In reel life, Abhishek Bachchan’s character Vishnu Kamat is killed in the new Hindi film Dum Maaro Dum.

In real life, Abhishek Bachchan is forever getting kicked at the box office.

And the trend seems to be continuing with Dum Maaro Dum’s ho-hum BO numbers.

Helllloo, is anyone surprised?

Not us.

After all, this is Abhishek ‘Flop‘ Bachchan’s movie.

Here’s how Dum Maaro Dum fared at the U.S. box office vis-a-vis a few recent Bollywood films:

Dum Maaro Dum Review – Third Rate Trash

With our hearts in our mouth, we gingerly stepped into a theater on the East Coast to watch the first show of Dum Maro Dum.

Given Abhishek Bachchan’s pitiful record at delivering entertainers, our caution and hesitation was understandable.

Except for us, the 106-seat theater for the opening show of Dum Maaro Dum (directed by Rohan Sippy) was empty.

With fries from Five Guys in hand, we sat and prayed for a miracle.

Alas, after sitting through a 2-hours and 10-minute ordeal we regret to say that this time too Abhishek Bachchan has delivered a dud.

The Verdict
Folks, Dum Maaro Dum is utter Garbage with little to recommend it. Continue reading »

Folks, Abhishek Bachchan’s Dum Maaro Dum has received a poor response from the U.S. audience.

The response was pitiful for the opening show at a theater on the East Coast with 98% of the seats remaining empty.

Yes, we ( i.e SI) were the only members of the audience.

Did we tell y’all that today is a holiday here (because of Good Friday) and yet there were no takers for Dum Maaro Dum.

Anybody surprised?

After all, the movie has already received poor reviews from a bunch of critics.

If there’s one thing that critics can be sure of with an Abhishek Bachchan movie lately, it’s that they’re garbage.

The Bollywood buffoon’s latest crap-show Dum Maro Dum released today and movie critics are already panning it.

Here’s a sample of reviews for Dum Maro Dum:

IndiaFM:

DUM MAARO DUM lacks dum….the content fails to hold your attention after a point [towards the second hour specifically]. The writing gets muddled in the post-interval portions,….There are portions that put you off….that remain unexplained [... Besides, the pre-climax as well as the penultimate moments are a major letdown. The drama in the concluding reels, in fact, is prolonged for no reason.....That's not all, even the elimination of the all-powerful drug kingpin by an inconsequential character seems ridiculous. Also, the suspense just doesn't work and nor does it create the desired impact [the twist in the end is quite an anti-climax].

NDTV:

This is one film that should soar but sadly it never quite takes flight. The problem is the writing…..the narrative slumps in places, the plot has loopholes and the characters just aren’t convincing enough to grab you. Continue reading »
