Rohit Jugraj`s `Super Star` could not impress even the critics (not to talk of the audience!). The movie looks destined to lose all over.

Whatever hopes the people associated with `Sunday` had, vanished because the Rohit Shetty directed film crashed by nearly 60 percent in its second week. The Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Irrfan Khan and Ayesha Takia starrer adds to the list of failures for 2008. The only consolation is that `Saunday` has fared much better than Ajay Devgan`s last release `Halla Bol` in the UK

Bollywood`s last couple of hits, rather blockbuster hits were the Christmas week releases. The first of those, Aamir Khan`s directorial debut venture, `Taare Zameen Par` manages another good performance during its latest outing. The Darsheel, Aamir and Tisca starrer has performed extremely well in the US but has under-performed in the UK.
