Midweek: ‘Karzzzz’ dull at plexes, better at single screens

Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Karzzzz	Himesh Reshammiya, Urmila Matondkar, Shweta Kumar, Danny Denzongpa, Gulshan Grover, Rohini Hattangadi, Dino Morea [sp. app.].	Himesh shows vast improvement as an actor. Also boasts of foot-tapping music and present-day interpretation	Twist in the tale hasn't found acceptance	Multiplexes have been dull, but single screens in North are better. Yet, there's no denying that the film has under-performed almost everywhere. The extensive release [the excessive prints in circulation, too many shows] is being attributed to the business getting divided. The pre-Diwali phase is also considered dull for film business and perhaps, that took a toll as well. Besides, the decline in markets and the negative sentiment is also being attributed as a key factor
