| This week’s three new releases, `London Paris New York`, `Paan Singh Tomar` and `Will You Marry Me?` went the expected way and failed to achieve anything significant on the opening day. As per early reports, the word of mouth for `Paan Singh Tomar` is good and there are chances that this hard-hitting biopic may see a turn around in it’s fortunes. As for Ali Zafar’s `London Paris New York`, it has appealed to a small section of the multiplex frequenting audience at the `A` centres, and the collections may well grow over the weekend. The Aditya Dutt directed `Will You Marry Me?` was dead on arrival and has little hopes of survival. |
