Bollywood has taken a flying start this summer with Race. The movie has embarked on a great opening three-day weekend and with the reports being highly positive, the trade is pretty sure that the movie will be another hugely successful one in the days to come. With almost no competition from any release until the 11th of April, Race has 3 clear weeks in front of it to make maximum money and wit the kind of release that it has had and the positive feedback, a very good looking balance sheet looks a certainty.On the star front, the movie is yet another hit, further pushing Saif Ali Khan’s ever growing star status, though last year’s Ta Ra Rum Pum was a bit of a dampener. Akshae Khanna is bang on target this time with his villainous performance after a quiet 2007 where he had Salaam-e-Ishq and Naqaab bombing at the box office. Finally, Anil Kapoor, the most enduring actor in Bollywood makes a stylish statement with his performance as Inspector RD, his whacky one-liners really capturing the audience.
The three leading ladies. Well, it is not often that you get to see such beautiful ladies together on screen and everyone has realized it, quite evident by the collections that the movie is generating. Abbas - Mustan have landed a genuine hit after quite some time.
