GABBAR IS BACK – 1ST SUPER HIT OF 2015?

Akshay Kumar had a great start in 2015 with Baby. Thanks to the high costs, it wasn’t a huge hit but it was loved by people and trended very well. Now, Akshay Kumar is back with Gabbar Is Back, a film that has created way more hype than Baby. It is directed by southern director Krish and it’s a remake of A R Murugadoss’ Tamil film Ramana. It is produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali (who also backed Akshay’s biggest hit Rowdy Rathore) and co-stars Shruti Haasan and Jaideep Ahlawat and also Chitrangda Singh, in an item song.

From the promos it is evident that it’s a hard-hitting action film and deals with corruption faced by aam junta on an everyday basis. Also, Ramana worked big time with the audiences. Hence, Gabbar Is Back has a high chance of connecting with the masses. The promos indicate that the film has ample masala and action and hence the film has an advantage. Sadly, none of the song has worked because of which the hype is limited, not maddening as seen during Rowdy Rathore.

Nevertheless, the film can still make a mark as it releases on a Holiday (Friday 1st May is Maharashtra Day and Labour Day). Also, there’s no other substantial competition for the next 2 weeks (Piku and Kuch Kuch Locha Hai that release on May 8 are not big films). Hence, if the response is positive, Gabbar Is Back can turn out to be the first super-hit and this is something that the industry is yearning for desperately.
