Yamla Pagla Deewana 2
Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 or YPD2 is releasing tomorrow and is promising to be good watch. Full marks to the promo designer, it has generated quite a bit of interest among casual movie goers. Deols could be seen on any TV channel promoting this movie, which is quite unlike them. Sunny Deol has brought up the point of doing so much promotion being the waste of money and time in almost every single interview he did while promoting this movie. While it is very nice to see Sunny Deol appearing in interviews and seeing how they are making effort to promote their movie, I don't see how their promotion would have attracted the young crowd.
So I guess youth would still be looking to watch YJHD, which has broken almost all records (apart from fastest to 100 crores) so far. Due to this reason, multiplexes would like to give more screen space to YJHD which has trended very well in weekdays. It won't be a surprise that YJHD will gross more than YPD2 on Friday, while Word-of-mouth may balance out Saturday count. Also, popularity of Ranbir and negativity against Sunny Deol among print media could affect the public perception of the movie's quality.
This movie has decent music, however lack of variety (overdose of Punjabiness) can hurt its popularity. At the surface YPD2 looks like a promising bet from the audience's perspective. It promises good fun time in the cinema hall, so that should do the trick. Being a huge fan of Sunny Deol, I am not going to miss it for anything else.
