This week saw the release of Siddharth Raj Anand’s much anticipated Bachna Ae Haseeno. Most reviewers seem reasonably satisfied with the movie and it could well be a good watch. An obvious interesting aspect would be the chemistry between Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor.

The other release was Rumi Jaffery‘s God Tussi Great Ho. A worn out concept is unlikely to be overshadowed by heavy duty cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra. The unanimous advice is to skip it.

Anees Bazmee‘s Singh is Kinng is still doing brisk business and the audience has yet again given a firm thumbs up to the Akshay KumarKatrina Kaif partnership.
