Definitely– the audience reaction certainly seems better than that of an outright rejected movie. Some didn’t think much of it, perhaps more liked it. But I was struck by the absence of strong negative reactions: no-one seemed to think this was ass-bad.
I CONSIDER MYSELF AN AUDIENCE AND HERE IS WHAT I AHVE TO SAY:
WORST MOVIE OF THE YEAR SO FAR, EVEN WORSE THAN 1-2-3.
AKSHAY ROCKS, AND MANAGES TO MAKE YOU SIT IN THE THEATRE. I SWEAR I WOULD AHVE LEFT THE THEATER IF HE WAS NOT THERE.
WHATEVER BUSINESS THIS MOVIE DOES, ITS AKSHAY ALL THE WAY. HECK JUST GIVE ME ALL AKKI’S SCENES FROM THE MOVIE AND I WILL WATCH THEM ALL OVER AGAIN, BUT THIS MOVIE JUST SUCKS TOO BAD!
I AM AFRAID ABOUT RNBDJ NOW, YRF IS REALLY TUMBLING AND HEADED TOWARDS DISASTER!
lemme point this out though, this movie is definitely gonna rock in the interiors, and superflop in multiplexes. this is an out and out single screen film.
Well Aditya is directing RNBDJ so that becomes a bit of different deal. Still he’s been out of the director’s chair for 8 years or so and he’s definitely lost his touch quite dramatically as a producer. If Tashan doesn’t work the guy who should be sweating is Ranbir.
Incidentally the teaser for Bachcna ae haseeno is up on the Yashraj site (with even the Kishore song playing!).
oh i saw the teaster with tashan, looked quite intersting… but ranbir looks gayish rather than macho or casanova… the femlaes look awesome, though bips looks much older compared to ranbir!

A better Audience reaction to the otherwise critically ripped apart movie.

Good to see this.
well the critics didn’t like Bhagam Bhaag at the time, even kept saying it hadn’t worked. Week 1 numbers revealed a different story!

Devesh: I had heard that Bipasha Basu plays an older woman in this film.
