As the year 2010 ushered in, we have been bestowed with a number of films of varying genres and stars. In fact, SRK was part of the 1st important film that released this year ‘Dulha Mil Gaya’. However, Fardeen Khan and Sushmita Sen made sure that the film met with a disaster in the box office register.
But, SRK’s biggie ‘My Name is Khan’, so far, has been the biggest hit of 2010. Even though, a controversy and war with the Shiv Sena hoodlums did help the film, surely, it was the return of the King Khan that brought fame and money to the Karan Johar caper.
Not to mention, the coming back of Kajol did make the fans storm into the theatres. For a lover of love-stories, there is nothing better than a Shahrukh-Kajol rom-com. And, though the film was targeted on the relevant social issue of ill-treatment of the immigrant Muslims, it was the subtle romance between the single mother Kajol and an autistic SRK that held the maximum appeal and magnetised audience into the theatres.
Though, subsequent films like ‘Ishqiya’ and ‘Love, Sex aur Dokha’ were hailed by the critics for putting up a brave face, none could jingle the cash box as vigorously as did MNIK.
So, for the moment, 2010 has belonged solely to the Bollywood Badshah.
