RA ONE The Next Avatar for SRK
August 27, 2011
After Titanic, James Cameron spent twelve years of his life into making a masterpiece like Avatar. Shahrukh Khan may not have spent as much time but he has come close by waiting for six years before Ra One could become a reality. Now that countdown has begun for his sci-fi superhero flick to arrive, film critics are wondering whether the results would indeed match up to huge expectations. Shahrukh has never spent so much time working on a single film. Yes, he generally works on one film at a time and at maximum may have two of his films release in a single year. However unlike an Aamir who may spend on Delhi Belly three years before arriving with final cut, Shahrukh isn't as patient.
He would rather move on much faster though he has made an exception with Ra. One. It is his very own Avatar.
He could well be right here. After all it was exactly six years back in August 2005 when Shahrukh Khan had given a go-ahead to director Anubhav Sinha for making Ra. One. Now that Ra. One is ready for release and that too in 3D, expectations are more as the film's budget is said to have been in excess of 150 crores while audience too has woken up to VFX laden masterpieces like 'Avatar'.
Reviews verdict till Diwali 2011 when the film releases
