The distributors know exactly that this film can break even only if it's released in the max. nr. of theatres(45, I doubt whether there r 45 'A' class theatres distributed across Kerala unless released in the same city several times) and ride on the initial pull! So naturally Dubai would be the largest gross collecting film so far in the initial days, but the success of the film depends on how good the film is..ennalum vellithira e padam 2 divasam konde mega-hit aakkiyathe oru mega sambahavam thane..LOL

A freind of mine(great MAMOOTY fan) told me that DUBAI is the worst/sick MAmooty movie he have ever seen in his life. He went to see the movie with lot of expectations on the first day itself.

after watching rakshasa rajavu, I felt almost the same. Mammotty is doing anything in malayalam movies, so I am glad he doin more tamil than malayalam. njan othiri tamil kaanarilla, but I bought Anandham though, I heard it was a hit movie. Mammoottyikku pattiya roles karachilum pizhichilum thanne aanu, like arayannangalude veedu.

I don't know how good the sites like weblokam.com, sify.com,indiainfo.com etc. are..they all seem to be pro-Lal, but I know that vellithira.xxx is a THARA site quoting CHANDA magazines like 'crime' and seems supported directly by Mr.Muhammad Kutty..even rakshasa rajava is called a mega-hit of the year..break-even enkilum aayal mathiyayirunnu..

The fact is Dubai, has flopped, think of it as simple maths. How is any malayalam movie going to recover with a budget of close to 6 crores, even if they were lucky they might have made break even, if it had astounding collections, but this is not the case the movie has not had an astonishing opening, so the movie will be a loss.

Dubai is the worst Mammoty movie I have seen...
- From: Raj (@ cm-24-169-220-23.nycap.rr.com)
on: Wed Nov 14 08:06:07
DUBAI doesn't fit the normal expectation of a Malayalam movie. I don't think it was intended to. People that are into the normal conventional malayalam movies probably will not like it at all. It's more in the league of "New Delhi."
It is a great effort by Joshi, with good dialogues, good technical values(better than some recent hindi movies), and overall great direction altogether.
If someone says it's a flop, i know it's only because they're not used to seeing a trendy movie such as this. If you wanna check out something fresh, though, DUBAI is the ticket.

I want to know who is behined this mega site like Weblokam etc. Is it u or the "Women Eater".

on: Sat Nov 24 12:41:16
I think Praja is all abt hype, may be it'll be another disaster like Dubai, although I'm a big Mohanlal fan..Joshi is very good in terms of his selection of scripts and artists..one thing I've noticed abt his films recently is his poor make-ups..In Patram, Lelam etc. one clearly gets the picture of artificial blood made and depicted on certain scenes so badly,same applies with make-up on the face,if noticed clearly..is the veteran director getting aged to notice these kinda details..?

it is a flop.... not even managed to get the half cost.All the hype abt the film gone...even people wont think about spending this much amt for a malaylam film in near future.
Not only the cost .. the story line too is weak for this film

even dir*joshi said that people think that dubai was a real expensive movie....the only expensives were by the traveling and the accomadations for so many people in dubai...joshi said the places,cars,everybody's dresses and everything were free......the producer b.b k menon got 35lakhs from magna sound for the audio...30lakhs for world video right...20 lakhs for satlite right...he got about 3 cores from the distributors(kavyachandrika).....joshi said ifthe producer was a money man then the movie should been released in 2000....who made the problem ..the producer....i saw the movie and the camera work,sets,dances were superb..dts sound system..the songs by girish--vidya team perfected with the movie......the only thing that gad wrong with the movie was.....evrybody expected big from from renji panicker...but he disappointed the people...
