Well, Bollywood has not just come of age, but it's obviously revelling
in it, too.
One can easily make this claim judging by the popularity of Dhoom
2, which debutted at number 17 in the USA. Considering that this
is the third largest opening for any Bollywood film ever, the Indian
film industry has a lot to feel excited about.
This is also the largest opening for a non-Shah Rukh Khan film.
New York Times reviewer Rachel Saltz wrote: "The pleasure
principle is palpable in the giddy, slick Dhoom 2, a satisfying
examlpe of the new, thoroughly modern Bollywood". Ms Saltz
also gushed that though the film represents new-fangled Bollywood,
it's old-fashuioned star power is what animates and elevates it
above its occasional narrative flaws.
