After a month of smaller though well executed projects doing very well, the much awaited return of the biggies on `Eid` turned out to be an anti–climax. The first release, Sanjay Gadhvi`s Dutt, Imran and Minissha starrer `Kidnap`, released at 82 cinemas of Bombay (thru Studio 18), had a good opening day. In other circuits the opening was very good in some circuits and ordinary at others. Trade predicts that due to shoddy making, `Kidnap` will see a quick and substantial decline. And that is how it has happened. The film is decent in the UK.

The second release, the Goldie Behl directed Jaya, Abhishek, Priyanka and Kay Kay starrer `Drona`, released at 86 cinemas of Bombay and suburbs (thru Eros Multimedia Pvt. Ltd.), had quite a good opening. Outside of Bombay the opening was very good in U.P. and fair to good at others. Trade predicts that owing to its high cost and bad word of mouth, `Drona` will entail back–breaking losses to all concerned. The crash in collections can be clearly seen. The film has also disappointed in the Overseas.
