This week sees an interesting clash between Yash Raj`s Bipasha, Ranbir, Minissha and Deepika starrerr `Bachna Ae Haseeno` and EROS International`s Rumy Jafry directed Amitabh, Salman and Priyanka venture, `God Tussi Great Ho`. Given the promotion and the hype one feels that the Siddharth Anand directed `Bachna Ae Haseeno` may just about score over Afzal Khan`s `God Tussi Great Ho`. Both the films will get the advantage of three additional holidays during the week. However, there will also be a strong competitor in the form of Vipul Shah`s week old, `Singh Is Kinng`, which is expected to again show a strong performance in the holiday weekend.

The Anees Bazmee directed `Singh Is Kinng`, released at 96 cinemas of Bombay and suburbs through Studio 18, saw a very good start. Its opening was outstanding in East Punjab, Delhi and parts of U.P. and ranged from good to very good at other places. The film has netted around 27-28 crores during its first weekend in India. Trade feels that the Akshay-Katrina starrer `Singh Is Kinng` has the merits to score, especially in Northern India (East Punjab and Delhi-U.P.) because of its Punjabi flavour but given the high selling prices, the sailing may not be as smooth in the other circuits. The film is expected to be a runaway hit in the Overseas, especially UK and Canada.

Pritish Nandy Communications` `Ugly Aur Pagli` failed to appeal to its target multiplex audience, who found the comedy quite crude. Thankfully, given its reasonable budget and price the the Mallika-Ranvir starrer will get to a below average status from here.
