The spread of tarot cards clearly indicates that 2008 will be a year of passion. Themes of love, changing traditions, career and dreams will rule. Subjects like coping with personal loss or the underdog’s victory will attain unprecedented popularity. Comedy will be an integral part of all these subjects but 2008 will definitely not be a year of mindless spoofs or gag comedies.

Hello Darling could turn out to be a surprise hit. The timing of its release will be of utmost importance. The release should be properly planned and calculated and the project will definitely rake in money and new opportunities for everyone involved.

Golmaal Returns

Producer Shree Ashtavinayak
Cine Vision
Director Rohit Shetty
Cast Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Shreyas Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor

Golmaal Returns could face delays, thanks to stars and their tantrums. Rohit Shetty will bear the brunt of all that stress, but he might find time to fall in love with someone during the shoot of the film. This attraction will be very short-lived but will drain him emotionally. Golmaal Returns will be made on a lavish budget so Shetty will have to ensure decent returns. A soft-spoken young guy or a shy girl might be the surprise package of the film.
