New Delhi: Bollywood dishes out a simple fare this week at the box-office.
It is going an easy race for John Abraham and Nana Patekar-starrer Taxi Number 9211 as the film hits the screens with almost no competition.
Another flick to hit the screens is Bobby Deol, Amisha Patel and Arjun Rampal's Humko Tumse Pyar Hai but the film doesn’t look too promising.
CNN-IBN correspondent Saryu Mahajan takes a sneak peak at this week's releases.
With Milan Luthria in the director's seat, Nana Patekar in the driver’s seat and John Abraham in the back seat, Taxi number 9211 hits the box office with tall claims this weekend.
The film is about how a taxi ride changes the life of two completely different men in a span of 24 hours.
Jai Mittal aka John Abraham is a rich boy contesting his father's will of Rs 300 crore. He stumbles upon cabbie Raghav (Patekar), whose only aim is to somehow make Rs 30,000 at the end of the day by cheating wealthy passengers.
Some thrill, sharp humour and a lot of confusion, that's the potpourri called Taxi Number 9211.
While actress Sameeera Reddy adds the regular oomph, music director Vishal Shekhar’s foot tapping music is already gaining popularity.
Amisha Patel dyed her locks blonde recently but in Humko Tumse Pyar Hai she's a brunette. Why? Because the flick is as stale as her hair colour of last season.
And to top it all, the film tells an equally dated love story. Amisha Patel is a blind girl and in love with Arjun Rampal.
Rampal dies abruptly and then resurfaces. But by the time he does that, Amisha is already married to his childhood friend Bobby Deol.
A hackneyed script laced by a poor score by music director Anand Raj Anand, Humko Tumse Pyar Hai seems, has little hope.
So, take your pick for this weekend - a somber love story or a racy thriller?
