RACE 2 Omar Quereshi Review n First 3 DAYS Collections
7:19 AM
Race-2
'Race2' vrooms back into theatres powered by
the Abbas-Mustan fuel of style, slickness and sexiness. yes, it has all
the fast cars, lambhorghinis blowing up even, jet planes, Audis (most
decidedly Audis) & bikes & horses too. Exotic Turkey made to
look even more exotic & beckoning. Yes, it has dollops of hot gals
and bronzed bikini bodies, and plenty of testosterone & 6 packs
thrown in too. Saif is back as Ranveer
Singh, the man with the plan. he joins hands with John (Arman Mallick)
Abraham & his step-sista Deepika Padukone (Elena) and John's gal
Jacqueline Fernandez. Anil Kapoor plays the corrupt cop, now retired,
and doubling up as a corrupt bar-runner RD with his blonde assistant
Sameera Reddy replaced by a blonder Amisha Patel (Cherry). Of course,
there are even double-meaning, sleazy jokes on 'popping the Cherry',
fruit shapes and juicy frootees. What is sadly slowing down this race is
the fuel needed from a good story. The characters are not as twisted as
in the earlier part, and are predictable. The story is slow and the 2nd
part falls apart, turning into a spy-kids flick with gizmos and
outlandish plots to steal artefacts worth 20 billion dollars no less.
Deepika looks smoking hot, sensatonal but has not much to do. Jacqueline
ecen less, apart from a stylish fencing sequence with Saif. Amisha
plays the fruitcake blonde to perfection. Saif is very good, John is
wasted and Anil gets more obscene but still carries it off inspite of a
small role. Music falls short of part 1 and overall a lot is missing.
But watchable for its style and slickness, so what if a story is missing
and the twists are predictable. Still a watchable 3 stars from me.
Boxoffice Collections
Hindi movie Race 2, which is a sequel to big hit movie Race, has
concluded the first weekend with a fantastic collection at the Indian
Box Office. The Saif Ali Khan, John Abraham and Anil Kapoor starrer has
topped the business chart, while another new release Akaash Vani landed
in the second place. It has surpassed Rs 50 crore mark at the domestic
business centres in three days and has become the biggest opener of
2013.
Race 2, which was released in 3,200 screens across the country on
January 25, opened to a robust response at the domestic Box Office on
the first day of its release on Friday with its occupancy ranging
between 70% and 80%. The Abbas-Mastan-directed action thriller witnessed
a big jump in its business on Saturday due to Republic day holiday. It
showed further improvement on Sunday.
The much-hyped and much-awaited film Race 2 has collected Rs 51.35
crores nett at the domestic Box Office in the (3 days) first weekend and
fast heading towards Rs 100 crore mark. Its breakup is Rs 15.12 cr on
Fri, Rs 20.72 cr on Sat and Rs 15.51 cr on Sun. It has beaten the first
weekend collection record of Saif Ali Khan and John Abraham's big hits
like Cocktail (Rs 36 crores) and Housefull 2 (Rs 43.5 crores).
However, Race 2 is set to become the first Rs 100 crore grosser movie in
2013. Will it cross this mark in the first week? Trade experts say that
usually, the business of a movie drops by 50%. If this Race 2 also
stick to this rule, it will not be able to cross this mark. It might
achieve this magic figure in the second weekend.
Stay locked to this space to know whether Race 2 crosses Rs 100 cr mark
at the domestic Box Office

After 'Race 2', Ameesha Patel is looking forward to her upcoming film, 'Shortcut Romeo'
Ameesha Patel is back to her happy successful zone. After getting an amazing applause from audiences for her role in Race 2, her focus is now on her next release - Shortcut Romeo. Excerpts from the interview:
Tell us something about your next film Shortcut Romeo?
It is ready for release in April and I'm very happy with the way the film has shaped up. My character is totally different from the bubbly girl in Race 2. It's a very hard and strong character.
People have loved your look and character Cherry in Race 2?
Touchwood.... I couldn't have asked for more. When Rameshji narrated me the script I loved my part and I knew no matter what the length will be I know I will stand out and people will love my character. I'm so grateful to all my fans for making me feel this way.
Your look is the talk of the town and your face is on hoardings all over.
Yes... once again touchwood... I've been getting loads of compliments and I'm trying to do my best.

Yes... once again touchwood... I've been getting loads of compliments and I'm trying to do my best.
What has suddenly made Ameesha this sexy, hot girl?
Kuunal Ghoomar, my business partner, has a vision about me and feels there has been much more to me then what I have shown people where my looks and talent is concerned. He now is working on my attitude and role in our home production as well where I will be playing a total bitch.
You have bounced back big time and with four releases in 2013 you must be feeling on cloud nine?
Yes, it's a great feeling after a long break and I'm all charged up and I feel as if I'm making my debut all over again.
According to sources your film Bhaiiyaji Superhit with Sunny Deol also is an out-and-out entertainer?
Yes... it's an awesome script and I'm so excited about the film and it's Sunny's first double role as well.
No for sure but trust me 2013 will get my dues and I will hit back hard
You always are surrounded with controversies? How does u feel?
Well all I can say is when you make people talk about you means you're on the correct track. So actually I'm happy that people waste their paper or pen or time on me. It actually makes me feel I'm affecting them
In an industry like this without any godfather or hero-boyfriend has it been an easy journey?
No, it hasn't been at all, but yes I have been lucky to have some huge hits. People still remember my films that 10 years back have done R 200 crore business.
The support from some very close friends has helped me to come till here and of course my friend and business partner Kuunal who believes that I have a long way to go. Kuunal is a super positive man and has a vision that he feels will take my career to the top and God willing, I'm already seeing the results.
Kuunal feels that Ameesha can be far sexier and a much more serious actress, where content is concerned than the kind of films that have come. He's working on some really dark roles for me as well. God has been very kind and I'm looking forward to this year.
Is Ameesha Patel heading back to the top spot? Is that your goal?
To be honest my goal is to do great work, which I deserve and work hard on them and of course with Kuunal beside me I'm sure we as a team are here to shock lots. The best of Ameesha is yet to come...
