Box-office blues!
The box-office continues to look for that elusive hit. This Friday saw three releases -- Hyderabad Blues 2, Chale Chalo: The Making Of An Epic and Shikaar.
Nagesh Kukunoor's follow-up to the simple yet humorous Hyderabad Blues had an earthy charm but failed to lure the audiences.
Satyajit Bhatkal's documentary on the making of Lagaan didn't find any takers either.
Ditto for the obscure Shikaar.
Note: Films are ranked according to their release dates.
