‘moor’ has shown what magic the word of mouth is. the film started slow but picked up due to the positive reviews. moreover the bigger surprise is that the film has managed to hold really well in the second week. most people, us included, thought the film would not be able to make it past the second week due to its niche appeal. but proving us wrong the film has managed quite a successful week two and is going strong. a testament to its success is lahores super cinema vogue which had one show reserved for the film but had two shows for the film in week two. shah is holding decent as well. but ‘dmps’ as mentioned earlier is history !

shah, which chronicles the journey of boxer adnan hussain shah, from the streets of lyari to a podium - finish in the seoul olympics, packs a punch and may just provide the right dose of patriotism to audiences on august 14 .
kiran chaudhry’s character, the journalist noor, is perhaps the only visible female character in the film and disappears quite inexplicably somewhere in the first half. her absence isn’t really noticed because her character wasn’t, well, necessary. she might be the journalist in search of shah, but there’s another one interviewing him in the film .
jab harry met sejal is shah rukh' s first collaboration with imtiaz ali, and his third with anushka sharma. the film failed to live up to its hype, and has been largely panned by critics for the meandering narrative. and it looks like the negative reviews are taking a toll on the collections of the film .
but the real fall for ‘dmps’ came on monday as it was left with about 30% of the shows it was originally supposed to have and this is not a good sign for a film. even these shows were played to a limited crowd as the negativity had spread and nobody wanted to see the film. thursday was the last day for the film as it is no more playing in cinemas (except for maybe two or three screens) and thus the film had a lifetime of only 7 days. this weekend was probably the last three days for the film at the remaining few screens and looks like this film will end on a 2. 2 - 2. 3 crore lifetime which means the film is a flop .

filmmaker imtiaz ali has brushed aside the criticism around jab harry met sejal which said that the film lacked touch. the filmmaker said that he never looked for praise when he made the movie. jab harry met sejal which released this friday received tepid response from critics citing that the expectations from the movie were much higher. during promotion of his film, jhms, imtiaz ali told the film spoke about critical response towards the film .
statutory warning - do not watch the trailer of ventilator before you see the film. 80% of the film’s punches are in the trailer, not leaving much room for intrigue. in case you have already watched the trailer and are still curious enough to watch the film, here' s what’s in store for you .
the film begins with where it all begins, shah as a kid is, in his own words, a ‘pootpathia’ (someone who roams the streets) and how boxing gets him off the streets. the pace feels somewhat slow at first but after the first 10 or 15 minutes you get used to it. the film follows a classic but simple formula of starting with an interview and telling the story of shah through flashbacks, but it still manages to work .
you’d think the film would end with shah winning the bronze medal in the 1988 seoul olympics and coming home to joyous celebrations in his own neighbourhood. but it turns out, that’s only the beginning. what happens later is what shapes the character of the film and presents us with a memorable but oft - repeated line: “izzat say paith nahin bharta! ” (you can’t feed yourself with glory). in shah, we see that line being played out .
a year later, michael lynton, the then chairman of sony pictures entertainment, which produced bhansali’s film, told the new york times: “you don’t go up against shah rukh khan, no matter how good your product is. ”
made on a grand budget, this larger than life film produced by shah rukh khan and juhi chawla got a lukewarm response on the box office. it managed to collect us $ 4. 4 million worldwide and was received critically .
interestingly, the much sought - after date — august 11— was earlier announced by akshay kumar for his neeraj pandey directorial, crack. a few weeks after akshay announced the film on twitter, shah rukh khan announced that his yet - untitled film starring anushka sharma will also release on the same date. while akshay postponed plans to film crack, and started work on toilet: ek prem katha, the clash was destined to happen on the same date .

keeping in mind the actor’s efforts, shah himself complimented sarwar by calling him a younger version of himself. this may prove to be a morale booster as shah is headed to compete with its rival, bollywood’s brothers, among many others on the independence day .
how debutant adnan sarwar was able to weave out such a brilliant, action - packed movie is certainly mystifying. shah isn’t simply a movie that focuses on one boxer’s triumph or his fight against another contender; shah is about an athlete against the whole system .

jab harry met sejal box office collection day 3: shah rukh khan, anushka sharma shows growth, collects rs 45. 75 cr
shah rukh khan who was recently in the capital to promote his upcoming release' dilwale' spoke his mind about the blurring line between commercial and parallel cinema in recent times. while speaking to ibnlive. com, shah rukh referred to 2015 as the year of films like' masaan' and' titli', and also addressed his incapability to do an' independent' film .
even though it may be ill - advised to judge a film based on just a trailer, the adnan sarwar - directed sports biopic shah already feels like a breeze of fresh air given the number of formula films that have been produced of late .
after tubelight tanked at the ticketing window, shocking the trade analysts and the media, shah rukh khan’s film jab harry met sejal was thought to face the same fate. however, now it seems that things might not turn as bad as expected .
most of the actors in the film are unknown local artists from lyari, karachi and we are all outsiders in the established film industry. there was a lot of cynicism about whether we could pull this off. but we have .
though the subject begs for better handling, the challenge of directing such a diverse ensemble cast is definitely noteworthy. the simplicity of the film’s songs like baba and ya re ya saare ya compliment the situations in the film very well .
, now stands at rs 53. 75 crore. over the weekend, the film earned over rs 30 crore .
ananya bhattacharya of india today said :
gauri shinde does a half - decent job with dear zindagi. the director, whose english vinglish was a landmark film and did not leave you without a smile or a tear, seems oddly laid - back in dear zindagi. maybe we began expecting too much from shinde after her first film. watch the film for alia bhatt and shah rukh khan. it' s an emotional joyride which won' t harm you when watched once .
according to latest reports, shah rukh will being shooting for imtiaz ali’s film first before moving on to anand l rai’s flick. the actor allotted dates for ali’s shoot as his script is ready and waiting to go on floor. rai’s script on the other hand is still being worked on and hence it only seemed logical to start the film once things were in place .
what’s refreshing about adnan sarwar as a method actor is that he as celebrity is not present in the film, the character he plays is. with a lot of ‘established’ actors, they don’t stop being the stars in the film and rarely loose themselves in their characters. soon you forget that it’s adnan playing a role, because in the film, he is shah — he’s adopted the original boxer’s soft - spoken, shy attitude, accent and through make - up transformed himself to a point where he and the original shah would look more like brothers. he’s not afraid of looking unappealing if that’s what his character demands .
lahore - based musician adnan sarwar is playing the role of shah after attending a six - month - long training programme, in which he was guided by the boxer himself. logos films acquired the life rights for the sports biopic last year and the film is expected to be released in late 2014. the film production is taking place in pakistan, united kingdom and japan .
shah was a top boxer. i have followed his career in the 80s and he was simply unstoppable. i am glad film makers in pakistan are going in the right direction. it is imperative to tell the stories of such people who achieved these amazing things. pak film industry has to find its own niche and not try to follow the bollywood song and dance formula .

sometimes less is more and in shah, thankfully, although the brands are there, but they are in the background. and although they are present, shah doesn’t need them to win a boxing match. neither do they buy him the shoes that he so desperately needs .
we next see shah go toe - to - toe against the indian champion, with the biased crowd booing shah and egging their local champion on. after a dismal round and being pounded hard by the indian boxer, shah takes one look at the relentless crowd spewing hatred for him and decides that enough is enough. as soon as the bell rings and the round commences, shah forces the indian champion to kiss the canvas, courtesy killer blows dealt out in a flurry of seconds. as shah is awarded the gold medal, the crowd goes silent and pakistan’s national anthem is played in india. myself along with every single attendee, stood up as proud pakistanis whilst that scene lasted .
noway am i gonna watch a trashy akshay kumar movie. shah looks very promising. i' ll definitely go to cinema for this .
after jab harry met sejal, there are chances that the audience might see shah rukh khan and anushka sharma sharing the screen space more often. while the two are already prepping up for aanand l rai' s next, anushka hints at a production project starring shah rukh .
the first day proved to be a success for all the films as each of them recorded great numbers. while ‘dmps’ being a commercial film was obviously the one with the biggest collection, ‘shah’ and ‘moor’ also clicked with their target markets and recorded healthy numbers .
third week saw ‘moor’ holding well and running to packed houses at select cinemas whereas ‘shah’ also did decent business. ‘dekh magar pyaar say’ had maybe three - four shows and once the third week came to an end the film is now completely out of cinemas .
sharing his experience of working with the 51 - year - old actor, aanand l rai added :
i feel honoured to work with him (shah rukh khan) and i will take some time for the film to move forward ,

just as is the case usually with premieres, plenty of photographers, media personnel and acting greats were present on the occasion. the blinding flash of lights and camera shutter sounds filled the air, as the who’s who of pakistani film industry voiced their views on shah, the film industry and everything in between. actors humayun saeed and adnan siddiqui were seen casually chatting with photographers and relating their expectations from shah. anoushey ashraf, who was to host the event later on, was seen mingling with the important guests. adnan sarwar, the man who risked it all to play his childhood hero shah on–screen was engaging several reporters and cameramen at the same time .
he has a midas touch but king khan has had his share of flops in his 25 years in hindi film industry .
trade analyst komal nahta told hindustan times, “i have not watched the film yet, so cannot comment on the collections. however, the makers have created a good buzz around the film and harry and sejal are now household names. the film is likely to cross rs 19 - 20 crore on the first day. the advance bookings are also going strong. ”
as sarwar took his seat and the real hussain shah, clad in a pakistan jacket, took to the mic, the whole floor erupted into a thunderous applause. hussain shah made his way to the podium and for a moment, it seemed that the applause would not cease .
expressing his delight to be back in dubai, shah rukh khan said he was happy to be filming the sequel to the hugely successful # bemyguest campaign film. he said that the film was done in a creative and different way from how tourism films are usually made, as it was
so funny and sweet
yet it was still able to showcase dubai in all its glory .
but soon after his olympic achievement, shah was forgotten by the public and media alike and he went back to a life of abject poverty .
the movie begins with a journalist keen on unearthing the story behind shah’s forgotten legacy and digs deep. a sober yet beleaguered shah tells his story to an interviewer, and we’re taken back in time. shah, a young boy from lyari, is devoid of proper food, clothing and shelter. one day, a man (whom he later on calls chacha) saves him from a hostile police officer and becomes his guardian .
shah! how can i watch this movie? shah is my friend! ... we used to train together in the usa in the 1990' s and became very close... is there any way that i can reach him? ?? ?? ?? ?

at tribeca this weekend fans will congregate to watch scorsese’s film – for many it is an almost perfect new york mobster picture .
“the message contained in this movie is that if shah can defeat boxers from around the world without food, clothing and shelter, then we can achieve all sorts of feats with the given facilities. shah did it all and he didn’t even get a meal, three times a day. ”
adnan: the music for the film was written almost two years ago. since i am a musician before anything else, writing the soundtrack was the part that excited me the most. we decided early on that the film will not have any item numbers, love songs, etc. there is only one song in the film and the rest of the music is quite different from what one is used to hearing in subcontinental films. yes,' intense' may just be the correct word to describe shah' s music .
adnan sarwar has made his debut in the film industry as the director, lead actor and scriptwriter of the first pakistani biopic. the multifaceted and talented sarwar was a member of popular rock band club caramel in lahore, qualified as a doctor, and has now made a splash with shah. not surprisingly, he has also done the music score for the film, although in collaboration with farhan albert .
khan has deftly converted the 20 - year - anniversary of his biggest bollywood hit— dilwale dulhaniya le jayenge— into a marketing opportunity for dilwale. both films star kajol and shah rukh khan, whom film critic raja sen recently described as hindi cinema’s “ last truly great pair. ”
with a spate of boxing films already being released internationally for years, shah would be pakistan’s first film to be based on an olympian. to bring the real - life feel on the big screen, sarwar spent several hours interacting with the local boxers of lyari in order to gain an insight on the local boxing culture. he said, “the character of shah draws inspiration from quite a few boxers and their mannerisms. ”
supporting his director, shah rukh khan said that the real test of a film lies in going beyond the ordinary and create some
magic
. he said ,
i think sometimes the bigger feeling is to try something new. i have been in the business long enough to try a formula film and to try a film with no formula. succeeded and failed at both... so every writer or director does not want to go back to the same magic because he / she does not know how it was created .
box office week three:' moor' doing well,' shah' is decent while' dekh magar pyaar say' is out of cinemas.
