Ta Ra Rum Pum sings a sad tune
|
|
Yash Chopra's Ta Ra Rum Pum was one of the biggest summer releases, but surprisingly, the film failed to enjoy the usual Yash Raj success at the box office.
Instead, it was not much appreciated by the audiences, and saw a poor opening.
Trade pundit Vinod Mirani delivers his verdict on the box-office fate of the films.
Note: Films are ranked according to their release dates. The thumbs ups and downs reflect rediff's views.
