Match fixing with the IPL
By Behindwoods News Bureau.
May 16, 2008

Jannat

Set in the stormy world of cricket and match fixing, Jannat is a love story of a man torn between two options- the girl he loves and big money. Using India’s unofficial national sport and its biggest scandal as the backdrop, Jannat is ready to capitalize on the current cricketing euphoria created by

the IPL. Can a movie on cricket wean people away from the real game?

Coming onto a playing field that is nearly empty after a few very disappointing releases, Jannat stands very bright chances of making it big. Buoyed by a theme that has the potential to grab the eyeballs and the whole country in the grip of a cricket frenzy, Jannat does look like hit material. But of course, the movie has to be a well made one, no exceptions on that. Stars Emraan Hashmi and Javed Sheikh.

From Last Week

Bhoothnath

The Big B’s ‘bhooth’ act hasn’t set the box office on fire but it surely has managed to stem the horror run of Bollywood. Opening to a very average response, it has picked up over the week aided by the vacation crowd and the brand of a family entertainer. Will have to wait another week to enter the safety zone. Bigger things were expected!

Jimmy

Jimmy turned out to be the actual ‘bhooth’ of Bollywood over the past week, sending horror waves across the industry. The dream launch pad for Mithun Chakravorthy’s son has turned turtle and the talk is that such a tawdry product has not come out in recent times. A disastrous start for Mimoh.

Once again the IPL, now into the more gripping stage, has robbed cinema halls of audiences.

Sneak Preview:

Dhoom Dadakka

Looks like another full-length comedy strewn with a lot of below the belt stuff for the frontbenchers. Going by the way the other movies are slumping, this genre seems to be a safe one to go along with. Starring controversy queen Rakhi Sawant along with other comic veterans like Sathish Shah and Anupam Kher, the movie is not expected to create any great Dhoom at the box office.

Don Muthuswami

A fortnight after his son’s movie bombed at the box office, dad Mithun Chakravorthy hits theaters with Don Muthuswami. No, this is not another don movie. Yes, Mithun does play a don but not the regular one. This don has a strong comic streak. Look out for a few laughs.

Ghatothkach

Singeetam Sreenivasa Rao is back, this time with animation. After the encouraging success of Hanuman and Hanuman Returns, it is time for Ghatothkach. This one should be another fun filled children’s animation movie and in the last week of the summer vacations, the children will definitely enjoy this one. Being simultaneously released in 7 languages, the movie has music by Singeetam Sreenivasa Rao himself. A mythological animation fun ride.
