Film Preview
After receiving a positive response for his role in the adult
comedy “Delhi Belly”, actor Imran Khan returns to charm with his chocolate boy
look in “Mere Brother Ki Dulhan”, a light-hearted and twisted tale of love that
releases Friday.
Produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films, directed and
written by debutant Ali Abbas Zafar, the film also stars Katrina Kaif and
Pakistani singer-actor Ali Zafar in the lead roles.
Set in the milieu of an urban middle class family, the quirky
comedy deals with two brothers - Luv Agnihotri (Ali Zafar) and Kush Agnihotri
(Imran Khan). While Kush works as an assistant director in the film industry,
his elder brother Luv works as an investment banker in London. A casanova by
heart, Luv realises he wants to get married and settle down with an Indian
girl.
So Kush is given the task of bride hunting for his brother and
during this quest, he encounters some wacky and funny situations. Finally, he
meets Dimple Dixit (Katrina), who likes to lead a life with no boundaries. She
is also from London, but is a true Indian at heart.
Dimple is the craziest girl Kush has ever met. So, while
everything is finalised and preparations are in full swing, Kush realises he
has fallen in love with his brother’s ‘dulhan’. Then follows a string of
comical and unpredictable events that promise to leave audiences in splits.
One would never believe that matrimonial advertisements can
inspire anyone and become a medium to entertain, but in case of “Mere Brother
Ki Dulhan”, the director took a cue from matrimonial ads and wove his story
around it.
Apart from this, Ali Abbas Zafar has also been inspired by
Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s “Chupke Chupke” and “Gol Maal” while giving shaping up
the movie. The film has been shot in Agra, Delhi, Chandigarh, Dehradun and
Mumbai.
“Mere Brother Ki Dulhan” is the second Bollywood film of Ali
Zafar, who had made his debut in Abhishek Sharma’s “Tere Bin Laden”, where he
had played the Al Qaeda leader and received accolades for his role.
Both Imran and Katrina are currently on cloud nine after the
success of their films “Delhi Belly” and “Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara”
respectively.
This is the first time the two are paired together and their
on-screen chemistry looks equally impeccable.
Sohail Sen, who has previously composed music for “What’s Your
Raashee?”, has penned the music of the film. Not just this, Ali Zafar too has
lent his voice to a song “Madhubala”, which has become quite a rage.
The film also has John Abraham in a friendly appearance.
Boxoffice Prediction
The film will surely take a good opening because of very popular
music and very refreshing lookof lead pairs. The in side industry buzz is very
positive and also the hype among the movie lover is very good. The movie will
dent some amount due to the competition from bodyguard from the single screen
but that will be limited because this movie is multiplex genre movie.
The movie should release around 950 prints in India and 250 prints
in overseas. Looking at the hype the movie will get around 60-65% occupancy
level, which will come around 28-30cr range.
The Expected Weekend
Friday: 8.50cr
Saturday: 9.50cr
Sunday: 11.50cr
