Film Cast Plusses Minusses Verdict Tanu Weds Manu Madhavan, Kangna Ranaut, Jimmy Sheirgill, Ravi Kissen, Deepak Dobriyal, Eijaz Khan, Swara Bhaskar, Rajendra Gupta, K.K. Raina, Navni Parihaar, Deepti Mishra Plusses: Great chemistry between Madhavan-Kangna, good music and some wonderful moments in the first hour Gets predictable and serious in second hour Collected approx. Rs. 5.11 cr nett in its second weekend. The breakup:- Fri: 1.26 cr, Sat: 1.95 cr and Sun: 1.90 cr. Total so far: Rs. 23.67 cr nett. Though the contribution from multiplexes has been maximum [single screens aren't up to the mark], the recoveries from various circuits have been very good. Hit 7 Khoon Maaf Priyanka Chopra, John Abraham, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Naseeruddin Shah, Irrfan Khan, Aleksandr Dyachenko, Annu Kapoor, Vivaan Shah, Konkona Sen Sharma, Usha Uthup Priyanka Chopra's performance and a few interesting episodes Script doesn't hold Flop Patiala House Akshay Kumar, Rishi Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Anushka Sharma, Armaan Kirmani, Jeneva Talwar, Usman Qureshi, Tinnu Anand, Prem Chopra, Soni Razdan Akshay Kumar's performance, dramatic moments and penultimate portions Screenplay is erratic Flop Yeh Saali Zindagi Irrfan Khan, Chitrangda Singh, Arunoday Singh, Aditi Rao Hydari, Saurabh Shukla, Sushant Singh, Vipin Sharma, Yashpal Sharma, Prashant Narayanan, Vipul Gupta A taut screenplay that ensures monotony doesn't set in. Plus, super performances from the entire cast. Also, Sudhir Mishra's handling of the subject material Inconsistent pacing and a few unwanted sequences that add to the length Above average Note:- The opening weekend of YEH FAASLEY was extremely poor.

Al the craptastic movies are sinking whether it is marketed as a huge masala fanfare i.e. patiala house or a serious "arthouse" film .i.e. saat khoon maaf. I think the audience is growing up. All kinds of films are being accepted these days. Who would have though yeh saali zindagi would be above average? And Tanu weds Manu with a Madhavan and Kangana cast should have technically flopped, but it did not. I like the change. Stars don't guarantee hits these days. Good. Edited by Dexterphile - 13 years ago

best line to read

I am liking this new trend.. 

I don't know how the producers get talked into wasting bazillions on such overhyped mediocre 'actors' and garbage scripts..😆😆😆 wht pity.. thats a $hit load of waste..

I am so happy that we are finally getting rid of Johar NRI insinuated drama and melodramatic, stupid movies. People have spoken in survivor style.

I wanna watch Yeh Saali Zindagi. It seems like a nice/realistic film just from the title lol. Happy that TWM was a hit. This shows that films don't become a hit because of the stars in it, but because of the script. Happy for Kangana...even though she was bad in the film. THis girl knows how to pick her scripts. Her films are usually a hit...OUATIM and now TWM. The only bad choice she made was start in No Problem!
