Midweek B.O.: ‘Guzaarish’ under-performs, ‘Harry Potter’ leads

Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
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	Collected approx. Rs. 14.50 cr. nett in its opening weekend. The breakup:- Friday Rs. 4 cr., Saturday Rs. 4.75 cr. and Sunday Rs. 5.75 cr. While the film showed a day-wise escalation in business, the numbers are far from satisfactory [in fact, way below the mark], since the costs are on the higher side. The film has performed better at major metros, but the terrific appreciation hasnâ€™t translated into big numbers. Ideally, the film shouldâ€™ve had a Rs. 20 cr. + weekend, despite a slow start
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	Super Hit
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
