Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Kites	Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori, Kangna Ranaut, Kabir Bedi, Nicholas Brown	Hrithik Roshan	Predictable and cliched screenplay	Had a fantastic opening weekend: Excellent paid previews on Thursday [approx. Rs. 1.75 cr.], superb Friday [approx. Rs. 10.4 cr.], very good Saturday, although it declined a bit [approx. Rs. 8.6 cr.] and fantastic Sunday [approx. Rs. 9.75 cr.]. The opening weekend total stands at approx. Rs. 30.5 cr. nett. Business at multiplexes was strong, but single screens saw large drops. However, the reports are negative and as per early indications, the film witnessed a substantial drop in business on Monday. The film has cost its distributors an exorbitant amount and at the rate the business has started sliding downwards, they would incur heavy losses on this one
Badmaash>	Shahid Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Vir Das, Meiyang Chang, Anupam Kher, Kiran Juneja, Pawan Malhotra	Interesting premise, wonderful performances, tuneful music and fine direction	Penultimate 25-odd minutes	Will recover costs and make profits from theatrical and non-theatrical revenues
Housefull	Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Arjun Rampal, Deepika Padukone, Lara Dutta, Jiah Khan, Randhir Kapoor, Boman Irani, Chunkey Pandey, Lilette Dubey, Malaika Arora Khan	Gripping second half and skilled performances by each and every member of its cast	Inconsistent screenplay at places	Hit
Bumm>	Darsheel Safary, Ziyah Vastani, Atul Kulkarni, Rituparna Sengupta	Wonderful performances	Story has been stretched unnecessarily and lethargic pacing	Flop
Kushti	Rajpal Yadav, Nargis, Om Puri, Sharat Saxena, Asrani, Manoj Joshi, The Great Khali	The penultimate kushti involving Khali and Rajpal	Relies on cliched stuff	Flop
