Midweek: ‘Raaz 3’ is a monstrous hit!

Film	Cast	Plusses	Minusses	Verdict
Raaz 3	Bipasha Basu, Emraan Hashmi, Esha Gupta, Manish Chaudhuri, Mohan Kapur	Lethal combo of sex and horror in 3D, competent performances, an engaging human drama	Lack of hit music	Fetched a thunderous start, emerging Vishesh Films, Emraan Hashmi and Bipasha Basu's biggest opener to date. The film fared exceptionally well at single screens and reported excellent footfalls at multiplexes too. The opening weekend business of the film is almost at par with the Week 1 business of MURDER 2 [36.5 cr nett] and bigger than JANNAT 2 [35.55 cr nett]. Collected approx Rs 36.02 cr nett in its opening weekend. Breakup:- Thu previews 58 lacs, Fri 10.47 cr, Sat 11.18 cr, Sun est 13.79 cr. Extra-ordinary!
Joker	Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha, Shreyas Talpade, Minissha Lamba, Arya Babbar, Vindu Dara Singh, Asrani, Sanjay Mishra, Vrajesh Hirjee, Pitobash, Gurpreet Guggi, Darshan Jariwala, Anjan Srivastava, Avtar Gill, Bikramjeet Kanwarpal, Alexx O'Nell	Interesting concept	Shoddy writing and weak execution	Flop
Ek Tha Tiger	Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Girish Karnad, Ranvir Shorey, Roshan Seth	Salman and Katrina's chemistry, gripping second hour, dazzling action, stunning international locales and stylish execution	First half could've been tighter	Collected approx Rs 2.50 cr nett in Weekend 4, taking the total to Rs 197.40 cr nett. All Time Blockbuster
