hit screens on August 14

Mumbai: The date to witness all the action and bromance of Dharma Productions' "Brothers" has been set for August 14, on the eve of Independence Day.

“The Producer-Director duo of #Agneepath return with #Brothers on 14th August. Excited much,” read a post on official Twitter account of the film. 

Directed by Karan Malhotra, the film stars Akshay Kumar, Sidharth Malhotra, Jacqueline Fernandez and Jackie Shroff. Filmmaker Karan Johar is co-producing the film.

The film is an official Hindi adaptation of Hollywood film "Warriors" and it tells the story of two estranged brothers.

The release date doesn't come as a surprise. In the past, Aditya Chopra offered a clear window for "Brothers" by pushing the release date of his Shah Rukh Khan-starrer film "Fan" forward. 

‘Singh Is Bling’: Look who is going to play Akshay Kumar’s mommy

Mumbai: Akshay Kumar – Bollywood’s favourite Punjabi munda – will be seen sharing screen space with none other than veteran actress Rati Agnihotri in ‘Singh Is Bling’, reports suggest.

Agnihotri will be playing mother to Akshay in the film which will be helmed by dancing legend-turned-filmmaker Prabhudheva.

This on-screen mother-son duo will certainly look real as both are Punjabis and will bring out the essence of Punjabi-ness in their characters that they play with elan.

Reports further suggest that cricketer Yuvraj Singh’s father- Yograj – will essay the role of Akki’s father in the film.

With three hardcore Punjabis on board, the film is bound to be a treat to lovers of Punjab and diehard fans of Khiladi Kumar.

Nostalgic Shraddha Kapoor celebrates two years of ‘Aashiqui 2’
