From Nowhere, Raksha Bandhan and Shamshera Become Talk of The Town

Mumbai, June 23 - There is a popular saying that you need just one big moment to shine through and well, that seems to be happening with two of the most-awaited Bollywood movies - Raksha Bandhan and Shamshera. ## The Akshay Kumar and Ranbir Kapoor starrers are among the most important upcoming Hindi films, which now seem to be potential winners at the box office. However, nearly a week before, both the movies were nowhere in the scene as there was hardly anyone talking about them. It looked like no one was interested in them. ## But things changed and from nowhere to becoming talks of the town - this all happened within a week, thanks to the top promos and posters of the movies. Talking about Akshay Kumar-fronted Raksha Bandhan, the movie is carrying a lot of reputation and it must work at the box office to keep that reputation unharmed.## Directed by Anand L Rai, the makers have been releasing the posters since last week and they are attractive, especially for the audiences who love to watch movies with the family. However, it was the trailer of the film, which has raised the expectations bar high, and suddenly, it is looking like an event film. It was an underdog earlier but now seems to be holding the advantage over Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chanddha, which will be released day and date on August 11 during Independence Day week. ## The Ranbir Kapoor-headed Shamshera is completely different from Akshay Kumar-starrer but it is equally carrying a lot of expectations. More than Ranbir Kapoor, the film is important for Yash Raj Films which has had three failures at the box office over the period of the last 8 months. Shamshera, slated to release on July 22, is the last film in YRF's current slot and it seems to be the biggest of them. ## Just like Raksha Bandhan, Shamshera too was looking for a dated film a week before. But a leaked poster and the teaser have worked wonders for it and now, it is seriously looking like a potential box office blockbuster. There is positive and loud chatter around this movie among the industry people and audiences, which wasn't a week before. ## While the overall box office fate of both the movies remains to see, one thing is sure both movies will take very good openings. And if the word of mouth is positive, then the makers have two blockbusters in their hands. ## Stay tuned...

We Have Had The Idea of KGF 3 Much Before KGF 2: Prashanth Neel

Bengaluru, June 23 - Director Prashanth Neel's KGF is arguably the biggest film franchise in India at the moment. There has been a genuine curiosity among the audiences about the KGF films and it keeps growing with each-passing day. ## KGF Chapter 2, which was released in April this year, is the 3rd highest-grossing Indian film of all time at the worldwide box office, and there is genuine excitement about its next chapter which has officially been announced. ## When KGF 3 was announced, many people thought the makers are forcibly pushing the franchise to make money as the story of the film ends with Rocky's death. However, director Prashanth Neel said that the making of KGF 3 is out of compulsion.## During a recent interview with a media house, Neel said (via Mirchi9), "KGF 3 is out of compulsion. People are in love with the franchise and the character. We are in a place where we have to make KGF 3. We have the idea for KGF 3. In fact, we have had the idea much before KGF 2". ## While the movie has been announced, the question about when it will begin remains unanswered. Director Neel is probably busy till the end of the next year. He is currently busy in Prabhas-fronted Salaar, and once he is done with it, he will kickstart Jr. NTR's next. We can only assume that KGF 3 will only start from 2024 if Neel doesn't take any other project apart from Salaar and NTR 31.## Stay tuned...

Raksha Bandhan Trailer Talk: Akshay Kumar Returns To His Strongest Zone

Mumbai, June 22 - The positive vibes return in the Bollywood camp, and this time, it's not about just one movie but an exciting lineup awaits to entertain the audiences. One of the most important films for the Hindi film industry is Akshay Kumar-fronted "Raksha Bandhan", which will open during Independence Day week. ## "Raksha Bandhan" is particularly very important for Akshay Kumar who has had a dull year so far with two back-to-back box office failures in the form of "Bachchhan Paandey" and "Samrat Prithviraj". However, it looks like he will be back in his old form with Anand L Rai-directorial and there are many reasons to justify this. ## The trailer of "Raksha Bandhan" was launched on July 21st and not so surprisingly, it turned out to be exactly what the industry needs at the moment. The trailer is a perfect mixture of comedy, humor, and drama which has worked at the box office more often than not.## The nearly 3 minutes long trailer falls in the same category which has given Akshay Kumar a lot of success over the last 5-6 years. Family drama film with the elements of comedy has always been Akshay's strength and he has once again shown his strength in the upcoming movie, going by trailer. ## "Raksha Bandhan" has a simple story of a brother and his 4 sisters, played by Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smrithi Srikanth. He is worried about their marriages and is willing to sell even his kidneys to make them settle in their lives. While performing his brotherly duties, he has his own love life for which he has to make a tough decision. ## The movie also marks the pairing of Akshay and Bhumi Pandekar who is already tried and tested on-screen couple in the superhit "Toilet Ek Prem Katha". The upcoming movie promises to be another solid outing for them. Overall, the trailer of "Raksha Bandhan" has left a huge impact on the audience which will surely bring a positive outcome at the box office, hopefully. ## The movie is produced by Akshay's Cape Of Good Films, and Rai's Colour Yellow Productions. The movie will be released in theaters on August 11. ## ## Stay tuned...

Shamshera Teaser Talk: Yash Raj Films Saved The Best For The Last?

Mumbai, June 22 - Yash Raj Films has been one of the biggest production houses in India, yet it has been very tough last few months for the studio. YRF has released three films since October last year but none of them could create magic at the box office as all three failed to attract the audience. ## The studio is now gearing up for its 4th release in the form of "Shamshera". It is the last film in YRF's current slot, and guess what, it promises to be the best of them. The teaser of this Ranbir Kapoor-fronted period action drama film was released on June 22, and surprisingly, it makes a solid punch. ## One of the biggest reasons for the failure of YRF's previous three films was that promos of them weren't not promising which couldn't create a positive first impression on the audiences. However, this time it looks like YRF has learned a lesson and released an exceptional teaser of "Shamshera", which has become the talk of the town. ## Everything about the "Shamshera" movie, from first look poster to teaser, has been up to the mark so far. The first look poster of the movie was revealed a couple of days ago and it was striking. And now, the teaser has further raised the expectations.## The biggest talking point of the teaser is the scale with which the movie has been made. The cinematography by Anay Goswamy looks spectacular. While this 1-minute 21 seconds teaser didn't reveal much it has surely got the attantion of the audience, and director Karan Malhotra deserves praise for this. ## The movie stars Ranbir Kapoor as Shamshera along with Sanjay Dutt as Inspector Shudh Singh, Vaani Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Saurabh Shukla, Ronit Roy, and Tridha Choudhury in key roles. In the movie, Sanjay Dutt plays Ranbir's arch-enemy and his showdown with Ranbir will be something to watch out for as they will ferociously go after each other with no mercy.## "Shamshera" will be released on July 22nd in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, also in 3D and IMAX 3D. The trailer will be released on June 24. ## ## Stay tuned...
