Dosti is box-office friendly |
|
|
Once again, Mahesh Manjrekar has failed at the box office. His fairy tale movie, Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi, could not charm children, and saw poor openings.
On the other hand, Suneel Darshan's Dosti: Friends Forever was recieved more warmly, and seems to have done well in north India.
Note: Films are ranked according to their release dates. |
