'Yeh Fassley' - Interesting film but inadequate publicity

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,March 03 2011]

With the advent of World Cup, Bollywood is pretty much looking at a dry season ahead with not even a single notable release for an entire month. In fact when there is one (or sometimes two) insignificant releases that take place practically every week, there is shortage of such software as well. In such times arrives 'Yeh Fassley' for which one genuinely feels that it deserved better.

This Anupam Kher starrer seems like an intriguing drama and the promo has managed to make a mark as well. However the film has been severely under promoted which would have a telling on the collections. In fact one wonders that even though the film is an Anupam Kher co-production, there has been no buzz generated for 'Yeh Faasley' which is bound to be severely affected due to near to nil publicity. Expect empty houses to grace the film when it releases this Friday.

This means that while 'Tanu Weds Manu' continues to earn money for second week in succession due to nil competition, releases from past like 'Patiala House' and to a little extent 'Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji' would be enjoying some add-on to the collections as well. Not that any additional moolah would change their box office verdict but whatever little comes in now would be an added bonus at the least and would keep the investors busy counting some more money.
