For
the past four years it has become a tradition of sorts for an
Akshay Kumar starrer to
release in an around the festive Eid period. The first film
which started the trend was Subhash Ghai's Abbas–Mustan
directed, Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor
starrer, AITRAAZ (2004). Next year (2005) saw Priyadarshan's
comic caper, the Akshay Kumar and John Abraham starrer GARAM
MASALA release. And the very next year it was the turn of
romcom, JAAN–E–MANN co–starring, Salman Khan hitting the
screens around the festive season.
As if it was not enough, last year's Eid once again saw
Priyadarshan return with his favourite hero, |
Akshay
Kumar in the comedy–horror flick, BHOOL
BHULAIYAA. Barring JAAN–E–MANN which
suffered at the hands of Shah Rukh Khan's
DON, all the remaining three above
mentioned projects were box–office
successes. However this year, fans of
Akshay Kumar will have to make do with his
still running
super–hit, SINGH IS KINNG, which (as per
trade sources), is expected to carry into
Eid with a reasonable number of prints.
And for others there are as many as three
interesting and
different films releasing around Eid. The
Sanjay Dutt–Imran Khan starrer, KIDNAP,
releases on the 1st of October. Gandhi
Jayanti (2nd October) will see Abhishek
Bachchan's DRONA and Nandita Das's
RAMCHAND PAKISTANI releasing world wide
across screens. |
