Not as bad as Salman or SRK and can act but not in the same league as KH or ML. Other choices could have been Saif or Aamir for that role.
They really shouldn't be compared. Not about this movie in particular (havent seen drishyam) - while Kamal is an actor par excellence, Mohanlal simply blends in naturally eliminating the need to act.
40% doesnt sound encouraging .. hopefully it picks up through the weekend.
Will be watching this evening ..
agreed, he's not on par with some of our legends but certainly he's a very good method actor. while he does 50% commercials he also does 50% social films (art etc). if anyone doubt his acting credentials they should watch sathyagraga, rajneeti, company etc (the ones i watched). he acts at so ease..
^ While I agree on the part that their work in Drishyam/Papanasam shouldn't be compared, I feel it is okay to compare their overall body of work as actors.
Crowds should be coming in since the wom is good. One of the problems here is that no one actually expected Papanasam to release so close to the heels of Uttama Villain.
how it is doing in Box office
* Kindly avoid advice "Box office is not important , quality is important .." I am aware of it :)
US collection as per many sources is below average. Even in India it hasn't really set the box office on fire I guess
PS: I meant the premier shows collection
In singapore the booking is not that great ..probably two reason ..UV effect and Remake
Anyway I booked on sunday.
