There will be many new releases this week with Daddy, Mr. Kabaadi, Poster Boys, Sameer and The Rally with Daddy and Poster Boys getting the best releases. Poster Boys is a comedy film which is a remake of a Marathi film but the production values of the film are poor and its look more like a film for television than a feature film. The film has Sunny Deol who ruled the box office in the nineties and still has some face value. Ghayal Once Again opened to 5.50 crore nett but was an action film. The Yamla Pagla Deewana films were comedies and opened even better at 7.5 and 6.25 crore nett but they looked bigger films than Poster Boys. The plus for Poster Boys is that its low cost with it being released and marketed at under 30 crore but its this factor also which probably comes in the way of the film getting some sort of starting point.

Daddy is that typical underworld formula which does not even work in Mumbai today. There was a time when the better underworld films worked in Mumbai circuit as Mumbai / Thane / Pune belt did well but the dynamics of the box office have changed as at that time these cities could contribute 70-75% of the circuit business but now its much lower and also the audience seems less interested in this type of cinema. The rest of the country was never really interested and its the same today but still the industry seems to have a fascination for these type of films for some reason.

There is the Hollywood horror film IT also and this could give the two main Hindi releases a run for their money despite being an adult film. Also holdovers Baadshaho and Shubh Mangal Saavdhan will be fighting for an audience so its pretty much a clustered week with the new releases facing plenty of competition.
