This is not about the show on CNN IBN or the fight on ESPN Sports but really about that which 'Bollywood' experiences during its 'festival' releases! This year, it seems crazier, with two biggies (strictly an opinion of this blogger) of the directorial cinema - Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Farah Khan - releasing their magnum opus of the year, on the sparkling eve of Diwali!
Both movies seem to have - promising stars of the future;
fresh faces coupled with top stars too;
grand visual delight from the first look promos;
theme of love stories attached (been a while since Veer Zaara);
music humming to the ears.
While one has Bollywood's Star Family clan supporting the release (Kappor clan for Saawariya), the other has a star-encompassing song with 31 actors, promoting the movie (needless to say, a typical Khan-way of showcasing its songs).
Almost every radio channel has been playing their songs and TV channels screening their promos. Cell phones ring to their tunes and caller-ringtones galore, it is indeed the Diwali for Bollywood to celebrate!
Needless to say I would watch both the movies, the issue is which one would I view first! :)
