Phantom-Hogi hit ya jayegi Pit

Let's begin with trailer release of movie Phantom. The trailer seems to be quite an average one and with delay in release of the movie, it's BoxOffice numbers are further dented. My rating for the trailer was 2 stars out of 5.
Now i would emphasize my discussion on the Director of the movie, Kabeer Khan. If  i'm not mistaken, he started his journey with NewYork. The movie was about 26/11 attack on U.S. and its after effects on the Muslim community. The movie starred John, NeilNitin, Irrfan and Katrina, as expected it flopped.
Then he made Ek Tha Tiger, with Salman and Katrina(again), again India-Pakistan melodrama, this time it was a Super Hit, courtesy Salman and YRF banner. After this he made the current BlockBuster, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, again Salman was there. Kabeer Khan had to part ways with her favorite Katrina, as Salman didn't wanted her in the movie. Now he has made Phantom, with Saif and again Katrina. Similar drama of India and Pakistan, again. The movie has no buzz in the market, as the trailer are very ordinary and people are fed up of similar plots in all the movies of  Kabeer Khan. Today's audience is very smart and they exactly know, what to watch and what to avoid. So Mr. Director, Salman won't come all the time to bail your movies out, time has come, so please look out for some fresh and original scripts.
If we talk about the star cast of Phantom, the main leads are Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif.
Saif's career is not at all safe these days. His last outing, Hamshakals, was a washout at the BoxOffice.
It was a torture of a movie. Sajjid Khan(director) is finished after this blunder.
As far as Katrina is concerned, she depends on a Hit Hero and Phantom has, to be really honest, a Flop Hero.
All said and done, with repetitive story line, average music and star cast, Phantom's chances of succeeding at the BoxOffice are very bleak.
See you tomorrow with My Review on Phantom.........
