But we are already into the next quarter, and it is looking so very exciting thanks to two huge movies that are releasing in the next three months – SS Rajamouli’s mega budget Baahubali 2 and Salman Khan’s Tubelight. While these are most likely to dominate the box office , we have other interesting movies too that could surprise us at the ticket windows. Here are 10 movies releasing this quarter in order of their release dates
Begum Jaan
Cast: Vidya Balan, Gauhar Khan, Chunky Pandey, Pallavi Sharda, Vivek Mushran and Naseeruddin Shah
Scheduled release date: April 14
The Bollywood remake of the acclaimed Bengali movie, Rajkahini, Begum Jaan narrates the woeful tale of a brothel that came in the way when India and Pakistan were drawing their borders. Boasting of a fine ensemble cast and Vidya Balan at her best, Begum Jaan has intrigued us with its plot and captivating trailer.
Noor
Cast: Sonakshi Sinha, Purab Kohli, Shibani Dandekar and Kanan Gill
Scheduled release date: April 21
A movie adaptation of the popular ‘Karachi, You’re Killing Me!’, Noor has Sonakshi Sinha in the lead. The movie has made some significant changes from the book, most prominent being changing the setting from Pakistan to Mumbai. Noor looks like an interesting woman-centric entertainer with an interesting female protagonist. Also, watch out for the cameo of Sunny Leone.
Baahubali 2
Cast: Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishnan and Sathyaraj.
Scheduled release date: April 28
The biggest movie of the year releases this quarter, and we will finally know why Kattappa killed Baahubali. The trailer has already made things very interesting, and the VFX looks mindblowing. Don’t ignore Baahubali: The Conclusion as just ambitious Telugu movie; this is Indian cinema at its grandest.
Sarkar 3
Cast: Amitabh Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Manoj Bajpayee, Amit Sadh, Yami Gautam and Ronit Roy
Scheduled release date: May 12
The maverick Ram Gopal Varma finally completed his trilogy with Sarkar 3 releasing this May. The trailer has been dark, bleak but really good. Abhishek Bachchan’s character might not be returning this time, but Amitabh Bachchan looks quite powerful than ever. With Big B’s brilliant form at the box office and the huge appeal in the brand name, Sarkar 3 looks to be that one hit RGV’s career has been longing for a long time.
Meri Pyaari Bindu
Cast: Parineeti Chopra and Ayushmann Khurrana
Scheduled release date: May 12
Clashing with Sarkar 3, at least till the time this piece is written, is this breezy romcom from Yash Raj Films. From its trailers and teasers, Meri Pyaari Bindu looks like likeable that can be easily digested by our light-fare loving audiences. Parineeti Chopra makes her singing debut here, and the video has already won her lot of admiration.
Half Girlfriend
Cast: Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor
Scheduled release date: May 19
If you aren’t satisfied with your fill of romantic fare after watching Meri Pyaari Bindu, then there is Half Girlfriend that is releasing a week after. An adaption of Chetan Bhagat’s bestseller by the same name, the movie is directed by Mohit Suri, and tells a story of friendship, infatuation, separation and reunion. Both Arjun and Shraddha play basketball players in the movie. Expect some really good songs in this one.
Atithii In London
Cast: Kartik Aaryan, Paresh Rawal, Kriti Kharbanda, Tanvi Azmi and Sanjay Mishra
Scheduled release date: June 2
The first Athithi movie was a surprise hit, and was a well-intentioned comedy aimed at the family audiences. The sequel is now arriving, with the action (and the farts) now shifting to London. Paresh Rawal is still bothering hosts with his intrusive but good-intentioned nature, however, Ajay Devgn and Konkona Sen Sharma won’t be there at the receiving end this time. Instead, we have Pyaar Ka Punchnama fame Kartik Aryan and Raaz Reboot fame Kriti Kharbanda as the young couple bothered by an unwanted guest.
Raabta
Cast: Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon
Scheduled release date: June 9
Are they dating? Or are they not? Sushant and Kriti might not be in any mood to answer this, but the curiosity about their rumoured relationship has already piqued people’s interest in their upcoming movie. Not many details are available about the film, apart from the fact that it is a passionate love story and that it is directed by Saif Ali Khan’s former associate, Dinesh Vijan.
Bank Chor
Cast: Riteish Deshmukh, Vivek Oberoi and Rhea Chakraborty
Scheduled release date: June 16
The much-delayed comedy from YRF is finally making its ways into the theatres this June. Bank Chor was supposed to be Kapil Sharma’s Bollywood debut, before he quit the project and went to do Kis Kis Ko Pyar Karoon, and the makers replaced him with Riteish. It will also be interesting to see both Riteish and Vivek Oberoi in a movie outside the Masti franchise.
Tubelight
Cast: Salman Khan, Zhu Zhu, Om Puri and Sohail Khan
Scheduled release date: June 23
The quarter will end with what could be this year’s biggest hit in Bollywood, unless that record is decimated by Salman Khan’s own Tiger Zinda Hai, that will release in December. This is Salman Khan’s third film with Kabir Khan, and their previous two collaborations have been blockbusters. Tubelight is a love story set against the backdrop of the Indo-China war, and also features a special appearance by Shah Rukh Khan.
