March
While
the
month
of
March
began
with
the
release
of
Atithi
Tum
Kab
Jaoge?,
Road,
Movie,
Rokkkk
&
Thanks
Maa,
the
others
that
followed
were
Right
Yaaa
Wrong,
Hide
&
Seek,
Na
Ghar
Ke
Na
Ghat
Ke,
Do
Dilon
Ke
Khel
Mein,
Swaha
&
Trump
Card.
Recent
releases
also
included
Shaapit,
Love
Sex
Aur
Dhokha,
Lahore
and
Idiot
Box.
However,
there
hasn't
been
much
respite,
as
far
as
release
calendar
is
concerned
with
weeks
to
follow
being
quite
jammed
packed
as
well,
next
week
seeing
half
a
dozen
releases
-
Hum
Tum
Aur
Ghost,
Well
Done
Abba,
Mittal
V/s
Mittal,
Prem
Kaa
Game,
The
Great
Indian
Butterfly
and
It's
a
Man's
World.
April
With
a
stuffed
March
out
of
way,
one
would
have
expected
that
April
would
be
lighter
due
to
IPL
getting
into
a
further
exciting
stage.
Well,
the
rush
is
lesser
here
but
still
seeing
larger
number
of
film
releases
than
a
regular
month.
2nd
April
would
mark
the
arrival
of
Sadiyaan,
Tum
Milo
Toh
Sahi
and
Pankh.
The
week
to
follow
becomes
even
more
challenging
with
Prince,
Jaane
Kahan
Se
Aayi
Hai,
Apartment
and
Maalik
Ek
fighting
it
out.
Says
Milap
Zaveri,
the
young
man
who
makes
his
debut
as
a
director
with
Jaane
Kahan
Se
Aayi
Hai,
"I
am
confident
of
my
film
because
it
is
the
first
of
its
kind
love
story
between
a
boy
from
Earth
(Riteish)
and
a
girl
from
Venus
(Jacqueline).
There
is
loads
of
comedy,
music
and
romance!
Also
9th
April
is
lucky
for
Riteish
and
me
as
our
first
huge
hit
Masti
(which
was
written
by
Milap)
had
released
on
9th
April
in
2004."
Tanushree
Dutta,
who
is
the
leading
lady
in
Apartment,
is
also
extremely
confident.
"If
a
film
is
good
then
audience
will
certainly
go
to
watch
it
in
theatres.
I
am
very
positive
about
my
film.
In
any
case
cricket
and
movies
are
two
different
things.
Yes,
in
the
past
there
have
been
instances
when
films
haven't
released
during
the
cricket
season
but
then
that
could
be
because
they
were
not
supposed
to
be
released
then.
Those
who
love
movies
will
go
for
them
regardless
of
cricket
or
any
other
event."
This
is
the
reason
why
the
makers
of
Phoonk
2,
Paathshaala
and
Muskurake
Dekh
Zara
aren't
overtly
worried
about
arriving
on
16th
April.
The
week
to
follow
though
just
has
a
single
release,
Bird
Idol,
which
is
an
animation
flick.
However,
once
IPL
is
through,
Bollywood
is
all
set
for
a
big
weekend
ahead
with
Housefull
releasing
on
30th
April.
No
wonder,
trade
is
hopeful
this
time
around.
Says
a
trade
follower,
"Amongst
three,
four
or
five
releases
which
are
hitting
the
screens
every
week,
there
is
at
least
one
notable
release
which
is
expected
to
take
in
moolah.
Now
this
is
a
far
better
situation
than
the
one
we
evidenced
last
year
when
films
of
the
likes
of
Meri
Padosan,
Detective
Naani
or
Team
-
The
Force
were
rejected
at
the
title
stage
itself!
Of
course
there
are
multiple
releases
all
through
the
IPL
as
well
which
means
it
would
be
the
survival
of
the
fittest.
Still,
at
least
films
are
giving
each
other
a
chance."
