Making money and delivering a hit are 2 different things offlate. Blue made its money but is there anyone( outside our grp) who remembers blue and its music? Not many. On the other hand think of Rang de basanti, everybody says great film with one of the best music from AR.
Whether it makes money or not, one needs to wait and see whether its a 'hit' or not. Reviews seem to be mixed. Indian Express has given 4 stars. One review of rediff 4 stars. TOI 3.5 stars. Public opinion even in our group is mixed. Gomzy, Rawat didnt like the film. Few others did. Note: Gomzy,Rawat didnt like even SDM. I think we altleast need to wait 1 week to know the result of the film. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, wiredbeats <wiredbe...@...> wrote: > > Movies work on means of arithmetic and not reviews.
