| From this week not only will the IPL matches take away the audience to the stadium, glued to their TV sets but even cinemas will be telecasting the matches live on the big screen. Amidst all that macho man Sunny Deol teams up with super actor Irfaan Khan and National Award winner Konkona Sen Sharma in `Right Yaaa Wrong`, this week’s major offering from the Ghai stable. Friday will also see Moser Baer Entertainment Ltd.’s `Hide And Seek` and the new cast venture, `Trump Card`. It is but obvious that `Right Yaaa Wrong` will be the front runner as compared to the other releases. |

Last Friday`s `Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?` saw the best start, though it ranged from dull to average. But the good thing is that due to the positive word of mouth, the film picked up over the weekend with each day showing a marked improvement over the previous one, leading to a healthy 3-day collection. The film is poor in the Overseas.

From the other releases Studio 18’s `Road, Movie` got positive reviews but a slow start, and given the fact that it was released selectively, nothing big is expected commercially at this stage.
