Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Break Ke Baad	Imran Khan, Deepika Padukone, Sharmila Tagore, Shahana Goswami, Yudhishtir Urs, Lillete Dubey, Navin Nischol	Imran and Deepika's act	Sloppy screenplay and disappointing musical score	Collected Rs. 3 cr. on Friday, Rs. 3.5 cr. on Saturday and Rs. 4 cr. on Sunday. The Weekend 1 total stands at approx. Rs. 10.5 cr. nett, which is below average. While the theatrical business in India is not up to the mark, the film may end up making decent profits for its investors. On an investment of approx. Rs. 27 cr. [incl. P & A], Rs. 18 cr. has been recovered from all electronic rights. The balance amount [approx. Rs. 9 cr.] has to be recovered from India and Overseas theatrical and Home Video
Guzaarish	Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Shernaz Patel, Nafisa Ali, Suhel Seth, Moni Kangana Dutta, Vijay Crishna, Rajit Kapoor, Makarand Deshpande, Ash Chandler, Achint Kaur	An outstanding film in all respects. Amongst Bhansaliâ€™s best works	Generous usage of English language, which curtails its reach to an extent. Also, city-centric appeal	Remained on the lower side in its second weekend. Will entail losses to UTV
Golmaal 3	Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Tusshar Kapoor, Shreyas Talpande, Kunal Khemu, Mithun Chakraborty, Ratna Pathak Shah, Johnny Lever, Vrajesh Hirjee, Sanjay Mishra, Mukesh Tiwari, Murli Sharma, Vijay Patkar, Viju Khote, Ashwini Kalsekar, Prem Chopra	Non-stop entertainment	Skeletal plot	Blockbuster
Allah Ke Banday	Naseeruddin Shah, Sharman Joshi, Faruk Kabir, Atul Kulkarni, Zakir Hussain, Anjana Sukhani, Rukhsaar, Suhasini Mulay	Interesting plot well-handled by the debutant director	Inconsistent screenplay	Remained poor all through the opening weekend
Action Replayy	Akshay Kumar, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Aditya Roy Kapur, Om Puri, Kirron Kher, Rajpal Yadav, Rannvijay, Randhir Kapoor, Neha Dhupia	Good performances	Uninspiring screenplay	Flop
