    Grand Masti gets a whooping Rs 39.8 crore opening

    Grand Masti has a terrific weekend raking in a big moolah at the box office. The film, with huge support from single screens, has collected Rs 39.8 crore for its opening weekend. This is a sequel to the previous adult comedy Masti and the three friends are back together and this time they are coming together at their college reunion. The film stars Ritesh Deshmukh, Aftab Shivdasani and Vivek Oberoi.

     

    John Day has not been able to make a mark despite Naseeruddin Shah leading the cast. The film has managed to collect just about Rs 1.7crore for the first weekend.

     

    Horror Story, a grossly under publicised film, has managed to cross the Rs two crore mark in its first three days.

     

    Shuddh Desi Romance has had a good first week. A pleasant love story with a contemporary theme of live-in couple scared to commit through the institution of marriage, the film has collected Rs 35.7 crore for its first week.

     

    Zanjeer, much in news because of its copyrights controversy involving the writers of the original version and the production house, Prakash Mehra Productions, has turned out to be a damp squib, having collected just Rs 13.75 crore.

     

    Satyagraha, which failed to stir up the box office and collected Rs 51.7 crore in its first week, has added Rs 6.9 crore in its second week to take its two week total to Rs 58.6 crore.

     

    Madras Café has collected Rs 1.1 crore in its third week to take its three week tally to Rs 40.65 crore.

     

    Channai Express has added Rs 1.1 crore in its fifth week thus taking its six week total to Rs 200.5 crore.

  • Strings return to Bollywood with the song Charon taraf for John Day

    Strings return to Bollywood with the song Charon taraf for John Day

    The makers of John Day have unveiled the first song from this film, which stars Naseeruddin Shah and Randeep Hooda in the lead.

     

    Charon taraf is an intense song which is about human emotions like – loneliness, grief, loss and rage and will surely touch the heart! After a long time, here’s a video which is in sync with the song and is a pure visual delight.

     

    Especially the scene where Naseeruddin literally runs to save his life, one can feel the desperation. After lending music in films like Shootout At Lokhandwala and My Name Is Khan, Strings return to Bollywood with a bang with their latest offering.

     

    Speaking about the emotions in the song, veteran actor Naseeruddin and Randeep have hit the bulls’ eye. The Hindi-pop band has nailed it with this track and this is one track that shouldn’t be missed.
