Mumbai: Definitely it's a treat for Cinegoers as three movies SRK's ‘Billu', ‘The Stoneman Murders' and ‘Jugaad will hit silver screens across the nation today.
Even the buzz around Shah Rukh Khan's home production film ‘Billu' is a remake of South movie, Shah Rukh's fans will get to watch the much awaited and much hyped flick today.
A directional venture of Priyadarshan, ‘Billu' is a story of two ordinary friends. This Irfan Khan starrer movie is expected to offer something more to the audiences than just a story of an ordinary man.
On the other hand, ‘Jugaad' is a non-starter and it would be an achievement if it manages to get decent timings. ‘The Stoneman Returns' boasts of an interesting premise but has not been promoted enough.”
But the experts feel that if Shah Rukh has a sizeable role in “Billu”, collections may pick up at the box office.
Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, “Billu” has been directed by Priyadarshan and stars Irrfan Khan and Lara Dutta in the lead apart from Shah Rukh, Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra in three item numbers.
‘The Stoneman Murders', written and directed by Manish Gupta, stars Kay Kay Menon, Arbaaz Khan and Rukhsaar. ‘Jugaad' has been directed by Anand Kumar and produced by Sandiip Kapur. It stars Manoj Bajpai, Hrishita Bhatt and Vijay Raaz.
