Will Golmaal break Krrish juggernaut?
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,July 07 2006]
Yashraj Films may still be ruing the fact that the dream run of 'Fanaa' was interrupted by 'Phir Hera Pheri' that turned out to be a major competition and suddenly became the first choice of the moviegoers, 2 weeks after 'Fanaa' released.
While 'Fanaa' created number of records in its first two weeks of release, 'Phir Hera Pheri' further rewrote history as it took a flying start all over while impacting 'Fanaa' most. This meant that this Aamir Khan starrer, which was looking strong for a 60 crore total would now be breathing its last at around 52-53 crore.
Now the same could happen in case of 'Krrish' also that has enjoyed historic collections all over the country. While the first week has been phenomenal, the second week looks strong too due to zero releases. With only 'Corporate' as a major competition this week, 'Krrish' has all the ammunition in place to enjoy a great 3rd week as well. But the situation may not be the same when it enters it's 4th week as it comes head to head with 'Golmaal', another comedy arriving on the scene after 'Phir Hera Pheri'.
Looking set for a bumper opening, 'Golmaal' is a multistarrer with Ajay Devgan in the lead that should be the first film to really challenge 'Krrish' at an all-India level. That's the reason why one sees a strong possibility of a 'Fanaa-Phir Hera Pheri' like situation resurfacing once again on July 14th when 'Golmaal', the sole release of the week, arrives!
