| The week will see the debut of Poonam and Shatrughan Sinha’s son Luv. The film in question is the Raj Kanwar directed, `Sadiyaan`. Giving company to `Sadiyaan` will be the Dimple, Nana and Shetty starrer, `Tum Milo To Sahi` and Bipasha Basu`s `Pankh`. Unfortunately none of the three releases are expected to make much of an impact! |

In the wake of the IPL fever, the only film that has succeeded is Dibaker Banerjee’s `Love Sex Aur Dhokha`. The film has done especially well in Delhi-U.P. and East Punjab. The low budget (below 2 crore!) film is an unquestionable success and is a profitable venture for all concerned.

Vikram Bhatt’s `Shaapit` could not quite impress. The film will be lucky to even recover its costs.
