    National awarded films of 2011 on show from 1 June

    NEW DELHI: The short film ‘Red Building where the sun sets‘ in English directed by Revathy and the feature ‘Deool‘ in Marathi directed by Umesh Vinayak Kulkarni will be screened at the opening tomorrow of the public screenings of the recipients of the 59th National Film Awards for 2011.

    While Revathy‘s film has won the award for family values, the Marathi film has won three awards: best film, best actor and best dialogues. Both directors will be present.

    Veteran filmmaker and author Vijaya Mulay and Information and Broadcasting Ministry Joint Secretary (Films) Khurshid Ahmed Ganai will be present at the inauguration.

    The screenings of the other films will be held from 2 to 10 June at Sirifort Auditorium II in the capital.

    The screenings will include the showing of ‘The Dirty Picture‘, which became controversial because of its proposed telecast despite the fact that it had an ‘Adult only‘ certificate. The film will be screened on 8 June at 2 pm.

    There will be three shows every day at 10.30 am, 2 pm and 5.30 pm and most screenings will be one short film followed by a feature, except in cases where the short film is of full length.

    Desi Boyz collects Rs 262 mn at BO

    MUMBAI: Desi Boyz stayed below par at multiplexes and though marginally better at single screens, its final three day tally is disappointing. Its unfair ‘adult‘ tag may also have cost the film some of the business. With a slight improvement on Sunday over its Friday opening, the film ended its weekend netting Rs 262 million at the box office.

    Meanwhile, Rockstar – in its second week, fell far short of the expectations of the ones in a hurry to a hit as it slides drastically after its opening weekend; adding just Rs 115 million in the next days to its opening weekend collections of Rs 325 million, taking its two week tally to Rs 555 million.

    Ra.One added a symbolic Rs 3 million to its total taking it to Rs 1.07 billion.
