The most anticipated and awaited movie after the fiesta put up by the producer's guild against the multiplex owners is supposedly expected to fill the unwanted vacuum created among the lovers of hindi cinema.The movie's name NewYork(no..its not a hollywood movie,its an indian one and directed and acted by indian film fraternity only).I presume that the movie is titled in this fashion to generate revenues abroad too and create a niche among the cash cows(read NRIs).The production house is none other than Yashraj who has to its credits some of the whopping successes lik 'Chak De' and on the contrary also has duds lik 'laga chunri.. ','jhoom barbar...' to name the few..
The movie comes in after a period of 3-4 months during which the audience hav obviosuly been deprived of some whole some entertainment. The recession which had a contraptual effect on very living being in this world somehow failed to impact the Bollywood.It was during this time that the industry rolled out its biggest grosser 'Ghajini' which cemented the utmost perfectionist adverb prefixed to its director. Seriously the movie was good but there were many movies of this genre which could have done better but due to lewd marketing and districbution practises, many of them bombed or performed below par.
The next few months will be a 'Diwali' of movies..Diwali because the its the time of the year where every Tom,Dick or Harry wants to cash in the festivity and earn the maxima...Though a big budget movie like 'Sawariya' fell flat though being relesed on this day..The only audiences it got where the ones who could not not make to the SRK starrer OSO or could not afford to shell out the outrageously priced tickets of the multiplexes.The 1st day shows in multiplexes biggies lik PVR,Inox hav rates as high as 800-1000 bucks..Things might go worse if u decide to get the ticekt from a agent..Be ready to be ridden off some gross... :)
Well am not a very outgoin person and my visits to multiplexes hav been quite limited and had materialised for d 1st time when in the rush of seeing a elite multiplex and breaking the jinx, i went for a disastrous movie way back in the yr 2004.I was'nt earning then and the money came at my dad's expense..The ticket was worth a whopping Rs 120 but did not deserve anythin more than Rs 20( that too if ur frend forcibly pays for the ticket)..The screen was occupied by nothing more than 20-25 people ,most of them were couples who found this dark solitary place as a happening place to make love rather than showing their affection in public..Obviously when u have political parties like MNS and Shiv sena these love fledglings always scare to show their adult hood and their affection in public noadays.. :)
However the place where i live in has some tabs in place when the prices of tickets are concerned..None of the multiplexes can charge anything beyond the fixed price of Rs.100 and it should include all taxes.
So ppl living in Hyderabad are in certain words relieved of shelling out some gross money if they foray into seeing the movie 1st day itself...that means you can manage girlfriends at affordable rates here without bothering ur wallet much...lol..
Anyways am going in for the movie tomorrow. The music is not much of a humming one and i guess the songs will move me more after am done with d movie..There’s a lot of expectation with d movie considering d fact its coming from an elite production house and is directed by revered Kabir Khan of the ‘Kabul Express’ fame.He has touched a sensitive issue in that movie with utmost care and there were really fine performances by all the actors there..
Hope the night show does’nt leave me with a guilt feeling of wasting some 40-50 bucks.....:)
