Kidnap vs Drona: Both set to collide

  • Drona'Drona' is touted as a fantasy-adventure, a genre yet untested when it comes to Bollywood, while Kidnap's scope is better.

    Now here's one week everyone's looking forward to. After a string of low-cost and medium-budget fares making a mark in the holy month of Ramzan, let's get ready to embrace the biggies, starting from this week onwards. All eyes are on ‘Kidnap’ and ‘Drona’. For various reasons…

    ‘Kidnap’ is crucial for director Sanjay Gadhvi as also Imran Khan. Gadhvi makes his first film outside Yash Raj and naturally, people are expecting the moon from Gadhvi's new outing. Will ‘Kidnap’ be as successful as ‘Dhoom’ and ‘Dhoom 2’? ‘Kidnap’ is also an acid test for Imran Khan, who has been cast in a role that's in sharp contrast to the one in ‘Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na’. Will it work? Will Imran stand up to a giant like Sanjay Dutt, who has decades of experience behind him?

    Similarly, ‘Drona’ is crucial for Abhishek Bachchan and Goldie Behl. Abhishek has had a string of flops after ‘Guru’. ‘Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’ and ‘Laaga Chunari Mein Daag’, produced by Yash Raj, have proved supreme disasters at the box-office, while ‘Sarkar Raj’ met with average success in Mumbai-Maharashtra and South. Elsewhere, it was a flop.

    Since ‘Drona’ rides on Abhishek's shoulders, it'll be interesting to see if the actor pulls in the audiences in its opening 4-day weekend. Also, Goldie Behl has to prove his abilities after he flunked the test in ‘Bas Itna Sa Khwab Hai’. Thursday, October 2 holds the answers!
