More news →Dhoom-2 slated for Nov. 24 release
It is well aware that the film 'Dhoom' produced by Yash Chopra with Bollywood Super Star Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Uday Chopra as heroes, Rimmi Sen and Isha Deol as heroines had taken the entire country by storm. With sequels proved to be the order of the day, and 'Krisshh' which came as a sequel to 'Koi Mil Gaya' created a sensation in business during the shoot, and became a big hit after its release. It had collected good revenue on par with several straight and top stars films. Meanwhile, the Telugu dubbed version of Dhoom is being released as Dhoom-2 with Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra, Aishwarya Rai, Bipasha Basu are in the lead. The film is going to be released on November 24 across the Andhra Pradesh.
'Dhoom-2, the best among sequels
The Producer of Dhoom-2 Aditya Chopra says, 'We expected that our film would be a big hit even before its release. The outcome is more encouraging than what we expected. It is running very successfully in centres where it was released. We released the film with 1500 prints across the world in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil languages. Not only in Hindi, the film is successful in south Indian languages as well.' He also added, 'Those who watched the first part of Dhoom had some expectations on the sequel and our film is above their expectations. Hence there has been a tremendous response. The way director Sanjay Gadhwi moulded it on the screen is quite novel and every frame is attracting the audiences. But for Hyderabad, the film was released in Telugu language at various places in Andhra Pradesh and it is getting very good response everywhere. To my knowledge, Dhoom-2 is the best among the sequels and there is no equivalent in the Indian film industry.'
Dhookudu team to fly to Switzerland
Mahesh Babu is currently involved in the shoot of his forthcoming flick Dhookudu in Srinu Vytla direction being held at Padmalaya Studios. A song is being canned on Mahesh and the leading lady of the film, Samantha in this schedule. The makers of the film have planned its next schedule in Switzerland and the Dhookudu team will fly to the place on 10th May to picturise a song and little talkie part. The film was earlier shot in Turkey and Gujarat. This romantic comedy entertainer is being produced by Ram Achanta, Gopichand Achanta and Anil Sunkara on 14reels entertainment. Thaman is scoring the music for the film. Dhookudu will release in the month of August.
Dhoom 2 upstages Don
Showbiz is like Politics. No permanent friends or enemies. Shahrukh Khan is realizing exactly the same at this very moment. Apparently Yash Chopra and son Aditya Chopra are taking their animosity with Shah to a different level. Two of the biggest Diwali releases this year will be Yash Raj's 'Dhoom 2' and Shahrukh's 'Don'. All the exhibitors of 'Krrish' (Yash Raj Films is distributing Hrithik's super duper saga) have been verbally booked for 'Dhoom 2' and this leaves very few exhibitors for 'Don'. And in the bargain, the fate of King Khan's big ticket will be affected badly. The feud between the two parties started when Shahrukh asked for his market price from Yash Raj Films. The ten year association started turning sour as Aditya Chopra had learned by now that he could make successful films even without Shahrukh. Aamir Khan was signed at his market price for 'Fanaa' which incensed Shahrukh. His favorite leading lady Kajol was signed opposite Aamir, upsetting King Khan even further. After being chucked out from Shimit Amin's film produced by Yash Raj Films in favor of Salman Khan, Shahrukh was at a loss of words. The schemer that he is, he just wormed his way back by easing out Salman from Shimit's film. No wonder Salman is upset with him. It seems Yash and Aditya Chopra are in a mood to teach a lesson to all the big and small stars of Bollywood. That if they can do it to the biggest of them all, then they can do it with anyone. So beware! MusicMazaa will keep a close watch on the Diwali fireworks and keep you updated about the same.
Dhoom 2 and Vivah available on MP3
Guess how are music companies working together to combat music piracy and decreasing sales of music albums? By coming up with original MP3s of the latest albums along with the regular music CDs. The latest to add the list are the MP3s of 'Dhoom 2' and 'Vivah' that have really set the sales rolling for the two films. Marked at half the regular price of an original music CD and comprising of 40-50 songs at an average, they are a double delight for the listener since they come with numerous other hits from the production houses. While 'Vivah' boasts of dozens of other Rajshri hits apart from the songs of 'Vivah', 'Dhoom 2' enhances the bouqet by including songs from YRF hits like 'Bunty Aur Babli', 'Salaam Namaste', 'Veer Zaara', 'Neal N Nikki' and many more. A few weeks back 'Dance Masti Forever' too came in a MP3 version and has been a big hit since then. One just hopes that the trend continues with many more forthcoming albums too.
Dhoom starcast introduces film's music
There is something peculiar happening around the strategy of YRF for promoting the music of 'Dhoom'. From the very first promo that has been unleashed for the film, the emphasis has been on action and thrills with just the theme music of 'Dhoom' playing in the background. Secondly, when the album hit the stands, there was not even a single song that was on air to bring the music into the limelight. It's a different matter though the music got picked up from the stands by itself due to the power of YRF banner, Pritam's hit run throughout the year, a powerful starcast and the buzz which the action promos have managed to generate. Now with less than a month to go before the film arrives on the screens, there is not even a single song on air yet. Instead, a new approach for bringing the film to the audience has been formulated by a "medley promo" created where video snippets from 5 songs from the film are shown with Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, Bipasha Basu and Uday Chopra introducing each of them. Each of them stares at you right from the screen and tells you about the fun and might of 'Dhoom'! An interesting bit is that each of the snippets is again purely in a visual format with just the tune of the song playing in the background rather than the song itself. Nevertheless, one doesn't really mind that since presence of Aishwarya and Bipasha in the promo are good enough reasons to revisit the promo multiple number of times and hence gear up for the mega release of the film on November 24th!
