Well, we are not playing any guessing games here but simply talking about the importance of three films in Aby's baby, Abhishek Bachchan's career, all starting with the alphabet, D. The first of the three was Goldie Behl's DRONA, which has already released and is unfortunately on way to acquiring a disaster status. So, we will not discuss that. We would rather focus on the two other very important films on which rests the hope of reviving Abhishek Bachchan's career.The second and most promising of the lot is Karan Johar's Tarun Mansukhani directed romcom, DOSTANA, in which Abhi teams up with the coand#150;star of his first superand#150;hit, DHOOM, John Abraham. Trade is upbeat about the film as its promos have certainly managed to arouse the expectations of the common cinegoer, especially the youth, at whom DOSTANA is targeted. Handsome hunks John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan and not to forget, the junior Deol, Bobby (in a very special appearance), along with the ravishing Priyanka Chopra, will try to lure the audience to the theatres. Another plus point of the film is its music by Vishaland#150;Shekhar, which is already getting popular. And naturally DOSTANA being a Karan Johar film there is no doubt that it will be distributed and marketed and most importantly hyped well!
The last of the 'Dand#150;Series' is going to be Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's DILLI 6, which pairs Abhishek for the very first time with Anil Kapoor's beautiful daughter, the SAWAARIYA girl, Sonam Kapoor. Once again expectations are bountiful from DILLI 6 as this is Rakeysh's next after the critically acclaimed superand#150;hit, the iconic, RANG DE BASANTI. The film looks good what with (additionally) veterans like Waheeda Rahman and Rishi Kapoor present, as was evident from its first looks of the Taj shoot.
So, lets hope that the remaining two films of the 'Dand#150;Series', DOSTANA and DILLI 6, succeed in giving Abhishek's career the much needed boost after the recent setbacks.
