The Countdown Begins
Hope you all had a fantastic Xmas and the Jolly Bolly Santa was good to you. He was to us ...we are having a fantabolous time sitting in for Nihal you guys have had us in stitches - hope you are enjoying the shows! So what are your New Year's resolutions?
Raj's Resolutions: Get a SRK six pack, trunks like John's and go topless for the summer! Predictions; Neil Nitin Mukesh will make a breakthrough and Akshay willΜύ outshine both Aamir and SRK.
Pablo's Resolutions: Get an Aamir eight pack and hairdo. My predictions are that Harman will finally make the grade after Love Story 2050.

Raj'sΜύFive Worst:
-
Drona
-
Abhishek Bachcan plays a rather grumpy superhero
-
Kay Kay Menon was apparently the most expensive villain in Bollywood, he wasn't worth it!
-
Priyanka Chopra learnt Ghatka for her role as Drona's bodygaurd, what a shame her hard work didn't pay off and make the film a hit.
-
Jaya Bachcan plays Drona's mother.

Hansika was 19 when she was paired opposite Govinda!
-
Karzzz

Another remake, another flop.
-
Himesh tries to take on the role of Monty which was once played by Rishi Kapoor.
-
why did they bother? Even the extras looked bored.
-
Mere Baap Pehle Aap
-
Akshaye Khanna, Genelia D'Souza and Paresh Rawal plus Priyadarshan equals FLOP!
-
Maan Gaye Mughal e Azam
-
It was supposed to be a comedy.
-
Starring Malaika Sherawat, Rahul Bose and Paresh Rawal.

It spoofed Mughal E Azam a bit.
Μύ

Madhur Bhandarkar's take on the Fashion Industry.
-
Priyanka Chopra plays a girl from Chandigar who moves to Mumbai with dreams of becoming a supermodel!

Pablo'sΜύFive Worst
-
Mehbooba
-
Manisha Koirala's return to the big screen proved to be a bit of a damp squib really
-
Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgan couldn't save this one.
-
I think they may have been going for a romantic epic, but this was disaster of Titanic proportions! The ship not the movie!
-
Woodstock Villa
-
Sikandar Kher didn't really make a mark in Bollywood, unlike his filmi parents.
-
So it was meant to be a thriller but it didn't really thrill me.
-
Neha Oberoi, Arbaaz Khan and Sanjay Dutt also made appearances.
-
Gumnaam
-
Starring Mahima Chaudhary, Suman Ranganathan and Dino Morea.
-
It was supposed to be a mystery...the only thing that's mysterious about it is why it took four years to get a release, and it so wasn't worth it!
-
The film follows an aspiring actress...
-
The action sequences in this flick were choreographed the same guy who worked on Dhoom.
-
Mere Baap Pehle Aap
-
Directed by the one and only Priyadarshan.

-
Karzzz

The Remake of Subash Ghai's Rishi Kapoor starrer.
-

If you were Dino Morea and was reborn as Himesh wouldn't you feel a bit cheated?
