Midweek: ‘MI4’ dominates, new releases fail

Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Ladies VS Ricky Bahl	Anushka Sharma, Ranveer Singh, Parineeti Chopra, Dipannita Sharma, Aditi Sharma	Ranveer-Anushka-Parineeti's spirited performances and Salim-Sulaiman's energetic musical score	Screenplay lacks meat	Collected Rs 5.15 cr in Weekend 2, taking the 10-day total to Rs 30.08 cr nett. Though the theatrical business is average, Yash Raj will make good profits due to the revenue generated from non-theatrical avenues
The Dirty Picture	Vidya Balan, Naseeruddin Shah, Emraan Hashmi, Tusshar, Anju Mahendru, Rajesh Sharma, Shivani Tanskale, Mangal Kenkre, Imran Hasnee	Great script, superb dialogue, bravura performances, especially by Vidya Balan and 'Ooh La La'	Screenplay dips in post-interval portions	Collected Rs 5.05 cr in Weekend 3 [Fri 1.21 cr, Sat 1.68 cr, Sun 2.16 cr], taking the 17-day total to Rs 77.26 cr nett. Super Hit

Note:- The opening weekend business of MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - GHOST PROTOCOL was extra-ordinary, while the Hindi releases, PAPPU CAN'T DANCE SAALA and JO HUM CHAHEIN, remained extremely poor.
