Bheja beats Sunny, Priyanka |
|
|
In the making for quite some time as Deodhar Gandhi, Big Brother has only Sunny Deol's presence to show for it which is not enough to draw the audience any more.
Life Mein Kabhi Kabhi does little credit to its director Vikram Bhatt; the film is a failure at the box office. The low-budget Bheja Fry seems to have gone down well with multiplex metro audiences and will keep its investors happy. Trade pundit Vinod Mirani delivers his verdict on the box-office fate of the films.
