Big Weekend- Across the World




It's the weekend that many moviegoers and film buffs have been waiting for.  Personally, I'm not a big fan of the Star Wars series, yet i'm probably the only one of the few that doesn't care for the movie.  Millions of people around the world are jumping with joy as J.J. Abrams taking the director's seat from Lucas.  
For the record, I consider Abrams to be one of the best directors of my generation. This man has proved himself over and over and I have no doubt that he's going to kill it with the Force Awakens.  
As huge Star Wars is, Bollywood is becoming a force itself, and fans of Bollywood movies are not only the great people of India and Pakistan, but from all over the world.   




This weekend, the King of Bollywood- Shahrukh Khan is returning in "Dilwale" with co-star and love interest from the classic Bollywood movie "Dil Wala Duniya le Jayenge". Kajol and Shahrukh are the equivalent of the Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan onscreen couple.  SRK ( nick of Shahrukh) and Kajol bring magic to the screen for the bollywood lovers.  




 But the fight doesn't stop here as on the other side of the ring comes the magnum opus " Bajirao Mastani" directed by the highly acclaimed director - Sanjay leela Bhansali.  Bhansali is known for taking it to the next level with each of his movies.  This director is synonymous with grandeur and style, and his films are always larger than life.

Bajirao vs Dilwale? Can Bhansali take SRK's star power and give it the 1-2? Yes, I think Dilwale has a killer combo yet early reviews state the movie lacks substance and Bhansali's Bajirao has nothing but substance!  But, let's not forget that SRK and Bhansali battled it out a few years back with SRK in Om Shanti Om and Bhansali's Saawairya and SRK hit it out the park!

Check out the trailers below for both films- what are you thoughts?
