Disney family title Lilo & Stitch and Paramount action film Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning square off at the UK-Ireland box office this weekend, in what exhibitors will hope is one of the highest-grossing weekends of the year.

Both titles are opening wide, and have built interest with extensive marketing campaigns and two days of previews, from Wednesday 21.

Box office takings are not expected to crack the weekend of July 21-23, 2023, when the Barbenheimer phenomenon brought in £29.4m from Barbie and Oppenheimer alone – the only occasion when two films have taken more than £10m on the same weekend in the territory.

As many other star-kid hopefuls before him, Karan learnt the introductory ropes as an assistant director to Sangeeth Sivan for Yamla Pagla Deewana 2.

With the opening weekend of ‘Yamla Pagla Deewana 2′ not really setting the box office on fire, there was a scare factor around the film nose-diving in the weekdays. Fortunately for the makers, the results weren’t as bad as it seemed back then as the days to follow were reasonably okay. Yes, it was ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ which was still earning better but the Deol flick managed to keep it’s head over the water. Well, just about, since at the end of the first week, the collections were around 35 crores which are on the same lines as what ‘Yamla Pagla Deewana’ had gathered two years back.

However, difference between the two films lies in the overall word of mouth. Part one was largely appreciated while part two is mainly enjoying patronage in single screens. With quite a few number of films arriving week after week from this point on,...

Film: "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2"; Cast: Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Neha Sharma, and Christina Akheeva; Director: Sangeeth Sivan; Rating: ** - a 'torturous' joke.

It is awfully painful to see the iconic Dharmendra, who has acted in several imperishable comedies during his heydays, being reduced to a mere parodic shadow of his old flamboyant utterly unaffected self in this cheerless travesty masquerading as a comedy.

If you are one of those who thought the first segment of this farcical franchise was painful and laboured, then wait till you see what the sequel has in store. "Yamla Pagla Deewana" appears decidedly desirable.

The Deols hit the jackpot, of sorts, with Yamla Pagla Deewana, their second success after Apne. The film brought them back into the game once again and made them a commodity to reckon with.

Bollywood Summer has begun. If Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani continues to create and break records, the Deols too can expect a record start for a film of theirs with Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 arriving this weekend. The buzz is good, the hype has been just right, the songs are reasonably popular and the look is good. Moreover with the leading ladies Neha Sharma and Kristina Akheeva adding on to the glamour quotient, a ‘masala’ package for the entire family is in the offering.

All of this means that Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 would embark on a safe start for itself and with a huge release to boast of, anything over an average of 50% all India opening would be good enough for the film to gain momentum over the weekend. Of course a film of this genre also relies a lot on the word of mouth as the comedy has to really work.

Mumbai, May 20: Despite an over two-decade stint in filmmaking business and quite a few hits to his credit, director Sangeeth Sivan calls himself a struggler in comparison to his filmmaker brother Santosh Sivan.

Son of filmmaker Sivan, he is active in the Malayalam movies since 1990 and is known for making films like "Yodha" and "Nirnayam". He is equally well-versed with Bollywood, thanks to his Hindi directorial ventures "Zor", "Kyaa Kool Hai Hum" and his forthcoming "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2", coming out June 6.

"He (Santosh) has reached a point where he does not have to do films for a living. He is in a place where he only.

Mumbai, May 14: All films should not be measured with the same yardstick, feels director Sangeeth Sivan, and suggests that those who don't have an appetite for over-the-top comedy should avoid "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2" (YPD2).

He says every film is different. For instance, his "Kyaa Kool Hai Hum", produced by Ekta Kapoor, was a sex comedy and he feels that critics shouldn't have compared it with a family entertainer.

"I had a bad press for 'Kyaa Kool...' I don't know what all names I was called. My only point was that Ekta and I were clear that we are making a sex comedy and not a 'Ramayan'. It was not a family entertainer..

Keeping in line with the sequel trend the Deol family is all set to bring out a follow up to their successful family comic caper Yamala Pagala Deewana, Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 (Yes, definitely not the most original of sequel titles). Sangeeth Sivan directs the sequel and music has been composed by Sharib-Toshi (Jashnn), with an additional track by Sachin Gupta (Mere Dad Ki Maruti), and lyrics has been written by Kumaar (‘Dilliwali Girlfriend’ – Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani). High on Punjabi flavour, as predictable, one expects the tracks to fair far better when put in context of the movie that promises to be one hell of a crazy roller-coaster ride.

Two singers who need no introduction, Shankar Mahadevan and Sukwindar Singh in the company of newbie Sanchita Bhattacharya open the album with the Title Track. The song, which would otherwise be quite enjoyable, suffers from being over programmed. Never a...

Film: "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2"; Music Directors: Sharib-Toshi; Singers: Rahul Seth, Sanchita Bhattacharya, Sukhwinder Singh, Shankar Mahadevan, Mika Singh, Shreya Ghoshal, Sonu Nigam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Diljit Dosanjh, Sachinn Gupta, Dharmendra, and Suzzanne D'Mello; Rating: **1/2 - high on Punjabi flavour.

If the theme of director Sangeeth Sivan's forthcoming movie "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2" has a strong Punjabi flavour, its soundtrack is high on the same too. Keeping in sync with the theme, composer duo Sharib-Toshi has embellished the five tracks with loud beats and entertaining music.

The album makes an impressive.

Mumbai, May 11: After working with Deols in "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2", director Sangeeth Sivan wants to restart "Cheers" with them.

A sequel to 2011 hit comedy "Yamla Pagla Deewana", "Yamla Pagla Deewana 2" stars Dharmendra and his two sons - Sunny and Bobby.

"I was working on a film with Dharamji and Bobby called 'Cheers'. Then I was asked to do this ('Yamla Pagla Deewana 2'). I would like to have a re-look at that film," Sivan told Ians.

The director would like to revisit "Cheers" script and said that he will "add some new elements in it as it has been two years since we wrote it...If it still inspires all of us,.

Mumbai, May 9: Starting his career with Malayalam cinema and making films like "Vyooham" and "Snehapoorvam Anna", Sangeeth Sivan got attracted to Bollywood because of its wider reach and bigger budgets.

"I never dreamt that I will come and make a Hindi film. I was attracted to it as it gives you a far bigger scope," said Sivan who entered Hindi films with Sunny Deol-starrer 1997 movie "Zor".

"Due to my small market in Malayalam cinema, I had a very small budget to try out new things. Hindi cinema always was a space where there was much more money involved," he added.

Talking about the difference between the two industries,.

The music launch for Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 was a star studded affair that included stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Akshay Kumar, Juhi Chalwa, Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D’Souza all dancing to the beats of the upcoming film. Of course stars Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, were there along with Anupam Kher and Johnny Lever who also star in the film! Music for the comedy was composed by the duo Sharib & Toshi
