This week all eyes were on the Hollywood superhero, Superman Returns which released in India with dubbed Hindi, Tamil and Telugu versions apart from the English original with 300 prints. This is termed as Warner Bros. Pictures India's principal release till date.
But the film failed to evoke similar excitement as seen with our Bollywood Superman Krrish. The opening response is poor and distributors are expected to suffer heavy losses. The length is said to be the main bane. The running time of the film is 2 hrs and 30 minutes.
The thrill and super action is restricted to 20 minutes. Between the first timers, Hrithik Roshan succeeded in whipping Brandon Routh with his super powers.
But the arrival of Hollywood superhero has succeeded in reducing the number of shows of Krrish. It is said that the shows went down from this week all over; especially the multiplex cinemas.
