Yash Raj are now getting really desperate

With the consecutive flops of Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, Laga Chunari Mein Daag, Aaja Nachle, Tashan and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic, I think Yash Raj will be seriously rethinking their next few movies. Until they come up with some new gimmicks to make a film work, they’ve decided to maybe go into the filmi business. That is, they are now going to buy films from other producers.
So the first movie to go on sale is Karan Johar’s new film Dostana, that stars Abishek Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra and John Abraham. I guess Yash Raj are hoping that the K-Jo connection will be enough to make a film a hit…I guess they could try that, but here’s the list of gimmicks that didn’t pay off.
Jhoom Barabar Jhoom: Throwing together 2 A-listers and 2 B-listers is not a good combination. They are all annoying!
Laga Chanari Mein Daag: How many hits can one girl churn out? So much pressure on Rani.
Aaja Nachle: Bringing back an old Bollywood actress? Nah, that doesn’t work either.
Tashan: A new couple dragging in the publicity for their new movie. That backfired badly.
Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic: Rani doesn’t have the magic, Saif doesn’t have the pyaar.
Guess how much Karan sold Dostana for? A measly 50 crore rupees. Yeah, other studios offered to pay much more for it but I guess Karan decided that he still owed the Chopra’s his friendship.
