| With the board exams in full swing, no major releases are scheduled for this week. In fact the next biggies are Bipasha`s `Aa Dekhen Zara` on March 27 and Nagesh`s Akshay Kumar starrer `8X10 Tasveer` on April 3. |

The most promising project of the lot are Madhavan`s chiller flick `13B`, followed by the comic flick `Dhoondte Teh Jaoge` and Manish Gupta`s delayed venture the Sushmita Sen and Randeep Hooda starrer `Karma Aur Holi`. None of three are expected to excite the box-office much, especially the much delayed `Karma Aur Holi`.

As expected Ajay Chandhok’s Arshad Warsi, Ashish Chaudhary, Aarti Chabaria and Udita Goswami starrer `Kisse Pyaar Karoon?` saw a poor opening across the board and declared a failure.

Rajat Kapoor`s `Siddharth-The Prisoner` had a horrifyingly poor start, wherever it released. The film is a trade disaster.

The bad patch for the industry continues as Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra`s Abhishek-Sonam starrer `Delhi 6` dropped markedly after a fairly good weekend (especially in Delhi-NCR). Given the high costs, trade predicts that the UTV venture will entail substantial losses to its makers, who are also the worldwide distributors. By and large the performance in the Overseas has been below par barring to an extent US.
