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.'
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 2 Advance Booking is a Record
'The entire weekend for 'Dhoom 2'was sold out on Tuesday itself. Only five tickets are left for a Sunday eleven o clock night show which I plan to watch with my friends,' says Shonali Shrofff of Fame Group of Multiplexes. 'It is undoubtedly the biggest advance booking of the year,' she added. The recent trend of advance booking starting on the Sunday instead of Wednesday has seen an unprecedented response in case of big films like 'Fanaa', 'Krrish', 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna' and 'Don'. But if Shonali Shroff is to be believed then 'Dhoom 2' has broken all earlier records. Girish S Wankhede, Manager Public Relations for Cinemax Group of Multiplexes emphatically states that all shows are totally house full. 'The advance booking is tremendous,' he says. Devang Sampat, GM, Marketing and Sales, Cinemax says that the reason for such opening is the trust people have in 'Mr Perfectionist' Aditya Chopra. 'Moreover the starcast is such that it can't get bigger than this,' he added. Yashraj Films had started the trend with 'Fanaa' of getting a higher chunk of the ticket sales figures from the multiplexes. Vinod Chopra successfully adapted the same module with 'Lage Raho Munnabhai'. There have been rumours that Yashraj Films once again tried to get a bigger share of the pie from the multplexes before the release of 'Dhoom 2' but it hasn't been verified as no one is willing to talk. This correspondent had spoken to Shonali Shroff of Fame Multiplexes a day before 'Fanaa' was about to be released. She had said then that Fame is still not sure about releasing 'Fanaa' due to the prevailing uncertainty on revenue sharing. But on being asked today if a similar situation arose with 'Dhoom 2' she was prompt in saying, 'We have very good relations with Yashraj Films. There's no problem at all.' 'Dhoom 2' is also setting another record in terms of number of screens showing the same film in a particular multiplex. You can imagine how big a release it is by the following numbers: Fame Adlabs, Andheri: 18 shows per day Fame Malad: 21 shows per day Fame Kandivali: 14 shows per day Cinemax, Versova: 20 shows Cinemax, Sion: 8 shows Cinemax Kandivali: 12 shows Cinemax Mira Road: 9 shows Cinemax Wondermall, Thane: 12 shows Cinemax Eternity Mall: 13 shows Cinemax, Andheri single screen: 4 shows Cinemax Nasik: 9 shows In a year that has seen huge money spinners like 'Lage Raho Munnabhai', 'Krrish', 'Fanaa' and 'Rang De Basanti', there's every possibility that 'Dhoom 2' shall be the icing on the cake of a great year for the Hindi Film Industry. Stay tuned to Musicmazaa for the 'Dhoom 2' review first thing tomorrow and a video of the public opinion this weekend.
