Kambakkht Ishq: Falls short of expectations
NEW DELHI - The box office is on a roll after a long lull thanks to Kabir Khan’s “New York” that got a good opening at the box office. Now the Hindi film industry is pinning its hopes on Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor’s much-hyped romantic comedy “Kambakkht Ishq” to keep the cash registers ringing. Made at a budge of Rs.40-45 crores (Rs.400-450 million), the film was extensively shot at Universal Studios in Hollywood as well as in Italy and Mumbai. This Bollywood extravaganza also has much publicised cameos by Hollywood stars like Sylvester Stallone, Brandon Routh and Denise Richards.
