Since last few months, one hot topic of discussion in the distribution circle is the price being fetched by 'Jaaneman', especially in the Mumbai territory.
It is a known fact that Mumbai is the hottest and most cash rich territory when it comes to flow of money. Hence there have been speculations galore about the final price at which 'Jaaneman', a film that reunites Sajid Nadiadwala, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar, the winning combo of HIT 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'!
The figures quoted have ranged from 4 crore to 8 crores over last few months but as per distribution sources, the final price has been pegged between 7-8 crore, an astronomical amount nevertheless. The distribution house to do this is 'Ashtavinayak Films' that has made a steady progress in the least few years since it entered the distribution circuit as a new player.
The market has boomed over last few weeks with first 'Fanaa' and now 'Phir Hera Pheri' garnering record collections. Factors like intense publicity, good quality of films and mushrooming multiplex screens have all played a major role in pushing people out of their homes and enter theatres. Things only look HOT in weeks to come as biggies like 'Krrish', 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna', 'Omkara', 'Jaaneman', 'Dhoom - II' and 'Don' arrive one after another, each carrying a potential to be bumper blockbusters!
