After a string of comedies in 2007, it has started raining action flicks this year.It's time for some DHOOM 3 and a lot more as Abbas Mustan turns to some serious action with RACE.
A high adrenalin ride which comes with actors jumping from 20 floors, fast moving cars tumbling on highways, aerial stunts being the order of the day and one lover boy (Saif Ali Khan) getting an image makeover, RACE is already carrying great reports. With hot bods like Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif and Sameera Reddy going all out to soar temperatures, RACE is creating some heat already en route to its release this Friday.
Meawhile Yash Raj Films who started it all with DHOOM have yet another 'masala' action film, TASHAN, ready for release.
Though Saif Ali Khan is the common factor between TASHAN and RACE, presence of a certain Akshay Kumar has further made a bigger difference to the prospects of this first Yash Raj release of 2008. The production house is looking for a successful box office outing, especially after no-show of LAAGA CHUNARI MEIN DAAG and AAJA NACHLE. TASHAN seems to be a definite shot in the arm as it arrives on 25th April.
Music by Vishal-Shekhar is much in demand too as an impatient wait begins for its late March arrival. As per insiders, the music is something to be watched out for and is all set to give tough competition to RACE which is ruling the charts. Meanwhile Vishal and Shekhar too seem to be all set to have a super-successful run continue from 2007's OM SHANTI OM to 2008's TASHAN!
