The year 2007 can easily be compared to an over-budgeted multi-starrer masala flick with additional glam and spice.
However, it should perhaps be best remembered for the grand promotions, shocking box-office disasters, emergence of sports as a new success-mantra and an encouraging increase in children’s films, besides the usual blockbusters, star break-ups and link-ups, and controversies.
We can safely start with the most noted Battle Royale between Shah Rukh Khan’s Om Shanti Om and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya. While the films battled each other at the ticket window, the superstar actor and critically acclaimed director of his times fought it out off-screen.
With the promotion costs of both films breaking all the records, this sure has been the most aggressive marketing battle ever in the Bollwyood. Irrespective of who won and who lost, the fight has sure given us all a hint at how cruel the fights would be off and on screen.
Meanwhile, it is OSO that’s apparently having the last laugh at the Box Office. But till the film breaks all the revenue records in the coming weeks, it is yet another SRK starrer Shimit Amin-directed Chak De! India that tops the list of the year’s blockbusters. It is followed by Mani Ratnam’s Guru, David Dhawan’s Partner, Sajid Nadiayadwala’s Heyy Babyy, Priyadarshan’s Bhool Bhulaiya.
